I think it’s going to lead to a lot of positive things.”

Burr said the restrictions on what comedians could say had been softened by the festival after some back and forth (Burr didn’t specify with whom). “I made the decision to play there in spite of that.

“I am well aware of the Uzbek president’s appalling reputation in the field of human rights as well as the environment,” Sting said at the time.

"That's a little long, don't you think? I thought this place was going to be really tense. That whole segment was misogynistic trash just like the 'Karen' nonsense."

Another added, "Bill Burr is trash and has always been trash. Definitely top three experiences I’ve had.

Comedian Bill Burr lights up cancel culture, gay pride in blistering 'SNL' monologue — and ignites a Twitter firestorm

Comedian Bill Burr shredded cancel culture during his monologue on "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, joking that the movement had gotten out of control.

Who approved that monologue?"

Another user wrote, "The fact some of you can't even admit Bill Burr was wrong for calling women b***hes is problematic as f*** because I be damn if my dead grandmother is a b***h when she voted for Hillary Clinton and worked her damn hardest to protect her black grandkids!!!"

Yet another added, "Before yesterday I had no clue who Bill Burr was & I wish I didn't know now.

This is really amazing.’ And it was just this great exchange of energy.

One user wrote, "Bill Burr's monologue segment re: WW wasn't anything to be celebrated and I'm again disappointed at Black folks aligning with gendered insults just to take digs at white women. They got a fucking Chili’s over here!”

Once onstage at the Riyadh show, Burr kept pushing his material and crowd banter further and further — including doing a bit about gay men at the gym — until he was eventually performing his regular act.

… [Then the agent says], ‘You tell jokes about the Middle East? "Somehow, white women swung their Gucci-footed feet over the fence of oppression and stuck themselves at the front of the line."

What are angry people saying about this? Neither did the idea of a man promulgating the suggestion that women lie about being sexually assaulted – a persistent myth which has caused women to be disbelieved and silenced throughout history.

However, others thought that the fact that he was a white man meant he was more likely to be heard, and that him using such a huge mainstream platform to highlight the issues facing people of colour was to be celebrated.

You never talked to your grandparents and brought up the wrong subject? The comedians that I’ve been talking to are saying, ‘Dude, you can feel [the audience] wanted it. A boat? “When they first set it up, the rules on what they had about what you could and couldn’t say in Saudi Arabia, [organizers were told], ‘If you want some good comedians, this isn’t going to work.’ And, to their credit, they said, ‘All right, what do we got to do?’ And they just negotiated it all the way down to just a couple things, which were, basically: Don’t make fun of royals [and] religion.” (The speech restrictions were posted online by comedian Atsuko Okatsuka, who turned down the festival’s offer to attend, and it’s unclear if these were the rules from before or after the talks.)

Burr first described going to the island country of Bahrain — which is more socially liberal than Saudi Arabia — where a customs agent immediately clocked his anxiety about doing stand-up in the region and gave him grief about it.

“When I was landing in Bahrain, like I’m fucking nervous, right? They want to see real stand-up comedy.’ It was a mind-blowing experience. Everyone was happy. We can never again take seriously anything these comedians complain about.”

MSNBC opinion writer Zeeshan Aleem accused the performers of participating in “comedy-washing” in an op-ed, describing the event as “an insidious tool to project a misleading image of the country’s incremental efforts to liberalize … this comedy festival functions fundamentally as propaganda, allowing the country to falsely present an image of an open society when, in fact, the government remains hostile to democratic civil liberties tied to freedom of speech and assembly.”

There is a long history of debate on this issue, weighing a refusal to normalize and endorse an authoritarian regime versus the benefits of exposing such cultures to Western values and fostering a sense of openness.
