CALL FOR ACTION at the bottom of this post
I'm just translating a bit there in the headline. Watch the disgusting video below (before SNL wisely deletes it) and then tell me that I'm wrong. Watch the whole thing.
Glad to see that I am not alone in my take. Here is the lightly-edited text of the first fifteen comments (I stripped out account names and some redactable language) shown below the video. And this is from the NBCSNL account -- these are the replies to their own tweet, not a derivative commentary re-tweet:
The SNL live audience didn't laugh because the skit wasn't funny & neither is Antisemitism. Especially in light of the resignation of the Penn President hours before the show.
If this is the best the SNL team can offer, I think we were all better off when the union was on strike

Most Cringe Skit ever
This is what happens when comedy is replaced by radical political bias
---
CRINGE AF
making excuses for Jew hating Marxists to boot. Cant give a wrong pronoun, but you can heckle them jews!
Go goose step to old Hitler speeches
---
Objectively not funny. Politically trash. Once again, this is another example of why no one I know my age watches your show, and nor do my teenage kids or anyone I know in between those ages.
---
Live look in the @nbcsnl writing room: [clip of Hitler ranting at a crowd]
---
You all could have easily made fun of the presidents, but instead you chose to make fun of the person questioning them.
Disgusting.
---
SNL died over a decade ago; now it's just a zombified corpse walking around laughing at itself while everyone else ignores it.
---
Jews do not control Hollywood as you can see in this disgusting attempt to make a JOKE about GENOCIDE OF JEWS.
Really? @billmaher
When is enough enough?
---
You guys have lost the plot and your audience. This is flaming hot garbage 🤮
---
Disgusting
---
holy **** this was bad
politics and antisemitism aside it’s unbelievably transparent
leftists must confront that their heroes are low-IQ diversity hires, not the republicans exposing them
---
Omg. Antisemitism really is hilarious right? Make sure to keep writing sketches about it so you can normalize it even more and make it seem trivial. When can we expect a sketch about the nova festival and all the rapes?!
---
Yeah this was bad. Another reason why I don’t watch SNL.
---
This was one of the worst SNL cold opens I've ever seen. The juxtaposition between this and the Clarence Thomas hearing sketch that opened the show 32 years ago illustrates how far the quality has fallen.
Insane *Ho Ho Ho* Wonka 🎅🎄
---
I don't comment on a lot of SNL sketches but this one was CRINGE AS ****!!! Were the writers on strike again?
Those were the first fifteen just based on what was easy to grab. The first fifty were all like that, where I got tired of clicking LIKE on those replies.
What Stefanik did was great. What the diversity-hire University Presidents did was appalling. What SNL just did was to intentionally (and talentlessly) attempt to lampoon Stefanik while frankly covering for the three monsters. This is SNL consciously scripting a stance which GUESS WHAT makes excuses for those making excuses for Jew-hatred from coast to coast in this country, instead reducing the whole thing to nanny-boo-boo-ism to caricature a nasty ol' Republican.
How do we hurt SNL?
If anybody here watches that tripe or any other late-night propaganda, well, at least you have one "action" that you can take. Get hot. I'd like to know who are the advertisers on SNL? How do we get to Lorne Michaels? And I don't want to hear "Well, it's not Michaels' fault, see, because [insert stupid sounds here]." Take that garbage somewhere else. Remedial training in decency thread, I guess.
This post is about actions that can be taken.
To kick things off -- who are some of the advertisers in common who dumped Twitter over free speech while SNL throws Jews under the bus in order to mock Republicans?

The college presidents heaved an alley-oop pass hanging there at the rim, and SNL standing by the hoop clanked the slam dunk.
Boycotts seem to work. (Ask Anheuser-Busch.)
