Some idiots on the right think bill bur is in the middle, how many times does he have to say fuck trump for those morons to understand. He deff not a establishment dem but he is deff a progressive
As someone who listens to his podcast regularly, he’s a borderline socialist at this point, but he has blinders on when it comes to “both sides” bullshit.
It’s probably because he doesn’t want to alienate half of his audience, which I get. But it’s super frustrating to hear because he’s right there.
“She went on ESPN and said ‘I don’t understand why female athletes don’t make as much as male athletes’ and all these men had to sit there pretending to be dumbfounded. I’m sitting at home screaming at the TV ‘BECAUSE YOU DON’T SELL ANY FUCKING TICKETS!’”
–Bill Burr.
Not exactly a bastion of blue haired “My pronouns are emdash/interrobang” leftism, is he?
Reminds me a bit of George Carlin, especially in his later years. George Carlin once did a bit about groups of people he would like to see killed in various ways, to include gun enthusiasts, helicopter parents and people who made small purchases on a credit card.
Yeah, it boils down to criticizing feminists for being hypocritical, which would not be tolerated of a member of The Left™.
He’ll also poke The Right™ as much; all he’s got to do to get people thrown out of a venue in Texas is say “I love vaccines, man.”
The dude isn’t on either side, he’s the kind of comedian who makes fun of abject bullshit, and abject bullshit is Not. Scarce. in 21st century America.
In terms of right and left he’s pretty much the center. American “centrists” are actually right wingers in other countries. Heck, even the Dems who consider themselves leftists are actually on the right.
Its not the immigrants that are the problem, its the system propped up on abusing groups that have less rights than others. Dressing it up as a humanitarian concern is a distraction from the real problem. The focus should be on companies who abuse employees.

I think they say that because he portrays himself angrily, and people on the right can really relate to that.

You excluded the rest where he said if woman really wanted to support them they should watch their games.
Which is a good point. And a lot of comedy is delivery which is lost in text.

And he did marry a black woman so he is far from conservative.

not all anti-trump people are progressive. plenty of center and right-leaning folks say fuck trump. not enough, but plenty.
also it’s not even progressive to say “don’t blame immigrants”. that’s just basic humanity and not letting republican fear mongering drive you rabid.
