That was over justified problems of transphobia, and not nearly the same scale of reaction. I also wouldn't really call a compilation of stand up sessions to be a movie, though that is neither here nor there.

I can't actually think of any films that attracted the same foaming at the mouth as you see by conservatives.

It wasn't justified though. The humorless hordes who complained not only could not take a joke, but also were irate at everyone else not being similarly offended.

Perhaps his set isn't to the comedic tastes of everyone, but there's an easy solution to that: don't watch it if you don't like it.

Could that be because you are stuck in an echo chamber and experiencing confirmation bias? "The outrage is legitimate when we do it"

Feels like if it were widespread on both sides it wouldn't be all that challenging for you to come up with an example. What's the prominent leftist equivalent of Ben Shapiro ranting for 43 minutes about the Barbie movie? (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/ben-shapir...)

I have pondered that possibility at length but have yet to see any compelling evidence or reason to believe that it is accurate. Some outage is legitimate and some is not, and a qualitative assessment like I performed will reveal which is which. "Both sides" are very different entities, far from being two sides of the same coin despite the common shallow rhetoric that tries to persuade otherwise.
