I was at a party once and this is right after Trump won the first time. A friend who worked for Nike was giving shyt to another friend who worked for Facebook for working at a place that influenced voters for Trump. It was hot in the news at the time. The Facebook friend shot back about Nike using child labor in 3rd world countries to make their products. While both had a point they also were in the same boat. It just let me know we are all just peons and more likely than not we gotta work for less than desirable entities and do less than desirable stuff to survive in this world. Us workers shouldn't be fighting who is doing the most harm. We should be pointing at those who mandate we do harm just to survive. I got no harsh judgements for any of these comedians and it's pretty dumb they fight amongst themselves about which is a righteous gig. Do what you gotta do to survive. We all just drug dealers destroying the community for personal gain at this point.

Love Dave but one can be against Israel AND Saudi Arabia. They're both conservative repressive regimes using culture to whitewash their public image.

This isn't a "this or that" situation.

And the UAE included among them for their genocidal activities in Sudan

The way I see it, he's an entertainer, that's his job, idc who he entertains. Idk why people hold these folks to such a high standard, that's how we got trump in office, we as a society value people whose main job is acting and frivolously performing too much.

Okay so watched this part in the full stand up on Netflix.
This makes more sense.

This skit was about Bill Maher specifically.
He said he knows Bill Maher for years personally but Fukk Bill Maher.
This is because Maher said it was wrong of him to go to SA.
So it was you talk about the Saudis but you always defending Israel.

Makes more sense now

It's probably only a few countries you can go to where the government hasn't done some recent bad shyt

This was hilarious and brilliant. I like how he landed the conspiracy joke about Nipsey and dr sebi saying he too his friend there and he died 3 months later. Sometimes nikkas just die




That was spooky about the club lights changing to warn people that the feds was there tho

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

I feel like the people that are mad at him for going to Saudi Arabia are also the same people mad at Israel. So that joke didn't hit as hard as he think it did.

With that being said, I really don't give a fukk. Make yo money. I would have probably did it too

Are those people mad at Israel for killing all those Journalists?
Have they spoken up about it?

That's the message here
He doesn't give a fukk about strangers being mad at him
He just needed an excuse to mention Israel's atrocities

 

[Sccit]

SAUDI ARABIA LOWKEY HATES "PALESTINE" MORE THAN ISRAEL DOES

 

[Mr Clean]

Didn't feel like much of a clap back to me. It's not like he went to do a show in Israel too and no one said shyt about that. He could have did better.

Like it was said above, the same people that are against Israel are probably the same people that are mad about him doing a show in Saudi and maybe mad about the Trans jokes to so they don't like him in general.

The special took off when he left the Saudi shyt behind and I'm not even mad at it him doing a show there tbh.

 

[get these nets]

He's a minstrel act.
Sidesteps critcizing his buddy elon musk, even though doge cut govt. jobs on whims, and put thousands of metro DC Black people out of work.
People give him a pass, for some reason

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

There was a better way to make that joke, and to be honest a good amount of the people criticizing Dave for going to Saudi Arabia have plenty of smoke for apartheid Israel

What kind of shyt is this? How is telling jokes in America any different than telling jokes in Saudi Arabia?
