Comedian Marlon Wayans is speaking out against “🚫Cancel Culture.”

In an interview with Buzzfeed, Wayans spoke about his 2004 movie “White Chicks” and whether a similar kind of movie would “thrive” today.

“I think they’re needed. I don’t know what planet we’re on, where you think people don’t need laughter, and that people need to be censored and canceled. If a joke is gonna get me canceled, thank you for doing me that favor,” he said.

Wayans also said that it’s sad that “society is in this place where we can’t laugh anymore.”

Continuing, he said, “And if you want to make some money, jump on board. And if not, then I’ll find a way to do it myself. I know my audience.
