No, I didn't get that. I'd never heard of him before. Because Otto recommended him

I had a look. I didn't have any "back story" on him and all I saw was a homophobe telling homophobe jokes. Would it be OK if he created a neo-nazi persona to tell jokes about Jews? Or a KKK pesona to tell "nigger" jokes?

I think this an Emperor's New Clothes thing - he's actually just Bernard Manning, but he's convinced people that he's ironic.
