Bo Burnham on political correctness in comedy
Вставка

- At 16, Bo Burnham became a viral sensation by uploading comedy videos on UA-cam. Now 25, Burnham has a stand-up comedy special on Netflix called, "Bo Burnham: Make Happy." In this interview with "CBS This Morning: Saturday" co-host Anthony Mason, Burnham explains why he's not pressured by political correctness and how he sees it as an "overcorrection for a serious problem."
I like how the interviewer hardly spoke or interrupted
That's a fundamental rule of interviewing, and true professionals always follow it.
and when he did i couldn’t hear him
it’s so rare to see
@@mikeyytu9283 lkkmllm.
@@charbelalam2648 And that's precisely it. Anthony Mason was doing an *interview*, not bringing in someone to disagree with him so he can shout over them. That lack of ego is so refreshing and so what society is missing.
I love how Bo Burnham is like, THE ONLY Hollywood celebrity/comedian who actually understands what the internet is as a public entity.
@@clockworkcrew8012 Quite clearly he has, I mean he basically reinforced this view in Inside.
Didn’t Bo get started on YT? It would make sense if he knows the internet well having grown in it.
Especially after Inside, it shows how he has changed to appease this public entity
@@redshiftcomplx2652 No, he really hasn't
@@geobeeblaster5602 Ok
Such a good egg. That guy has the potential to become one of the greats one day.
He already is

