Fifty years mainstream comedians had to be squeaky clean. No "offensive" material concerning, sex, bathroom habits, other cultures, etc. This attitude extended to all forms of entertainment. For instance, if a tv show or movie showed a married couples bedroom, there had to be two beds.

Then in came the new comics for which no topic was off limits. The comedy subjects became much wider, the language became more uh diverse i.e. dirtier, and comics had free rein to say just about anything.

So it's curious that fifty years later during this "great" age of liberal comics their intended college audiences will not laugh at anything that does fit into the p.c. world created by liberals. Ironic, isn't it?

That's a good point and brings to mind my thoughts when my college professors were trying so hard to convince us that the 1950's were an 'age of conformity' where everyone had to be quiet and just accept the prevailing orthodoxy, i.e., communists had infiltrated the U.S. government, etc. etc. My response (this was the 1990s was that today is the age of conformity!!!

Nobody can say anything without somebody getting 'offended' by it, and from there the speaker is accused of racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. etc.

The left's response to this? "well, republicans do it too, so nanny nanny boo boo!"

That's doesn't fit into the p.c. world created by liberals.
