Maybe you should have read what he actually said:
“It made me cry: the idea that ... no longer six white Oxbridge men can make a comedy show. Now we need one of this, one of that, everybody represented... this is bullshit. I no longer want to be a white male, I don’t want to be blamed for everything wrong in the world: I tell the world now I’m a black lesbian... My name is Loretta and I’m a BLT, a black lesbian in transition.”
He added: “[Allen’s] statement made me so angry, all of us so angry. Comedy is not assembled, it’s not like putting together a boy band where you put together one of this, one of that everyone is represented.”
The whole Python troupe was the most politically incorrect thing on earth, at the time.
I did - maybe you should understand that up until Gilliam’s way of life and work were being attacked that he was an utter, unabashed liberal stacking all conservative thought and supporting feminism and homosexuality and any other progressive cause.
But now that his neck is in the noose he’s squealing like a pig.
Terry’s got a very very long history of advocating others perform random acts of inclusiveness for the sake of diversity. That the ship has finally come calling at his port o call is a natural progression, and his outspoken attacks against it is a prime example of liberals holding to the one standard they understand: double standards.
