Rob Schneider, a comedian, informed Tucker Carlson during a recent interview that his conservative political views have resulted in him being blacklisted from late night television and Canada.
“You were punished by the Canadians for telling naughty jokes,” Carlson said during their recent interview.
Carlson was alluding to Schneider’s abrupt termination of his performance at a charity event in Canada in June due to his offensive remarks regarding vaccines and his gender identity.
“They really went after me and it hurt not at all,” Schneider said.
“I’m glad I did it and I’ll do it again if you let me back in the country!” he continued.
“Which I’m assuming they won’t?” Carlson said in response.
“I will not be allowed back into the country — for ‘hate speech,’ for jokes!” Schneider remarked
“And you’re not allowed on late night TV either?” Carlson asked.
“I don’t get invited,” Schneider stated.
Schneider said that the joke that elicited the backlash is one in which he pretends to be a father, encouraging his son to feign to identify as female in order to participate in and subsequently dominate athletics.
The former Saturday Night Live cast member refused to apologize for the humor and maintained that the audience was chuckling.
“Much of late night TV is political indoctrination with comedic imposition. It no longer resembles comedy as much as cheering on the rhetoric and attacking a particular one half of the country,” Schneider concluded.
