People on social media are angry about Bobby Lee’s words, and many are calling for him to be fired. The incident has brought up the topic of comedy with bad ideas and the need for responsibility again.

But Ethan Klein of the H3 show has defended Bobby Lee by saying that the story was meant to be a “joke” and “dark” comedy. Klein said that Lee told him that the event didn’t happen, and that Klein believes the comic.

It’s important to know that the clip talks about rape and sexual abuse, so readers should be careful what they read. This shows how powerful social media can be when it comes to holding public people accountable for what they do.

It also shows how important it is to promote a culture of respect and sensitivity towards sensitive issues, especially in the world of comedy, where offensive and troubling material has been accepted for a long time.

Bobby Lee hasn’t said anything about it yet, but the reaction on social media keeps getting worse. We don’t yet know how the comedian will react or if he will own up to what he said.
