Wait, what? Why is that? What did I miss?

He performed at the Saudi comedy festival

[–] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Dammit another one gone. However I still agree with his statements.

[–] Awooooooga@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I remember when he was like "Thank God the guy missed Trump's head" and I wonder if he still thinks that.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think the last comedy special he did was a bigger turn off than his saudi deal to me.

[–] BurgerBaron@quokk.au 1 points 1 day ago

Aye, he lost his mojo.

Comedians Mike Birbiglia, Shane Gillis, Stavros Halkias, Leslie Liao, Atsuko Okatsuka and "Weird Al" Yankovic were invited to perform, but they ultimately declined and spoke out against the event.

Love Weird Al even more. Also:

Okatsuka posted images of the offer she received, which she said included stipulations that the comedians could not perform material that violated certain Saudi censorship rules.[17] Restricted topics included the country itself, its legal system, the Saudi royal family, and religion.

I order you to entertain or else vibes.

I never read the most of this article. Hilarious that Jim Jeffries spoke out before the event saying, “One journalist died. That’s not a hill I’m going to die on.” Then immediately gets sacked from the event.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

At least this is one example where both sides really do suck.

[–] killea@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Shane Gillis declined and spoke out about it? That is quite interesting.

[–] supernight52@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Yeah, especially since he's best buddies with Tony "world's youngest pedophile" Hinchcliffe- I was expecting him to go and be excited about it.

He hangs with literal racists, pedophiles, and nazis, and pretends he's so above all of it. He's so fucking awful.

[–] frog@feddit.uk 3 points 16 hours ago

He would've loved the dress code over there.

Sold out to Saudi oil money
