Facts... ppl are trying to miss that point of the video on purpose it seems

Exactly

No. The video outlined potential sexual assault. Angel explained this in great detail. It helps to listen to women.

@@backtalk9343 Its almost like two things can be true at the same time? What you're talking about is the "premise" of the skit. The punchline is the predatory behaviour.

@@jadowarcadia6227 The punchline should've been put in proper context, another point Angel made. Again, listening to Black women, right? He did not structure this correctly at all.

👏🏽💯

I’m 35 and I understood it completely. I feel like Angel trying hard to not understand… Kevin kept explaining it perfectly but she wasn’t trying to hear it.

I'm younger than you and saw it the same way Angel did

Yes!!! I was so confused on how she kind of missed the point. It’s not supposed to be laugh out loud funny. It’s just relatable

It definitely gives “here mom look at this video/ meme” and she doesn’t get the humor at all

I’m from Arkansas as well and I concur. He’s absolutely accurate.

I went to school in Arkansas and this is accurate

when i seen it, i had a feeling it was gonna get taken the wrong way.

I live in Tennessee. It borders Arkansas. And this is accurate.

@@ljgil850 I didn’t even think it would because it’s so accurate. But I can see why he would take it down after watching this video. He might not be in the space to deal with the backlash.

Most men aren't. But yes, a lot are unfortunately

@@jayc5756 Any is too many. They don't have labels on their foreheads so we have to act like it's all of them.

@@juliet1495 True...but there are a lot of women predators too...that don't mean all are...and I'm not gonna say it like its all women. Its not a sex thing...its a creep thing...like something wrong with their head. IJS

@@jayc5756 No one said it's all men but we have to act that way because our safety is at stake. Safety is more important than feelings, especially with how victims are blamed when something does go wrong.

@@juliet1495 If you look at her statement, she said men...she didn't specify amd say all men or some men...she say men...which implies whether she did it consciously or inconciously...that she may think its a man thing. I was just correcting on that part right there. But other than that, I'm with yall.

I don't know anything about him but my 1st impression of it wasn't good. It looks bad

Agreed. People are dumb and are looking for reasons to be outraged. He's calling out r*pe culture and people are mad

Exactly! I don't normally watch his skits but as a young woman who has been in this setting many times I was like wow this IS weird , and it also gives me the understanding of what they're trying to do when they keep making u take all these shots. And weird to this generation is like a huge insult lol so I think it communicates the message really well . NOBODY wants to be that weirdo at the party and young men are so driven by ego that if they realized they did this before they're now gonna see their own behavior highlighted as weirdo behavior and they're gonna RUN from this behavior in the future .

Agreed. Good for him for even shining a light on the problem with it. He’s a 20 something influencer. He’s going to use words, slang, context, etc that’s relevant to him. To expect him to use PC words that a 50 something would use would lose the context to the message and intended audience, imo.

Angel wanted him to label the video something more straightforward but too many videos get removed for labeling videos that reference SA. She was missing the point in my opinion.

Facts. 💯 and the sad part is the guys who need to understand this the MOST would never watch it if it had a disclaimer beforehand or was labeled otherwise. It needs more context--maybe at the end-- because a lot of people think this is ok or they are just used to it. Girls need to be able to identify this type of situation and how dangerous it is masquerading as a good time with friends. Dudes need to see how predatory they are in this situation because 9 times out of 10 their friends are encouraging this too. Dave Chappelle made a video where a guy is trying to hook up with a girl HE KNOWS will be drunk at a club within a certain amount of time and people thought that was funny and his behavior was applauded.

Angel explained why this needed context. So did Kev. You didn't hear shit they said huh lol. You dgaf about survivors. Yikes

period !

@@backtalk9343 there's people who got what the point of the skit was so did i people are being mad at him for no reason imo

@@backtalk9343 you seem to be projecting. Angel and Kev are not the end all be all. We all have our different perspectives

Yep. I've seen guys act like this, trying to act turnt up to get a female acquaintance drunk.

@@devildham Exactly! The video was very loud & clear.

I think it’s dumb men who saw themselves in him in the skit who helped project that narrative and the reason it got taken down

facts. this is how Druski does his comedy.

These fast 5 years have been hell on peoples creativity… folks make everything so personal and make a mountain out of a mole hill… I’ve been in this setting in college countless times… they know exactly what they doing … he just gave them folks a mirror

I know I have and some of them don't even try to smash they just stand around being extra weird and stirring the pot.

That part Osama!!

I don't know if it's that people wanna be spoon fed but using the word "weirdo" doesn't really describe the character who was being a straight up predator. Weirdo is not the right word and dismisses the seriousness of his actions. I've never equate a weirdo with being a predator. I get what Angel is said.

Ppl just love being outraged if you can't look at that and see he clearly pointing out to men this ain't cool, you just want to be outraged😒🙄

Like they were saying, for a serious subject like this (that often leads to rape) his stance could’ve been more clear. You gotta remember not everyone knows who you are and that’s not their fault. Plus the title was misleading.

