        It’s more that it’s entirely irrelevant and adds absolutely nothing to the discussion.

        It might have landed if she had been at all relevant in any even somewhat recent time.

                I interpreted your comment as the article not specifying which Schumer and you picked out a famous Schumer not associated with politics as a little bit of fun.

                I could be wrong … I think many people have been dog-piling her comedy for a while and I think others thought you were dog whistling.

                I mean, this is just coming from someone on the outside of this.

            Amy Schumer, while she does have bad comedy, is constantly the target of reactionaries and chuds who think all women aren’t funny and point to her as justificatiom for their shitty worldview. The entire thing has been beaten to death for over a decade. Making fun of her, and by extension women comedians, was barely worthy of breathing slightly faster through the nose almost a decade ago, now making fun of Schumer is even more stale than her comedy.

              for like the 50th time, I wasn’t making fun of her and I wasn’t making a joke. the fact that everybody read it as a very specific attack on her is fucking bizarre. this entire thread feels like I’m on Reddit

            Oh I agree there are plenty of women who are funny, and Amy Schumer is not particularly funny. But Amy Schumer is also the one that dumbasses point to to be all “hur dur waminz isn’t funnee because shoomer is bad!!”
