So, the place can we purchase the T-shirt?

A Los Angeles-based comic determined to hilariously name out Fox News on TikTookay over the weekend for taking a joke she made manner too critically.

“Story time!

The entire fiasco began in December, when Hart revealed a satirical and hyperbolic TikTookay wherein she quips that “the feminism left my body” after “the most guy’s guy I’ve ever been on a date with” paid for his or her dinner and drinks.

Hart explains in her video that she usually dates “men and women” who’re on the “artsier” facet, however when she dates these kind of individuals there’s “always a negotiation about who pays.”

But when this “bro” threw “down his card” and provided to pay “for everything” throughout her current date, she was hooked.

Although many who watched the TikTookay understood that it was a gag, it appears many conservatives thought it was honest. This appears particularly odd being that Hart’s TikTookay account boasts a number of movies of her doing standup.

In Hart’s follow-up TikTookay revealed over the weekend, Hart says that conservative political commentator Matt Walsh misinterpreted her TikTookay on her podcast. She then goes on to quote a number of right-wing assume items revealed about her, which incorporates one on an internet site known as Red State, with the headline, “Feminist Discovers That the Patriarchy Is Actually Pretty Great.”

But Hart had no concept that her joke had made its manner onto Fox News till her estranged father who’s an “avid Republican” known as her as much as inform her he was so “proud” that she was on “Jesse Watters Primetime.”

In a clip from the phase that Hart posted to her follow-up TikTookay, Watters proclaims {that a} man paying for a date “apparently is a foreign concept to women today.”

Watters then performs snippets from Hart’s joke on TikTookay, leaving Hart guffawing and verbally questioning, “Why is this on national news?”

It appears that Watters’ phase did certainly air on the community. TVEyes Media Monitoring has a transcript of it, and a video displaying the latter a part of the phase is on Fox News’ YouTube account.

In the clip obtainable on YouTube, Watters speaks to a “dating connoisseur” named Julia Rose — whose solely {qualifications} to talk on the topic is that she’s single, engaging and a lady. Watters and Rose go on to speak an entire lot of nonsense about how a lot a date prices these days, whether or not or not masculinity is lifeless and bolstered gender norms.

Hart informed HuffPost that Fox News by no means reached out to her to ask permission to make use of her TikTookay within the Watters phase.

“Men don’t think women (or anyone besides the white/straight/cis male) can be funny on purpose,” Hart informed Buzzfeed about why she thinks her satirical TikTookay was wildly misinterpreted. This stems from a basic lack of respect for anybody who isn’t a part of their in-group.”

Although it appears Hart obtained a kick out of the entire thing, it did have one critical draw back.

“In my TikTok I say that I’m bisexual, and most of my extended family did not know that I was bisexual,” Hart mentioned in her follow-up video. “They all saw the clip because they all watch Fox News every night. So that is also how I came out to my entire extended family, via Fox News.”
