i think the first time we spoke is i'd written that thing about louis and after
louis the whole
news but louis happened you had all these i love that piece by the way thank
you it was so accurate
and honest yeah it was on facebook which where i did a lot of my best explain
what you were saying
to people that didn't read it after louis a lot of people uh were rightly you
know criticizing
conduct and you know the whole me too thing that that's all valid and sure 100
needs to happen
but then there were people that were like you know louis was never funny or louis
was just you
know of course he got all these things he was a white guy or and i'm like wait
what and they were
like well he said this word i don't like well look at this joke and i'm like
guys a week ago he was a
comic genius we all agreed on that that was a widely held belief now out of
nowhere he's not that funny
and and these people are tweeting this from parking lots where they're
performing some of these shows in
la are in like someone's driveway you know yeah and and which is fine i do them
i have no problem with
that yeah but they're getting on twitter and and knocking louis from the back
of a parking lot where
they're doing a show but what you the reason you gave for why well because
these there's in any
industry people are going to get ahead by being agreeable by having the right
opinions by crowdsourcing
their opinions by taking the temperature of the room and going how does
everyone feel and those people
are you know they're careerists they're very good at office politics they're
very good at having the
right friends but their contributions are never really important or long
lasting because they never
get great because they don't take any risk because i think greatness is
something you have to risk
constantly to to get to that level yeah so a lot of these people do very well
they make money
they're they're successful but they are careerist and they're looking for
comfort
and so when it was comfortable and safe to attack louis and to bring louis down
and to elevate themselves
they did it but they didn't do it when it could have hurt their career a week
earlier you know yeah
so to me it was very disingenuous and the fact that more people weren't calling
it out and and i and i
made that point where i said the same thing on the other side of people who've
styled themselves like
i'm a free speech warrior i'm this anti-pc and their whole entire persona is is
the need to say the n-word
right like we have to yeah so those to me are kind of the same people and they're
they're the people
that are just trying to arrange the world in a way that allows them to succeed
those are the types of
people also like you were talking about the actor in the you know you mean they're
they're putting
on a facade yeah this is not who they are they've adopted a predetermined
pattern of behavior 100
and that predetermined pattern of behavior might be i'm a guy i drink every
night we go hard right
i'm an artist i smoke cigarettes right right you know i'm not trying to get on
tv yeah so to me it
was like incredibly disingenuous you had all these people and a lot of them are
angry and they're doing
fine yeah like some of them are talent like some of these people have their own
shows and they're
getting angry at louis and they're getting angry and i'm like there's a there's
a real because here's
the thing arti shafir told me something made a lot of sense once he goes it's
it can really be a
waste to get into this type of business and end up in an office writing for a
show you don't care
about in a job you hate punching a clock and that stuck with me and always like
it might be harder to
go the other way and to build a fan base and to do what you want but it's going
to be it's going
to be better in the end and you're not going to be angry you're not going to be
resentful
