I'm a transgender woman and this kind of shit is why I can't deal with a lot of the mainstream trans community, and have severely reduced the amount of time I spend in trans-centric spaces. Everyone is way too sensitive about everything and will treat microaggressions as grave unforgivable offenses. Also, as a trans person of faith, other transgender people often find a way to get offended by the fact that I am religious (even though proselytizing is a big no-no in my religion), and they will occasionally give me shit for it.
Sativa Queen 420 I'd be interested in hearing how other members of your religion have treated you if you feel like sharing, and also am curious what religion that is.

That little trio of tumblr cringe-inducers are literally the most annoying types of people. They are no fun to speak with, and I avoid them at all costs
Great job!! 'speak with' rather than 'speak to' - I can just never bring myself to say 'speak to' somebody, and I almost never see or hear anybody else using 'speak with' - much nicer English in my opinion. Thanks :-)
f0rumrr yes. It’s true that she said that and that was a good point. It’s too bad the rest of her routine is a bunch of “orange man bad” unfunny cringe. I don’t even like Trump, but that’s some low hanging fruit
The most entitled point of view is thinking you should get paid to say whatever you want even if people don't find it funny. And all her jokes were bad regardless of who she was trying to offend.
we as a society are _really_ pushing the bubble of childhood out _way_ too far, now. by the time people are college age, they really shouldn't be getting sheltered like this anymore. we're doing young people a disservice by keeping them so infantile for so long into adulthood.
Kids today have more access to information than ever before and you assume that it is just "They don't know what's good for them"? We don't have many dirty limericks or aristocrat jokes today either it must be because the boomers were too infantile. I have followed comedy my entire life and I think this comes down to comedians aging out of a group. If you are in your pushing 50+ and established there is a good chance you have no fucking clue what it's like to be an 18-22 yo college kid.
@@Go4Noctis it's not a generation gap issue, the world has always been a mean place to live in and it will walk all over you if you let it. The access to information doesnt make this(my) generation smarter, and learning to cope with reality isn't an obsolete concept.
You're an idiot - the "Christian Right" isn't weaponizing their sensitivity, they never stopped Howard Stern become a superstar. Today, a "Christian Right" person would need a police escort to visit a college campus.
@@Kidsinamerica Well Bill Donahue from the Catholic League did a pretty good job of firing Opie & Anthony in the early 2000's when they had more listeners than Stern. The evangelicals did a damn good job at preventing same sex marriage in the mid 2000's as well as one of it's fringe groups shouting "god hates fags" at soldiers funerals. The Christians also did a damn good job eliminating evolution from southern and Midwestern PUBLIC SCHOOL curriculum's. I could go on, but needless to say, the left is exploiting the same bullshit the Christians have since the 70's. There is no difference between "god hates fags" and "jokes arent funny".
@Bruce Wayne I understand what you are saying, but despite the rise of radical left college kids Trump is president, abortion is nearly impossible in large swaths of the country and even after the the secular victory in Dover, PA evolution is taboo in many school systems and politicians are scared to death of confronting climate change. Long story short, children in college do not run the system, they can have huge impacts on the entertainment industry and advertising agencies since they are the group with the disposable income that attracts those entities. Yet beyond protesting and tweeting, they tend not to vote or care about a single topic longer than it trends. Plus the best thing about college students is that they get older, a lot of millennial's (me included) are in their mid 30's with some approaching 40. It's easy to be a self righteous radical when you are a young liberal arts student, but eventually they will grow up and either move towards the center and become gainfully employed or a creepy old person who is always broke and no one takes seriously. However, the right has remained cohesive and just crazy enough to get what they want done but not crazy enough to show their true colors. That's why they are so dangerous.

Greg Chung Rather when in all honesty they keep tip toeing around issues all the time when it comes to pointing out stuff on the left. Not afraid to call people Nazis in a jiffy though.
Cuz they value well meaning and thoughtful arguments, not just "we do it cuz white people already have too much priveleges". Vice knows what their values are, and I respect that.
This is horrific. The three bookers made my skin crawl. Look at the righteousness in their eyes, so sure they know whats best. Teach your children to identify people like this and protect themselves.

