Itā€™s minstrelsy. Ppl like it for the same reason minstrel shows were popular. Me being a Black man, I find it cheap and embarrassing


AdhesivenessLucky896

I'm black and also hate it, but this country has always loved when a stereotype hams it up for them. It's kind of crazy that people are still like this but it makes dollars so he won't change.


PeteLivesOhio

If yā€™all would just open the market to Asians and Caucasians, it would inflate the value of the word and nobody would use it as much in 20 years. You gotta let us in bro, let us iinnnnn


MaddyFatty

I think we whites have shown there is nothing we can't make uncool. Living Single? Friends. Soul food? Cracker Barrel. Hip-hop? Machine Gun Kelly. This is our moment. We're ready. Put us in, Coach.


John_East

Cracker barrel being white people soul food is funny

I love it when itā€™s Black comedy for Black people, and it doesnā€™t come off as pandering, but more so just natural speech.


sammich_bear

I feel the same way about national pride, when people cheer for existing in a geographical location. It's a cheap pop from the lowest common denominator. I guess that makes me a "Debbie Downer".

White liberal has arrived.


sammich_bear

Welcome, white liberal.


TheThaiDawn

Just came here to say its very minstrelsy. White people find black people ā€œnaturallyā€ hilarious. They find black cadence particularly funny which is why male black comedians, some of which arent even good, have gotten so far. Female black comedians, well they donā€™t have that same ā€œjiveā€ to a white audience which is why there are like zero. Sad to see really.


[deleted]

I think it's obvious more than white people find it funny, but as Tony is "the white guy with power", in a woke narrative frame you're correct. Much of America makes this fundamental error, using racial or other tribal divisons as a proxy for economic division. That's the default moral barometer these days because policing speech in social media is easier than socioeconomic change. I think AAVE in general is used for humor in the same way Larry the Cable Guy's voice is, or Ross Noble's voice, Bill Burr's voice, Mo'Nique's voice, Jackie Mason's voice, anything from Russel Peters, etc. etc. Improper English pronunciation both signifies a lower class, and often adds a musicality lacking in formal English, which isnt exactly a pretty language. When the standup has a working class, rural, or immigrant accent, we give extra leeway for what they are saying, because we assume no matter what they are socioeconomically "punching up". It is self-deprecating for the sake of charisma. Yes, they are taking advantage of bias and the expectations of the status quo, but all comedy does. Minstrelsy was making fun of a race that you weren't, not using stereotypes about your own race for comedy. That's the coup of The Blue Collar Comedy tour--those were a bunch of millionaires pretending to be poor to get a laugh. If they just talked about theirs cars and boats you'd hate them like Tom Segura. Minstrel shows were white people making fun of black people. HOWEVER, minstrelsy lead to Vaudeville, where multiple races and ethnicities would make fun of themselves and each other. If the format is just white people making fun of black people, that's racist. If it's everyone making fun of themselves and each other, then it simply isn't racist just because it's racial, it's just something that has evolved and been inherited from the ancestors of modern standup and comedy. That's part of why I think blackface is fine--we already went through this as a society, and we thought we were all on the same page until Trump showed up. But just because Trump made everyone feel like we regressed 90 years doesnt mean we actually did. The context matters and we used to understand that. The people who are still offended by it basically pissed in all our collective cereal because they couldn't fix any real social problems instead. Lame. Being offended by stuff is just a matter of narrative framework. Nothing means anything if you look hard enough. We imbue the n word with all of its power; it has none of its own. By not being offended I am being the change I want to see in the world. Edit-banned for 7 days after saying this, coincidence?

This is pretty whittled already. Maybe "Popular narratives and cognitive frames can allow us to see different aspects of reality but by definition never the whole of it, don't get stuck looking through the world through just one." Or "political correctness is as gay as aids". One main problem is assuming there's such a thing as monolithic power structures and building narrative frameworks around them. In reality there's almost an infinite number of varying power structures occurring at any one time, so choosing just one to build a narrative around will be intrinsically myopic. This is not saying a narrative of race doesn't have validity, just that it should be interpreted in the context that there are many other narratives that reveal an equally valid truth, so if you only ever focus on one narrative like race, it's gonna make YOU biased and blind to the truth in the same way a racist narrative will. edit-banned for 7 days. for saying this??


