Is that the “You're an atheist?! Do you not even pray?!†“No I don't buddy. “ one? painful.

He was last bothered about that 15+ years ago to be fair
Gervais is to Yank boomers what James Corden is to Yank millennials.

He's just going through the motions to get more £/$
He does go on near the end of his show about he believes in trans rights. How he believes in a lot of things, but still jokes about them. Don't think the wee token comment worked though as folk are raging

Actually find Gervais a fascinating case study in the mental gymnastics people will put themselves through to feel like they're the victim. Being paid millions to punch down at some of the most marginalised people in our society, but he's the victim in the situation because people don't find it funny. The culprit? Bizarrely, people not liking to have their views challenged.

You could have just said that you like him because he tells it how it is, ice cream boy.

Something very Lawson about the cadence of this post imo.
I like when folk do offensive jokes but looking at some of these clips that is absolute muck from Gervais there. It's barely a joke as I'm not seeing any set up or punchline just a sarcastic moan. Weird.
