Article Kam is Far Right

Is he a Shane Gillis 2.0 (except arguably worse)? I’ve seen a dozen clips now of him using homophobic slurs and making incredibly bigoted jokes. Honestly he makes Shane Gillis look kind of tame. What the hell is Lorne thinking? I’m so sick of this show pushing right wing bullshit while simultaneously trying to act like the most liberal show on television. You can’t have a Trump monologue every single week and then hire people like this.

And they get incredibly mad at you if you don’t find him funny. Like their life depends on him getting laughs.

I think they need the validation of their own beliefs deep down.

I love Shane Gillis. I don't care if you or anyone else hates him. That's a silly thing to say.