I know, right? One could literally say the exact same thing to her (or, them) regarding their mindset. Even when she's smugly dismissing the notion that processing trauma through comedy, can be an ideal situation? I'm Irish--I'd hate for her to be at any of the funerals/wakes I've attended.
It's kind of a dual sided thing. The university is saying if you can't agree with what we want, get out of our circuit. The comedians are saying, if you don't agree or feel uncomfortable with what we say, walk out. One is prevention and the other is intervention. The biggest problem that I see is that we have gate keepers for the University circuit rather than simply posting the subjects that will be talked about, and let the seats speak for themselves.
Lu Austin I've adapted to avoiding "liberal" college kids. You are correct though. When Trump wins his second term just remember that society did adapt to these idiots and opted for a strong voice opposite of theirs. My how the economy will grow!
You must be joking. Make a "offensive" joke these days and risk getting sued. Even Jerry Seinfeld who's probably the most vanilla mainstream comedian out there doesn't want to perform on campuses anymore.
bongo155 lol love how you needlessly make it about race. Did you you learn that at one of these campuses? Just pull the race card whenever you want to try and shut down any viewpoint you don't agree with. Chris Rock also refuses to play at colleges, still about race? That interview with the bookers was a prefect example of intolerance of other views. He's doing his job, passing devil's advocate and asking questions but they are talking over him as he tries to ask questions. Like how dare he even question their policies?!
I'm a journalist and I come back to this video often because the reporter in it does an awesome job. He holds both sides accountable and asks thought provoking questions to both.
@@RocStarr913 Outrage has been democratized, it's a shitty construct built by the media to create conflict to sell advertisements. I.E "The War on Christmas" If you can't laugh at the quirks and funny-cuz-true things that are delivered as JOKES by a COMEDIAN whose job it is to push around a society's comfort zone. I'm French-American and I get roasted all the time and its funny! It CAN be unfunny but thats from drunk jackasses across a bar. Unless you're "tribe" has been subject to centuries of brutal oppression, slavery, others have tried to ethnically cleanse you etc. The people whining are NOT those people! The N word carries massive historical baggage, joking about Italians or Mexicans are always from a kernal of truth: the comedian is always on your side but the delivery is too 'harsh' so people loose their minds and say their offended. You're right, everyone has access to a platform where they can complain now. Even a great joke will offend 1 person, and then EVERYONE has to play along and make a safe space etc. to accommodate them. Clearly, comedians are taking massive heat for the smallest culture war BS whilst we should all be focused on wages/labor conditions and climate change. Go to any other culture, it's an American thing..
@@RocStarr913 I understand why they would want safe spaces, but it doesn’t mean that they’re right. It just gives a reason for censorship, Whether they’re offended gives them no right to censor artists doing what they do.
How do these people plan to be equipped for life outside of campus if they can't even take a joke about anything?! The faculty is actually doing the students a disservice by shielding them from everything remotely controversial. What happens when they graduate? They going to want trigger warning from every person they encounter? It's like dumping babies out of the cradle and into the street. I don't remember my college experience being like this, but that was almost a decade ago. Maybe things have changed.
What will happen is these cry babies will run to human resources, claim they are being harassed, file a lawsuit, brand you as a racist, rapist, misogynist, or homophobe, and you will be fired or forced to resign. Don't believe me? ask Bret Weinstein.
Adam Kiser they don’t plan on it. They plan on fighting everything along the way until they get what they want. Despite what you may think, they are transforming life outside of campus, particular work/corporate life.
So basically, they look for a comedian, then read through the comedian's set, scour the Internet for any clip of the comedian making a problematic joke, then stand off stage, ready to cut the mic at any moment. Sounds like a great place for a comedian!
They don't deserve entertainment in this way. Their entertainment is themselves, whining about everything. Misery loves company. They call people like that "toxic". They better break out of it while their young, or they'll be on antidepressants, if they're not on them already.
Lady: The diverse voices are telling me one thing Interviewer: that makes no sense. Then the voices aren't diverse Lady: well they're different colors... That's what I meant
I didn't see different colors in the audience...they were all pretty much fat, short haired white girls with trendy glasses and/or piercings. That is what I cal diversity.
The voices can be diverse and the message be unified....I mean, if you took a world wide poll, I think most everyone would say they don't like tornados, for example
I'm a left-leaning liberal arts student, and I think this is ridiculous. The world is not always safe or kind or correct...get used to it. And how are we supposed to think critically and develop well-rounded perspectives without diversity of THOUGHT?
Sverion Ruzz Jesus Christ dude. Some ppl generally have other interest then computer tech or engineering. U guys are big mad we can get a job as a Human Resources manager or PR director make and make a triple digit salary without taking super hard college classes. Yes believe it or not, there are triple digit salary jobs doing things other than engineering or law. Perhaps u should stop generalizing degrees, yes ppl some ppl with a liberal arts degree *choose* to work lower paying jobs like history teacher etc, whatever their passion is but most of us are genuinely just not caught up in the you have to work in engineering or tech hype. Do what makes you happy and pays the bills if you can do that, then u can stfu and stop hating on other ppl choosing to do what they want
"Liberal" in this context refers to the wide array of humanities subjects that can be studied under the umbrella. Please don't devalue someone's degree without understanding it first.
7:36 Well some day she will finish school and have to face the real world... If your school is shielding you from reality instead of preparing you for it then it's a bad school.
This is not a good way to look at it because it ignores the fact that these kids are bringing this culture to the “real world.” I work in the legal field and many corporations will not hire a law firm unless they have a certain level of diversity, racial and/or gender. Thats just one minor example. You have to fight back with ideas and can’t just dismiss it as though these people will somehow wake up when they get into the “real world.”
I agree with the sentiment on the comments, but let's be fair and not dislike this video. VICE is simply exposing these snowflakes, not supporting them.
Agree with all above. Vice is typically bullshit but in this they are not, just exposing others. It’s important to understand there are rifts in media companies, some content is good and sometimes bad, even on similar subjects. You could even find this for companies like Nat Geo.
Agreed, though I wouldn't say "radical left". That implies strict adherence to Marxist-Leninism or other forms of Communism. You're talking about Progressives who get easily triggered over humor. They're left-wing, not far-left. Not all snowflakes are proletarians. You should distinguish between the two.
"an extension of the entire campus climate that we're trying to create" That's some sinister stuff right there. So it's your job to create a single climate for the entire campus? I'm gonna take a while guess and say that you happen to be supportive of whatever views this "climate" tolerates, as well. She also thinks people can be 'harmed by jokes' I wonder how many anti-trump, or anti-christian, or anti-"anything right of Bernie" jokes she "protects" students from.
Don't be fooled. This kind of "climate" isn't a climate they want to keep at college campuses. They want to extend it to the entirety of the country, and they are trying their hardest.
"they are conduits for our voice" how about you take a poll of the student body instead of superficially mandating that you speak for everyone. signed: -A college Student
This happned to me on my campus when I was doing Stand up and I was told I couldn't make a joke about Mike pence. Even though I was making fun of him, I was told it was hurtful and insensitive to bring it up. Comedy is not an attack, comedy helps us explore those hard to talk about issues, laughter is a good medicine for trauma.
CcReap3r that was the problem. I said how pence thinks you can shock people straight, and even though I was making fun of him I was told it was too offensive
bongo155 but feelings shouldn't matter more than speaking truth to power. If we can't use our words and our art to commentate on the times or critique our leaders than what's the point of free speech? I'm not saying don't listen to marginalized voices when they point out real harm, just saying that it can't be this cut and dry. There needs to be nuance when we talk about painful subjects in comedy.
i initially read this as "why college campuses can be minefields for some _CANADIANS_ " so half way through the video i'm like, "where does the 'canadian' part come into play?" and then i reread the video headline and suddenly it all made sense: i'm an idiot that can't read.
@@worldisfilledb College won't prepare you for war.. well maybe OCS will. Coddling should stop wayyyy before college. I know 10 year olds that act more adult than most of these students and faculty.

