Comedy club CANCELS comics who didn't align with 'progressive values'

A comedy club in Seattle has canceled four comedians after the venue decided their acts did 'not align with the neighborhood's progressive values.'

It might seem like a bad joke, but the Hill Comedy Bar, known for promoting the voices of the queer community, had booked comics Jim Florentine, Dave Smith, Luis Gomez and Kurt Metzger for some upcoming shows before scrapping them.

But Florentine, known for his edgy and outspoken style, is among the foursome whose shows were scrapped. He is now predicting the club will ultimately close down following the decision.
