Bill is a class act. One of the best living comedians.

Bill Burr is great and I don't think I've ever met a guy who didn't like him. Good politics too, and says them like a normal fucking person who can make a case without being annoying.

Some of the weirdo ass lemmy computer janitors in this thread seem to dislike him. Which means he’s probably on the right side.

Some idiots on the right think bill bur is in the middle, how many times does he have to say fuck trump for those morons to understand. He deff not a establishment dem but he is deff a progressive

[–] big_slap@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think they say that because he portrays himself angrily, and people on the right can really relate to that.

"She went on ESPN and said 'I don't understand why female athletes don't make as much as male athletes' and all these men had to sit there pretending to be dumbfounded. I'm sitting at home screaming at the TV 'BECAUSE YOU DON'T SELL ANY FUCKING TICKETS!'"

--Bill Burr.

Not exactly a bastion of blue haired "My pronouns are emdash/interrobang" leftism, is he?

Reminds me a bit of George Carlin, especially in his later years. George Carlin once did a bit about groups of people he would like to see killed in various ways, to include gun enthusiasts, helicopter parents and people who made small purchases on a credit card.

He might appear to be in the middle, because he also goes after Democrats. And while they might not be nearly as bad as the party of American fascists, Democrats are very far from being perfect. They have at most a handful of decent high profile people. Bill Burr is just reasonable and calls out assholes, no matter their affiliation.

And he did marry a black woman so he is far from conservative.

I was going to say the same thing, but then JD Vance is married to a brown woman and that doesn't seem to mean anything.

As someone who listens to his podcast regularly, he's a borderline socialist at this point, but he has blinders on when it comes to "both sides" bullshit.

It's probably because he doesn't want to alienate half of his audience, which I get. But it's super frustrating to hear because he's right there.

Bill is a real American. I like that he's so anti-racist.

He married a black woman. You should hear his stand up talking about going to her place in Harlem. lol

If they ask Bill, which the media does, he'll tell you, "Why the fuck are you asking me?" He knows his political views are and should be meaningless. He's a comedian. The news media is responsible for the mess we're in, stop asking comedians what they think and stop white washing fascism.

Everyone says that, not just Burr