Having dealt with them online and seen some of their philosophical ideas bandied about, I can say that they can sometimes end up being just as toxic, racist, and sexist as the bigots they purport to oppose. In my experience, casual -isms usually occur out of pure ignorance. If you approach a person who said the thing with empathy as another human being, then explain why the thing they said was wrong, the vast majority of empathetic humans would learn something new and change their behavior. Unfortunately, the SJW often starts with an insult, tells the other person to shut up because they're not a member of [protected non-privileged group] and therefore don't understand--but no, I don't have to explain it to you. Basically, they shut down conversations that need to happen for any progress to be made, are just as locked up in identity as the bigots, and do little of the work that needs to be done to advance their causes. This does not, of course, excuse the racists, sexists, and bigots. I just think that we need to be able to have these conversations with each other, stop retreating to our bubbles and reach out to one another as humans. This "other"ing is dangerous for our society because while we agree on at least 70% of our values, we're letting that 30% divide us so much that our government has ceased to function as it should. It used to be we could actually find our common ground and work from there. Now it's all talking past each other to see who can score the most political points. When societies cease seeing their neighbors as neighbors and start seeing them as enemies... that's when civil unrest and genocide happens.
Thanks for your comment. I just think that Michael knows how to call people out on their BS. Like when he said diverse but everyone has the same experience. I think jokes are fine, even if it is a sexual assault joke. It's not a big deal.
Absolutely. She had these thoughts in her head or blog I guess, but when pushed by the reporter she just folded. I don't think she has enough faith in her argument if her response is to just get pissy or shut down. Look at her eyes, she's stabbing at the reporter for even questioning her. That's the product of sheltered teaching sheltered.
Bear Arms given that shit like marriage still has a huge influence on both taxes, rights to your own children etc I'd say christianity still has a huge influence on modern day society...
bongo155 you don't have to point out the baddies on the right when the topic at hand are the baddies on the left lol. And to be honest how many kids in college do you gotta worry about being evangelicals? Rhymes with hero
bongo155 you sure have a lot contempt for conservatives if you call them right wing shits. Btw the whole kneeling thing isn't comparable. The dudes are on the clock, you can't use your job for a political soapbox. It's self-absorbent. Why not raise money, or protest any other way? It ain't like the James Damore memo either Google literally asked him specifically for his opinion on how-to include women in the work place.
LOL the job for those 3 is essentially to filter the outside world for anything potentially triggering. These students are reaching sensitivity levels I didn't even think were possible.
Good questions but that's not the school's problem. They are managing the campus environment that they are responsible for with complete disregard of how it will affect them AFTER their education.

"When someone says to a comic, 'hear is the line you do not cross', not only should you cross it you should gleefully bolt for it". Mark Thomas said that when he was banned from a club for princess Diana jokes.

