I mean, she blew up after the Steve-O "Why wasn't it you?" joke, not the boring fat jokes.

I mean…Schumer did write Trainwreck herself, haha.
The fact that all the best Iron Fist stories hinge on the specific dynamics of his relationship with Luke and Misty, though, absolutely do.
I do feel like she's really declined since her first couple of specials. The whole "Voice of a Generation" shit that got dumped on her because of Inside Amy Schumer has been constraining her stand-up.
Yeah, "Relatively tolerant" for the 80s registers as "pretty homophobic" now…and that's what he was trying to push the edge on.
That's an insanely willful misinterpretation of her objection to being labeled plus-sized, though.
I mean…her entire point was that since she isn't plus-sized (because, you know, she's clearly not), it's unfair and creates an unhealthy standard for Glamour to point to her as an example of an attractive plus-sized woman.

Or he just has no real beliefs, and decided that "there is no good and evil, there is only power and those too weak to seek it."
I forgive him for going to LS.
My favorite was the AVC article about how Spencer shouldn't have told a story about the American Dream having been poisoned into something ugly and nativist rather than hopeful and welcoming, because the people up top weren't paying attention to the ones suffering in the shadows, because it makes them feel…
…the new Hydra that EvilCap serves is much more of an analog for nativism than Nazism.
The Red Skull distorted reality to destroy America from within, by subverting the ultimate representative of the American Dream into someone who succumbs to fear of the other and nationalism.
