I guess I have to get this out of my system before things get any worse. I keep remembering a really old article on well-known #Canadian #comedians in the #US in, I think, Newsday in the 90s. I just recall it ended with a quote from Howie Mandell on whether Canadians are inherently funnier than Americans:

"I don't think #Canada has funnier comedians than any other state."

Of course, with Donny Dorko, they're not jokes, they're trial balloons. Ugh.

Marc Maron has called out comedians with podcasts who joke around with white supremacists and fascists on their shows. Maron has had his own podcast, WTF, since 2009. “Even though I do not do a political show I have been very clear in my specials and on the podcast that I believe, and have believed for years, what is brewing in this country is an American fascist movement rooted half in grievance and half in Jesus and enabled by tech oligarchs and an inundation of propaganda from many sources,” he wrote in a blogpost. Here's more from @Variety. Read the full blogpost at the second link.