Tailored fit, far left leaning, comedy that bans even dad jokes, I fail to see the diversity. "If you cannot adapt, get out". This just might be the scariest thing I've ever heard.
It's a weird justification, that you pay a fictitious "moral arbiter of what we all should think" to screen things for viewing. These things might happen for elementary school speakers... These are adults. This is some 1984 shit.
LOL thank you. I knew her as if i grew up with her as soon as i saw her. It’s funny that exact type thinks theyre so intelligent/different while in reality EVERY ONE of them is the exact same. And I’m not hating on women(for all those liberal pc’s out there), the men who look like that are the exact same as well. Fucking sad.
It's gonna be a hard awakening for these people when school ends and real life begins. They will quite rapidly find that alot of the world will not adjust to their wishes. Some will of course, but most won't. Life is not a "safe space". Life is a brutal experience that you need to learn to navigate.
They make they world adjust to their whims. My mom does employment law for a major enterprise, and at least 30-40% people who get fired for legitimate reasons come back with a claim for compensation because "It's because of my race!! It's about my gender identity!!" give me a fucking break.
@bongo155 you don't know Have you ever listened to anything he's ever done or said ? His time on Tough Crowd or Opie and Anthony? Probably not. So either you haven't discovered comedy gold or you just have really shitty sense of humour.
It applies to the government. It doesn’t apply to businesses. Businesses are first and foremost about making money and not alienating a single customer.
I’m a college student in Boston and I would like to say not all of us get triggered by jokes. Some of us actually respect and love comedy and would never try to dictate what a comedian does on stage.
being uncomfortable is actually a good thing, it helps you grow as a person, you become tougher and more self-reliant, these kids are doomed because they just downright refuse to adapt, perpetual childhood
When Larry The Cable Guy, Chris Rock, Bill Maher, Jerry Seinfeld, Patton Oswalt, and Judy Gold - among many other successful comedians - all decide to no longer play college campuses - let's stop blaming the comics and start blaming the campuses. When the court jester can no longer perform before the king, the kingdom has become far too tyrannical. But hey, I'm Cishet and white so I guess my opinion doesn't matter.
According to the comedian Tosh, even kids with terminal illness's in the make a wish foundation have more of a sense of humor. I'm a graduate student in materials engineering, and I think universities are great places to learn for fields like science and medicine, but gender studies has placed a stigma on the reputation of universities. For the most part I don't care how people want to live their life, but it's overbearing to demand respect and to go out of your way to censor opinions that contradict your own. Not every form of speech is protected under the 1st amendment like perjury, child pornography, and defamation, but comics should be free to make jokes. Great comedians are actually quite thick-skinned, since they deal with heckling all the time. If a routine falls through, they pick themselves back up, reassess their approach, and try something different in their next gig. I think that kind of determination is worth showcasing to people whether its in a comedy club or a university setting. Not all students at universities are like this; it's just that loud and stupid tend to mix well together, so we end up with people like flat earthers or anti-vaccination protesters.
I definitely think Judy Gold said it best. "Don't hire me if you don't want to hear what I have to say." The action item from there on is simple. Just say, "Ok."
maybe superficially, but how can a group of individuals be diverse in OPINION when they all regurgitate the same bullshit they read on a shared article by the huffington post on facebook
i feel so bad for my sisters kids and can't even explain to them why yet. And even when they are older the difference between explaining and experiencing define understanding
Those freedoms were often at the expense of others though: women, people of color, queer people. They have more of a voice than they did back then, especially with the Internet and social media able to document their grievances.
Couldn't help seeing the irony there. This muppet is now determining what people may find offensive, yet focused his 'stand up' on his mother. As if there aren't people out there that had horrendous experiences at the hands of their mother and wouldn't feel "triggered" by his 'mom jokes'??? As per usual, these idiots pick and choose what suits their narrative...

"18 to 24 year olds now are more diverse than they've ever been" 3:40 Literally factually incorrect, its only the college campuses that are more diverse.
Eh, not really. I know of plenty of non-offensive comics who've had me completely rolling on the floor with the most nonchalant humor. I think many of these 'edgy' comedians really want to be edgy for the sake of being edgy. I've seen very few comedians who do the edge thing well. Bo Burnham does a good job for instance. Comedy is very subjective, like both the comedians featured in this video, neither of them appealed to me. Not because I found anything in their stuff offensive or unacceptable, but just because I didn';t find it appealing to my sense of humor.
@@Koujoung Interesting take. You may be interested in this 15 minute editorial by Doug Walker (the Nostalgia Critic) on whether humour is getting more offensive, or whether we're just getting soft.

That line got me. "we are paying you to perform a service" I changed my mind on the topic. Just like getting hired for a corporate gig and being told the do's and dont's by them. You either accept it or go elsewhere

Also, as a trans person of faith, other transgender people often find a way to get offended by the fact that I am religious (even though proselytizing is a big no-no in my religion), and they will occasionally give me shit for it.
Sativa Queen 420 I'd be interested in hearing how other members of your religion have treated you if you feel like sharing, and also am curious what religion that is.

we as a society are _really_ pushing the bubble of childhood out _way_ too far, now. by the time people are college age, they really shouldn't be getting sheltered like this anymore. we're doing young people a disservice by keeping them so infantile for so long into adulthood.
It is a great disservice and will cause them a lot more pain and regret in life.
They grew up with the internet, they're not sheltered.
They're not paying for rude boys tho
@@celinak5062 theyre still sheltered though not entirely
Kids today have more access to information than ever before and you assume that it is just "They don't know what's good for them"? We don't have many dirty limericks or aristocrat jokes today either it must be because the boomers were too infantile. I have followed comedy my entire life and I think this comes down to comedians aging out of a group. If you are in your pushing 50+ and established there is a good chance you have no fucking clue what it's like to be an 18-22 yo college kid.

what happenned to college kids wanting controversial things
College kids want it; liberal art's school baby's don't.
The Christian Right won. They started it and now the kids are like them.
You're an idiot - the "Christian Right" isn't weaponizing their sensitivity, they never stopped Howard Stern become a superstar. Today, a "Christian Right" person would need a police escort to visit a college campus.
@@Kidsinamerica Well Bill Donahue from the Catholic League did a pretty good job of firing Opie & Anthony in the early 2000's when they had more listeners than Stern. The evangelicals did a damn good job at preventing same sex marriage in the mid 2000's as well as one of it's fringe groups shouting "god hates fags" at soldiers funerals. The Christians also did a damn good job eliminating evolution from southern and Midwestern PUBLIC SCHOOL curriculum's. I could go on, but needless to say, the left is exploiting the same bullshit the Christians have since the 70's. There is no difference between "god hates fags" and "jokes arent funny".
@Bruce Wayne I understand what you are saying, but despite the rise of radical left college kids Trump is president, abortion is nearly impossible in large swaths of the country and even after the the secular victory in Dover, PA evolution is taboo in many school systems and politicians are scared to death of confronting climate change. Long story short, children in college do not run the system, they can have huge impacts on the entertainment industry and advertising agencies since they are the group with the disposable income that attracts those entities. Yet beyond protesting and tweeting, they tend not to vote or care about a single topic longer than it trends. Plus the best thing about college students is that they get older, a lot of millennial's (me included) are in their mid 30's with some approaching 40. It's easy to be a self righteous radical when you are a young liberal arts student, but eventually they will grow up and either move towards the center and become gainfully employed or a creepy old person who is always broke and no one takes seriously. However, the right has remained cohesive and just crazy enough to get what they want done but not crazy enough to show their true colors. That's why they are so dangerous.
So in other words.. Bill Burr cant perform there
Not just Billy Boy, but Chris Rock, and a plethora of other comdeic characters/icons

