Dude I don't know what your bright-line test is for some of those qualifications but Shane 100% voted for Trump if he voted for anyone this last election. All of those guys did.

You can vote for someone and lean towards their party and then later on not approve of their presidency.

I never saw or heard of him before the twit-X flurries last week after the ESPYs.  I found his routine a little trite and contrived but his adenoidal memememe Trump impression (you can do it anybody can do it just don’t move anything but your hands and refer to “people say” this and that). He’s kind of like a good order of fries; not that good for you but you eat all of them. He’s no Katt Williams but he’s not bad.

Shane Gillis is an ok comedian, he admitted himself he bombed both SNL monologues, but Derka’s take that all people that don’t like him are social justice warriors is more cringe than anything Shane has done.
 

For those not familiar with his work I’d steer you towards his Netflix show Tires, it’s pretty fucking funny and has a bunch of the same mid level comedians he falls in with as bit characters.

yeah, you really don’t know anything about him, and you’ve proven that you aren’t interested in changing your mind, which is truly ironic. you are actively doing one of the main things that you hate about right wingers: being close minded, judgmental, and dug in, with zero interest in having your mind changed.

ive posted way more than enough anecdotal evidence to prove that your post is nowhere near the truth, but you simply have zero interest in having your mind changed. you’ve decided that he’s a right wing, anti-woke comic, and you are not interested in hearing anything that might change your mind about that. all you want to hear is support of what you already believe. that sound familiar to you?

you leftists and right wingers are so much more similar than you realize when it comes to this shit.

He's OK in small doses and the maga criticism is far overblown but just too much of a bro-y vibe for me to get into him. The pat macaffe of the comedy world.

Is this your first time ever hearing a comedian?

Shane is pretty funny at times. My favorites right now are Segura and Jeselnik by a long shot.

Despite Rogan being a troglodyte and Tony trying too hard to be a Nazi, I enjoy Kill Tony a lot. Kam, Adam Ray, Casey are all great. Shane isn’t really part of that though. At least he certainly didn’t come up through it even if he’s on it now.

Not even close which is why I said it was low hanging fruit.  

Not very many comedians don't make fun of people in their audiences, hell, junior high kids have this perfected which is why once again, I called it low hanging fruit.

Anyone who actually believes shit like this about themselves is a horrible human being.

This is kinda where I am with him. I've seen some good shit from him but regardless of politics the bro thing is annoying and gets old quick. The Pat Mcafee comp is pretty good, there are some clips out there from his show that are genuinely interesting, but I can't fathom watching him on a daily basis for hours on end. The clips of Gillis from his shows are better than his standup, more controlled delivery.

I saw clips of the trump-biden show that was pretty good and followed up by watching some Kill Tony and it was okay. I thought Kam Patterson was pretty funny, some of the others were too, but Kill Tony himself is painfully bro-y is just unfunny. To the extent there is some perception of Gillis as some maga idol it almost certainly comes from his close association with Rogan, Tony, and that crew (especially when Tony went full racist with a really stupid joke about Puerto Ricans). I've seen some clips where he sort of distances himself from that perception and I believe that he's far more normal than those shitstains. Either way, Derka's over the top love post is kinda creepy.

Maybe I haven't seen enough of his act, but he comes off as a guy who generates a lot of headlines for a pretty mid comedian.  He doesn't elicit nearly enough chuckles when I watch his specials for me to keep seeing him pop up in my feed with somebody having a hot take on whatever he's done this week. 

He's sort of the anti-Bill Burr in the sense that my sides hurt at the end of every Bill Burr special, so if people want to have an angle on this bit or that, I'm fine with it since in total Burr is fucking hilarious.
