Actor and comedian Andy Richter’s take on cancel culture can be summed up in three words: Bring it on.
“It’s about time. It’s about time we stop saying lots of the things that we say and it’s about time that we stopped not caring about things that we say that we don’t have to say, like words that we don’t have to use,” Conan O’Brien’s sidekick tells host Andy Levy on this bonus episode of The New Abnormal podcast. “For the most part, people that have gotten in trouble deserve to get in trouble. And the whole point of it is, five years ago they wouldn’t have gotten in trouble. So this is good.”
[Prediction: It will be “good” right up to the moment that activists start perusing Richter’s jokes and public statements and do a Milkshake Duck on him, at which point it will be “unhinged.” — Ed]
