Buckle up, this guy gets away with everything imaginable.

Minhaj, born in 1985 in the United States to Muslim Indian immigrants, made a name for himself on The Daily Show and his own Netflix comedy series, Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj. He won a Peabody Award in 2018 for the short-lived (2018-2020) Netflix series.

Minhaj relays several stories during his show. To name a few, he has claimed that a white girl refused to go to a high school homecoming dance with him, tells the tale of a “brother Eric” who infiltrated a mosque for the FBI, and even told the harrowing tale of an envelope with “white powder” in it spilling all over his daughter.

He also tells the story of Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner arrogantly sitting in a chair reserved for a formerly imprisoned Saudi activist at a Time 100 gala in 2019. He now admits that never happened.

How is that comedy?

In an interview with the New Yorker, Minhaj explained that he tells all these false stories for “emotional truth” and that none of them really happened to him.

The comedian went on to say that, in his opinion, the “emotional truth is first. The factual truth is secondary.”

Classic.

The magazine had spent some time trying to track down some of the people that Minhaj mentions in his “emotional truth” stories on stage, but it was unable to verify most of the claims he makes. The magazine also discovered that some of the people he mentions in his act have tried to get him to stop using their names and stories, but Minhaj has ignored their requests.

So not only does he lie, the people who he lie about get harassed and he ignores their requests to stop publicly lying about them.

The “white girl” who supposedly left him standing at her front door and ditched him for homecoming, for instance, says that no such incident ever occurred and that she had turned him down many days before when he first asked her to the dance. She also says that she and her family frequently face online attacks when Minhaj fans link her real identity to the fake anecdote.

The magazine also found out that the “brother Eric” who Minhaj claims infiltrated a mosque never did any such thing. Indeed, the man said he was in prison in 2002, the year Minhaj said he was infiltrating a mosque for the FBI. Minhaj admitted that the whole story was a fiction made up for his show.

The story of his daughter being exposed to a “white powder” sent to him in the mail, supposedly causing him to take the girl to the hospital, also turns out to be fake. Minhaj says that he did receive an envelope with white powder in the mail, but he just threw it out and his daughter was never exposed to it.

BULLLLLLSHIT. What a joke.

The magazine also found instances of alleged sexism in the writers room of his TV series, Patriot Act. Several female researchers who were hired as “fact-checkers” for the political stories Minhaj used as fodder for his comedy said that they were eventually shunted out of the show and that Minhaj only relied on male writers.

Surprise Surprise. How come Louis CK is banned but this guy gets all his mistakes hidden?

In fact, several female employees filed a lawsuit against Minhaj and Netflix for gender discrimination in a case that was eventually settled out of court. The lawsuit was only revealed after Netflix canceled Patriot Act.

Makes sense.

Here is the cherry on top:

Despite the flood of lies. all personalized as if they actually happened in his life, Minhaj told the magazine that he does not regret his actions.

“I don’t think I’m manipulating. I think they are coming for the emotional roller-coaster ride. To the people that are, like, ‘Yo, that is way too crazy to happen,’ I don’t care because yes, f* yes—that’s the point. It’s grounded in truth,” he insisted.**

“I think what I’m ultimately trying to do is highlight all of those stories. Building to what I think is a pointed argument as opposed to a ‘pointless riff’ of jokes,” Minhaj explained.

Its really amazing how we are supposed to just accept that comedians make up stories for the humor, which is fine enough, until its time for real shit. When we are supposed to stop laughing and take it seriously and its a super serial soapbox of a political movement.

Except when it turns out to be exaggerated or outright lies, then we are supposed to just let it go bro. Political activist until Funny Man, just like the Daily Show taught him.

Whatever suits them in the moment. Carlos Mencia needs to get cancelled out of a career because he lied about being Mexican (and Joe Rogan's besties said he stole shit), but Amy Schumer admitting to raping a guy we are just supposed to let go (and Joe Rogan is besties with her so she can steal shit all she wants).

This is what they all do, comedian or not. If you have trouble believing in widescale global conspiracies or entertainment bias against white conservatives, just remember that all of big tech, HR departments, government at all levels, bureaucratic offices, university faculty, Hollywood production studios, news media, NGOs - and if you live in a big city - police departments, grocery stores, and the fucking post office are staffed by people like Hasan. No bad tactics.

I've seen a lot of people say some really dumb things in my life. But hearing someone say the equivalent of "I'm a sociopath that will say and do anything for money and fame. I regret nothing" and say it quite well, too.

That's a new one for me.

He looks like every arrogant Pajeet 2nd gen immigrant with the weird superiority complex about being Indian. Obsessed with grooming, looking like he has money, etc. I've met dozens of guys like this.

They all use Indian dating sites (because interracial dating is something that only whites have to do), and they'll do and say anything to get ahead.

Minhaj often talks about his immigrant upbringing and the social alienation that sometimes came with being a racial minority in his home town. The central story of his first Netflix special, "Homecoming King," which was released in 2017, is about his crush on a friend, a white girl with whom he shared a stolen kiss and who accepted his invitation to prom but later reneged in a humiliating fashion; Minhaj showed up on her doorstep the night of the dance, only to see another boy putting a corsage on her wrist. Onstage, Minhaj says that his friend's parents didn't want their daughter to take pictures with a brown boy, because they were concerned about what their relatives might think. "I'd eaten off their plates," Minhaj says. "I'd kissed their daughter. I didn't know that people could be bigoted even as they were smiling at you."

But the woman disputed certain facts. She told me that she'd turned down Minhaj, who was then a close friend, in person, days before the dance. Minhaj acknowledged that this was correct, but he said that the two of them had long carried different understandings of her rejection. As a "brown kid in Davis, California," he said, he'd been conditioned to put his head down and "just take it, and I did." The "emotional truth" of the story he told onstage was resonant and justified the fabrication of details. "There are so many other kids who have had a similar sort of doorstep experience," he said.

The woman also said that she and her family had faced online threats and doxing for years because Minhaj had insufficiently disguised her identity, including the fact that she was engaged to an Indian American man. A source with knowledge of the production said that, during the show's Off Broadway run, Minhaj had used a real picture of the woman and her partner, with their faces blurred, projected behind him as he told the story.

The woman said that Minhaj had invited her and her husband to an Off Broadway performance. She had initially interpreted the invitation as an attempt to rekindle an old friendship, but she now believes the move was meant to humiliate her. Later, she said, when she confronted Minhaj about the online threats brought on by the Netflix special—"I spent years trying to get threads taken down," she told me—Minhaj shrugged off her concerns.

Now do an exposition on those frauds Riz and Nanjiani. The more they complain about racism and white people, the more guilty they are.

What a ridiculous looking clown with his neon teeth and dark skin.

Well, that just means that the next times he or someone he knows comes forward and says he was a victim of an attack, we will just assume that time, too, is just a farcical lie. Something about the ungendered underaged announcing lupine entities.

"Comic".

Taqiya South-Asian lying to degrade and humiliate White people.

''Diversity'' is poison.
