They could go many places with this, you are 100% correct, but they never seem to touch on some of the obvious democrat insanity. As a registered independent, I completely get when they make fun of the wacked out right...but there is just as much insanity to pick on from the wacked out left, as well, if we are being totally honest here. The one thing I strongly disagree with, is how SNL tries to label every republican or right leaner as some hillbilly idiot. That's not even close to true. I have many friends from both sides of the spectrum, with differing political views, that are completely normal. It would be different if they just made fun of republican leaders...but they always go after regular people on the right, labeling them as if every republican celebrates Jan 6th. That's not even close to being true. The sane people on both sides, share a lot of the same core values and are more than willing to get along. And they do get along.

I think it shows in certain cases that the intention can be the same on both sides, which I think is oftentimes to fight tyranny, but both sides have vastly different views on what's tyranny, I'd point to the cop and Bible examples, in particular. Republicans think that certifying the election is tyrannical, the LEFT, thinks police are tyrannical. In the end it's the state that's tyrannical but the majority of the people don't see why and don't know how to constructively change anything. While on the Bible point, that person believes in seperatation of church and state entirely, and the other person who wants to pull a textbook for whatever reason, most likely due to the mention of something not Christian, might say they believe they're doing it in the name of church and state, even if they are off base, clearly. Same intention, but significantly different conclusions.

"it's almost impossible to tell a person's political affiliation from one statement these days" And yet that doesn't seem to stop people from assuming anyway.

@@Souledex false, they have the same “everyone is against me” mindset, but differ on who they are paranoid about. The lack of understanding that similarity is the reason that we have so much polarization. Yes, Black people are hurting, but so are poor white people, and most of the policies meant to help Black people do it at the expense of poor white people (the actual CRT textbook is rather critical of how affirmative action has been implemented). Poverty matters comparably to race.
@@thrawncaedusl717 true. It’s not even remotely the reason we have this much polarization. 1. No more Soviets 2. Computers can make maps now. 3. 20 years of systematic destruction of the concept of truth The age of information is incompatible with an undereducated weak democracy.
@@thrawncaedusl717 also no affirmative action is basically the only conceivable policy that harms poor white people, who it barely harms it actually harms Asians who overachieve more per capita and are limited by it. The vast vast majority of programs target poverty directly which tends to help black people more because more are impoverished. And there’s no such thing as a CRT textbook.
@@Souledex Critical Race Theory: an Introduction, Third Edition is what I consider to be the CRT textbook (though I may have actually read second edition). Any quotas hurt the poor more than the rich, because the system was already biased towards the rich. Meaningful reform focused on addressing poverty (which helps poor white and Black people) is what I want, but most laws that overtly address race do disadvantage poor white people because they are not designed to control for class as well as race. I am hopeful that this is a growing pain. The “age of information” has given more people a voice than ever before in history; it was inevitable that there would be some conflict at first. If we can get past the initial vitriol, we will genuinely be in position to make positive change that previously would have been impossible (and yes, education is a key part of that, but it needs to be focused on understanding people, including/especially those who are wrong, as much as facts).

"I grew up in Ohio; so I've been playing this game my whole life." This whole skit was freakin' brilliant. And, yeah, context is everything. It's like when surveys ask if one approves of the direction in which the country is heading or whether President Biden is doing a good job -- both the Left and the Right could honestly answer "no," but for very different reasons.
True. Biden felt like a compromise pick on the Democrats part. He was like bringing Coca Cola to a cook out, it is no one's favorite soda, but most people will drink it. So with Biden being more center than most Dems would like, and further left than republicans would like, everyone dislikes him. Which is a sign of a good compromise. If no one is happy, it's a good compromise.