I disagree with that. He's nowhere near the brilliance and finesse of Louie ck's stand up, Carlin, or any other of the major names in stand up comedy. When I say one of the greats, I mean one of the truly great, and he's definitely on the path, but he's still got some walking to do.
+christian almli If you really think he is worse or not as clever as Louis Ck, you didn't understand anything that Bo made so far.
christian almli
Watch Make Happy and What. a few more times and actually read into it. Even his Words Words Words special was brilliant. He's very introspective and very self-aware. He's revolutionized stand up in it's own unique way.
SkEpTiC Legacy
no, he didn't revolutionize standup. Yes, he's very self aware and introspective, but to say he revolutionized standup is a massive falsehood.
people who "just aren't PC" act like it's worse to be offended than to be a racist
bo seems like such a thoughtful and good person btw
Love your profile picture
No, it's worse than being rational non-egotistical person (the "offense" you take never solves anything btw--ironically it only harms people who AREN'T actually racist while rolling off the back of anyone who is). Being a racist isn't even part of the situation. There's no racist present--just someone who told a joke. You're fighting an imaginary enemy to make yourself feel good.
@@Vote_By_Mail I think you should reread the comment
I have to echo the first response here, you equate being offended with being correct or having the moral high ground which just is not the case. For me, anything should be allowed within the context of a joke, nothing off limits. People are allowed to be offended and people are allowed to offend. I don't know why we go to such lengths to protect "hurt feelings" (which is what being offended is) this day and age. nothing happened, it was just words. That is my view anyway. People should not be getting cancelled or losing their career because they made a joke that the woke mob deemed not allowed in their tyrannical world of policing peoples views and speech. At least that's my take. If a majority truly found something so vulgar or offensive then well, the person saying it would not get very far without cleaning up their act.
It's actually the "PC" people who attribute great importance to "being offended". In the eyes of many of these people, the fact that you are offended immediately implies that the person who offended you is in the wrong. Which is silly.
can bo give us some book with no jokes, just honest opinions?
Why not both?
BigBird Music
Because the jokes may confuse the message.
As opposed to fake ones
Old comment, but he doesn't value his own opinion to do that at the moment. He feels that there are a lot of intellectuals who are much more well equipped than he is. But anytime I've heard him speak seriously I honestly think he should express his honest opinions more than he does. I read plenty of intellectuals and not many are as insightful as he is.
His honest opinions would naturally result in some jokes.
"That's part of the gamble of what performing is...it is meant to be interpreted in any way it can."
For some reason I had never thought of it this (absolutely correct in my opinion) way
That's.... Just simply not true. And I have a feeling if Bo hadn't been the one to say it, you wouldn't have praised it like you did.
@Bob if they are wrong it will be proven so, that’s how media analysis works. Media literacy is a skill that needs to be practiced, because you cannot judge a work based solely on the intention of the creator.
Reactions to comedy (as with other personally created art forms) are subjective. People can have unpopular feelings or reactions to bits, but what he said about comedy's ability to be interpreted in any way it can be is accurate.
Holy shit he hit the nail on the head.
When he said no comedians were going to jail for a joke? Count Dankula would beg to differ.
This was posted in 2016 well before that whole affair
Wrong is wrong and his downplay on censorship being historically dangerous is ignorant.
@@Strikeoutking getting banned off of Twitter (a PRIVATE company) is not censorship.
@@ytmndan
I don’t mind the guy, but to call him a comedian is a bit much.
His mom is a hospice nurse? That explains a lot about how he's so grounded, but he's also extremely intelligent.
Between his music, his singing ability, and his wit he's one of the most talented people I've seen in a long time.
Oh yea he's definitely had moments where seeing his mom completely desensitized to death, that she can come home from something so human but so tragic and just make dinner, has had a profound effect on humbling him and his understanding of life
It also explains how doing FaceTime right is the least of her worries 😂
My Aunt is a hospice nurse and she is a stone cold psychopath. It goes both ways.
YES!! This was the first time I heard about his moms job and it kind of just summed up his nihilism
Probably the most multi-talented comedian/actor/anything he tries his hand at since Jamie Foxx.
how crazy is it that Bo understood al this at 25 before cancel culture popularized and yet he is still pretty much correct, yet a lot of comedians that are far more experienced than him seem to be so childish about it and totally misunderstand it all, bo is a GOAT
It's not a good opinion to have though. It is objectively worse to have a progressive crowd then, say, a crowd from 1990 which laughed at racist jokes.
He makes the fundamental false assumption that these leftist smear merchants are somehow tolerant when they are the least tolerant people on earth.
Actually he was just a KID when he started doing comedy
Like when he said the pendulum "swung a little too far but it's in a good direction, it'll correct itself". Still waiting for that correction. I don't see how anyone is so much of a mental bottom they feel like they DESERVE to be oppressed because other people are. This is just another "I'm a hero" stance.
@@intercoursehandguns851 It already has. Cancel culture is nothing like it was in 2018ish.
Its not an "I'm a hero" stance... its simply an opinion with... go figure, a little bit of nuance. I guess that is shocking for some people to hear in a world where everyone is totally politically polarized. Not everything is "the liberals fault"... and not everything is "the republicans" fault.
I always just stare at his hair and want to comb it.
That explains your last name.
Jonathon Combs I wanna jonathon combs your hair
Live by the Combs, die by the Combs.
Just realised I've been legit imagining combing his hair lol. Thanks
Jonathon Combs you might be gay
This hits a little different after Inside.
This is a genius take on it.
He would probably not agree with this take now. That was one of the main points of Inside, and actually him only making jokes about white people is following critical race theory. Rac-ism is a system defined by race, in favor of one race over another. The racists would then be the people who benefit from the system favoring their race, and they defend the system because it works for them, creating some racist justification like black people are criminals. You cannot be racist against racists though, as the system benefits them. You can't be racist towards white people as white people will still benefit by being shot by cops less, possessing generational wealth, and being trusted more, no matter what one person says about them.. If you are racist to black people you are perpetuating the the system of racism that already exists, you are buying into the system that wants you to believe that, spreading the lie to others, then making you a racist. Some songs as evidence: white woman Instagram, comedy, thats how the world works, and welcome to the internet. And Just so everyone knows, yes, the typical use of racism how you know, discrimination on race, is a thing, but when we are talking about society, culture, and nations, this is the accepted and widely practiced academic theory. We don't live in an equal system, we still live in a racist one, where racism disproportionately affects some more than others, and we must acknowledge that so we can fix the issue, demolishing any racial structure we find. Then with no race structure, where there is full equality, no one could be racist, then you could joke about whatever you want. But until then, jokes that would support the racial-class structure of our society, are racist.
@@clockworkcrew8012 how long did it take you to write this my god

