SNL Is A Joke, And Not In The Funny Way

Well guys, today we're going to talk Elon Musk and his apparently controversial Gig hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend.
Now, I don't know about you guys.
I'm perhaps a little older than some of you, but I'm old enough to remember when Saturday Night Live was actually funny.
And the fact that having Elon Musk on there is somehow controversial is truly amazing.
And it shows you how far comedy has fallen, how pathetic our society has become, sort of pursuing the wokeness.
I mean, think about it. This is maybe the richest man in the world at the moment.
Someone who's putting things into space as a private company, able to do what these governments of the world have been trying to do for a long time at a fraction of the cost.
I mean, someone who wants to talk about, you know, sending people to Mars.
You know, honestly, one of the great minds of modern time.
What's his crime?
That he's controversial, that he doesn't just mimic The leftist talking points at all times.
He doesn't just copy them blindly because he's able to actually think outside of the box and come up with his own solution.
Again, I don't think he's a conservative.
I think he believes in things like free speech, which most Americans used to believe in.
But, quote, due to the controversial nature of the host, it's understood that the SNL cast members aren't being forced to appear on this week's episode.
They don't have to go to work because they're worried that Someone may hurt their feelings.
Imagine what like the 1970s SNL cast back then, who knows if they've gotten woke since then, pressured by Hollywood and the other clowns.
Imagine what they would say.
About people too afraid to show up to their jobs to work with someone because maybe they don't like them.
And again, it's not like Elon Musk, some sort of right wing activist.
I don't, you know, I think he's probably just a free speech guy, believes in general freedoms.
I'm not sure where he even stands politically.
I don't think he's said too much about it.
I think the left tries to make him out to be some sort of right wing activist.
Simply because he does talk about free speech.
He does talk about the censorship.
He is pushing the envelope in terms of the thought and process and the dialogue that we should be having as a people.
That today is controversial.
That he would question the woke powers that be is controversial.
Man, it's a joke.
I imagine that the 70s cast of SNL would kick today's SNL's ass Just for being crybabies and snowflakes because it's sort of amazing what one of those great institutions and how far they have fallen.
That today, comedy is essentially censored, in some cases outlawed in the sense that if you go to a certain place, you'll just get canceled.
It's ridiculous.
It's absolutely insane.
So let's see what happens.
Hopefully some of these people actually man up, stop their crying and actually show up.
Again, I don't know if it matters.
Maybe he can be the catalyst like he is for so many other things of change to actually make Saturday Night Live funny again.
But I don't know, guys.
It may have fallen too far.
Let's see. It should be interesting.
