Hey #RickyGervais and #davechappelle :
Neither of you is the pope of #comedy so get off your fake high horse.
And both of you are lazy, outdated assholes who just can't be bothered to adjust your act with the times, and don't want anything to come between you and your money. Bullies like you are only there to give material to evil people to articulate their cruelty and you both give comedy a stinking bad name.

It's been several months since I cancelled #Netflix once #SAGAFTRA went on #strike, joining the #WGA.

I'd been a Netflix subscriber since they were only a #DVD delivery service back in the late 90's, and was considering resubscribing, at least for a month or two.

I read the other day that not only are they running a #RickyGervais "special", but yet another #DaveChappelle "special", at least their third in as many years, it seems.

Their corporate (and personal) position is clear.

Fuck them.