so in other words.. comedians can't preform there
Bill Burr is boring anyway. I wouldn't want to go to one of his shows and I'm sure a lot of people would agree with me on that.
So it's basically like booking comedians for a kindergarten class. Gotcha.

Limiting what you can say is not comedy. What you can say and not say is not comedy. Sensitive little fucks are ruining comedy I miss dead baby jokes 😂 “diverse”
Just to clarify . What she means by diversity is diversity of race and not diversity in opinion right?
She means diversity in gender identity because no race has been invented since she started working at Lesley University
she means i am gonna scapegoat the journalist as close minded while refusing to answer any questions and say diversity as a crutch
It's hard to say - most of that college audience resemble siblings or cousins who apparently shop at the same store.
I honestly dont think she knows what she means, just putting words together that sound clever.
Kiran KNair correct
Why is this so disliked, vice actually took a neutral stance on this. Actually if you look at other videos on PC culture, like evergreen and princeton, Vice was actually rather critical of the students
Greg Chung Rather when in all honesty they keep tip toeing around issues all the time when it comes to pointing out stuff on the left. Not afraid to call people Nazis in a jiffy though.
dislike is for the views of the subjects interviewed not necessarily the way the subject was covered
Honestly those bookers were so annoying that my finger twitched and smashed the dislike button
Cuz they value well meaning and thoughtful arguments, not just "we do it cuz white people already have too much priveleges". Vice knows what their values are, and I respect that.
I dont think people are disliking because of vice, just the douches in the video representing the bookers for comedy at colleges. Vice is great.
This is horrific. The three bookers made my skin crawl. Look at the righteousness in their eyes, so sure they know whats best. Teach your children to identify people like this and protect themselves.
The bookers are going to help the Future suicide statistics go up... the next generation are going to fall apart the first time someone in the reaL world tells them "they don't give a Fuxk how they feel get it together"

Judy Gold was not that bad. Come on..
"If you can't adapt, get out!". Very diverse and tolerant.
I know, right? One could literally say the exact same thing to her (or, them) regarding their mindset. Even when she's smugly dismissing the notion that processing trauma through comedy, can be an ideal situation? I'm Irish--I'd hate for her to be at any of the funerals/wakes I've attended.
It's kind of a dual sided thing. The university is saying if you can't agree with what we want, get out of our circuit. The comedians are saying, if you don't agree or feel uncomfortable with what we say, walk out. One is prevention and the other is intervention. The biggest problem that I see is that we have gate keepers for the University circuit rather than simply posting the subjects that will be talked about, and let the seats speak for themselves.
It does sound like something a racist/sexist/transphobic/homophobic/etc twat would say.
Lu Austin I've adapted to avoiding "liberal" college kids. You are correct though. When Trump wins his second term just remember that society did adapt to these idiots and opted for a strong voice opposite of theirs. My how the economy will grow!
You must be joking. Make a "offensive" joke these days and risk getting sued. Even Jerry Seinfeld who's probably the most vanilla mainstream comedian out there doesn't want to perform on campuses anymore.
Yatesy pretty sure he could easily do a set there while abiding by their ridiculous rules, but they don't pay well...
bongo155 It used to be a good guage to test out new material now he admits these millennials can't take jokes
bongo155 lol love how you needlessly make it about race. Did you you learn that at one of these campuses? Just pull the race card whenever you want to try and shut down any viewpoint you don't agree with.
Chris Rock also refuses to play at colleges, still about race?
That interview with the bookers was a prefect example of intolerance of other views. He's doing his job, passing devil's advocate and asking questions but they are talking over him as he tries to ask questions. Like how dare he even question their policies?!
bongo155 nah they're just a bunch of pussies