Nice subtle tribute to Robert Guillaume with the host named "Benson DuBois." I'm always so impressed with Keenan's "host" characters, and with him in general. Here is a child star that has found his sweet spot as an adult actor and just continues to nail it. He's not out chasing solo films that don't quite translate to the big screen. He has a venue to create memorable characters of fixed duration and seems to have such savvy in doing it. I don't recall him breaking character a lot like so many SNL cast do. Lots of respect for the guy.

@@metisrune_4279 i dunno man, I’m on thr left, and I’m pretty anti bible. But i don’t believe it should be removed from school, as long as its taught as fiction, it was written by humans just like hamlet
If you don't like reading word spaghetti there's a tldr. No yeah I'm on board with you guys, if it's being taught as... historical isn't the right word... for lack of better words religious understanding/studies I can sort of understand. But it would have to be taught in a religiously neutral way just like if they were to teach the Koran or other religious texts. The goal would have to be understanding and not conversion. Then again there are other ways to teach and foster religious understanding without bringing religious texts. TLDR: I agree, religious texts are controversial and shouldn't be taught as if it was fact.
You missed the whole point. No nerves were touched unless it's the nerves of the people who want to sow division. The whole point of this type of skit (like the one with Tom Hanks) is that both sides aren't very different at all.
They missed such a killer ambiguous line after: "I respect pro athletes who stand up for their beliefs". They go with "which athletes?" "and which beliefs??" but missed "which 'stand up'?"
Honestly, Aaron Rodgers didn’t really stand up for his beliefs. He lied and then got caught. Kyrie Irving stood up for his beliefs, because he was open and honest about it from the beginning.
except the issue for republicans is not about athletes who stand up for their beliefs. It's about doing so while denigrating things that should bring us together.

However, if all you watch is CNN or FOX then you don't know there is a whole other side of politics you only see if you go looking for it on the internet. Why do you think there has been a big tech crackdown that has been going on for a couple of years now. What do you think they're trying to suppress?
@@yee7218 I thought it was a great skit, because I got it, and I haven't liked a SNL skit in years, but I liked this one. He was talking to you at the end when he said "you still don't get it".
I written the skit. It's political... but I am not republican or democrat. I just think it was really ridiculous to see both parties go after each other when trump was president. It was like watching immature kids argue. democrat's would say it's easy to spot a republican because they don't believe in science and the vaccine... I made it a game show and made 2 people guess republican or not and it's because it's not easy to the point where even a person that was part of the republican's party is no longer part of it. It's my jab at just how ridiculous the politics have been getting and how unprofessional and immature it has gotten. I am like Keenan sitting back watching a show take place and laughing at both parties. At the end when it said you still don't get it. It just means you cannot exactly tell what political party they're part of. Yet, the public in this heat of politics are trying to make guesses and get on the defense or attack on someone for being either republican or democrat. Plus since trump been in office the republicans have been the most confused. They don't know if they stand with trump or not and are known to be flip floppers. The skit is just fun an games poking fun but sending a message to relax and don't jump to conclusions and start fights online or in person based on assumptions.
I'm a Republican (mostly) and love the shit outta Dave Chappelle's comedy since waaaay back when nobody knew him that much...the era when he'd show up on Conan doing stand-up..
@@sillyghost98 While Dave has done a lot of pro-Black things on his old show (which would seem Liberal), he's also made a lot of comments in his more recent specials that seem Anti-Trans (Or at the least Anti-PC, which would seem more Conservative).

“I’m from Manhattan.” “New York City or Kansas?” As someone who went to college in Manhattan, KS, you still have pretty decent chances of them being liberal.

I adore sketches like this, much as I enjoy a good solid wacky sketch and doses of absurdity, I love a sketch that does well to satirize the "strangeness" of our perceptions of each other and the mixed bag of opinions people can actually have... and the annoying vagueness they can put out that confuses people, which in PART is possibly (for some) a choice out of wariness of not wanting to wear their heart on their sleeve to end up getting slammed by opposing political groupies, and having their personal web pages burnt to a crisp through flamewars.

