Kind of a misnomer to call them comedians since they are not funny.

There are no real comedians out there anymore. The last real comedians are making documentaries about how they are not allowed to be funny anymore. I haven't laughed at a "comedian" for a long, long time. Even, so-called, movie comedies are not actually funny either. It seems that what they consider "funny" is actually people being cruel to one another. Stand up is basically dead.

We have raised a generation of young people who are so "woke" that nothing can be funny, because someone will be offended by it.

How I miss Robin Williams, Joan Rivers, Rodney Dangerfield, and others. The country has become a miserable place when we cannot laugh at human foibles anymore.

Don’t forget Don Rickles. He went places that would likely get him killed nowadays.
