“He Seems Wounded”: John Oliver Responds After Elon Musk Said His Comedy Is Woke “Weak Sauce”
John Oliver has issued a typically playful response to Elon Musk after the billionaire X owner appeared to take umbrage with being roasted by the British comedian.
Last Week Tonight With John Oliver, which clinched another Emmy on Monday night, flamed Musk in a section last month, with Oliver joking that he “could pull off any bad guy in a movie.”
A couple of weeks later, Musk argued that the “otherwise capable” Oliver had become “weak sauce” in a post on the social media site formerly known as Twitter.

Greta Gerwig on Outraged Conservatives Burning Barbies
The 'Barbie' director gave her take on the right-wing backlash to the blockbuster film during an interview with the New York TimesGreta Gerwig’s Barbie grossed a record-breaking $155 million domestically — and $377 million internationally — in its first weekend. The blockbuster film also crushed right-wing efforts to boycott the film for its “man-hating” and “woke feminism,” and Barbie has since driven her pink Corvette over the delicate egos of outraged conservatives to score the biggest film debut of 2023.
While Gerwig didn’t anticipate the right-wing backlash, she continues to maintain that Barbie is for all. “Certainly, there’s a lot of passion,” the director told The New York Times when asked about conservatives who have taken to publicly burning Mattel dolls in protest. “My hope for the movie is that it’s an invitation for everybody to be part of the party and let go of the things that aren’t necessarily serving us as either women or men.”
She continued, “I hope that in all of that passion, if they see it or engage with it, it can give them some of the relief that it gave other people.”

Go woke, go broke!” encapsulates the schadenfreude that rightwing culture warriors express when art forms that embrace progressive ideals fail commercially. Such sentiment has been vanquished by the success of Spider-Man: Across the Spider‑Verse, which is currently the biggest film in the US, grossing more than half a billion dollars worldwide in a month. The animated movie, a sequel to 2018’s Oscar‑winning Into the Spider‑Verse, bounces around different universes meeting socially aware, racially diverse superheroes. The main character is African‑Latino Spider-Man, Miles Morales; Gwen Stacy’s Spidey endorses trans rights; there’s an Indian Spider‑Man with an anti‑colonial outlook living in a Mumbai‑Manhattan hybrid; and a pregnant biker Spider‑Woman. One of the film’s themes, spread over two hours of dazzling artwork, is how identity is a constant negotiation of race, class, nationality and gender.

Critique against wokeness is not about it's goals -- all of these things are self-evident.
The problem with wokeness is it's form, the way it functions socially in an extremely patronizing, authoritarian and oppressive way:
"I love being woke and everyone else who is not woke is an ignorant fucking twat."
You post this like its something attractive?
Fuck off you smug pieces of shit
