giving cancel culture a huge heckle offstage. “Most of the people on social media with these [negative] opinions aren’t even real people …They’re trying to strip us of the very thing that makes our country special: the freedom of speech.”Recently, Marlon used comedy to address the senseless violence and brawl at an Alabama dock which caught the nation’s attention.

It’s something he spoke in detail about on this week’s episode – along with negative reaction to his own commentary on the incident.“I think social media messed up socializing and we’ve got to get back to laughing and finding reasons to laugh and stop being so damn sensitive,” he said. “All we’re doing is filling our airwaves, feeling out our kids with fear and hate – there’s no laughter and love.

The only thing that’s going to bring us together is humor.” Marlon is even worried about the direction free speech is moving toward in America.

He said it’s time to take it back – here and now.“Sooner or later, they’re going to take away the First Amendment. We’re all going to have to think alike,” Marlon said. “People are going to get canceled. ‘You can’t think like this.’ What kind of society do we live in? … It’s OK to laugh at things.
