I know who you're talking about, and I'm fairly convinced, but I haven't found any concrete evidence that it's you-know-who. Although that was the case for their Chicago account, and we figured out their identity soon enough.

Yes. Not sure why he didn't go back to his old account, but it's his choice I suppose.

Honey, if you seriously think a couple random articles about some random tweets are the worst things that has happened to this world lately, and represent everything wrong with society, I sincerely envy your naïve perspective and I suggest you pick up a newspaper.
-
Then ignore them. I'm not sure why you are so bothered by them. You claim that they don't matter and are so detached with reality, yet at the same time whine about how terrible they are. If you don't care about them, why are you so hyperfixated on them? Why do you care about what they do so much? You seem more offended by them then whatever it is they are offended about.
-
You. Your subjective opinion. This may surprise you, but I am well aware that not everybody thinks exactly the same and that nuance exists. Even the people on Twitter who you love to complain as out of touch buffoons who want to "cancel" everybody (and honestly, folks like you care way more about Twitter than the people who actually use it) are not this monolithic group who all believe the same stuff. Sure, a good chunk of people may agree something is too offensive and hurtful, but a good chunk of people agree on certain things all the time. And they have the right to call out comedians, who do hold a position of power, for what they feel is punching down just as much as you have in the opposite scenario. Regardless, comedians are in no way an endangered species nor threatened like you've made it out to be in your recent posts. Chris Rock's instance is 100% certain to be a rarity (no, people won't slap comedians in the face like you're fearing the evil Twitter users will do), Amy Schumer will still get TV and stand-up gigs, and people holding funnymen more accountable for what they say might cause some jokes to fall aside, but if a few tasteless gags that 9 times out of 9 aren't even funny are no longer used...yeah, I fail to see how that's such a horrible thing to fret about.
-
Well in those scenarios, like it is with every joke, it depends on the context. It depends on what is actually being said. If the humor of a minority comedian is tackling a gay white man's position of privilege, then that's punching up. If it it is gags about his preference towards men, that's punching down. If a Muslim comedian is making jokes about his own people...well, that's a bit more nuanced, but if he's tackling certain stereotypes and mocking them for how ridiculous they are, then I would argue that is also punching up.

There are several movies in development in various forms. Whether or not they will come out is up in the air of course, but you seem to be acting like Star Wars movies are dead forever, when Lucasfilm and Disney clearly want to continue it and I'm sure we will get something in the next few years And really, if we think about this logistically, why would Warner give up on a major cash cow due to a bad movie? The fanbase is still active. The rides at Universal still get gigantic lines. The HBO Max reunion special was a sensation on social media. The books and movies still sell like hotcakes. They'll regroup, put out something new Potter-related, probably with the old cast returning, and still get solid profits. I get you're upset about all this, but try and take a moment and think about the situation.
