Bill Burr Blasts Ben Shapiro for Calling Him 'Woke'

Bill Burr didn't mince words when asked about Ben Shapiro's recent comments about him.
During an interview with the New York Times, the comedian was asked about the conservative pundit claiming he's become "woke" in recent years. However, Burr's response showed just how little he cares about what people think his political leanings are.

During a recent installment of his "Monday Morning" podcast, Burr issued a scathing takedown of the powerful elites in the United States.
"The amount of people struggling out there because of these f—— billionaires and they got us all arguing liberal and conservative. We got to stop doing that. I'm so tired of hearing about people going to bed worried about what's going to happen next week," the funny man emphasized. "They need to be put down like f—— rabid dogs."

Despite Burr never being clear about which political party he identifies with, Shapiro wrote an entire essay for Daily Wire about why he feels the stand-up star is verging too much to the left.
After attending one of the Massachusetts native's sets, the Republican claimed, "It turned out to be one of the worst shows I have ever seen in my life because Burr has become woke."

"Over time, I think he became embarrassed that many people on the Right thought he was very funny, so he decided he was going to go woke," Shapiro continued.
The Harvard graduate also condemned Burr's statements about people in Florida. "The audience was not laughing at his jokes because his jokes were basically about how Floridians were a bunch of anti-gay racists," he said.

Although Shapiro's criticism was harsh, Burr responded, "All he knew is if he put 'woke' on what I said, he would make more money. I don't know who he is, but that guy is a jerk-off."
During the candid episode of his podcast, the 56-year-old pointed to Elon Musk as the source of the alleged corruption going on in America.

"I'll tell you what was funny. I made fun of the f—— Twitter guy for f—— heiling not once but twice and I never look at my emails. I was scrolling through my emails and it said my Twitter account had been flagged for inappropriate. I don't even tweet anymore. What a f—– baby. Just like Hitler, a f—— baby," Burr fired off about the tech mogul.
"Up with the fact that the Twitter guy, he's not even from here; he's from South Africa. He comes to this country and wants to turn it into a f—— dictatorship. He doesn't feel that we deserve democracy," he added.
