Cancel culture does take away the lessons we need in order to learn how to intend a better future. Barry Humphries, as far as public performances go, was ahead of his time in presenting comedy that was instructive in highlighting how oppressive those in power, on whatever level, could be toward those more vulnerable. It could just be on the level of a boss to an employee or an employee to a more vulnerable co worker. He gave a taste to everyone on all levels, of how tprivilege can be used to cause abuse and suffering. What follows in time, is normal people, as in this audience groaning and enjoying cringe laughing at his example of portraying what is now considered base behaviour. When Barry Humpries first started out with his characters he copped a lot of flack along the lines of " Nothing wrong with our behaviour, it's normal leave us alone." orelse " There is some bad behaviour like this in existence in some parts but don't show us up by pointing it out.".......and not just in Australia but the wider world also. Now look how far the world has moved forward in considering everyone's equal rights to freely realise their potential and contribute their talents and skills. Still a long way to go though. Still a lot more to do in remembering past champions for their good contributions, but also a need for reading the footnotes that need to be added about their detrimental mistakes as well, for making sure we don't repeat those into the future. I love Barry Humphrie's character of Sandy Stone that gentlemanly, wise old shining light of wisdom and wonder why, though I have regularly searched in the past, I cannot find a scrap of him on you tube. I would appreciate somebody pointing to where I might find Sandy if they know of a site.

Well cobbers I beg to agree and disagree in a way, this is smart satire, and he's clearly taking the mickey out of a certain red-faced alcoholic type that existed in our times as we know. A certain kind of bloviated lecherous chauvinist type that was incredibly racist and colonialist and all the rest, and in 1981 we all knew what that was, and that it was funny because it was bloody gross. Hilarious send-up that would totally play today, if Australia had any decent entertainment industry left! (That's the real problem if you ask me, remember Hey Dad and Acropolis Now!?