I.E "The War on Christmas"
If you can't laugh at the quirks and funny-cuz-true things that are delivered as JOKES by a COMEDIAN whose job it is to push around a society's comfort zone. I'm French-American and I get roasted all the time and its funny! It CAN be unfunny but thats from drunk jackasses across a bar.
Unless you're "tribe" has been subject to centuries of brutal oppression, slavery, others have tried to ethnically cleanse you etc. The people whining are NOT those people! The N word carries massive historical baggage, joking about Italians or Mexicans are always from a kernal of truth: the comedian is always on your side but the delivery is too 'harsh' so people loose their minds and say their offended.
You're right, everyone has access to a platform where they can complain now. Even a great joke will offend 1 person, and then EVERYONE has to play along and make a safe space etc. to accommodate them. Clearly, comedians are taking massive heat for the smallest culture war BS whilst we should all be focused on wages/labor conditions and climate change.
Go to any other culture, it's an American thing..
@@RocStarr913 I understand why they would want safe spaces, but it doesn’t mean that they’re right. It just gives a reason for censorship,
Whether they’re offended gives them no right to censor artists doing what they do.
How do these people plan to be equipped for life outside of campus if they can't even take a joke about anything?! The faculty is actually doing the students a disservice by shielding them from everything remotely controversial. What happens when they graduate? They going to want trigger warning from every person they encounter? It's like dumping babies out of the cradle and into the street. I don't remember my college experience being like this, but that was almost a decade ago. Maybe things have changed.
what happens? welp lets find out
The dude from Emerson explains it perfectly that all they care about is money.
What will happen is these cry babies will run to human resources, claim they are being harassed, file a lawsuit, brand you as a racist, rapist, misogynist, or homophobe, and you will be fired or forced to resign. Don't believe me? ask Bret Weinstein.
That's why we have all these laws in Canada where you get fined for not being a polite little surf.
Adam Kiser they don’t plan on it. They plan on fighting everything along the way until they get what they want. Despite what you may think, they are transforming life outside of campus, particular work/corporate life.
That crowd is horrifying
The goddamn nose rings. Its a big sign - *AVOID*
So basically, they look for a comedian, then read through the comedian's set, scour the Internet for any clip of the comedian making a problematic joke, then stand off stage, ready to cut the mic at any moment. Sounds like a great place for a comedian!
It sounds like North Korea.
Oh no save the comedians! Someone call Amnesty International.
And then all of a sudden it becomes "Oh no save the journalists! Someone call Amnesty International."
They don't deserve entertainment in this way. Their entertainment is themselves, whining about everything. Misery loves company. They call people like that "toxic".
They better break out of it while their young, or they'll be on antidepressants, if they're not on them already.

This is not a good way to look at it because it ignores the fact that these kids are bringing this culture to the “real world.” I work in the legal field and many corporations will not hire a law firm unless they have a certain level of diversity, racial and/or gender. Thats just one minor example. You have to fight back with ideas and can’t just dismiss it as though these people will somehow wake up when they get into the “real world.”

I agree with the sentiment on the comments, but let's be fair and not dislike this video. VICE is simply exposing these snowflakes, not supporting them.
They are often supporting them and hardly calls them out.
Agree with all above. Vice is typically bullshit but in this they are not, just exposing others. It’s important to understand there are rifts in media companies, some content is good and sometimes bad, even on similar subjects. You could even find this for companies like Nat Geo.
First time I agreed with you
No they are supporting them hence the downvotes more are coming
Agreed, though I wouldn't say "radical left". That implies strict adherence to Marxist-Leninism or other forms of Communism. You're talking about Progressives who get easily triggered over humor. They're left-wing, not far-left. Not all snowflakes are proletarians. You should distinguish between the two.
20 years from now, "Remember jokes? Ah those were the good ol days."

That is soooooo offensive.. so like.. take that down.
"an extension of the entire campus climate that we're trying to create"
That's some sinister stuff right there.
So it's your job to create a single climate for the entire campus? I'm gonna take a while guess and say that you happen to be supportive of whatever views this "climate" tolerates, as well.
She also thinks people can be 'harmed by jokes'
I wonder how many anti-trump, or anti-christian, or anti-"anything right of Bernie" jokes she "protects" students from.
I'm glad someone else caught that.
There's a lot of people in these comments who are bitter about never qualifying for college
Most colleges don't require qualifications any more. The SAT and GPA's were deemed racist. No, that wasn't a joke.
Don't be fooled. This kind of "climate" isn't a climate they want to keep at college campuses. They want to extend it to the entirety of the country, and they are trying their hardest.

Even though I was making fun of him, I was told it was hurtful and insensitive to bring it up.

bongo155 but feelings shouldn't matter more than speaking truth to power.

There needs to be nuance when we talk about painful subjects in comedy.

Having dealt with them online and seen some of their philosophical ideas bandied about, I can say that they can sometimes end up being just as toxic, racist, and sexist as the bigots they purport to oppose. In my experience, casual -isms usually occur out of pure ignorance. If you approach a person who said the thing with empathy as another human being, then explain why the thing they said was wrong, the vast majority of empathetic humans would learn something new and change their behavior. Unfortunately, the SJW often starts with an insult, tells the other person to shut up because they're not a member of [protected non-privileged group] and therefore don't understand--but no, I don't have to explain it to you. Basically, they shut down conversations that need to happen for any progress to be made, are just as locked up in identity as the bigots, and do little of the work that needs to be done to advance their causes.
This does not, of course, excuse the racists, sexists, and bigots. I just think that we need to be able to have these conversations with each other, stop retreating to our bubbles and reach out to one another as humans. This "other"ing is dangerous for our society because while we agree on at least 70% of our values, we're letting that 30% divide us so much that our government has ceased to function as it should. It used to be we could actually find our common ground and work from there. Now it's all talking past each other to see who can score the most political points. When societies cease seeing their neighbors as neighbors and start seeing them as enemies... that's when civil unrest and genocide happens.

I liked that Michael pushed the female booker with the glasses on the right a bit hard. Vice keep this guy, his segments are always good.
Haya Glamazon Agreed.
Thanks for your comment. I just think that Michael knows how to call people out on their BS. Like when he said diverse but everyone has the same experience. I think jokes are fine, even if it is a sexual assault joke. It's not a big deal.
Absolutely. She had these thoughts in her head or blog I guess, but when pushed by the reporter she just folded. I don't think she has enough faith in her argument if her response is to just get pissy or shut down. Look at her eyes, she's stabbing at the reporter for even questioning her. That's the product of sheltered teaching sheltered.
We speak for the thin skinned and radical students who complain and take offense about everything. That's a great recipe for comedy.🙄

They are trying to prevent the growth of such comedians.
"When someone says to a comic, 'hear is the line you do not cross', not only should you cross it you should gleefully bolt for it". Mark Thomas said that when he was banned from a club for princess Diana jokes.
That rule applies in regards to punching up. Not punching down.

