12807693, I don't like most jokes about African or Africans Posted by dafriquan, Mon May-18-15 10:05 AM
whether its from Jamie Foxx or Patrice O'Neal all the stereotypes of primitive, civil war, click sound language stuff.
alot of it is downright offensive to my sensibilities.
and yet i don't want them to stop doing it if they get some "good material" out of it.
comedy will offend somebody (fat and poor people used to be the default safe joke zone) i just don't believe in sacred cows in comedy.
louis ck worked the hell out of the angle. the source material is questionable but i can respect the craft of working through it.
