I have an invisible disability, a neurological and developmental disability that hinders social and communication skills; I'm a socially awkward geek, in layman's terms. Even with being on the autism spectrum I want to (as well) be viewed as normal, yes I don't automatically comprehend social norms like the majority however I can still completely fake social abilities as to (at least) appear normal. My disability is not me, it just has an affect about who I am.
“It’s harsh but...suck it up” Ricky, someone who is quite literally crippled, telling others to suck it up really shows that he’s more of a man than most of us
Even if that was the case a lot of the best Comedians insult and demean themselves as part of some of their acts. Matter fact its one of the best ways of using sarcasm without making yourself look mean.
@@Razgar_Voxel that's what I was thinking, this is a common type of commedy, it's actually sadder that that crippled guy only sees Ricky as crippled, and that anything he does must be because he is crippled. He is a comedian that laughs at himself that just happens to be crippled, nothing more
There is a comedian named Josh (not sure what his last name is), and he has cerebral palsy. His opening bit is making fun of his disabilities, and he is pretty funny. If you don't like what he does, all you have to do is not watch. Offense is never given, only taken.
As someone with a disability myself, I can't help but admire his confidance. He is funny. People are going to judge all of us regardless so might aswell live a little.
Right? I constantly make fun of myself for being blonde and a woman (I work in a male dominant industry). There's nothing wrong with laughing about yourself. I love Ricky, he's hilarious. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to treat disabled individuals poorly because I watched one of his videos.
People that only see his "disability" are the problem, he makes fun of himself, thats the most advanced type of humor, people will literally get butthurt at anything.
The one who is in a wellchair and said he is degrading himself is a really stupid and maybe just jealous, Ricky is making people undertand that a person with a dissability is not just that and they can be cool and funny and he is being able to break this wall and show us his great personality, we love you Ricky!!
Degrading himself? The fuck? Instead of feeling sorry for himself like most people with his conditions, he's out living life to its fullest and not letting his physical conditions hinder him from enjoying life. I admire him for that honestly
Well the most likely answer is that other people with disabilities make their disability their whole personality. And when he insults the only thing that those people have, they’ll get angry. I’m myself Autistic, but I don’t treat that as my whole personality, I don’t even view it as a weakness, I actually view it as a strength because of my brain being wired differently to other “Normal” people, I can think of things that others wouldn’t even subconsciously think. But I also don’t care if you insult people with autism, fuck I do it myself, those autistic fucks.
Why should your life be defined with how God or nature made you? "Oh my hand is deformed and my spine is a pretzel" so you're just gonna sit there and cry like a toddler. Suck it up bro!
We aren't laughing at him for "degrading" himself, we're laughing with him at the comedy that he produces. The hacks in the media are just upset that he isn't afraid to take potshots at everyone while they tiptoe on eggshells
I laugh at how much he pisses people off. If more people had the same attitude towards life that he has, the world would be a more tolerant place. Instead most people seem to be up eachothers asses all the time stroking their ego's with faux virtue signaling flags. He's a one of a kind dude. Irreplaceable.
Yep, Ricky just has a dark sense of humor and thats ok. The Faruzel guy has other problems than sitting in a wheelchair, i burst out laughing when hearing his voice.
if anything Ricky is a better advocate for disabled people than any political activist because he shows that disabled people really are just normal people who have a sense of humor about themselves and the world and can contribute just as much as anyone else.
Yes,because of Ricky I now respect disabled people more.I will no longer see them as protected.Yes,I'm so moved by this comment.I love disabled people as much as normal people . I will stop killing them now.
Well, there was Stephen hawking, so I guess he is not making the best, but quite well! Making people laugh is important, and also I don't think he is degrading himself. He is who he is.
What grinds my gears is the fact that they’re trying to make him look like a bad person but Ricky is just being happy and himself respect for that my man keep it up
He's not degrading himself... He's finding the bright side of life... Yes he probably gets a lot views because of his physical appearance, but he's a funny dude... He makes people laugh...I have a job work with people with disabilities and it makes my heart happy that he's choosing to be happy.
Lol. Ricky is a bad ass. "It's sad you have to degrade yourself." So what is he supposed to do? Instead of bringing joy to millions he should just hide in his home and be quiet? What the shit is this dude on about?

I assume deep down the guy is simply jealous. I mean... Just hear him talk. He could make a career just out if his voice. If he wants to or not, i of course don't know.