6:54 to 7:08
the girl with the purple hair saying comedy is in no way supposed to challenge you and cant trigger you in any way at all. this is depressing. im in gen Z and it is honestly embarrassing how no one my age can take a joke. even in normal groups. you have to make sure whatever you are doing wont offend anyone. that makes no sense
Oh Amy is there to steal some jokes again.
On the bright side at least somebody will get HPV out of it.
Amy Jewmer. She said so herself.
Shhh!! U will ruin her hustle 🤣🤣🤣
How on Earth did Family Guy ever appeal to College kids?
I can see it appealed to You!
@@willissudweeks1050 Thank you.
Those were 90's and early 2000's kids so comedy was actually comedy back then

@Weißer Wolf Why is it about time?
Tailored fit, far left leaning, comedy that bans even dad jokes, I fail to see the diversity.
"If you cannot adapt, get out". This just might be the scariest thing I've ever heard.
It's a weird justification, that you pay a fictitious "moral arbiter of what we all should think" to screen things for viewing. These things might happen for elementary school speakers... These are adults. This is some 1984 shit.
Colleges are not the government. Colleges are all about protecting their brand and getting students to attend.
every feminist girl with glasses in their 20s has the same exact mannerisms and voice
LOL thank you. I knew her as if i grew up with her as soon as i saw her. It’s funny that exact type thinks theyre so intelligent/different while in reality EVERY ONE of them is the exact same. And I’m not hating on women(for all those liberal pc’s out there), the men who look like that are the exact same as well. Fucking sad.
Like they're clones
It's gonna be a hard awakening for these people when school ends and real life begins.
They will quite rapidly find that alot of the world will not adjust to their wishes. Some will of course, but most won't. Life is not a "safe space". Life is a brutal experience that you need to learn to navigate.
Jens Nilsson
Sadly, they are changing the workplace too.Running to H.R. over every perceived slight.
They make they world adjust to their whims. My mom does employment law for a major enterprise, and at least 30-40% people who get fired for legitimate reasons come back with a claim for compensation because "It's because of my race!! It's about my gender identity!!" give me a fucking break.
@@imDezrt The fact that litigation is such big business doesn’t help. You can sue for practically any little perceived slight.
I wish Monty Python was on their stage telling them the deadliest joke in the world.
Times like these, I mourn the death of Patrice O’Neal daily.
@bongo155 Better than this shite at least
@bongo155 you don't know Have you ever listened to anything he's ever done or said ? His time on Tough Crowd or Opie and Anthony? Probably not. So either you haven't discovered comedy gold or you just have really shitty sense of humour.
And the great george carlin.
yes.
@@divinejacobmathew1503 hes always on fox talking bout libertarianism
"Free speech isnt designed to protect us, its designed to keep us free"
more or less the quote
It applies to the government. It doesn’t apply to businesses. Businesses are first and foremost about making money and not alienating a single customer.
I’m a college student in Boston and I would like to say not all of us get triggered by jokes. Some of us actually respect and love comedy and would never try to dictate what a comedian does on stage.
being uncomfortable is actually a good thing, it helps you grow as a person, you become tougher and more self-reliant, these kids are doomed because they just downright refuse to adapt, perpetual childhood
Just out of curiosity, but would you encourage bullying because it “toughens” and it’s “uncomfortable”?
I’m genuinely curious.
@@jamesdragonforce No.
That purple haired girl's face perfectly matches her personality.
LOL every chick that looks like that is the exact same. Looks/personality/everything.
Best part is they view themselves as intelligent/different when just by seeing one of them you know exactly who they are.
How dare you assume their gender! 😱
( Clutching at pearls)
When Larry The Cable Guy, Chris Rock, Bill Maher, Jerry Seinfeld, Patton Oswalt, and Judy Gold - among many other successful comedians - all decide to no longer play college campuses - let's stop blaming the comics and start blaming the campuses. When the court jester can no longer perform before the king, the kingdom has become far too tyrannical. But hey, I'm Cishet and white so I guess my opinion doesn't matter.
Jesters literally got killed if they couldn't read the room
You cis white Male! How dare you even type words!
In college you are allowed to think freely, as long as you don't offend someone.
Basically don't think freely.
Wow those 3 people were hilarious. Thank God they are in charge of humor on their campuses. The future is saved.
Judy Gold speaketh the truth
“When I’ve done standup I talk about my mom.”
Sounds about right
J Ribs sounds like Leave it to Beaver, without the humor.
According to the comedian Tosh, even kids with terminal illness's in the make a wish foundation have more of a sense of humor. I'm a graduate student in materials engineering, and I think universities are great places to learn for fields like science and medicine, but gender studies has placed a stigma on the reputation of universities. For the most part I don't care how people want to live their life, but it's overbearing to demand respect and to go out of your way to censor opinions that contradict your own. Not every form of speech is protected under the 1st amendment like perjury, child pornography, and defamation, but comics should be free to make jokes. Great comedians are actually quite thick-skinned, since they deal with heckling all the time. If a routine falls through, they pick themselves back up, reassess their approach, and try something different in their next gig. I think that kind of determination is worth showcasing to people whether its in a comedy club or a university setting. Not all students at universities are like this; it's just that loud and stupid tend to mix well together, so we end up with people like flat earthers or anti-vaccination protesters.
