I see now in hindsight that he was always anti-white, but I didn't really see it at the time because he was more subtle back then and he also would gripe about the white guilt movies.
I viewed him as one of the lone brave truth tellers, particularly about feminism and women.
What a fall from grace he turned out to be. Brave is not how I'd describe Bill Burr.
I rarely am embarrassed for liking someone. In middle school, I, like all other middle schoolers at that time, thought Dane Cook was hilarious. Now I don't think he's the worst thing ever like he's made out to be, but I can see that it was more about perfect timing with Dane Cook. I was the exact right age for Dane Cook to be hilarious to me. I don't feel embarrassed because I understand the timing.
With Bill Burr, he actually makes you embarrassed you ever recommended him as someone who's "raw" and "tell's it like it is".
I mean it doesn't feel like that long ago I was doing that.
Also the guy who always said the government wants to eliminate people and drastically reduce the population goes all in for the vax and says people who don't get it are conspiratorial and whatever.
Has anyone so blatantly 180'd as Bill Burr?
You may be experiencing some selection bias if your examples are all celebrities, but I can’t say I have enough experience with them to know.
The only person outside of celebrities that I know from Boston is a gay dude who is also a raging liberal. And also white.