@@clockworkcrew8012 "Racism is a system-"
I'm gonna stop you right there, no it isn't.
@@gingermlg so what makes you think you even know, because you obviously don't. Dissecting the word racism, the -ism is defined as a system, and based on race. The world is based on societal systems, and all racism is systemic. Society reflects the attitudes of individuals, as all systems are formed on individual components. Capitalism is a system in favor of capital. These are the scientific breakdowns of the words that you would know yourself if you actually did any sort of research on it.
Burnham pretty much hits the nail on the head here and BIll Burr has similar view where the people that feel offended are such a small minority that who cares what they say? As Burr puts it, it's like 1 blog and some tweets, why not just ignore that vocal minority for like a week and it just disappears w/ no consequence. Burnham's point about the pendulum swinging in the right direction is also a very good point. While SJW and political correctness has gone too far, right now it still better than decades ago when racism and misogyny were accepted. We just have to hope the political correctness doesnt get too out of hand that it infringes on free speech like Burnham says.
Small minority =/= small influence. "offense takers" aren´t the silent majority but they have a more influence than blogs and tweets, people are losing their jobs, policy and law is catering to them, politicians are using their talking points etc. If it were possible to just ignore, like one mostly does one would, but it´s not possible because they have too much power.
"We just have to hope the political correctness doesn´t get too out of hand that it infringes on free speech"
Where have you been for the last few years?
Alessandro Scuderi We've always had "Political Correctness" (Hate that word). People pretend as if its brand new thing. Like Bo saids, the thought behind PC is not bad. The problem with now is everything going viral. We make PC too much of a problem, and THATS why it becomes a problem. Ghostbusters blew up because it went viral. They marketed towards the fact that so many people are PC and to the people that hate it. The fact that we HATE anything PC is part of the problem as well. Ironically enough, you have people offended because people get offended. Its all media bullshit.
Please remind me jay, which comedians have been put in jail because of their jokes??
This whole "SJW culture is infringing on free speech" is bullshit because nobody goes to jail or gets arrested because of it.
People like Milo fucking think they're some kind of martyr for free speech because they were banned from twitter, when twitter has every right to ban who they please. And again, Milo isn't in jail.
cuz bill is a boston asshole not a well spoken millennial
trust me ive met boston assholes lol that why ive seen bill's specials 100's of times haha

Crazy how he’s only 30, he’s built such a career and has a cult following by the time he was 30, most comedians would get their big break on something like SNL in their late 30s
I think you have a misunderstanding of the age of the cast on SNL
I know you don't like to oversaturate yourself Bo but please keep some content coming. Every time i hear you speak it gives me a bit of hope and that isn't always so easy to find.
steven cross he said after he made his last special he might be finished
he might go into other mediums, like ones that still involve writing, i.e. movies, tv, books, etc.
He stopped because he wasn’t feeling happy, he was making others happy but he wasn’t happy himself
steven cross Same here, man.
He has a movie now.
"My mom is a hospice nurse" as someone who did a super light version of that job for less than a year, I think a lot of things about Bo's work just clicked into place for me.
would you please elaborate?
This is two and a half minutes of someone having the right takes on every aspect of the issue.
The "having their lives ruined by twitter!1!1!1" just doesn't exist though. That's kinda stupid ngl
@@yellowcactustvz4929 I'd say that it's exaggeration to say that people's lives actually are *ruined*, but people can be pretty brutally harassed on Twitter by a self-righteous crowd of people who tend not to see nuance.

@@andrewkohler3707 Bo acting like these people have power lol
So glad someone can see that " Being PC " isn't the end of the world - and while sure, the extreme is a frightening theoretical, the Anti-PC argument winds up as a worse alternative which tends to just be people looking for an excuse to whip out the n-word. Glad to see a comic willing to push it while acknowledging sense - proud to be a fan of your work, Burnham!
Anti PC is better than being PC. Understand that, now go back to your liberal colleges.
Izzy You are not helping it. Even though I agree that Political Correctness is a nightmare these days.
Jaime how edgy of you
@@blobber51 The problem with that, which I think Bo stated really well, is that by being anti political correctness we risk reverting to a time where it was common and okay to have racist, sexist, and homophobic points of view. While over policing of speech is a problem, it's better than the alternative which devalues years of progress. Political correctness also isn't a new thing. It's always been relevant in younger generations. It's the reason we no longer use the f slur and the reason we no longer call black people negros. The civil rights movement, women's suffrage movement, and gay rights movement were all filled with people of the now older generations whose views were seen by their elders in a similar way to how our views are seen now. Society evolves with time and political correctness is part of that. Plus, if a word makes someone around you uncomfortable and it costs you nothing to not say it then the only reason you could have to say it is to be rude or for satire to make fun of people who say it seriously... People have the right to be upset at that in the same way you have the right to say it.
@@blobber51 lmao

the ‘idea’ of him? Why are you talking about him like he’s some hypothetical entity
"How do you not understand that the audience has the same impulse that you do?"
Or to paraphrase Katt Wiliams, if you are an artist of substance, you adapt. The problem is that too many standups are one-trick ponies who rail against people messing with their one trick.

Good rule of thumb: A joke has to be more funny than it is offensive. Problems arise when a joke isn't funny enough to carry its offensiveness. If its not funny its a statement, not a joke.
Comedy:
A subjective form of entertainment
Madtim:
"If it doesn't fit my exact definition of Funny, it's not a joke, its a statement"
That's an incredibly egotistical perspective. It's gotta be the worst take I've heard on the whole "comedians are scared of political correctness" debate.
even if it isn't funny a joke is a joke, comedians just try and get their panties in a bunch when people don't laugh at their jokes that consist entirely of: "look at how offensive what Im saying is, isn't this so funny?"

Wow. It's almost surreal to see someone talk sensibly about this issue.
Bo Burnham is an amazing comic. "Words words words" is one of the 5 best hours of comedy ever. It's a brilliant piece of art.
i haven’t heard one bad take come out of this man’s mouth
I KNOW
this is the best answer to this question I have ever heard.
This is so cut to pieces. I'd like to see the unedited version. It's very hard to follow
I love how he differentiated things and how he gives the young people a chance.
"Horrifying and violent." Wonderful and accurate way to describe the internet.
He makes such a good point, like how are people who are literally paid to speak for hours on end complaining about their "freedom of speech" being restricted someone else exercises theirs?
yay a new Bo interview! well spoken as usual
I couldn't agree more with his sentiment here.
It's crazy how intelligent and well spoken he is
Such an important distinction to make between the unrestrained power of the internet and groups trying to figure out how to navigate the best way to treat other people and sensitive issues. A lot of people do conflate the two and I've never seen someone articulate that distinction exactly. Like "cancel culture" where people on Twitter will try to run you out of a job for whatever reason is not the same as the movement to be more pc or to be sensitive about issues and minority groups' struggles
Never heard of this guy until today.
Then again, I live under a rock
Dear CBS where can I listen the whole video or audio without being scattered in bits?
Neptune Joo welcome to the mainstream media: sound bites galore.

"No comedian has been thrown in jail"
As a Count Dankula fan I would like to disagree
He had to pay a small fine. That's not being thrown in jail. Also how are you blaming a young audience for laws set up by Gen X and boomer politicians?
@@mnm1273 800 pounds is not a small fine, and I wasn't, I was making a joke about how Bo Burnham was wrong
@@oddguys178 But Bo Burnham was clearly saying the thing within a context which was cancelled culture. He was never suggesting that comedians have never gotten into any form of legal trouble linked to their jokes ever.
@@oddguys178 And yes 800 pounds is a small fine. For something that can go to court anything under a grand is undoubtedly small.
@@mnm1273 alright, since you want to argue, the laws are very clearly heavily influenced by cancel culture. People get fined for making jokes that could possibly offend protected groups, which is basically the legal form of cancel culture.
I half expected to hear him talk about how PC culture is the death of modern society, so I was really apprehensive about clicking this video. I was proven wrong. I love him. LOVE HIM.

That is SO well stated
Where can I watch his full interview?
anything and everything, all of the time
this feels like a therapy session lmao
I think he put it really well, and I also completely agree
So glad to see how's changed over the years. I really felt like he grew up with me, and now I understand that my racist, edgey humor was nothing more than a coping mechanism and an attempt to make friends with other edgey racists, and he seemed to understand himself in his new special. I hope he gets better again so that he can teach the world more.
He really seems to be doing a lot better mentally post-Inside and I couldn’t be more happy for him and all that he’s accomplished up until this point. He showed up to Phoebe Bridgers’ concert where she’s been performing his beautiful song “That Funny Feeling” and he looked so happy to see his fans singing along and just the impact he really has on the world around him.
@@daniellavaladez7820 I did see that. It made me happy that he was happy.
I love how he says “if it infringes on free speech and stuff, I’m against it” because it feels like the media is trying to get rid of some peoples free speech and it’s not as important of a right in America to a lot of people at the moment. As a 17 year old girl, seeing other people shut someone else up temporarily or permanently because they have a differing opinion on something scares me.
Media companies have pretty much always been privately owned. If you’re concerned about them controlling free speech, then your problem is with the free market. They’ve always been controlling the news, and they do so to make money. The only difference is that other info that they don’t cover can now go viral and contrast with their typical narratives. They aren’t getting more manipulative, everyone else is just getting louder, so we’re realizing the picture is a lot bigger. Problem is that now everyone is confused and disagreeing more than ever about what’s real.
Exactly, a celebrity can be part of [insert political party that Hollywood don’t agree with here] and next hour, career is over. Hollywood pays their stars to be part of [insert “good” political party here]. It’s not natural for all of those people to all suddenly be part of the [also insert “good” political party here]. And if people ain’t part of said party, they lose their whole career.

Aged like fine wine
so the person who sat down and edited this did not notice that you can actually not hear the questions.. do you employ anyone who wants to work there?
This reminds me of a quote. I can't remember where it came from or who said it, but here's what it is:
*"The only offensive jokes are ones that aren't funny."*
Comedians are at the Highest point of Our Evolution...No one gets Hurt..Everyone Grows!🍒
Damn, this aged like milk.
I want Bo burnham to host Starurday night live so bad!!!!!!!
I think that this is the older generation of Hollywood (everyone who’s careers peeked and who are not standing out currently) are coming to the realization that although they are getting a pushback for potentially hurtful and insensitive jokes and styles of entertainment, they are also realizing that at least this pushback is coming from a side standing for equality rather than a side of fascism and ignorance... they are also realizing that the currier institutions in society that these comedians brought to light and are continuing to do so, are now taken seriously by the masses. It’s a beautiful thing and speaks to the amount of influence specifically comedy and music have on the population
This is perfect.

I don't know anything about Bo Burnham,but going on the thumbnail picture to this video i expected him to speak with some type of British accent.
Joe Rogan has been hit so hard by PC Culture that he's had to make million-dollar stand up specials explaining how he can't say anything anymore...
It's like the Lisa Kudrow part in "Death to 2020" where her character repeats how conservative voices are being silenced on many different talk shows, platforms, and even a book.
He’s never had a bit speaking on anything like that pseudo moralist kook
@@m_milos yes Gina Carano doesn’t exist, totally
He takes a much more mature approach to this topic then a lot of his senior comedian colleagues.
That's because he's never been burned. One day he will say something that will land him in hot water, then he'll start crying for sympathy. He's safe now because he plays it safe.
@@RichWilco I dont really agree with that. I know people have gotten pissy over his comedy before, you can find videos of him being heckled during his shows in the past. I think too many people are being pissy cry babies cause they dont get to say whatever without any repercussions. Obviously not every case is the same, some people do over react but you cant pretend that every instance of outrage is unwarranted. Shrug it off and move forward or quit because comedy isnt for you if you cant handle crossing a line sometimes and getting back lash for it.
The best take.
Omg yes. This is exactly what I say all the time. Thank you, Bo Burnham!
I wish I had his words
This guy's funny, he should become a comedian
creds to bo for being so down to earth and reasonable when talking about this. I feel like people that can find a middle ground regardless of what their political views are can be the key to calming these internet shitstorms
agreed, as a fellow minority of everything and 16.
Foreshadowing "Comedy" from Inside lol.
Since watching Inside, I’ve been watching every interview and podcast of him I can find and it’s crazy how so much of what he’s spoken out about in over the years in terms of themes got carried over into Inside. And just how much he’s grown and changed throughout the years I feel is amazing.
I've always believed this. People get called cancelled but continue to be fine in their respective spaces? Also pretending like your comedy is the end all be all, but maybe it's racist? Maybe its not funny? Maybe that's ok and you could grow from it.
Everyone gets upset and puts “cookout “ all over the internet but they don’t show you this
For real. Or they act like they somehow “discovered” it or like this was new. Like the man didn’t leave it up on his own page as a way to hold himself accountable. If you’ve been a fan of Bo’s for even just a little bit we all already knew because it’s been on his page and he apologized in many interviews.
He wrote it when he was 16, it was obviously satire mocking racists, and he’s also apologized for it MANY many times over the years. People are rediculous.
quite literally the thoughts in my head that i can not for the life of me explain to words, just came out of his mouth so perfectly and directly that it was like some sorta weight got lifted off my shoulders
I guess Bo needed to be introduced to one Mark Meechan.
He’s such an amazing, smart, beautiful soul. INSIDE is one of the best performances arts I’ve ever seen from a guy alone in his house for a year with a camera
This is why we love him
Is this at Largo?
he's a special kind of white guy
He’s self-reflected and he wants to be an agent of change
The people saying "this aged like milk" or "he's supporting cancel culture" did you watch the first 3 seconds and pause to comment? He specifically calls out things like cancel culture 4 years ago when it was much smaller at 1:53. Saying they are horrible and jobs being lost and lives being ruined is objectively bad. The people in this comment section are being the offended babies they want so desperately not to be
