I really don't like ANY observational comedy about identity. It's just.. shit. It's stupid, it's predictable, and it's so very, very tired. And comedians who do it seem to so often think they're "edgy", like being a mindless prejudiced jackass makes them somehow bold and manly and admirable. Because that's one of the things that pisses me off most about prejudice. So often, including with such alleged "humour", it's not that people have come to stupid conclusions about groups of people but they're just thoughtlessly regurgitating things without actually thinking about what they're saying whatsoever. People not thinking about things pisses me off even more than people thinking about things and coming to stupid or horrible conclusions.
