Jerry Seinfeld Blames Woke Culture for Destroying Comedy, Calls for Defense of Uncensored Jokes

Jerry Seinfeld has spoken out against individuals who have ruined comedy, stating that they are responsible for destroying humor altogether. The comedian explained on “The New Yorker Radio Hour” that people still crave laughter but struggle to find it due to the excessive political correctness and wokeness in today’s society. Seinfeld criticized those who censor jokes out of fear of offending others, stating that this results in a loss of creativity and humor as scripts are passed through multiple committees for approval. The comedian argued that comedy should be edgy and push boundaries, with nothing being off-limits. He urged people to defend the right to make any joke they want, whether it lands or not, highlighting how Patrice O’Neal emphasized this important principle in previous years. Seinfeld’s comments come at a time when many argue that comedy has lost its sparkle and creativity due to political correctness and cancel culture.
