90% of his monologue was self-deprecating, including the premise of the joke everyone is talking about. The over-reaction is ridiculous. It was a stupid joke. People are so soft, and the fake outrage is. . . fake. There are no victims here.

I have no idea who he is because I only follow comedians from the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, but I don't think I've been missing anything with this guy.

Didn't realize he was a comedian. Totally not funny, the silence in the audience proved it wasn't just me at home finding him bad.

Can never remember this guy's name. Saw him once before hosting. He's kinda trashy, but his main problem is that he's rather mediocre. When you get to host SNL you're suppose to be a talented comedian, actor or something. He belongs in a comedy club in Albuquerque.

the funniest part of his monologue is where he says he was at a gym; pretty sure he meant standing outside, leering at women through the window while eating a slim jim.

Agree 100% this dude sucks and isn’t funny but the way some of ya’ll jump so fast to fat shaming as a response also kinda sucks.

Pretty sure it was a reference to Trump saying that to a reporter on Air Force One that asked him a question about the Epstein files. It was a reference to her weight. I’ve also seen some other guys dunking on this clown’s weight as a means of standing up for women. Better ways to be an ally IMO.

I’m familiar with the original context, this is the reporter he directed the comment towards It’s likelier that it was based in misogyny than body-shaming, the reporter is quite thin

Fatphobia is rooted in white supremacist, patriarchal aesthetics. You cannot use one form of oppression to critique another. Shane Gilis is a misogynist and that's why he's a bad person, not because of his weight.

OMG, I still go on Twitter from time to time and the men that minimize, excuse and straight out support what Gillis is selling sickens me. At least I'm having fun calling them out and making that vein in their temple explode. No death threats yet but one deportation threat. Lol.

It’s amazing that, had he been born with Down syndrome, he would be a loving and beautiful person. Instead, he became a heartless piece of shit.
