Comedian and podcaster Marc Maron has criticized comics who complain about "wokeness" impeding their comedy material, calling it a "hackneyed position" and "lazy comedy." He argued that going up on stage to attack trans people, LGBTQ, or liberals is "just getting juice from it" and that some comics are being used by right-wing ideology to justify division. Maron added that his latest HBO special tackled personal tragedy instead of easy cultural targets. He also questioned why comics wouldn't want to be "woke," a term he defined as "open-minded and empathetic."