@@timhosler6759Yeah, no. Both Sides was past the sell by date long before you opened the box. Read up on how both sides horseshoe Horseshit did in Weimar Germany. Both Sides is only useful to ONE SIDE, the Right. It's only ever employed to absolve Right Wing individuals, actions or rhetoric or to create false equivalency. No one on social media ever follows up "both sides" with anything other than an argument about how the Reactionary position is correct. No one says "both sides" and then advocates for Medicare For All or stricter gun regulation. It's also not the signifier of wisdom people think either. It's the flower of adolescent minded Sophomoric Elitism posing as something weightier.
Plot twist: When Kenan said "I love my job", it was actually him breaking character and saying he loves his job on SNL because he seemed like he was having such a good time in this skit. 😂

Yes... his comment "you still don't get it" is the epiphany. After showing us repeatedly that both sides are hypocritical, its sad to see that the contestants are still trying to play the stupid game after this truth was revealed to them over and over.
Really clever skit! On the surface, I think it's about not jumping to conclusions about a few narrowly framed "facts" about someone. Because the "why" is actually more important. But on a deeper level, I think it also illustrates how narrow framing of issues actually promotes bad faith "both sides" arguments which are destroying our ability to see objective truth.
Because their why is extremely stupid and dangerous? Because they stand for nothing and have done nothing but attack the literal concept of objective truth for 20 years?
THANK YOU. I was scrolling through the comments looking for any indication that someone understood that what makes the sketch funny is how fucking insane republicans are, not how ‘cute’ or ‘trivial’ our ‘differences’ are. There’s a completely different (and deeply stunted) moral calculus on the right; like you said they will abolish truth to make the world seem the way they want it to be.
@@jameseglavin4 Yep - this is also why “both sides” and the media’s efforts to present “two sides” is so dangerous. It’s like if one side is anti-lead in pipes for communities the other side is pro-lead. It’s insane. Sometimes there aren’t two equivalent sides. Sometimes there is simply right or wrong and presenting the “other side” is stacking the deck unfairly for what is inherently wrong. Ugh. I’m depressed now - the media keeps doing this.
Thank god somebody actually understood the sketch. It's blowing my mind how people in the comments think this sketch is making fun of non-Republicans literally at all.

"it's almost impossible to tell a person's political affiliation from one statement these days"
And yet that doesn't seem to stop people from assuming anyway. I had a discussion during one of my lecture classes in where everybody from both parties assumed I was on the opposite side because of something neutral I had brought up. It was fascinating in a way? But also just unfortunate lol.

They agree on niche concepts or conspiracy theories or questions worded to obfuscate anything they stand for but on nothing that affects people's lives
@@Souledex false, they have the same “everyone is against me” mindset, but differ on who they are paranoid about. The lack of understanding that similarity is the reason that we have so much polarization. Yes, Black people are hurting, but so are poor white people, and most of the policies meant to help Black people do it at the expense of poor white people (the actual CRT textbook is rather critical of how affirmative action has been implemented). Poverty matters comparably to race.
@@thrawncaedusl717 true. It’s not even remotely the reason we have this much polarization.
1. No more Soviets
2. Computers can make maps now.
3. 20 years of systematic destruction of the concept of truth
The age of information is incompatible with an undereducated weak democracy.
@@thrawncaedusl717 also no affirmative action is basically the only conceivable policy that harms poor white people, who it barely harms it actually harms Asians who overachieve more per capita and are limited by it.
The vast vast majority of programs target poverty directly which tends to help black people more because more are impoverished.
And there’s no such thing as a CRT textbook.
@@Souledex Critical Race Theory: an Introduction, Third Edition is what I consider to be the CRT textbook (though I may have actually read second edition). Any quotas hurt the poor more than the rich, because the system was already biased towards the rich. Meaningful reform focused on addressing poverty (which helps poor white and Black people) is what I want, but most laws that overtly address race do disadvantage poor white people because they are not designed to control for class as well as race.
I am hopeful that this is a growing pain. The “age of information” has given more people a voice than ever before in history; it was inevitable that there would be some conflict at first. If we can get past the initial vitriol, we will genuinely be in position to make positive change that previously would have been impossible (and yes, education is a key part of that, but it needs to be focused on understanding people, including/especially those who are wrong, as much as facts).