@@HerrHoppenstedt yeah they’re jealous. Guy has spent all his life trying to get 5% of Ricky’s clout and Ricky comes and in a short time becomes the hero we never knew we wanted but definitely need. I love Ricky he ain’t no simp!
He’s not degrading himself. He’s a comedian. There’s isn’t one good comedian out there that doesn’t knock themselves or others for one reason or another. Respect Ricky! 🤘his personality is addictive. I’m a subscriber and proud to support.
"How does this affect you?" Ricky: "it doesn't, im fine the way I am." Dumbass reporter: "he deflected" He didn't deflect. He just doesn't have the victim complex which you want him so badly to have.
@@bobibobbobino there are two different points in the video where the reporter says he deflected the question, the first one regarding his illness and the second one about the money
"It's sad you have to degrade yourself." - No... you don't "have" to do anything. What he does is removing the fear of interacting with people different than yourself. He can joke around far greater than most people which makes him more relatable than most people. In my eyes he's earned my greatest respect.
The difference between Ricky and the other guy is that one is genuine and enjoys life and the other hates himself and how he looks and wish he was "normal"
@@harms123 the dude saw it as "degrading himself", but in reality, Ricky said he just want to make friends. Not all crips are the same bro, some are tougher and living their lives to the fullest.
@Amazin Josh Did you see the scrolling words at the bottom of that clip? “People around the content have lined up for Ricky’s new butt flavored cookies” 😂😂😂
People are offended when u show them how their animals or meat is made. Degrading is eating fast food and breastfeeding teety juices from cows as udder suckers 😂 but we live in a PC Baby 🍼 world 🌎 and he give it the v-gun birdie🐥
As a fellow crippled man, who loves comedy and making people laugh, I salute you. We need more people like you. People who don't take themselves too seriously.
My good friend Billy is disabled, cerebral palsy. His humor is similar to Ricky. Both are hilarious. Their humor shows strength and confidence. Demands respect.
Exactly!. As a man w/ CP, I'm the first person to laugh at myself. Love that self-deprecating humor. If you can't laugh at yourself, then who can you laugh at. I admire Ricky for not giving a F**k & just being himself. The world has gone soft though & if you really think about it everyone is 'dis/in-abled' in one/form or another. Hell, if one wears glasses they are now 'less then' perfect. It's just because it's more common that it's deemed more 'acceptable' IMO. I live by the motto 'respect me & I'll respect you'...simple as that
I miss when TH-cam used to be a site with normal people editing videos with simple editing tricks and treat them like it was the best they’ve ever done and now, videos with amazing editing gets treated like its their 1000th time seeing an old video
Depends what it is I know the internet doesn't have it's own thought process and support whatever creator they love but if a person were to tell a person apart of the lgbtq community they aren't meant to exist or a person tells someone their mother or son deserved to die even though they were a good person you wouldn't say it's harsh but suck it up so no not great advice for everyone
@@hinamatsuro1908 actually probably would, even horrible people have a right to their opinions, it's called freedom of speech. So yeah it sucks, but suck it up. People are allowed to say whatever they want, you're not obligated to believe them. If you allow someone else's shitty opinion to ruin your day, that's on you.
News channels are always intrusive about it. They don't quite understand how it's monetizable so they will ask a rather impolote question. Like I'm not inviting someone to my house and then asking them to show me their paystub
I don’t think he’s being degrading to himself, he’s just playing an act and trying to make people smile, clearly seems like a gentleman when he’s not recording.
Self-deprecating humour is a good way to deal with a shitty situation, be it depression, physical disability, or simply a shitty situation that arises during life. What I don't get is that if a handicapped person makes jokes about themselves it's considered degrading or inappropriate, but if someone like Ricky Gervais did the same it's simply considered humourous. Making other people laugh or smile makes you feel better even at your worst, I know that from experience and fully support RB's way of dealing with the situation he was born into.
I wonder what video triggered his comment. The value of the channel comes from his personality, timing, and gag lines, and most don't have anything to do with the disability
I love this guy’s personality! Talk about not letting physical limitations define your life or keep you down. Cheers to you sir 🍻 keep flipping off these politically correct idiots please
Yeah, the character he’s playing isn’t even anywhere near offensive, not even stereotyping. Don’t get how people see that as degrading, his fan base loves and accepts him.
