WATCH: Samantha Bee Tears Into #MeToo Backlash. Her Monologue Is Comedy Cancer And Moral Rot.
Samantha Bee
On Wednesday  TBS’ Samantha Bee — a woman enmeshed in a running gun battle for least funny human being with Comedy Central’s Trevor Noah — unleashed her latest screed of humorless outrage  this time with regard to the backlash against the #MeToo movement brought about by Babe.net’s idiotic report alleging sexual abuse against comedian Aziz Ansari.
 Bee  stated:
 She  then played clips of Tucker Carlson  Condoleezza Rice  and Liam Neeson  among others  questioning whether #MeToo has gone too far.  She  continued:
This is imbecilic. Let’s say I constructed a list  called “S***y Human Beings.” On that list were three people: Hitler  Charles Manson  and  Samantha Bee . Now  I think  Samantha Bee  seems like a rather s****y human being  but I’m obviously not saying that  she ’s a mass murderer. But  she  might be miffed to be placed in that company. The #MeToo movement has set no limits on what ought to be a career-ending or career-affecting offense. That’s not the fault of men. And it’s not even the fault of most women who find the #MeToo movement inspirational. It’s the fault of people like  Samantha Bee  who make excuses for conflation  then suggest that no conflation has taken place.
Then  Bee  moved onto ripping into Aziz Ansari:
Banfield was  of course  correct. And Bee  who works in a business where she literally plays clips of people and then mocks them in the most painful possible fashion doesn’t have a lot of ground to stand on in knocking Banfield. But  Bee  continued nonetheless:
Fact check: False.  Bee  could leave.  She  could tell  her  producers to stop playing the clip at any time.  Her  audience seems to have already left  judging by the applause.
First off   Bee  seems not to know what the word "prehensile" means. Second   Samantha Bee  did not build “the world we now enjoy.”  She  was born in 1969.  She  graduated from the University of Ottawa  joined The Daily Show in 2003 as a correspondent  and stayed there for 12 years.  She  launched  her  own show on TBS in April 2015  and titled it after graphic nudity.  She ’s not Susan B. Anthony  Rosa Parks  or even Ellen DeGeneres.  She ’s not pathbreaking.  She ’s doing a crappy comedy show beloved by the critics for its outright lack of humor  and  she ’s drawing flies:  she  pulled just over a million viewers in the Nielsens the night of this monologue  falling behind FX’s broadcast of The Martian and House Hunters International on HGTV.
But  Bee  didn’t stop there.  She  explained that the feminist standard for sex is “whatever women find enjoyable ” without any reference to what they tell their supposedly-mind-reading partners:
