Jerry Seinfeld is a washed up comedian, who cares what his opinions on international geopolitics is???

Queue clip of Jimmy gervais, telling all of those Hollywood idiots to take their little Grammy and stfu because they know nothing about the real world.

[–] Glytch@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago

Add this to his bitching about no one finding him funny anymore when his humor hasn't changed since '86. He's just trying to stave off irrelevance. The last great thing he did was a movie about bestiality (BEEstiality).

Man now I can’t watch Seinfeld anymore? Why people got to do this?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 43 minutes ago)

Yeah you can, just remember Larry David and the other writers who actually made it good.

Edit: and the cast! So many iconic performances.

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 1 points 2 hours ago

You can watch it, it’s even a little better than Family Guy later seasons.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Because some people are jerks who don't want better people to enjoy life. Especially out of touch billionaires like Seinfeld.

[–] Zozano@aussie.zone 25 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

What's the deal with black people? They're not black, and they're not people.

-Jerry Seinfeld (probably)

[–] kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Jerry has been a salty prick ever since people figured out the writers did all the heavy lifting on his show.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

probably none to happy that him being a fuckin pedophile became widespread news either.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

No, surprisingly I don't think that bothered him. Otherwise he would not have made this joke.

[–] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 20 points 1 day ago

Oh look everyone. It's the "airline food" guy who peaked in the 90s. He has a political opinion.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 61 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Jerry Seinfeld is a pedophile

[–] rayyy@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

Jerry Seinfeld is a pedophile

You don't say.

[–] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is this why he's trying to distract us from the Epstein files?

[–] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 10 points 22 hours ago

I'd be surprised if he wasn't on the list.

"What's the deaaal with unfunny, stupid comedians?"

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why do they keep trying to fuzz the terminology?

Zionists and Jews are not the same thing. They have very little in common.

[–] curious_dolphin@slrpnk.net 11 points 22 hours ago

Because they're dishonest; unfortunately, it's very effective in shutting down public conversations about what's happening over there.

[–] Ron@zegheteens.nl 32 points 1 day ago

Sorry Jerry but I don't hate Jews but I hate the government of Israel

[–] mhague@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago

"Just say you hate Jews. Just tie me up and say Jews should die. Spank me and call me an evil little Jew. You know you want to."

"Mr Seinfeld, children are starving."

[–] canajac@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 day ago

So. after WW2 Jewish people can obliterate an entire population just because they were attacked. boohoohoo What if the USA did the same thing in Vietnam, Korea, Afganistan, Iraq, etc? How is starving civilians to death is this fucking right Israel? You are making yourselves the new German Party of 1933. Netanyahu is the new Hitler. He ignores the international community, just like Hitler, kills innocents and does not admit it, just like Hitler. He kills starving children ffs. How low do you want to go Israel before you become what you've feared for 80 years? It's an international disgrace. Even trump is telling you to stop now, I mean WTF dudes?

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Not really related but I'm having the weirdest time because I got on FB for the first time in a decade, and learned an old friend has transitioned and looks to be much happier now, so I'm excited, but their feed is FULL of zionist propaganda and it appears her entire identity is wrapped up in this now, so accepting her request would be a time bomb. Fuck, why everything gotta be this way now.

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 12 points 1 day ago

So are you transphobe OR antisemitic? Sorry but you have to pick one

[–] biotin7@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 day ago

Let me make it simple; You genocide, you lose. So cut off communication if you wish, but first attempt to reason

Good thing I don’t take advice from pedos who "date" 17-year-olds when they’re 39 😃

If anything good has come of this Israel-Palestine conflict thing, it has been exposing idiots.

“By saying ‘Free Palestine,’ you’re not admitting what you really think,” said Seinfeld, who publicly embraces his Jewish heritage and has pushed back against critics of Israel.

“Just say you don’t like Jews,” he said in reference to the movement, before comparing its supporters to members of the KKK.

In that spirit, Jerry, maybe you should say what YOU really think. You’re a genocide apologist. Embrace it, instead of putting words in other peoples mouths.

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

Calling critics of a state and a polity racists is some high level bullshit

Did you criticise the Nazis? Pretty sure that means you hate all modern day Germans /s

Fuck him! He’s a horrid human, pedophile, and pos to his “fans”.. like all 10 of them. He’s more irrelevant than any “news” the right owned media pushes out! Keep firing people for freedom of speak and find out real quick… new gen’s aren’t that dumb as MAGATS we have critical thinking skills and know what’s truly going on; distract all you want, but we know the GOP’s are all pedophiles!!

**RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!! **
