“The dismissal of my profession and livelihood is probably most clear when looking at the fall and comeback of Louis C.K. When C.K. finally confirmed a long-suspected rumor of sexual misconduct two years ago — that he’d masturbated in front of a number of female comics without their consent”
Consent is literally the most important factor of this whole #MeToo movement, so how the fuck can they get this wrong like it’s some minor detail? You just know someone somewhere at Vox knew that wasn’t accurate but allowed it to be published anyway.
The CK thing ids so funny because he asked for consent every time, and a couple times the women said no and walked away. That's a hilarious scenario. And that is 100% the sort of thing that would happen on his show, he is the guy who would awkwardly ask some 32 year old woman to jerk off in front of her and she says "no thank you" and he's just left standing there in his long sleeve sweatshirt.
No it's because Louis had so much power over the women, the act of asking for consent was literally sexual violence in and of itself. How can a woman say no to a man in a higher position than her? Everyone knows women are too weak to make their own decisions.
We all remember how powerful Louis was back in 2005. Hot off the success of "Pootie Tang" and just one short year before his immensely successful single-season run of "Lucky Louie". A man that powerful would intimidate any woman. Plus, if they said no then their careers might have been ruined (translation: if they said yes their careers might have improved because someone successful would owe them a favour).
Anybody else get a few paragraphs into these articles and feel like they've had a lobotomy? It could just be chronic alcoholism but every time I read a Vox article I find myself dizzy and disinterested.
When C.K. finally confirmed a long-suspected rumor of sexual misconduct two years ago — that he’d masturbated in front of a number of female comics without their consent
without their consent
Wow what a lying cunt. Wait for her to start fishing for pity points saying that the alt right started harassing her simply for criticizing Louis.
Stop talking about him like he's a frothing serial rapist for Fucks sake. In his "crimes", did he even touch the girls? Didn't he only ask if he could jerk off in front of them? Every fuckin media site out there is intent on misleading people on the CK situation and it pisses me the fuck off
Imagine being in the same room as someone that squirts jizz on the floor you sexist bigot. One of these brave ladies could have slipped on her way out!
One of his "crimes" was jerking off while he was on the phone with some woman. How could she even know for certain that's what he was doing? Maybe he was just at the supermarket reaching for an item on the top shelf and the groaning she heard was just him stretching and reaching for it.
And even if he was jerking off over the phone, how could that possibly make you feel unsafe? It's hilarious, not scary.
Everyone keeps talking about safety. What fucking safety are they talking about? Did we all miss something and Louis actually has full-blown AIDS, which is contagious somehow, and he's just pulling his dick out and spraying cum on women in the audience specifically?
This comic is just projecting her own failures. Half the article is her whining about how unsuccessful her career has been. She is upset that Louis is able to bounce back from his career being ruined while she is relegated in obscurity.
Exactly. She wasn't actually there, so she can't talk about how being there made her feel. Instead she says the staff is unsafe, except Luis J. Gomez said NONE of the staff, performers or attendees had a single complaint about it. So there's nothing left to be outraged about, and it's obvious she's just butthurt that people care way more about Louis than anything she ever has done or will do.
I would be less annoyed by this if they would actually fess up and say “he said he asked for consent but I think he’s lying” or “I bet there are more stories out there and odds on favor he didn’t ask for consent in all of them.” It’s still not based on evidence, but they’d at least be being upfront.
But no, they’re literally taking the position of “it’s harder for us that he didn’t do something worse than what he did, so let’s just say that’s what he did.”
I used to work at VICE, I know how this shit works. Monday morning they get in a 'scrum' and discuss what can get the most clicks. It becomes a brainstorm sesh - someone brings up Louis CK, team lead or editor says yes good, good, k who here has done a few open mic sets? You? Ok good, write the story and I will spend the next 3 hours on the title and thumbnail.
metoo failed miserably. They didnt take anyone down, except for Weinstein. Louis is the only big name they can still attack. They’re just trying to keep it going for as long as people pay for column inches.
Feminists and lesbians are comedy cancer, and thanks to our current social climate they're encouraged more than ever to be "comedians." They don't give a shit about comedy.
Dude, real shit. I moved from Florida to Chicago to do standup like some kind of fucking idiot and apparently all those conservative soyboy and third wave feminist "strawmen" are actually real people.
Whatevs, I'm still gonna keep making "jokes" about women getting gross when they turn 30
Open mics aren't exactly as prevalent or easy to get to in Florida, especially if you're broke white trash with no car, and I didn't want to start off somewhere where people move to do standup once they're already good.
Definitely wasn't prepared for how fuckin lame and soft well over half the people are here though, it's absurd. Might have to start journeying to south Chicago to do black rooms or some shit. They're way less gay down there in comparison to the north side
Black rooms are stand up comedy marines. You wanna get good, do those. If you can handle yourself in a black room, you can handle yourself anywhere. I love em, wish I had more of them here.
Louis is a danger to SO-CI-E-TY. Just imagine if YOU had a large peckah pointed at you by a bald middle aged man jerking off feverishly. That shit be scary yo.

Use an archive link - if you give them clicks, it only encourages them.

Ok, so Vox is just publishing lies now.
1 realestassdude 2019-06-26
“Now”? Maybe you hadn’t heard, but this is nothing new.
1 Ralph_Cifaretto 2019-06-26
Gee, it’s almost like if they admit he got consent, it doesn’t seem as much like he did anything wrong. Fucking shameless.

It's interesting how many fat and shitty women get into "journalism," also known as "writing about how people should feel on websites."
1 ScarletNumbered 2019-06-26
She is a comedienne, not a journalist

“Professional Bloggers” should be raped by a pack of Cumia’s.

You might be suprised that she's a rich kid who's parents fund her failing 'stand up'
1 UnclePaulsSoul 2019-06-26
For how empowered women are, it’s amazing they can’t say “No” to things they don’t want to do.

Goddam rich cunt!
1 BroadwayDannyRoss 2019-06-26
They act like he just pulls his dick out in the green room and jerks off for every comic who is on the show opening for him.
1 The_Rev_Al_Jolson 2019-06-26
This dumb gash could use a guy like Louis C.K. to shake his ruddy little pecker at her so she can finally have some validation as a woman.

She went on an elliptical for 10 minutes and then drank 2 bottles of wine and ate a sampler platter by herself.

They try to run but they just stay in place like a cartoon with their feet slipping on the puddle of jizz.

I saw Kath and Anth sitting at a table for 2 in obscurity just last night. They were doing a lot of laughing, but in their eyes it looked like crying.
