I caught the opening monologue. The audience was stunned into silence by David’s tasteless jokes.

I promptly tuned out.

It is worth remembering that Larry David and his family are political activists who routinely support Leftists.

As the punch lines from a old Jackie Mason joke goes, “He’s too Jewish.”.............

"...tasteless..."


It was a comedy bit about his poor pick-up lines with women.
It was not about religion. Let’s not melt like snowflakes, people.

If you don’t get Larry David, then don’t watch him.

The good news is that it’s SNL, so no decent person was likely watching. The show hasn’t been funny since Chris Farley left. The show’s main viewers are 20-something stoners and middle-aged liberals who imagine that Alec Baldwin in an orange wig is edgy political satire.

His politics notwithstanding I think Larry David is a comedy genius.

I don’t think there are any funny Holocaust jokes. I don’t see any humor in the Holocaust. They should have given him the hook.

“Sex and fertility was the ultimate affirmation of life.”

Liberals should return to this.

“Throughout history, anti-semites have imagined that Jewish men were either effeminate (and that they menstruated)”

I certainly wouldn’t have known this. Stereotypes are so often propagated by people bemoaning stereotyping or bigotry.

My gut reaction is anything that turns off the audience for this show is probably good.

Much of Larry David's humor from Seinfeld and Curb your enthusiasm came from violating social norms and manners.

Here is Larry David's "Jewish humor" from 37 years ago: (long before Krav Maga became widely known) Enter the Matzoi

Yes he is. I love Curb Your Enthusiasm, despite all the dumtardishness. I can filter that out. And Seinfeld? Hello???

Joan Rivers could be very funny. I think her joke leverages the bad taste better.
