Louis CK is being given "the treatment" once again for making some jokes which offended the Twitterati.

"Louis CK" was the top "trending" topic late Sunday night/early Monday on Twitter.

Louis CK is being accused of "punching down" after footage leaked of him telling jokes about non-binary people and school shooting survivors. https://t.co/1fL3szOUqG

The responses were what you'd expect:

As a reminder, I wrote back in August that Louis CK's only conceivable "comeback" was to become the kind of hacky, shitty, "what is UP with GENDER PRONOUNS" comic that rapists can see as "their voice" and that his previous career was built on subverting. Here he is. https://t.co/a1ag85YTyf

Like, imagine getting publicly shamed like Louis CK did and then coming out the other end a worse person instead of trying to be a better one because you know the core audience that will be receptive to your comeback is comprised of terrible people.

I listened to the Louis ck clip and im proud of being part of a generation that pisses off old white dudes and tries to make difference.

We’ll do Jell-O shots when this old minded wack ass system is dismantled.

Here's the bit everyone is whining about:

The crowd certainly seemed to enjoy it. The first part reminded me of this cringe tweet from Christina Hoff Sommers earlier this year:

Dear kids: I’m a Baby Boomer. We are getting old. But at least we had sex, drugs and rock & roll. Seems like millennials have moral panics, workshops, and grievance circles. Time to rebel! xxMom

"Sex, drugs and rock & roll" were all pushed on boomers from the top down. "Rebelling" at the time was living an honest life and fighting against the communist subversives overthrowing our society.

Regardless, CK said during his routine his career is already over so he doesn't give a damn how people respond:

telling moment in the bootleg Louis CK set is when, after a particularly crude bit, he jokingly tells the crowd, "What are you - going to take away my birthday? My life is over. I don't give a shit." audience laughs.

This all comes on the heels of another older tape surfacing of him using the n-word in some jokes:

Why did it take @JerrySeinfeld to tell Louis Ck and @rickygervais that it wasn’t cool for two white dudes to toss around the word ‘n*gger?’

Why the hell was @chrisrock shucking, jiving & laughing with them.

Right Jerry, I don’t find the %#%* humor.pic.twitter.com/bxY36ECGnx

Note how proud Ricky Gervais was of the fact he used the n-word. And Louis CK basically said he’s one because black folks ain’t shit. Chris Rock is getting crucified, but those other two deserve massive smoke.

As a reminder, Louis CK endorsed Hillary Clinton for president in 2016 because he said we need a "mom" who will "feed" us, "teach" us, and "protect" us.

He also wrote a letter in 2016 saying Trump "is Hitler."

A few years ago he also said, without much controvery and no damage done to his career, that mother-of-five Sarah Palin was a "f**king retard making c*nt."

His career was crushed earlier this year after it came out he masturbated in front of several women after asking for their explicit permission to do so, which was said to be exploiting "power dynamics."

What's really hilarious is how CK, who libs said just a year or so ago was literally the funniest comedian of all time and a truth-telling sage, is now in their eyes the personification of evil and to be universally scorned.

It's funny how that works.
