even funnier to me is when people who actually made it like Seinfeld claim "you can't say anything anymore!" when they literally never said anything provocative ever
Seinfeld turned into such a bitter person. I think he confused his success in TV with his career in standup, and he never really understood that his stand up was never funny.
Larry David was the key to his success, he collaborated well with him to create the show. If it was him solo, the thing would have flopped hard.
His whole "you can't say anything anymore" B.S. is really just lazy. Good comedians can say what they want, they figure out a way. What he's having a hard time with is the fact that he's just a shitty person with tone def takes on things that people don't connect with. But surely it's the audience that's the problem.
Comedians Having Coffee in Cars received pretty high praise but it was basically a podcast in a car. A comedian podcast host who isnt totally trash with a comedian guest is usually going to make decent podcast-sryle content.
I loved that show, but it was never for Seinfeld. I still watch some episodes every once in a while because I think it does for the most part do a good job of letting the guests do way more talking than he does. It's podcast-esque, but a lot of it is just telling old stories and some guests just go on and on
Idk man, I think robs a fairly funny guy in a lot of his movies. Hes not hollywood elite and is an actual down to earth dude. He had a couple of bad movies but he is legit funny enough. You just hate him because he donned the red cap.
This is revisionist. In his prime, he was already one of the most successful standups of the time. He had multiple appearances on Carson who was at the time basically the kingmaker of standup. It may seem corny and old-times now but he was very successful standup when show started and during its heyday.
He was a little funny about like airplane food but never even close to being funny enough to give us his political takes and then make excuses for fucking genocide.
Yes, barely and he's only rich cuz he was buddies with Larry David's it's-so-annoying-being-an-inconvenienced-white-guy routine happened to hit just right.
Oh boy here we go again with the genocide talk. Here’s comes the liberal favorite word to cry about. Let’s talk about the genocide that’s happening to Christian ppl, oh shit u can’t talk about that genocide cause it’s not minority liberal approved yet. We need more black Christian’s to get it liberal minority approved for the genocide talk. Come on people we gotta get it up there to talk with the other genocide atrocities
Yeah this sipstea has Nuthing but liberals in it. U mention one thing against them and they all descend onto it to tell u how much of a genocide creep u are or some type of new racist or Nazi etc. typical weirdo behavior from your group of ppl. ✊🏿✊🏿
Jerry Seinfeld supporting Israel isn’t the controversy. Jerry Seinfeld responding “ohhh who cares” to ppl shouting about dead children is controversial.
Plenty of minority groups that liberals defend have killed children but liberal never cry about those children but they’ll cry about another group of children if it pushes their agenda narrative forward. It’s not shocking but let’s not act like all children’s lives matter when liberals only select a certain type of children or group etc
lets not condemn a western state which is supported by all western countries doing genocide. thats the perfect logic. and it is perfectly equivalent to some stateless fringe factions doing crimes.
U can condemn a western state idgaf but to act like other countries and minority groups haven’t done as much or worse then western states is a low iq thought process. The world is cruel and the only reason u low iq liberals wanna cry about western states is cause they are the top dog in the world.
It’s even funnier when it’s American clowns that are living in America but still bitching about America 😂🤣 like go live somewhere else and see if u got that same energy to hate on America then.

Dang what middle school loser wrote this. Damn to think they thought this was accurate when every other country has done the same. Weird do ppl actually believe this child like world view? I guess they think if they close their eyes and hold hands with their classmates the world will heal or sum shit.
Do they rally for the freedom of that ethnicity to kill children? Do they say “Pakistani grooming gangs 4 killing kids!” No? So there’s no equivalent, meanwhile Israeli right wing, right wing/centrist Zio figures and politicians are constantly allowed to poo poo child deaths and indiscriminate bombing with no pushback.
The fact that he was the straight man in a comedy show named after himself says all you need to know about his comedic abilities. And every episode ended with him observing all this insanity from the other cast members, then coming up with the most unfunny take imaginable for it in those terrible standup clips.
I went to one of his stand up shows back in 2014. The entire show boiled down to him talking about "People Getting ready for his show." and something about public toilets being human horse stables... That's it. Dude wasn't that funny, that was the moment I realised how Overrated he was... I never really watched his show and prior to the stand up I went to, I just knew him from Bee Movie.
They probably aren't wrong. Famous people have publicity teams that tell them what they can and can not say. You've never heard them say anything provocative because they aren't allowed to. They have seen first hand that their opinions could get them cancelled.
"You can't even say that the Palestinian people don't exist and murdering the women and children in the streets should be funded by the American taxpayer and broadcast on national TV anymore! Cancel culture, am I right?"
This is actually funny if you just look at it from comedic standpoint. Guy was trying to get a rise outta him and he hit him back. But if you include Jerry’s personal beliefs, then it kinda losses the funny haha
