Jerry Seinfeld Thinks WOKENESS Is Why He's Irrelevant Now

[Midnight Writer]

8. Jerry has reached the price point where he can't be edgy.

Any project he works on will cost millions to produce, partly because of his pay demands.

Backers who put up that kind of money expect a maximum return on their investment.

Therefore, backers willing to pay Jerry's performance fee do not want him to alienate portions of the audience with edgy humor.

If jerry wants to be edgy, he can go to a comedy club, accept a small paycheck, and let rip with whatever offensive humor he wants.

What he can't do is charge folks a massive fee to make an appearance, and then offend the audience.

He's not a victim of "woke lefties", he is a creature of capitalism whose bosses rein him in to maximize profits.

He can be as edgy and offensive as he wants, but he would not make nearly as much money doing so. It would be like Bob Hope doing explicit sex humor. It would not fly with his audience.

If he thinks folks are more sensitive now than in the past, he should study the career of Lenny Bruce, who was destroyed and imprisoned for being "too edgy" in the 1960s. Or watch old sitcoms, where toilets did not exist, and married couples slept in separate beds.
