Louis C.K was who was accused of sexual misconduct by five women in 2017. Now a leaked recording of the stand-up comedian’s new show features C.K. having a go at non-binary people and the survivors of shootings in schools. Listener discretion is advised.
“I‘m 51 years old, and when I was in my 20s, we were idiots, we were getting high, doing mushrooms and shit and older people were like ‘you better get your shit together’ and we were like ‘f**k you’,” C.K. says in the clip below.
“I was kind of excited to be in my 50s and see people in their 20s and be like ‘you’re crazy’…but they’re not’. The comedian then likens young people to “old ladies”.
Focusing on those who identify as gender-neutral, C.K. describes them as, “like royalty, they tell you what to call them. ‘You should address me as they/them, because I identify as gender-neutral.’ Oh okay, well you should address me as there because I identify as a location.”
The comedian then comments on survivors of school shootings, “They testify in front of Congress these kids. What are you doing? You’re young, you should be crazy, you should be unhinged, not in a suit saying ‘I’m here to tell’… f**k you. You’re not interesting because you went to a high school where kids got shot.”

Online social media commentary compared C.K. to The United States President Donald Trump. One Twitter user said the comedian was “basically Donald Trump”, citing C.K’s apparent inability to acknowledge any wrongdoing of both the president or himself.
what Louis CK makes me think about is how easy and safe it is for just about any rich white dude to pivot, instantaneously, all the way to being Basically Donald Trump Now the very moment any other pose becomes even slightly less personally gratifying than he feels entitled to