@@bigdrip8316 It depends. For example, joking about someone else's trauma is something you could get offended at but in this case it's just a guy playing a character. It's the same as able-bodied people playing a character, so he isn't even really being offensive. He's poking fun at himself, in a way other people do, even being less offensive as others.
Hes everything the world should be. He doesn't let himself be a victim and so many people take literally anything they can to try and victimize themselves and get treated as such. I've always enjoyed his videos a lot
White Boy Reacts Yes that's because he has a disability, only because Ricky is happy, it doesn't mean that everyone else who is disabled, have to feel like Ricky. The disability is only holding you back. Most disabled people actually feel pretty bad about themselves, because they don't have the opportunities like the healthy people do. Ricky is one of a kind, and I'm pretty sure one of the few who managed to become successful while suffering from such a seriuos ilness.
White Boy Reacts Also good luck finding a job, or something to do while no one, is wanting to accept you and the the only people that care about you, are your family.
Warghost Why should they? I live in a post-soviet country and trust me, being disabled is very bad - not a lot of people care about you, you earn minimal money, only drain your resources of your parents, it's extremely hard to find a job and not a lot of places have a possibility for you to use their services. Sounds very depressing to me.
@@rokaskarosas5092 because looking at things with a positive point of view will help you get through things...you can easily be down and depressed and blame the world or the crappy hand you were given but it really takes guts to be like shit ok this is what I got...lets make the most of it.
2:39 He isn’t degrading himself, his accepting his reality and making the best of it. I commend him for what he’s done. He’s more successful than most able bodied people and that can’t be denied. Don’t hate him because you ain’t him!
Imagine having the mindset to find a genuine, active, and hilarious man building a channel to put smiles on people's faces and all you really want to ask is how much money they make. The media makes me more cynical by the day.
Ricky makes allot of money but look in every video he makes,does it look liek he spends it all on superficial stuff ? Nope he maintains his scooter and sometimes props for his videos,he truly doesn't care for the money or he would be one of those youtube idiots who buys a 40 bedroom mansion they are never gonna use. he's down to earth and i don't say that because he's crippled.
He's doing whatever he damn well pleases, and has become an Internet God in the process. You get to see him because you can't be him. Suck it up, lowly mortals.
2:39 He is not degrading himself. He just has a great sense of humour. Look how happy he is. He even makes his mom proud. This guy could learn a thing or 2 from Ricky.
"When asked about his disability he deflects" Deflecting means to move away from the topic at hand. Saying it doesn't matter is not deflection. He's telling you it doesn't matter. This is why I hate the news. People love that guy yet the news just has to churn out a story to try and piss people off.
its about context. you cant just pull a dictionary definition and apply it to everything. bro, the reporter was CLEARLY insinuating that he deflects the sentiment that his disability affects him negatively and NOT that he was deflecting the question. please dude.
@@astroreflux no he doesn't. The reporter said when asked the question, he deflects. If he didn't want to imply that a question was deflected, then he wasn't clear.
Because able-bodied people (specifically in news media, not necessarily in general) seem to think they know everything about disabled folk and try to victimize them at every turn 🙄 gets views I guess.
People without disabilities: *act silly to make people laugh* All fine and well People with disabilities: *act silly to make people laugh* Hey, you can't do that!
“It’s sad that you have to degrade yourself to get yourself” how? If you don’t give a shit it doesn’t matter he’s successful and people enjoy him so in reality he’s not degrading himself his being himself
@A M if I could get paid to eat cheese off the floor while painted as a rat I bloody well would. I don't think any one of Ricky's viewers would ever ridicule him or degrade him. It's okay to laugh at a situation. What do you want Ricky to do? Be miserable and not express any sort of creativity and personality?
@A M "There is enough exploitation of disabled people in media" please...where...by the way I'm in a wheelchair WHO are you even speaking on behalf of? The only disability society cares about anymore is attention seeking teen gender crap so please tell me how it's soooo prevelant in society I can't tell you the last time I even saw a disabled person in media & before you get on your representation high horse I don't WANT to be represented the whole point of entertainment is IMAGINATION which none of you kids have you lack empathy to such a degree you can't connect with a story unless it's about you...
@A M Yeah and what would you rather have him do? Mope around all his life saying 'Woe is me!' all the time? Honestly, he is not even capitalising much either. Most of his videos are not eligible for ad revenue and even the ones which hardly have any ads in them, which I would say he deserves. So get stuffed you sorry sod.
