Current Events > How does Amy Schumer still have a career when she got caught stealing jokes?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Can she really hide behind "Women are funny, get over it" to compensate for her lack of actual talent forver?

you can ask the same thing about Robin Williams

This topic is sort of a knock off.

Anyway, yeah, her 'Women are funny and I'm their queen" thing is bullshit. Women are hilarious, but she is so fucking far from the first that it's not even funny. It's actually a bit offensive since 90% of her material appears to be stolen, even from better female comedians out there.

I personally don't think shes funny but it always seemed like a lot of comedians like her so they dont trip

Same reason people dont still get on Robin Williams for it.

Anybody remember Carlos Mencia or whatever the fuck it is

Lol he thinks ppl refer to him as, the punisher

because she generates infinite comedy in the form of dumb people being perpetually upset about her, thus bringing balance
---

Because Joe Rogan wasnt the one who exposed her.

Most of Robin Williams act was just him acting crazy and saying the first thing that came to his mind. Everything that came out of his mouth wasnt always going to be original. People dont see that as serious as someone intentionally stealing a joke and putting it into a more structured act.

Affirmative action.

She has deep roots in the feminist movement so if you don't tread carefully, calling her out can get you in serious shit.

Like that kid who was the son of some famous guy. The kid did celebrity interviews, and he made a joke about Amy being a hoe (same thing she always does) and feminists ripped the kid a new asshole, claiming only Amy is allowed to make that joke.

So yeah, she's going nowhere.

Like what?

Also, people who say this tend to just want to throw shade at feminism. What about other comedians that are outspoken feminists? What about the fact that female comedians have been a thing for decades?

You'd be surprised how many bad things a person can do without losing their career

'the rest of the post'

Yeah, because there is a difference between shaming someone for sleeping around and the fact that you have legitimate evidence that they are stealing intellectual property from other comedians.

Joke thievery in comedy is a career death sentence though, at least for male comedians.

Except there isn't. Watch the video I posted, her rabid fans shit all over a kid because she whined he made a joke about her that she makes constantly.

That's her MO. Calling out Amy Schumer publicly right now is like strapping a time bomb to your dick.