@@justabreeze460 exactly 💯 and I see a bunch of people saying they've witnessed this, but nothing about if they've tried to stop it from happening

Yall keep saying how much you have seen this and how you always knew it was predatory but not a word on any actions anyone took to prevent it...I think "phenomenal" is a stretch. The way the video was presented was literally just stating something that happens. That's it. Was there a punchline or was there a moral?

@@sleepbaby17 it's difficult to have a full blown convo when leaving a comment to include everything that needs to be said such as of I've observed it and what I've done but if you down for reading.... Yes. It's been observed by my eyes with a guy I came across. The moment it was observed as creepy...it got shut down by all males around. It's relatable in that I've only seen it once BUT can definitely see this be a thing that occurs. I can't speak to anyone else's experiences but mine.

Exactly 🎯

thats not a comedian's job..its noble..but thats not fair to the comedian. unless he is saying he is being an advocate/activist in every skit he makes, then thats an unfair standard to place

@@ljgil850 it's his job to write a well-written sketch.

@@mweeming "well written" is subjective.. just like comedy itself.. dark humor is a gift and curse.. some people will laugh at inappropriate things/people.. some will be immediately offended. Life

Facts. And it’s wild that none of them will speak up and say “I don’t hang with/I check niggas that act like this” because they’re too worried about how other men will portray them instead of worrying about women being comfortable around them.

But he didn’t do a good job. The execution could have been better. There are code words you can use instead of “rape” etc. His intention is fine but the execution was not clear. In a culture where this topic isn’t taken seriously, it’s important to be extremely clear, seeing as people like to play stupid when a rape or sexual assault that starts like the video actually happens. Hope this helps.

!!!! So much fake outrage and its like some of yall haven't even been on the receiving end of this you're just hypervigilant to keep it PC.

Well said...the more people are speaking up and against rape culture, the more people get upset because they're being exposed.

That's what I saying. They know dang well what the message was. That's why he titled it "weirdo"

Yeah she said her little “sorry” after and I was like “NAH SIS TAHT’S TRUTH”

I agree, I don't know this guy at ALL, but I think even a little blurb saying "we as men have to do better, or let's all keep tabs on people so we all go home safely" or something would have been perfect.

More importantly, women need to peep the characteristics of these type of men. I don't even associate with weirdos like these to even say hey don't act like that. FOH! F Them. IJS

@@DivaAP08 This is not typical man behavior though ma. This is Creep behavior. Cmon now

@@jayc5756 definitely didn't say that it was typical men behavior and I definitely put "we" in my statement as well.... Soooooooooo

Exactly! Like people are questioning what Druskis stance on this is when it’s literally clear as day! I mean he called them weirdos for one, which some people are debating his stance from the use of that word but in what world do you live in where ‘weirdo’ has a positive connotation???

It wasn't a mistake for him, this is how he makes money, he protects the bag first.

True

@@winterfinn21 Exactly. Idk. People just trying to find an excuse to be mad and criticize. SMH!

Ma'am I am so sorry that happened to you. I am glad you are stronger now to talk about it. May the nightmare lessen as time goes on. Be blessed.

I'm sorry to read that hopefully you are doing good💯

Thank you 🙏🏾❤️

He didn’t make any mistakes We need to stop giving the idiots a voice. Druski did NOTHING wrong.

@@stopcommentingshit exactly, absolutely NOTHING!

@@stopcommentingshit It’s not giving a voice to the idiots…he launched this on large platform where millions of people who are not his fans or stans will see this and wonder if he is making light of a situation. Although he uses the word “weirdo”, one can interpret it as if he is tiptoeing around the matter as opposed to unequivocally stating that 1. This behavior is wrong (which calling the character a “weirdo” implies that, however culturally the word has different connotations. Since I’m in LA I know it’s an insult. Older people or people in cultures that are not familiar with it being as bad of an insult that it is, may not understand.) 2. Men to hold other men accountable who do this (there was no other character in the skit that checked or questioned his behavior) 3. That predator may not be some stranger in the shadows, it may be your “homeboy” Do I think what he did was terrible? Absolutely not, but yes a text PSA along the lines of “1 out of 6 women will be a victim a SA or attempted SA in her lifetime. Often times the weirdo/perpetrator is someone she knows. We must continue to protect women. We must continue to recognize and call out predatory behavior” would have been nice(of course using SA to prevent the censoring). As Kev said, the more sensitive a subject matter you address, the more clear you product has to be.

None of her points made sense in the context of the topic at hand …. what he did in the video is just a real life scenario that has actually happened .. she’s hung up on the intent of the video and the intent is clear without explanation…

SAME cause if you’re stating there’s an apparent lack of comedic elements or build up then one could ASSUME you saw the seriousness in the message being portrayed.. yes we should call a thing a thing but for the specific audience he has it was framed in a way for people to see that this isn’t acceptable behavior

This is literally a lot of womens story of sexual assault so I’m glad he showed it… I have been that girl

The video doesn't even tell dudes not to be like that tho..

