Do you think amy schumer stole those jokes, or do you think it's just a rumour being spread around by misogynists who don't like a prominent feminist in the media, like with that rape accusation?

[philstar22]

I don't think it really matters either way. I'm pretty sure jokes get stolen all the time.

[(Anonymous)]

DA but I do think stealing other people's creative content matters. It's like plagiaring a book or tracing over someone else's photo. It's wrong and since it rarely carries legal consequences, it should at least have some form of social backlash.

[philstar22]

Generally I do think so. But I don't think jokes are the same. There are often people who come up with the same joke or are inspired by someone else's joke but make something that is their own. I think it is too murky to be able to say that jokes are owned by individual comedians.

[(Anonymous)]

Carlos Mencia level of stolen is different though. Not sure about Amy, but he's basically disappeared since that incident.

[(Anonymous)]

She probably stole the jokes because people steal jokes all the time.

[(Anonymous)]

MTE, but apparently when a woman does it, suddenly it's a super fucking big deal.

[(Anonymous)]

It made the news because Schumer is well known, but comedy has other well known joke thieves who are male:

Robin Williams
Denis Leary
Carlos Mencia
Dane Cook

Just to name a few.

[(Anonymous)]

Have you never heard of Dane Cook or Carlos Mencia? They have been accused a fuck ton of stealing jokes and it is a big fucking deal.

Just because you only heard about her because your victim complex made you go "THEY ARE PICKING ON A WOMAN" doesn't mean it isn't a big deal.

[(Anonymous)]

Google Dane Cook, Carlos Mencia, Bill Hicks (who afaik never stole a joke but did accuse people of theft of same), Dennis Leary (the one Bill Hicks accused), Patton Oswalt.

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, the woman who made the accusation has dialed it back and apologized.

So many people have such a hate-on for her that I have a really, really hard time believing it's not the same old song and dance that gets pulled out any time someone dislikes a successful comedian.

I can barely even name a super successful comedian that hasn't been accused of joke stealing at some point in their careers.
