Seth Rogen tells comedians to stop griping over cancel culture

HuffPost

Rogen said on Good Morning Britain on Tuesday and that he doesn’t understand why fellow comedians like Donald Glover, Chris Rock and Billy Crystal are making such a big deal about cancel culture. Rogen admitted there are jokes in his past movies that wouldn’t pass muster today, and that’s fine with him. “I think there are certain jokes that for sure have not aged well,” he said. “But I think that’s the nature of comedy. I think conceptually those movies are sound and I think there’s a reason they’ve lasted. Jokes are not things that necessarily are built to last.” Rogen that there's nothing wrong with accountability when jokes cross the line. “If you’ve made a joke that’s aged terribly, accept it. And if you don’t think it’s aged terribly, then say that,” he said.
