Ricky Gervais Confronts Woke Comedy Dogma | National Review
You can see where real-life Gervais got the idea. On the podcast, he declined to back away from any of his anti-woke jokes, his discussion of the n-word at a comics roundtable, or his insistence that everybody is fair game for mockery. To hold otherwise would be to grant classes of people special protections comedy privilege. He won t do it.
Gervais is occasionally quite funny.
