Rob Schneider: “I’m not changing my material or apologizing for my jokes to anybody. Enough with this woke bullsh*t. America’s sick of it." variety.com/2024/film/news…
@Variety Shocking how everyone is anti Rob... He is funny and accurate... I am waiting for the hate brigade to attack me...
@Variety Good for Rob for having the cajoñes to say it out loud. So many other people in Hollywood are afraid to speak out for fear of losing work, even though they feel the same way
@Variety He thinks he speaks for America?
Schneider, while not my cup of tea or my definition of funny, is not wrong. I will say, though, that the word "woke" has been hijacked, twisted, and wrongfully associated with the problem Schneider is really talking about, which is actually illiberalism. For example, cancel culture, voting blue no matter who, shouting down opposing ideas, vilifying and dehumanizing people with terms like "bigot" just because they don't agree with you, "believe all women" — even those who have been caught lying, identity politics, etc. Yes, the world is definitely sick of that crap. Look at the stock histories of the major motion picture studios that took up that fight; they paint a pretty clear picture in the only color that actually matters in the business world: green.
@Variety Rob Schneider has material? Huh, who even knew?
@Variety Rob Schneider is correct. This Country has forgot what having fun meant and as a millennial, I too ain't apologizing anyone's feelings cause people don't know what the true meaning of the word woke at all
@Variety We said enough of Rob Schneider by skipping out on his lame ass movies years ago.
