n his latest set, Ansari suggests that collective anger has overcorrected; now, rather than hold power to account, it targets the slightest and least consequential controversies. Why is everyone weighing in on this shit? Ansari asked of the Twitter users who flocked to debate whether an American teen-agers choice of prom dress constituted so-called cultural appropriation. Everyone weighs in on everything. They dont know anything. People dont wanna just say, I dont know. The comedian positions self-righteous mass outrage as one pole in a political climate built on extremes. At least with the Trump people, he joked, I kinda know where they stand. On the other side, reacting to our current Administration, are zealous and performative leftists who cant seem to resist competing with one another in what Ansari calls Progressive Candy Crush. https://www.newyorker.com/culture/c...against-extreme-wokeness?mbid=social_facebook --- If you read this signature, then that meant that I had control of what you read for 5 SECONDS!! ...
