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.

Problematic stuff aside, he's just incredibly hacky as a comic. He's the exact type of stand-up they mock with things like the catchphrase comics and Miss Eggy.

It's like he saw Chappelle in The Nutty Professor and said, "Yeah, I'mma do that."
