Aw man do I have to be mad at bill burr and that Saudi crew for performing in the USA too? Cognitive dissonance hurts mah head.

You don’t have to do anything. I already chose to stop supporting anyone who participates in events sponsored by Trump or the Trump administration. This is consistant with dropping folks who worked the Saudi government backed festival.

Ah yes, America started doing the same thing as Saudi Arabia only when Trump was involved. Nothing was ever as evil before that. Also America definitely didn’t play a part in Saudi Arabia becoming as powerful as they are. God bless America and aramco.

And god smite bill burr and the comedians for daring to turn a blind eye to another governments bad deeds. That’s only allowed for performing for and within the USA. AMEN!

Performing in Gillette Stadium is definitely not equivalent at all.

Cognitive dissonance still making my head sore for some reason.
