It’s no secret that the “woke mob” has been coming after comedians for years. The woke left has long taken over other aspects of the entertainment industry. Everything from movies, kid’s shows, music, and award ceremonies has become manipulated by the progressive left.

Comedy films are dead because writers are not allowed to be funny anymore. The same can be said about most sitcoms.

The woke left has been gunning for stand-up comedy for years. A few comedians have been pushing back–stirring up a hornet’s nest of trouble. But one unlikely hero is emerging in the anti-woke war. And he just fired a shot across the woke mob’s bow.

From Daily Wire:
[Howie] Mandel knows comedy better than many, and he sees what happens when a stand-up isn’t allowed to broach certain topics for fear of serious repercussions.

“If you think of comedy as an art, they started telling us there are certain colors you can’t use. If you’re a painter you shouldn’t say, ‘you can paint anything you want, but don’t use black, don’t use any yellows and it’s really not right to use blue.’ Art suffers, and there isn’t anything we shouldn’t talk about.”

Iconic comedian Howie Mandel blasted the progressive left for trying to control comedy. He said it is like telling a painting what colors they can’t use. The famed stand-up and TV host went on to explain that “all humor comes out of darkness.”

Often comedy comes at the expense of others. Comedy is a powerful outlet that is used to criticize those in authority. Yet it appears the very goal of the left is to deprive Americans of their ability to question Democrats and their many mistakes.

Mandel isn’t even known as a “controversial” comedian. Yet even he sees the danger that these woke censors pose to this vital art form.

He is joining the likes of Dave Chappelle and Joe Rogan, who are giving the woke mob a well-deserved middle finger. More and more comedians, especially notable ones, have defied the woke mob. They are being rewarded with surging support among fans. Some are even gaining Netflix specials, as streaming services also defy the mob.

The more entertainers defy the woke left, the less power this mob has over free speech. Comedy appears to be the last bastion of free speech in the industry. If comedians can successfully defeat the woke mob on the stand-up stage, their victories might spread to the rest of the entertainment world.

The key is for Americans to support those comedians who refuse to bow to the left.
