“The paradox of wokeism is that, in its quest for inclusivity, it often becomes exclusionary, shutting down conversations deemed uncomfortable or offensive. This narrowing of acceptable discourse harms the essence of free speech, as it places arbitrary boundaries on what can be said or joked about. Comedy, in particular, serves as a barometer for societal norms and challenges our preconceptions. Suppressing comedic expression not only hampers artistic freedom but also stifles the very laughter that can bridge divides and foster understanding.”

“И передо мной, естественно, как перед всяким “изгнанником” (по Ахматовой) вставал выбор меж двумя ценностями — родина иль свобода? Не задумываясь, я взял свободу, ибо родина без свободы уж не родина, а свобода без родины, хоть и очень тяжела, может быть, даже страшна, но все-таки — моя свобода.. Так что “надменные строки” Ахматовой о каком-то “изгнаннике” меня всегда необыкновенно отталкивали.”
