    My son is autistic, and his first joke was "why did the cat cross the road?" "I forget the punchline." It totally fit the pattern - he asks a question, you don't know the answer, he tells you, you laugh either genuinely or awkwardly - so even though the first time he said it spontaneously, he went with it.

    Back in the winter of 2012 I was campaigning for my right to marry in Baltimore, Maryland during the primary because my humanity was on the public ballot. A man at an early voting pole was slacking off in his work for an education campaign and I told him to stand up and not slouch on a bench behind me. He then threatened to rape me straight in very very graphic language and nobody said anything to him. I had to change places with my team member. We were surrounded by people at this early voting location. This happens every single time some bigot targets me when they notice that I am a butch lesbian. Hannah's story is one that I identify with in a waterfall of tears.

    "I've built a career out of self-deprecating humor and I don't want to do that anymore." That statement changed my whole viewpoint of how so many people I know do the same thing, including myself. Hannah gave me the opportunity to look at my own methods of putting myself down in the name of getting a laugh. It was a wake up call that I am grateful for every day. THANK YOU, Hannah.

No one seems to notice when people punch down (and a comic like Gervais not only survives but thrives in his nastiness) but the moment they punch up, people like you come out of the crevices and get a bit shouty about manners.

    Gadsby is brilliant. Watching her show Nanette Is cathartic. I can so relate to her and I am an American, straight woman who grew up with a total double standard for men/boys and women/girls. I grew up having my face slammed into a wall by my alcoholic father. Hannah Gadsby had the guts to speak her truth, our truth, the truth. Millions of people relate to her. Her shows are revelations of truth, courage, vulnerability and strength. I hope every college art history professor listens to her insights and she becomes required viewing.

    Lovely to see. This is a form of art. This is instruction for the audience, we are not all alike, those who are different have feelings too, all of us need to be heard. Commenters here who think HG is not funny enough, probably have no problem with male comedians who disparage women in their comedy routine, without regard to how it makes women feel. Would say to Hannah herself, be liberated. Release the past with your presentation and likeability and wit. That was then, this is now. Take the love your audience shows you. Stuff some in your pocket. The age of intolerance is coming to an end. It might not seem like it, but it’s always darkest before the dawn. Intolerance is coming to an end.

If you’ve ever watched someone go from typically passive to more assertive, they go through an aggressive stage. She also accurately assesses her abilities in many people’s minds… it’s obviously hard for you to hear someone not feigning humbleness as neurotypicals so often demand of others.

Prior to deciding to do this, she’d been known as a comedian and had won numerous awards on the comedy festival circuit where the performances are for an hour and involve long-form storytelling. No doubt a good portion of the audience who rated her negatively were American, particularly American men. You can’t, well you can, label everything you don’t like as PC culture. Some of us actually understood what she was doing and why and actually enjoyed it. Perhaps the critics have a clear understanding of when someone is breaking the rules and actually appreciate rule breaking and audiences less so. You can know what you like and prefer that but that doesn’t mean that others are engaging in PC culture. Because you don’t understand someone else’s reality doesn’t make it less valid.

    If people like her get angry at Comedians like Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr and others like that for making jokes about Rape, Transgenders, Women Equality, Gay Rights etc. Then why would you have a Netflix Special talking about the same thing and call it a Comedy? That doesn't make any sense, and is unbelievably hypocritical. If anything, this should bother them even more. When I hear Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr talk about that stuff, it's always a hypothetical situation and the person in their joke doesn't actually exist. It's always them doing a type of character. But this lady is telling us things that actually happened to her. How is it okay if she talks about this, and not okay if Chappelle, Burr or any other Comedian talks about it? And why would she call this a Comedy if people like her get mad at Comedians who are talking about the same thing?
