So your concern with my interaction with Legs is your issue alone.

It's curious that you're having to re-word and characterize your own criticism so innocently while wrongly wording and mis-characterizing others' criticism of 2 Dope Queens. You didn't simply say "sounds an awful lot like/borrowed heavily" and no one said they're "winning and I hate it because it's not black enough." The criticisms of the show presented here are more nuanced than you suggest, and most people just said it's not for them... not that they hate it.
Also, you said this is only about their comedy... but now you're back to talking about the backlash again... which is about their comedy AND other things about them on the show, so now you're trying to lie your way out of this hole you're digging. Plus, criticism is still criticism and applies to your "crab in the bucket" philosophy. I'd say your criticism of KRIT was for an even sillier reason that you're saying this one is for. You're being hypocritical and should just support all Black people getting money simply because they're "getting ahead" if Black people NOT doing that is problematic in your view... or was KRIT an easy target for you b/c he wasn't attaining a larger audience due to drawing the white gaze?
Continuing down that road, I'm gonna use the context clue of your comment about Monique's "even smaller" audience to help define what you mean by "getting ahead/winning" and conclude that you mean they have a bigger audience via gaining the white gaze. How that gaze is attained is part of the criticism, and I'd think you'd understand that (but maybe you don't... or will pretend not to, now).

And since you can't seem to engage in a disagreement without namecalling, I notice that you're sincerely immature. You also criticize people for doing the same things you do for even worse reasons, so you're extremely hypocritical.
