Marc Maron Calls Out Comedians Who ‘Joke Around’ With ‘White Supremacists and Fascists’ on Their Podcasts: ‘All It Does Is Normalize Fascism’


Marc Maron has called out 'comedians with podcasts' who 'joke around' with 'shameless, self-proclaimed white supremacists and fascists on their show.'

Marc Maron has called out “comedians with podcasts” who “joke around” with “shameless, self-proclaimed white supremacists and fascists on their show,” saying, “all it does is humanize and normalize fascism.” “When someone uses their platform for that reason they are facilitating anti-American sentiment and promoting violent autocracy,” he wrote in a blog post shared to social media. Hinchcliffe drew backlash after referring to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.” The Trump campaign has since distanced itself from the joke.
