    My mom sent me this and said “must watch”

    My mother is a post-op trans woman btw, and also the most reactionary conservative person I have ever met.

    Is this gonna be another example of conservative “comedy” where they get so mad at their own strawman halfway through the joke that they forget there’s supposed to be a punchline

    I’m not triggered by it, I’m just probably not going to watch it. It’s not like it makes me mad, it’s just annoying. Triggers are totally recognized by the right when it’s a troop being haunted by the ghosts of the children they slaughtered. Safe spaces are easily communicated when it’s your horrible wife interrupting football on the TV.

      Theybreally love giving themselves credit for upsetting people.

      It reminds me of the guy I knew in high-school who would shit his pants for attention. Nobody is impressed, people aren’t even really offended. Mostly they just have contempt for you.

      This is a response I wish more people would ascribe to. It’s often enough to just call something what it is and move on with your life.

    This looks like some shitty low budget comedy from the 2000’s. Makes sense with how that crowd thinks being funny involves repeating tropes from that time period and expecting people half their age to laugh.

    Is Crowder still doing his Chris Rock impression or did he finally learn that Kevin Hart exists?

    written and directed by a guy who’s name is literally Jeremy Boreing, who used to work in Matt Walsh’s podcast, oh he’s the cofounder and owner of the daily wire

    i’m not looking forward to the next decade

    • Saving Christmas

      excuse me, in this house it is called Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas.

      It was directed by Darren Doane and written by Doane and Cheston Hervey, based on an original story by Kirk Cameron.

      The movie stars Cameron as a fictionalized version of himself. In Saving Christmas, Cameron, after explaining his views on Christmas directly to the audience, tries to convince his fictional brother-in-law, played by the film’s director, that Christmas is still a Christian holiday.

      The film received a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It was nominated in six categories for the 35th Golden Raspberry Awards and won four, including Worst Picture. It also became the lowest-rated film on the IMDb Bottom 100 List within one month of its theatrical release, and is now considered one of the worst films of all time.

      Christian complains that several elements of Christmas, most notably Christmas trees, are not biblical in origin. Cameron tells him that Christmas trees were God’s idea since God created trees.

    Plot twist: it turns out they’re all actually trans and the second half is them coming to terms with that while getting out of the weird hole they just dug themselves. That would even be a pretty good comedy.

      Not to make assumptions, I do wonder if any of them have some repression deal going on, I know Crowder seemed to get really in character when he did his cross dressing bits

    • Seriously, the Kavernacles video is full of bot accounts saying “I didn’t know about this until now, thanks!” Like the Daily Wire released a movie the most mainstream it has gone is on left wing reaction channels.

    Recycling the same tired shit that South Park was doing ten years ago. It’s so fucking boring that some peope just want to hear the same jokes over and over and over again.
