Does he actually think this, or was it an attempt at comedy?

He doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. Dude is a complete asshole

[–] rafoix@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do his kids hate him? He totally seems like someone that is hated by their own kids.

He publicly commented on his kid's weight idsues soyes he is likely hated by his kids.

Everyone deserves benefit of a doubt without more context. I don't even know what you're referring to about him being an asshole.

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 31 points 1 week ago

He's anti vax, transphobic, and made a comedy special about "wokeness".

He's a right-wing nut job asshole

It's hard to tell, honestly. On one hand, dude was never all that funny and he turned out to be a fucking weirdo. On the other hand, having a cursory knowledge of infant/childhood mortality in the past would make this a darkly humorous joke.

I suspect this was a joke. He has written comedy in the past.

He had one skit written by the 12 year old, something about a photocopier.

[–] QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He wrote a famous sketch featuring Kirstie Allie who called it the funniest thing she has ever done. It was a solid sketch.

Sandler and Smigel wrote that sketch. Not Schnieder.

Calling it "comedy" is a bit of a stretch.

Some of the stuff he wrote for others was good. “Il Cantore” is his best sketch.
