#Xi #A4revolution

I just got two very different reviews for my special from my fellow countrymen, and they instilled in me a “sweet and sour” feeling. Any other comedians from a political polarized country feel the same way? Is there a country that’s not political polarized? #edfringe23 #edfringe

#edfringe I wrote this piece during Xi's re-election and the “White Paper movement”, the biggest protest in #China since June 4th, 1989. I promise it’s smart humor with a lot of heart. Come and support my opening night tonight. just show up! It’s PWYW!

So my #edfringe show is about democracy and I’ve been handing out flyers by saying “democracy” and most people said “no thanks” which has been so funny to me.

Opening Act for Olivia Xing’s PARTY SCHOOL 🥳🏫 It’s a privilege to watch your sharp witted political satire on both China & USA. I am schooled 🇨🇳🇺🇸 To the #EdFringe audience out there, if you want to watch a female-led political satire, check out Olivia Xing’s PARTY SCHOOL

Politics around the world is fucked so let's hope that Olivia Xing successfully turns her brilliant hour of stand up into a run into office. Bitingly funny at government here, USA and China.

Now for a couple of different endorsements. I know we're having debates over cancel culture, but that's nothing compared to some artists of other nationalities, who can be imprisoned back home for what's said in Edinburgh. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2023/07/31/edi…

And for that reason, I encourage people to see Olivia Xing Olivia Xing's Party School. Officially stand-up comedy, but more valuable as a frank if bleak look at the rise of authorianism in both China and the USA. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2023/07/31/edi…

Been doing this shadowy work for the Edinburgh Edinburgh Comedy Awards since 2016, so maybe about time I detailed exactly how it works comedy.co.uk/fringe/2023/fe…

JD Vance said the Fed should track women traveling for abortions. Hopefully, they don't have to travel as far as Vance did to go from Trump critic to asskisser.

Jennifer Aniston called out JD Vance for criticizing women without children. Yea, seriously JD, could you BE more out of touch?

So Alec Baldwin is turning his 'Rust' manslaughter trial into a reality TV show, but don’t worry, no people were hurt in the making of the film.”

Matthew McConaughey floated the idea of running for political office, and his campaign slogan is “make America alright alright alright.”

Barack and Michelle Obama just endorsed Kamala Harris for president. They must be thrilled—first their VP became president, and now the VP of their VP is running. Next, maybe we'll have the VP of their VP's VP running: It's like the political Russian nesting doll.

Rep. Tim Burchett from Tiananese called Kamala Harris a “diversity” candidate. To be honest, Trump is the true diversity hire, as the first orange president.
