Last month, part of disgraced comedian Louis C.K.'s recent set was leaked, showing him making fun of Parkland shooting survivors. Decent people were outraged. Last week at a show in Los Angeles, Saturday Night Live alum Sasheer Zamata decided she would take Louis C.K.'s jokes and use them to remind the world that Louis C.K. is not funny, and is actually trash. In response to his joke about Parkland, Zamata said:
"He says that the survivors of the shootings shouldn’t be spending their time talking to Congress about gun control. Instead they should be ‘finger-fucking’ each other. But who’s to say they’re not? They can do both! They’re teenagers - of course they’re finger-fucking each other! They just know how to separate sex from work, which I understand is a hard concept for Louis to grasp. Which is ironic, because we all know how much Louis loves to grasp hard concepts."
Despite coming for C.K., Zamata does defend a comedian's right to say whatever they want on stage though, as long as it's actually a joke:
"You can’t just get up onstage and say blatantly racist, transphobic, victim-blaming statements without a punch line! Like, who are you - all of our uncles?"