"I grew up in Ohio; so I've been playing this game my whole life." This whole skit was freakin' brilliant. And, yeah, context is everything. It's like when surveys ask if one approves of the direction in which the country is heading or whether President Biden is doing a good job -- both the Left and the Right could honestly answer "no," but for very different reasons.
True. Biden felt like a compromise pick on the Democrats part. He was like bringing Coca Cola to a cook out, it is no one's favorite soda, but most people will drink it. So with Biden being more center than most Dems would like, and further left than republicans would like, everyone dislikes him. Which is a sign of a good compromise.

Nice subtle tribute to Robert Guillaume with the host named "Benson DuBois."
I'm always so impressed with Keenan's "host" characters, and with him in general. Here is a child star that has found his sweet spot as an adult actor and just continues to nail it. He's not out chasing solo films that don't quite translate to the big screen. He has a venue to create memorable characters of fixed duration and seems to have such savvy in doing it. I don't recall him breaking character a lot like so many SNL cast do. Lots of respect for the guy.
I remember when Keenan did All That as a child, which was SNL for kids. Experience helps.
His sitcom didn't quite work though
Just spoke with Keenan. He appreciates your post.
Good catch on the Robert Guillaume references. Good old days.
Kenan is one of the only reasons I watch the show any longer. He is inherently funny and I love that about him.

@@metisrune_4279 i dunno man, I’m on thr left, and I’m pretty anti bible. But i don’t believe it should be removed from school, as long as its taught as fiction, it was written by humans just like hamlet
If you don't like reading word spaghetti there's a tldr.
No yeah I'm on board with you guys, if it's being taught as... historical isn't the right word... for lack of better words religious understanding/studies I can sort of understand. But it would have to be taught in a religiously neutral way just like if they were to teach the Koran or other religious texts. The goal would have to be understanding and not conversion. Then again there are other ways to teach and foster religious understanding without bringing religious texts.
TLDR: I agree, religious texts are controversial and shouldn't be taught as if it was fact.

It’s literally the most basic idea ever... I guess that why people don’t find snl funny it’s to complex for them
Why do people say SNL got “political” after Trump was elected? There were always political sketches
Yeah, like all the way back in the 1970s, when Gerald Ford was President and the country was trying to heal from Vietnam and Watergate.
They missed such a killer ambiguous line after: "I respect pro athletes who stand up for their beliefs". They go with "which athletes?" "and which beliefs??" but missed "which 'stand up'?"
Maybe if they had three contestants instead of two, it would work.
that's pretty obvious, opposite of kneeling
Honestly, Aaron Rodgers didn’t really stand up for his beliefs. He lied and then got caught. Kyrie Irving stood up for his beliefs, because he was open and honest about it from the beginning.
except the issue for republicans is not about athletes who stand up for their beliefs. It's about doing so while denigrating things that should bring us together.

"You still don't get it!"
I written the skit. It's political... but I am not republican or democrat. I just think it was really ridiculous to see both parties go after each other when trump was president. It was like watching immature kids argue. democrat's would say it's easy to spot a republican because they don't believe in science and the vaccine... I made it a game show and made 2 people guess republican or not and it's because it's not easy to the point where even a person that was part of the republican's party is no longer part of it. It's my jab at just how ridiculous the politics have been getting and how unprofessional and immature it has gotten. I am like Keenan sitting back watching a show take place and laughing at both parties. At the end when it said you still don't get it. It just means you cannot exactly tell what political party they're part of. Yet, the public in this heat of politics are trying to make guesses and get on the defense or attack on someone for being either republican or democrat. Plus since trump been in office the republicans have been the most confused. They don't know if they stand with trump or not and are known to be flip floppers. The skit is just fun an games poking fun but sending a message to relax and don't jump to conclusions and start fights online or in person based on assumptions.

