    ‘I love Puerto Rico and vacation there. I made fun of everyone,’ the comedian said

    This is no different than “I have a black friend, I can’t be racist.” Absolute clown.

    You can always tell who a conservative is, they are the one who is always cruel. They think cruelty is funny. They are psychopaths.

    He thinks that simply saying shocking/shitty things makes him ‘funny’ and ‘a comedian’

    Look, I love an offensive joke. I also think there’s a time and a place, and a political rally full of people who struggle with fact vs fiction probably isn’t the best place for it.

    While I do like jokes, even offensive ones, it often surprises me that so many American comedians seem to struggle with:

    • Knowing that their audience isn’t just people in the room with them
    • Understanding that at a mainstream level you can’t just cater to one crowd.

    I’ve always found Tony Hinchcliffe to be a strange comedian. Sometimes he’s funny, and some of the people on Kill Tony can be great (especially the guitar guy from a while ago), but many within the “Rogan Circle” just seem to struggle with going from small shitty bars in Texas a decade or two ago to owning podcasts with thousands of viewers.

    “I made fun of everyone.”

    Did he make fun of Trump supporters? Or… white people in general?

    It’ll be very funny if this costs Trump the election. Half a million votes in PA is pretty important, buddy

    Why do they always go to the tampon. Do they think women’s hormones are cause by the tampon? The tampon just holds blood. Do they think women can’t handle that much blood? What next, bile? Shoot, bring all the humors in here.

    “Ya’ll are too sensitive, this is clearly an excess of black bile. Vance, get your dick out of the couch and grab the leeches!”

    Change your tampon?? These “masculine” little boys still give out 8th grade level insults. Only one it’s hurting is them. Get new material. They wrote better racist jokes in the 50s chump

    Also enjoy your 5 minutes of fame ya nobody
