He's funny and has a large fan base, including me. "Connections," my ass. He is a self-made and promoting comedy and film enterprise.
The level of knee-jerk Jew-hating here is ridiculous and stupid. Do any of you strident haters ever enjoy anything besides tearing everything down and belching bad gas about Jews? I oppose US involvement in Israel's war as much as I hate our involvement in the Russia/Ukraine shitshow and every stinking war since Vietnam, but I choose apolitical entertainment. My criterion is simple--Do I find him funny? Full stop.
Give it a rest. Try to have some fun for shit sake.
I didn't mention him being a Jew. Unless you think the deep nepotism that controls the entire comedy industry is because its also massively overrepresented in Jews, but that's not why I think it would be that way regardless of demographic.
I enjoy plenty of stuff, its why I have a long list of standup comedy I do and don't enjoy (at least half of them Jews and Liberals). And why "I said something OFFENSIVE LOUDLY, also have I mentioned I'm a gross middle aged man" isn't high on the list enough for me to say "oh you get a pass for something other men didn't."
The same way Sarah "FUDGE IS SHIT" Silverman isn't funny, yet has the connections somehow to both continue to be in projects and also be absurdly racist without anyone cancelling her. But I'm sure them being childhood friends, and him thereby being closely connected to Jimmy Kimmel among other big names, has nothing to do with his fame and promotion on every network.
