Muslim Jokes not welcome on tv
Posted by Orange Blossom Special on Wed Mar 25 09:31:18 2026 It seems like a bad business decision, because the material is endless. 0000 Comedian Mark Normand says he made a streaming giant squirm. The comedian recounted Monday a call that he had with a streaming service about two weeks prior, in which the company pressed him on a joke about Muslims in his special. Normand says he agreed to take the joke off social media — but only if the company agreed that Muslims were a “dangerous people.” The clip is dubbed over so that the audio says “Hulu,” but Normand visibly mouths “Netflix” in the podcast clip. Normand has not publicly announced he’s working with Hulu on a comedy special. His new comedy special, “None Too Pleased,” was released March 17 on Netflix. “They come back in a week, they go, ‘We gotta do a conference call … They go, ‘Yeah, we got some bad news there. We reviewed the special again. We’d like to take out the Muslim joke.'” Normand asked them why. “And they go, ‘Well, last time a comic did a Muslim joke we got bomb threats, we got death threats, they said they were gonna kill us, ruin the whole studio, blow the place up to smithereens, so we’d like to not use the Muslim joke.” “And I go, ‘Well I like the joke, it kills, it’s a hot joke … So I was like, I gotta fight for the joke here, folks.'” Normand says the company agreed to keep the joke in the special itself, but wanted it removed from social media. “And I was like, ‘Okay, okay, I don’t love it but okay, I will take it off on one condition … I go, I want you to admit, on this call, that they’re a dangerous people,” Normand said, referring to Muslims. “And they were like, ‘What, no, what are you, crazy?'” “And I’m like, ‘You gotta admit it or I’m keeping it, or I’m posting it,” said Normand, adding that he was “half joking.” “And they go, ‘Well, we’re not gonna do that,’ and I go, ‘Why not?’ And they go, ‘Well that’s offensive.” “And I go, ‘That’s what the call is. You’re calling about this and I just need you to say it out loud’ … But it’s kind of a microcosm of the whole thing. You can say, ‘Hey, I love this group,’ but then you don’t live near them. You know, we’re all talk, we’re all signaling, we’re all virtuous, but you don’t actually act that way. And I think this is a perfect example of that. ‘Hey, we’re scared. Hey, we don’t want to get Hebdo’d. Hey, we’re nervous.’ Okay, well why are you nervous?” Normand’s point is clear and correct. “The Book Of Mormon” was a smash hit. There is no “Book of Islam,” in part because Broadway types aren’t keen on making fun of Muslims, and in part (I suspect) because no one is keen on getting murdered. ===== I mentioned this on here some time ago, and i think it was a1m who never understood the comparison when I wanted to see a new play called book of islam. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/comedian-gives-streaming-giant-ultimatum-over-muslim-joke-says-company-caved/ar-AA1Zk0cY?ocid=msedgntp&pc=W099&cvid=69c3dd3f83e84b73ac265af3a00ac248&ei=15

You can't question the religion. You can't mock the religion. You must accept the religion as the one and only truth. Or you get arrested or killed. It's a sick and bizarre thing. All of our lives we had debates about religion. But not for Islam. Even spider-pig famously avoided criticizing them for years and years and he brings up religion often enough over those same years. Sick stuff.

He lost family in the concentration camps.

Proving that Jews control hollywood. Democrats and progressives would never allow a show like this to be on the air.
