      Be sure to fact check before putting people on blast and ruining their reputation.

      The following comedians were openly critical of those who took the gig. These comedians DID NOT go. Okatsuka specifically revealed the details of the contract these comedians had to sign. Woods made a scathing video that went viral criticizing the lineup.

        Checked more than one outlet (apparently AI-written, since people like Maron are connected to it, but in a negative way) and came up with that conservative list.

        I am also surprised there is no official website I can find.

        Was gonna say, those exact names would be the people I expect to not go. Atsuko and Marc in particular would really surprise me.

        Yeah man, fuck. Saw his jpg-artifact-face on the Cross response linked in the thread and just thought, no, cannot be right. And here we are. So now there were two terrible people on the Mandalorian show, damn.

          He always seemed to be a principled ass, but I guess enough money can change that.

          Yeah, I’m not sure why people are surprised he’s a POS. Someone told me to watch a special show of his and first thing he was punching down on trans people. Fuck him.

      Shane Gillis and Atsuko Okatsuka turned the invitation down.

      Atsuko has been outspoken about it and Shane said on his podcast he wouldn’t work for the people who did 9/11.

        It’s been even worse since he got back and has been defending it. His supposed defenses make it so much worse for me.

      Okatsuka turned the offer down, Patel changed his mind, and Maron not only wasn’t asked but has been outspokenly against the entire thing for like a month

      Do you even know what’s being discussed lol

          Nice, thanks for taking the time to update. It’s been tough to find a good source and it’s not like these comedians are looking to publicize it either

        People have a habit of repeating things they see from others. For instance you saw six other people made this same type of comment and you still made yours. So it’s probably just like that.

      Whew, I was worried! But that’s an easy list to boycott. Never listened to any of them because they all sucked as comedians anyway.

      C-list, tops.