I don't see what Ricky does as degrading to himself really. Sure, he pokes fun at himself but a lot of people do that. Is it only degrading because he's physically disabled? Maybe Ricky doesn't want to be treated like some snowflake.
Mad respect to this man. He is more successful than most healthy people and he is not afraid to show the world for who he is. I would literally hide in my room and never go out if i were him

"It's sad you have to degrade yourself to get ahead in life" No that is called using a weakness as a strength and getting ahead in life, ultimately no one is going to help you get ahead of themselves, you have to find the means to do that, someone might give you a hand for a short term assist, but they will not hold yours for the rest of their lives.
And you're absolutely right about that, I have a disability not as serious as Ricky though, but that's not the point, I been there done that no one is going to feel sorry for you by laying around and feeling sorry for yourself, use your strengths and weaknesses. I hate it with a burning passion whenever I feel like. I'm getting treated differently just because of the situation is, I rather be treated with honestly then someone bullshiting me just because they "feel sorry for me"
"Its just sad that you have to degrade yourself to get ahead in life" yeah I bet that guy is real run to talk to. Self deprecating humor is hilarious when its honest. Dont project your insecurities on people having fun folks.
They really don't understand you at all Ricky. The 2nd reporter looks like he just wants reasons to tell you you're wrong for what you do and he seemed a bit jealous that you're so successful and yet don't give a damn about the money. Just shows you're doing the right things in life bud.
As someone who has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair, Ricky is the type of person those who have disabilities should aspire to be. People are trying to be offended on the disability community's behalf. While people are being sensitive, He's laughing at you all while he's making the best of his situation and making a livingwhile doing it. Never change Ricky. You're truly inspiring to others like me.
Oh, I actually feel bad for the other dude not appreciating him. Somehow I really do feel like I accept people with disabilities more when they act like they don't care IF they aren't mentally impaired. I feel Ricky seems much more huminezed by doing what he does. Sad to see not everyone agrees :(
I've been following Berwick since the start, he is such a gem and makes all my friends and I die laughing. We got the exact same sense of humor. YOU GO RICK you rock man, hope one of these days i run into you at a comic con and take a photo with you :), I can only imagine Ricky's response to the dude that said he was degrading himself HAHAH must be new to the internet

Self-deprecating humour is a good way to deal with a shitty situation, be it depression, physical disability, or simply a shitty situation that arises during life. What I don't get is that if a handicapped person makes jokes about themselves it's considered degrading or inappropriate, but if someone like Ricky Gervais did the same it's simply considered humourous.
Making other people laugh or smile makes you feel better even at your worst, I know that from experience and fully support RB's way of dealing with the situation he was born into.
I wonder what video triggered his comment. The value of the channel comes from his personality, timing, and gag lines, and most don't have anything to do with the disability
@@AveSicarius he doesn't want anyone to feel bad for him, that's why he uses His "bad Situation" to entertain people.

White Boy Reacts Yes that's because he has a disability, only because Ricky is happy, it doesn't mean that everyone else who is disabled, have to feel like Ricky. The disability is only holding you back.
Most disabled people actually feel pretty bad about themselves, because they don't have the opportunities like the healthy people do. Ricky is one of a kind, and I'm pretty sure one of the few who managed to become successful while suffering from such a seriuos ilness.
White Boy Reacts Also good luck finding a job, or something to do while no one, is wanting to accept you and the the only people that care about you, are your family.
@@rokaskarosas5092 no they dont have to...but they probably should.

Having a sense of humor includes taking some shots at yourself. Ricky owns it. He clearly is very comfortable in his body and who he is.
Having a sense of humour is pretty much mandatory if you have a disability. It's never a good look to have the "oh woe is me" mindset.

They really don't understand you at all Ricky. The 2nd reporter looks like he just wants reasons to tell you you're wrong for what you do and he seemed a bit jealous that you're so successful and yet don't give a damn about the money. Just shows you're doing the right things in life bud.
As someone who has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair, Ricky is the type of person those who have disabilities should aspire to be. People are trying to be offended on the disability community's behalf.
While people are being sensitive, He's laughing at you all while he's making the best of his situation and making a livingwhile doing it. Never change Ricky. You're truly inspiring to others like me.
Oh, I actually feel bad for the other dude not appreciating him. Somehow I really do feel like I accept people with disabilities more when they act like they don't care IF they aren't mentally impaired. I feel Ricky seems much more huminezed by doing what he does. Sad to see not everyone agrees :(