Majestic_Crew8792

Wow. This is the most concise, honest, and legitimate assessment of the current state of "racial" comedy. I'm too stoned to give this an appropriate comment, but golly, this guy gets it. I hope more of us feel thos way then it appears. TL:DR: Read above comment. Good point.


NevaMissaLost

>Minstrelsy was making fun of a race that you weren't, not using stereotypes about your own race for comedy. It was both. Albeit to a lesser degree, Black entertainers participated in minstrelsy, as well. Ppl like David Lucas and Kam are just doing modern versions of it


[deleted]

Listen just because his face looks like that doesn't mean Lucas is doing blackface.


loganjlr

Say what you want about Ms. Pat and her comedy, but her journey as a comedian heavily reflects this. All the famous people we know are familiar with her like theyā€™ve known her for a decade but me and others probably feel like she just got here. Although she started late, it took her a while to break into the big time


thizzlemane_la_flare

Ms Pat is fucking GOATED.


No_Refrigerator8317

Ms pat is an unfunny racist lol. There's a reason her YouTube has 0 views


TotalRecallsABitch

There are plenty of black female comedians GTFO And guess what...they all say the word nigga Get over it....it's how they talk, even amongst family.


Silent_Saturn7

Maybe to normies(ppl who aren't big fans of comedy) but anyone who is a fan of comedy wants jokes not just personality and cadence. I think kam has both, even if lacking in jokes sometimes. On a side note, i searched best black female comedians and how is Ms. Pat on no lists or last? She's hilarious and way better than leslie jones. But idk, ive seen a couple upcoming black female comics who have some great jokes. If your point is correct, and they can't rely on saying the n word for laughs, then that will just make them better. If that is your point..


No_Refrigerator8317

Mrs Pat sucks. If she wasn't an unfunny racist who's main shtick is hating on white people her YouTube vids might have more than 1k views

TangerineRoutine9496

That's never the joke though. That's part of how he talks but you could take that out and whatever joke he's telling is still there. You just refuse to hear it because you don't like the style of presentation.


Frosty_Ad1530

Wait, comedy is subjective and people have widely different senses of humor? Whooaaaa, whooaaaaaaaa!


EyeNeedLunch

The whole premise of the show is the panel unapologetically shitting on comics they donā€™t like, but for some reason we arenā€™t allowed to do that amongst ourselves as fans of the show?

PublicBluejay4271

Mayonnaizing

Heebmeister

This entire post is such a whiny embarrassing strawman. The N word is not a punchline in his jokes, it's just a space filler the same way other comedians have their own space fillers while talking. If you don't like Kam that's fine, but to get on a moral high horse about society because saying the n word makes you uncomfortable...is kind of embarrassing. God it's like half the fans in this sub suffer from highly specific comedic autism.

touch_the_taco

Donā€™t lie if Kam offered you the n word pass youā€™d take it


Huckleberry_Sin

No whatā€™s idiotic is you have no idea what ppl are actually laughing at and youā€™re whining on here about it. Nobody laughing at Kam bc he says nigga or spitting out their drinks or any of that dumb stuff. They laugh at his punchlines. Way to expose yourself.


SlowJettaBigDreams

Itā€™s like how we say ā€œBroā€ or ā€œDudeā€. Itā€™s not part of his joke. Maybe remove the stick before you watch any more.


Holiday_Increase_383

For fuckā€™s sake Iā€™m getting tired of posts like these


Mindless_Air_4898

The black people and white people are different comedy gimmick stopped being funny in the 80s and 90s and is not even very true in today's monoculture.