@@sammiesmith3454 it's implied. and even if it wasn't, the people who know right from wrong clown them in the comments, and then the men being mocked get offended, AS THEY DID. this happens to be a scenario that's a little less cut and dry but in most of his videos it's clear that they're satire because the behavior is almost unanimously perceived as ridiculous. apparently niggas don't know how ridiculous it is to act like this, but that doesn't mean he should've done more than he usually does to explain it...

In layman’s terms they worried bout the wrong shit lol

Precisely

Facts!

Yeh he literally called them weirdos

@@koryverde "wierdos" doesn’t mean creeps and predators to everyone. For some people it just means a little strange

Weirdo… regardless of your region or age group, is never a positive attribute.

Exactly I didn't really get what his stance was. It wasn't well written. I don't know who he is.

Thank you sis, I KNOW these people

@@jessicapatrickjessicataylo5285 exactly! And to the untrained eye you don't think much of it

I love self check out lanes. I want to be in and out.

Great comment! A lot of young guys may not read articles and think pieces about this subject matter or even watch videos about it. The fact that it was 'one of them' calling them out was more powerful than any conversation you could try to have with someone. I don't wanna be dramatic, but I think he was brave to do this skit knowing his target audience is mostly young men.

It's also not a one off skit for him.. he often does the "where my hug at" guy and other just random socially awkward but predatory characters. I also think thats why he used the word "weirdos"

Super great point. We have all seen this or been in this or these people at some point.

Like the The "where my hug at" guy.

I agree!!

People are whining over a minor thing the point of the video was clear but people want you to spell everything out now.

I also think it's gear towards a younger high school and college demographic.. I've been in those settings with those "weirdos" who are essentially very socially acknowledge and being predatory under the guise of faciliting the fun.. some of them don't even intend to act just be stirring the pot... I definitely think people are putting extra sauce on it giving it an ending that didn't actually occur.

@@lulubird8636 exactly. You nailed the main point: it's for a younger audience. "Weirdo" connects much stronger than "predator". Not every piece of content is for every demographic.

It’s funny that some places are so intellectually inferior you can expect to get hit for saying something I noticed it’s only bullies and cowards that live like that they keep that shii away from the rest of us

Yeah, I recently heard that it's meant to mean much worst in LA.

@@stopcommentingshit Never said it was okay. I am only acknowledging various connotations for the same word. You mentioned intellect however anyone who has any knowledge about words and definitions would know that words hold various denotations and various connotations. I spoke to this because Angel seemed so locked in on her understanding and interpretation of the word weirdo so I provided another meaning. The Los Angeles Population is huge to determine the level of intellect of a group based on something so minuscule is ridiculous.

I have the Abuelita hot chocolate in my cabinet but I got at Save-a-lot.

True

Same. I don't think I've ever had a cart, maybe a handheld basket when I go in. That way I spend less and keep it moving.

That is not realistic, dudes see this type of guy and say nothing all the time! And turning the clip into a rape culture PSA would have never gotten seen. People would just pass it or it would have been taken down.

@@saashamoniquew1 so if the point wasn’t to highlight this as a problem then why post it? To be funny? That’s exactly why he deleted it because his intention wasn’t clear.

It wasn't clear at all and the fact that people see this happening and DON'T say anything shouldn't be an "unrealistic standard," it shouldn't be called out and shut down

@@sleepbaby17 exactly!

He stated his stance tho, they're weirdos. You may not get it but some know exactly what he meant

I disagree, I think the point got across, just for some reason people want him to treat it like a PBS special. There was enough context to determine what he was saying. The deep thought and dialogue around it seems forced.

@@nmw654 that fact that the point got across to you and not to others is exactly the problem. When something is clear there’s no room to debate what he meant. There shouldn’t be room for interpretation on topics like rape.

@@nonyab916 exactly, I've been sexually assaulted & I didn't know what the heck this guy was trying to do. I was waiting for someone to say, nah man this ain't it or for girl to get up & leave. Maybe it makes sense if you know of his skits & him. Otherwise that wasn't it.

@@nonyab916 the point got across many many people, the backlash was only caused by the few ignorant/sensitive people that took it out of context

I'm so sorry

REAL SHIT

That’s real. That used to be my breakfast at my Granny’s house

i love dark humor. unfortunately, the more mainstream you get, the less it will work for you..well unless u get chapelle status..

Yes suh! #LowcountryGirl

I just didn't understand what was being missed...like ....head scratch.

Yeah I kinda wanted her to shut up too....she carried it way too long.

@@CT-hz6mz I tend to want her to shut up 75% of the time

@@ChloeBaileysRightBootyCheek Nooo lol that's a lot 🙈

Angle definitely talking in circles … she started out by saying it lacked seriousness to the overall message BUT turned right around and said she didn’t find it funny or find any comedic elements that lead to a “punchline”
