The titans of late-night comedy are tumbling from their pedestals, one by one. As Americans reject the poison that’s infected our entertainment, even the loudest liberal voices are starting to notice. But here’s the thing—what happens when those same voices refuse to look in the mirror?
Something big is happening in Hollywood right now. The late-night shows that used to bring us together? They’re dying. And you know what? The hosts are finally figuring out why. Well, sort of.
Jimmy Kimmel went on the “Sarah Silverman Podcast” recently and said something shocking. He admitted that “repulsive” liberal voices are driving people away from the Democratic Party. (Yes, really!) He said these voices “scare people from saying what they believe and make you think twice about a joke or whatever.” He even said—get this—that liberals attacking comedians helped Trump become president again.
A Mirror He Won’t Look Into
Here’s what gets me. The same guy complaining about “repulsive” liberal rhetoric? He’s one of the worst offenders! Remember COVID? This is what Kimmel said about unvaccinated Americans:
From ‘The Post Millennial’:
Following his latest comments, critics on social media pointed to Kimmel’s own controversial statements that could repel voters from turning to the left. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Kimmel suggested on his show that unvaccinated patients should be denied hospital treatment in favor of vaccinated patients.
“Vaccinated people having a heart attack? Yes, come right on it. Unvaccinated guy who gobbled horse goo? Rest in peace, weezy,” he said, drawing applause from the audience.
Can you believe this guy? He wanted hospitals to let people die. That’s not comedy. That’s sick.
But wait, there’s more. When Kamala Harris had terrible approval ratings in 2021, did Kimmel think maybe she was bad at her job? Nope! He blamed “sexism and racism.” Because apparently, if you don’t like a politician, you’re a bigot. This is exactly the kind of garbage that makes people turn off their TVs.
The Late-Night Reckoning
Kimmel’s wake-up call comes at a perfect time. His buddy Stephen Colbert just got canceled. The show ends in May. Years of bad ratings finally caught up with him. President Trump even said Kimmel might be “next” to get the ax. (I wouldn’t bet against Trump on this one.)
The writing is on the wall, people. Americans are done being lectured by entertainers who hate half the country. Even Sarah Silverman—not exactly a conservative—called out her own party for being “incredibly elitist.” When you’ve lost Sarah Silverman, you know you’ve got problems.
What kills me is Kimmel still won’t admit he’s part of the problem. He says it’s not “the party” or “the majority” causing issues. Just the “loud voices.” Jimmy, buddy, you ARE one of those loud voices! You’ve spent years dividing Americans. Now you’re surprised people are divided?
This isn’t just about bad TV ratings. It’s bigger than that. Americans are saying “enough is enough.” We don’t want politics with our comedy. We don’t want hosts who think we’re stupid. We want to laugh again—together.
As Hollywood crumbles, maybe there’s hope. Maybe we’ll get entertainment that doesn’t insult half of America. People have voted with their remote controls. The message? Keep your lectures. We just want the laughs.
The only question left is simple. Will Kimmel finally look in that mirror? Or will he keep blaming everyone else while his show circles the drain? My money’s on option two.