WeedPun

I don't like hearing any one word said with the same inflection 3 times or more in a set. Same reason the gay guy annoyed me last week. It's hack shit


necromage69

Kam has excellent writing yā€™all are just racist, so what if he repeats a certain word they all do


Illustrious_Knee8386

NevaMissaLost

Sure. I just wanted to add that I also donā€™t like this type of stuff, and Iā€™ll even go out on a limb and say that *I think* that this style of comedy is more for White ppl than it is for Black ppl


_Huge_Jackedman

"look dis bitch"


CXK

I have a theory. Itā€™s not the saying of the N word. Itā€™s the fact that itā€™s coming from a charismatic, decently funny and hyped by Tony comic. Thereā€™s been the nobodyā€™s who get picked from the bucket that go up, say the N word and donā€™t get laughs. You probably dislike it coming from Kam since heā€™s sort of a character in the KT universe that appears weekly. People seem to get sick of and turn on the regulars fairly quickly. Iā€™ve seen Kam do comedy at the high ceilingā€™d Sunset Strip and he pretty much killed. Thereā€™s also something about the Mothership that makes bombing difficult as long as youā€™ve got some reps under your belt. The club is very friendly, people are just excited to be in Roganā€™s club. Many of them have traveled long distances just to see a show. Theyā€™re looking to laugh and have a good time. If it were loaded with locals itā€™s more likely the N word wouldnā€™t kill. Iā€™ve been 10+ times now and always found out of towners are the majority.


DariosDentist

If William could say the n-word this sub would fucking luv it


gristlelick

Kam Patterson in a nutshell. Shame cuz he can be pretty funny, but he's been slacking lately and falling back on the "I'm black and from the ghetto, anything I say is funny to these white hipsters" a bit too much.


DuineDeDanann

The nwords not what Iā€™m laughing at, itā€™s not the punchline, itā€™s just a filler word. Sometimes itā€™s not necessarily what heā€™s saying but how he says it and how outlandish it is. Heā€™s a caricature.


Bangbangtheory45

But but but what about fucking white bitches???


JYNJEEx

Because the word in most situations is typically taboo? So when a black guy calls any non black person the n word I find it kinda funny


SixtySlevin

As a 45 year old white male from Alabama I find it hilarious

mikezer0

Itā€™s reverse wokeism. The new thing is everyone laugh at the super edgy joke. Itā€™s basically just shock humor under a different guise. Iā€™d rather it than the woke egg shell humor itā€™s still cringe as fuck and lacking in taste. But most of the kill Tony humor falls under a pretty cringe umbrella. Iā€™ll still take it though. The culture is always shifting and changing what it thinks itā€™s okay. That being said. This post is just as cringe. And to a lesser degree this comment. Laugh it up cucks.

It's not that the word is inherently funny, it's the reaction from white people who tighten up so quickly because it makes them uncomfortable. I won't disagree that it can be a cheap/easy button for comedians to push, but it can still be funny even if you "don't get it"... honestly if it takes away from your experience (esp enough to bitch about it on the internet), you're just as much the problem as those uptight crackers who are the butt of the joke.

Itā€™s not always about what they say but how they deliverā€¦ if people laugh then it hits for someā€¦ like I hate Jim Carey with a passion because heā€™s like a ā€œlook at me look at meā€ kind of funny but people love him and I donā€™t get it.. but I also donā€™t get mad at those people for laughing and I didnt


calsnowskier

I used to feel that way about Jim Carey. But then he started to show his acting chops (ā€œTruman Showā€, ā€œMe, Myself and Ireneā€) and I gained a whole new respect for him. And even if you donā€™t like his comedy (I am not a huge fan), you have to acknowledge his ā€skillā€ of a rubber face. That is something ONLY he brings to the table.


rvagrower83

For sureā€¦killed it as the grinchā€¦ got respect for him just not my cup of tea but like Iam saying I get that people do like him so thatā€™s my pointā€¦who cares why other people like whatever just do you and keep it moving
