It’s officially time for disgraced comedian Louis C.K. to go away forever.
The accused sexual predator is back in the headlines after a comedy set he performed earlier this month at Governor’s Comedy Club in Levittown, New York leaked online.
In the set, the 51-year-old comic panders to the alt-right by mocking non-binary people and the Parkland shooting survivors and using an antigay slurs and other pejoratives attacking people’s identities.
Here’s a little sampling of C.K.’s “jokes” from the set:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
On non-binary young people:
They tell you what to call them. ‘You should address me as they/them, because I identify as gender-neutral.’ Oh, OK. You should address me as ‘there’ because I identify as a location. And the location is your mother’s c*nt.
On the Parkland survivors:
They testify in front of Congress, these kids? What are they doing? You’re young, you should be crazy, you should be unhinged, not in a suit… you’re not interesting. Because you went to a high school where kids got shot? Why does that mean I have to listen to you?… You didn’t got shot, you pushed some fat kid in the way, and now I’ve gotta listen to you talking?
On fighting with his doctor:
‘You need to stop eating ice cream.’ I said, ‘You need to go f*ck yourself. And don’t ever touch me again, you old f*ggot. You old f*cking Jewish f*g. Get your f*cking hands off me.’ You’re f*cking with my ice cream, I get upset.
In addition to that, C.K. also went on a lengthy tirade about “retarded” people and made racist remarks about the difference in penis size between black, white, and Asian men.
Video of the set, which was performed on December 16, leaked online over the weekend. It has since been removed from YouTube, but not before sparking an outrage on Twitter.
To anyone who knows Louis CK, please deliver this message for me. My daughter was killed in the Parkland shooting. My son ran from the bullets. My wife and I deal with loss everyday. Why don't you come to my house and try out your new pathetic jokes? https://t.co/tZI9ThSciR

I feel absolutely disgusted that I use to think Louis C.K. was funny.

And by the way, Louis C.K., I can do jello shots, party my ass off with friends, and still have the wherewithal to give a damn about school shootings and trans folks being discriminated against by lazy, bigoted assholes.
We can multitask. We already are.

Comedy should be about punching up.
And masturbator-at-large Louis C.K. mocking the articulately outspoken teenagers from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School is the epitome of punching UP. pic.twitter.com/03BuLli3mj

The fact that Louis C.K admitted to sexually harassing women and then continues to use his platform to make fun of mass shooting survivors and non-binary people?? Who’s letting this man make money

Louis C.K. woke up and was like, "how can I harm MORE people!??"

I’m generally a believer in second chances for those who make amends for their wrongs. I don’t know that Louis C.K. ever made amends, regardless he’s spent all the chances I’ll ever give him. https://t.co/zrHsaToLf3

When he was at the height of his popularity, he always seemed like a creep to me. I called it years ago. My spidey senses went off, or something. He just carries a certain kind of aura of harsh meanness and sexism in his jokes. He’s brash in a way that’s not a punchline. He’s just a bitter man who wants to blame other people. I always knew, and I always wondered how he was able to reach the top in such a competitive industry. How didn’t more people see?
iamru2
As the late great Joan Rivers would say “ oh grow up”!
Kangol
Don’t forget his racism. He’s a toxic brew of vileness. His #Metoo moment snatched the “liberal” mask right off.
Chrisk
Yeah he’s crude and insensitive. Not my kind of humor but people need to lighten up.
Catholicslutbox
idk… those “jokes” are crossing one to many lines. remember when k-grif was dropped from multiple studios/venues for her hilarious decapitated trump head? …mostly because of bomb threats, but still.
if anything, he’s still a massive douche, there’s no argument there. wonder how he would’ve felt if he were the fat kid in that scenario.
Juanjo
No, we don’t. he has a right to say what he wants and we have the right to say what we think about what he says. That is how this works.
Hdtex
We don’t need to lighten up. This asshole’s ability to earn a living needs to be revoked.
Geeker
Louis CK was always a creepy asshole but now he’s just a gross mean-spirited and poisonously unfunny one.
prarie pup
I still think he is hilarious.
Hdtex
I still think you’re a douchebag.

What I find even more depressing than him being able to make a living saying this crap, is that people are willing to pay to listen to him and laugh at his disgusting comments. Welcome to Trumpworld boys and girls. Leave your humanity, morals and compassion at the door and enter at your own risk. “Fasten your seatbelts. It’s going to be a bumpy night”.

I listened to the entire 50 minute clip, he’s still funny as ever. Obviously this isn’t fully honed material ready for a special and there will be another special, since he has fans he continues to entertain. I found nothing offensive in that clip, cos they’re jokes. No one outside of that comedy club was supposed to hear it, cos as soon as it leaves the club it’s no longer a joke. It’s a potential headline, cos that’s the world we live in now. I’d say about 80% of all comics would be out of a job if you took their jokes as their actual opinions. The job of the comic is to make everyone in the room laugh and he very clearly accomplished that. If he toured these parts, I’d buy a ticket in a heartbeat, cos he’s always made me laugh and if you’ve seen his shows like Louie and Horace and Pete, you’d know he’s much more than just another comic.
Kangol
You found nothing offensive in the jokes about Asian men and Asian people? Really? You found nothing offensive in the weird, obsessive comments about Black men’s genitals? He’s clearly a sick racist creep who needs psychological help for his sexual inadequacy and anxiety, though he wouldn’t be alone in this, and maybe that’s hilarious to you, but I found it pathetic and disgusting, and hardly funny. And that doesn’t even touch the rest of the offensive crap he uttered. But if it gets you off to trash entire races of people, that says everything, and I hope you don’t utter a single word when someone starts trashing white people, especially white men. Because hey, it’s all humor and free speech and jokes etc., right?
Rock-N-RollHS
Didn’t love this bit, but love him. Can’t wait to catch him live again.
Luna1979
I never liked him as a comic, and these jokes listed here confirm I just don’t like his style.
HOWEVER
You absolutely have got to stop working yourselves up with indignation and hatred or it’s going to give you a heart attack.
It should work like this: man is an insane racist= I don’t buy a ticket=sucks to be him=the end. Then I eat a sandwich and move on because I knoooow that shutting him up will never locate the missing screw in his head and talking about him keeps him relevant.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
You instantly become a vile, abhorrent, noxious smcubag when you start trashing and attempting to extract “comedy” out of kids literaly running for their lives and watching in horror as their friends have their heads blown off…….
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
And then when you attack the kids who survived the Carnage actually begin to act like adults unlike the adults and try and do something to end the endless massacres of children.
The father of one of the survivors put it out there for this lowlife smcubag to come and tell his jokes to his family he lost a daughter and his and his son ran away from the bullets I doubt this cowardly prick would even venture into the town they live in

the audience loved it didnt hear one negative thing. i listened to it all..it made sense n was very similar to all of his previous work that i have enjoyed over the last ten years. am sure most of those who are most devastated on here have not watched his comedy before. i know what to do with comics i do not enjoy… i do not watch them
Greg
He is making jokes. That’s what comedians do. If you don’t like his sense of humor, don’t go see him.