I definitely think Judy Gold said it best. "Don't hire me if you don't want to hear what I have to say." The action item from there on is simple. Just say, "Ok."
Judy Gold is right - deal with it
You'll find more edge at a clean christian comedy club. Some "liberals" they are. Sad.
Napoleon Rapem'Hard ha yeah right. Say anything blasphemous about their religion and they get super offended.
Luis Carrion Yeah but at least they wouldn’t be forced to pretend to believe in a zillion genders.
Napoleon Rapem'Hard I'd rather have a zillion genders than have to put up with people who want their religion to rule over me.
Did you not watch the video? They force SJW cult doctrine on everyone there. Much like a religion.
Luis Carrion but putting up with BELIEVING in a zillion genders IS HAVING THEIR RELIGION PUT OVER YOU!
"18-21yr olds noowwww.... are more diverse than they've EVER been......" wow.
Like, totally
Incredibly scientific- I have no doubt...
maybe superficially, but how can a group of individuals be diverse in OPINION when they all regurgitate the same bullshit they read on a shared article by the huffington post on facebook
Considering that is a blanket statement, it is true. *However, a liberal arts school with a high female enrollment, no, that is not diverse.*
really! I couldn't figure out what has changed to add more diversity..more genders I guess, but that was an idiotic statement
I just love how they have such a distinguishable look.
If Don Rickles were performing at college campuses today, 8:00 would be his entire act.
"We make experiences for students" You mean you vet anyone that might shake your echo chamber and trigger SJW snowflakes?
I feel so sorry these kids have to live this way. Only if they could have experienced the 70's and 80's and the freedom's we had.
i feel so bad for my sisters kids and can't even explain to them why yet. And even when they are older the difference between explaining and experiencing define understanding
Those freedoms were often at the expense of others though: women, people of color, queer people. They have more of a voice than they did back then, especially with the Internet and social media able to document their grievances.
7:12 "when Ive done standup I used to talk about my mom........."
*_COMEDY_*
Couldn't help seeing the irony there. This muppet is now determining what people may find offensive, yet focused his 'stand up' on his mother. As if there aren't people out there that had horrendous experiences at the hands of their mother and wouldn't feel "triggered" by his 'mom jokes'???
As per usual, these idiots pick and choose what suits their narrative...
My question is....WTF happened to challenging ideas? Critical thinking? Thoughtful analysis? in the ICU if you ask me.
David Hutchinson ummmmmm ummmm bigotry is not a basis for an opinion furthermore stop acting like wrong ideas are challenging other opinions there just wrong later neckbeard
Thewarmestmachine that’s exactly the point he’s trying to make. Believing that any opinion other than yours is immediately “wrong” and “bigoted” proves you need to be challenged intellectually
Stephen M. Stouter
Upmmm that’s the thing these people act like there option as neo nazis are just as valid when there not there stupid and just wrong you can’t argue with facts sis
Thewarmestmachine not everyone who disagrees with you is a neo-nazi, that’s just asinine.
@@thewarmestmachine1211 your kind tends to prefer socialist values over capitalism... Ironic because Hitler was a socialist himself.
VICE, you helped bring this to college campuses. Are you making news to cover now? Don't get me wrong, I think it's brilliant.
Can you explain how vice did that? Or are left leaning people all just one voltron mech to you
"18 to 24 year olds now are more diverse than they've ever been" 3:40 Literally factually incorrect, its only the college campuses that are more diverse.
If the Crowd is Clapping more than they're Laughing you're not a Comic, you're a preacher
Honestly, I'd love to ask them for a list of what cannot be made fun of, just to see how long that list would be & what is left to joke about.
I'm literally shaking right now, how dare you speak poorly of the list you nazi.
I believe it was George Carlin who said, "Comedy doesn't work unless someone's getting offended."
Eh, not really. I know of plenty of non-offensive comics who've had me completely rolling on the floor with the most nonchalant humor. I think many of these 'edgy' comedians really want to be edgy for the sake of being edgy. I've seen very few comedians who do the edge thing well. Bo Burnham does a good job for instance. Comedy is very subjective, like both the comedians featured in this video, neither of them appealed to me. Not because I found anything in their stuff offensive or unacceptable, but just because I didn';t find it appealing to my sense of humor.
@@Koujoung Interesting take. You may be interested in this 15 minute editorial by Doug Walker (the Nostalgia Critic) on whether humour is getting more offensive, or whether we're just getting soft. (This was where I got Carlin's quote from.) See what you think:
th-cam.com/video/CNyHlSHbK4s/w-d-xo.html
That line got me. "we are paying you to perform a service" I changed my mind on the topic. Just like getting hired for a corporate gig and being told the do's and dont's by them. You either accept it or go elsewhere
Yes, but they're shackling the comedians with so many rules that the comedians can't do the "service" they're being hired for effectively.
Present our new car design. But don't talk about cars.
Since when are Corporations "good stewards" of Constitutional Rights? Do you think its a good idea to sell-out an individual's Principles and Ethics for a paycheck?
This is a good point. I fucking hate SJWs but when your hiring someone it’s your choice on what you want. Now when they ban speakers it’s bullshit.
I do have to admit, I am thankful that there are more and more of these types of people in today's world. My kids are raised to not be overly sensitive, self centered babies and I smile at the reality that this will be their competition in the world.
