    The context is important. Republicans are openly racists, and this is a rally for Donald Trump presidency. This isn’t a badly lit comedy room

      People who attend these events know who will be performing. Kill tony constantly brings black/hispanic comics on his show so Im very confused by what you are trying to say. All republicans are not racist.

        Did you know you can interact with other races while still being racist?

        Do you still believe that racism means that you actively are trying to kill another race?

        He is openly bigoted, it’s not an act. Just watch his show. When he is drunk it all comes out, including his self-hating for being gay

          Its comedy but it sounds like you dont like that type of comedy. No one is being racist to people who willingly went to a show that kill tony would be on. Nothing I can do if it hurts your fragile feelings.

            Comedy isn’t a free pass to be a racist piece of shit.

            For those that didn’t know before that Tony Hinchliffe is a racist Republican, now they know and can choose for themselves what they want to do about that. You can go and suck Tony’s dick.

            Go ahead and paint me as triggered so you feel right lol

            I love comedy that pushes the limits, but you can tell when there is real hate behind it. Racial jokes are some of the best, Shane Gillis does it in a way where you can tell he doesn’t actually hate the target of the joke. Sometimes Tony does too, but then other times you see him essentially venting his anger at a group. Usually the jokes are improvised and horrible and obviously out of hatred. I watch tons of Kill Tony, I can send you examples if you want. Check him on Roast Battles when he shows up wasted and complains that trans people exist all night

        “I am not racist because I have black friends”. This is how you sound.

        The presidential nominee for the GOP is openly racist, sexist and a fascist. By choosing DJT as a nominee, you cannot dissociate the rascim from the party. If you are still a member of the GOP and/or vote for Trump, at best, you enable racism.

        So yeah, going to the GOP rally shitting on Puerto Ricans, you are most definitely racist.
