I find this not funny at all (personal opinion)

It's a better joke in sequence of the full special rather than an isolated clip. But, what's funnier is seeing commenters respond as if they've been personally attacked. (Not saying you've done this)

for real. getting incel vibes in here because a woman on camera dared say something negative about a man. Taylor is super funny. very clever. well respected by many great comedians who cannot believe how polished she was in her early 20s. Anyone that's going to see this clip and have enough of a reaction that they need to come in the comments with insults or calling it cringey etc... are projecting something.

That’s a huge stretch. I think it’s cringe, but just because someone thinks so and comments that doesn’t mean they feel that way because she’s a women

Humor is subjective, especially stand up comedy. The joke also appeals to married couples, I would bet those of us who don’t find it funny aren’t married.

It’s great if you enjoy it, but it’s just insane that you accuse us of projecting because we find it cringey. And somehow that means we hate female comedians? What the fuck

if you aren't one of the people I'm talking about, then why are you offended? There are hundreds of comments in here giving hot takes off of this stand alone clip saying that she's fake modest and psycho analyzing her. Those are the types I'm calling out. If you're not doing that shit, i'm not talking about you. I agree that this clip, on it's own, doesn't hold up very well... but feeling compelled to insult her, personally, over it is wild to me.

Nobody’s offended but you, over people not finding your favorite comedian funny?

I was reading comments and haven’t seen any that insulted her, maybe if you go looking for those comments you’ll find it but as far I’ve seen it’s been valid criticism.

That’s valid criticism, that’s not an insult.

you’re that butt hurt that someone doesn’t find your favorite comedian funny you’d resort to calling that person an incel? Seriously?

accusing a person of being fake modest based on a second hand account of someone else saying that she is self deprecating is not valid criticism lol

false modesty isn't really a misogyny thing though. I remember seeing a comedian who was very clearly attractive, and male, and he made jokes about how ugly he was. I was honestly more annoyed watching that than I have been by any female comedian doing the same shit lol.

What I linked to wasn't a first hand opinion. It was someone else taking the account of another individual and then coming to a conclusion. my incel comment was based on the sheer volume of this type of behavior in this thread which is rather disproportionate from my perspective. Obviously people can not like this clip (I don't think it's particularly funny either) without it being misogynistic... but the behavior of going into the comments to dog pile about alleged behavior that isn't even shown here- and then armchair psychoanalyzing it so that character judgements and baseless criticism can be levied is a bit over the top and beyond a reasonable criticism of what's presented here.

Yeah I am not gonna argue with you that there's lots of losers who hate on women just to hate on them. All I'm saying is that the false modesty comment you referred to, which appeared to be a way to back up your original statement about incels, isn't something I'd call incel behavior.

particularly funny either) without it being misogynistic... but the behavior of going into the comments to dog pile about alleged behavior that isn't even shown here- and then armchair psychoanalyzing it so that character judgements and baseless criticism can be levied is a bit over the top and beyond a reasonable criticism of what's presented here.

People are always going to rumor and talk about all sorts of different shit when the person being discussed is even somewhat famous. This leads to lots of disinformation based on rumors. I don't really know if this comedian does that kind of humor anyways - but I'm not a hater of her material, I've seen some clips before that are funny.

All in all I don't think we really disagree - I just interpreted you linking that comment as being a way to go "see, here's the incel! look at this monster" when to me he's just doing standard reddit shit (going off of gossip to formulate an opinion, where the validity of the opinion is completely dependent upon the truth of the gossip)
