He's pulling the "people have no sense of humor" shit. See though, when you make race jokes it's up to the race you're talking about to decide if you're being offensive or funny. And we agree he's being racist to us. When a conservative comedian who hates brown people makes these "jokes", we know they're not really jokes

“These people have no sense of humor.

"These people"

The uber I took home on Saturday had a right-wing radio show playing, and it was the same deal.

Saying horrible things under the guise of "humor" but blurring the line just enough that the audience might think it's real.

I try not to give negative reviews. I stick with either a positive for something truly outstanding or nothing at all (my default). But an unsafe driver gets a negative review because I want to protect other passengers. Similarly, I'd ding a driver who had political or religious garbage playing. They should create a neutral environment.

Yeah, I considered that, but I don't listen to right wing radio. In the moment it felt important to hear that so I could gain a better understanding.

If your not rich, white or straight They don't like you. There. I saved you having to listen to any more.
