They have not killed comedy. The pushback has been glorious.

Yeah, it's like what jokes exactly have they killed...? Because you can still tell those jokes, it's just that you probably won't like the kind of audience it attracts.

His comedy sucks. That’s what’s killing comedy.

This guy never seemed funny to me, like it was just annoying to see his face on seinfeld.

Being kinda funny only gets you so far. I’m sure Jackie Gleason felt the same way a few decades after honeymooners left the air.

There's only one Jerry Seinfeld that I recognise

If that’s all it took to kill comedy, it probably wasn’t worth saving.

When your brand of comedy deals heavily in the prejudices of a time (and most do) be prepared to adapt when times change. If you can’t or won’t, your career ends. That’s comedy, Jerry.

"Extreme left"? I don't think he's been on Lemmy.
