    We’re not great currently, but we are leaps and bounds better than Saudi Arabia right now.

    Are you saying all entertainment folks in the US should just stop working? That is neither feasible or possible for non A-listers.

    Edit: apparently some one is ok with already struggling artist starving. Hope you have the same energy when it’s your turn to refuse work.

    Edit 2: suck my cat’s barbed dick.

      Don’t invent the scenarios, none of the comedians in questions are “starving”.

        That pedicab driver also lives in South Florida.

        Where in the fuck do you recommend he moves too?

        It must be nice to cast judgement on others…

        You’re a bad person and you should feel bad.

        Oh yeah. Definitely take a different view of Bill Burr.

        But there’s a local one legged pedal cad driver who I personally know just trying to make ends meet.

        Should he suffer as well?

      No, you are not. You have fascist brigades roaming around terrorizing minorities, you have innocents being taken to illegal prisons, you have a worldwide media apparatus boosting fascism all over the world, 20% of male black US population goes through jail (where slave labour is legal) at some point of their lives, you are intervening in regime change and upholding fascist puppets like Milei or Bolsonaro, you start war after war after war, and last but not least, you’re materially and diplomatically enabling the genocide of Palestinians by the fascist ethnostate of Isntreal. The US is not “leaps and bounds better than Saudi Arabia”.