Yes... his comment "you still don't get it" is the epiphany. After showing us repeatedly that both sides are hypocritical, its sad to see that the contestants are still trying to play the stupid game after this truth was revealed to them over and over.
Beautifully done
@@HanasDad Tons of people are still doing the same thing in the comments.
exactly this is not difference beweetn d or r. just politcian and people who actylyy work.
Keenan's effortless reactions literally make this skit as funny as it is
I busted out when I saw the popcorn...
@@hydrocarbon82 Me too!
Really clever skit! On the surface, I think it's about not jumping to conclusions about a few narrowly framed "facts" about someone. Because the "why" is actually more important. But on a deeper level, I think it also illustrates how narrow framing of issues actually promotes bad faith "both sides" arguments which are destroying our ability to see objective truth.
Because their why is extremely stupid and dangerous? Because they stand for nothing and have done nothing but attack the literal concept of objective truth for 20 years?
THANK YOU. I was scrolling through the comments looking for any indication that someone understood that what makes the sketch funny is how fucking insane republicans are, not how ‘cute’ or ‘trivial’ our ‘differences’ are. There’s a completely different (and deeply stunted) moral calculus on the right; like you said they will abolish truth to make the world seem the way they want it to be.
@@Souledex Yes - that’s why I said understanding the why is more important.
@@jameseglavin4 Yep - this is also why “both sides” and the media’s efforts to present “two sides” is so dangerous. It’s like if one side is anti-lead in pipes for communities the other side is pro-lead. It’s insane. Sometimes there aren’t two equivalent sides. Sometimes there is simply right or wrong and presenting the “other side” is stacking the deck unfairly for what is inherently wrong. Ugh. I’m depressed now - the media keeps doing this.
Thank god somebody actually understood the sketch. It's blowing my mind how people in the comments think this sketch is making fun of non-Republicans literally at all.
Living in Phoenix, Arizona, I've been playing this game nonstop for the last 5 years
Living in Phoenix, Republican. Voting after you have died in Phoenix, Democrat.
kenan always nails his game show characters, it's amazing.
"You still don't get it" Perfect ending line. I hope this is a recurring skit. It sure needs to be.
It's almost like the movie Network. Incredible performance right there
They still don't get it so it'll keep happening until they do
This is one of the best sketches they've ever done
Agreed! It's an excellent visualization of America today.
Most definitely timely 👏👏👏.
"I believe Black Lives Matter...at the abortion clinic. "
@@michaelmclaughlin261 Keeping it classy, eh?
@@trialgoddess I'm just trying to play along with the premise.
This is good. Hits both sides equally.
One more that they could have used:
"I read the Times every day, but would never read the Post."
"Republican!"
"Ooh, sorry. This person lives in Washington, DC, not New York City."
I think the Times in NYC is the more left wing one my guy
Yeah definitely punched up the screw line
I love how Kenan gets so much enjoyment from seeing their confusion and frustration
This is brilliant. I wish it was a recurring sketch & I hope it goes viral
We clearly need a second edition of this skit. :)
Game show sketches are purely written for Kenan to play the host, you can’t convince me otherwise😂
So true!!
he should stop the foreplay n leave snl to be an actual gameshow host at this point
Kenan plays Kenan, which does make for a good game show host, but I don't know if anyone did "random game show host" as well as Bill Hader.
Well, once upon a time, it was Bill Hader.
@@thresss5366 No.
Damn this sketch was fire! Keenan is the shit! So much cleverness all around. New cast members are great.
The slow burn while the crowd processes that Capitol joke made my night...
I love when Keenan is the game show host😂😂😂
