I'm a leftist who has been a Bill Burr fan, and who is wildly disappointed he did a show in Saudi Arabia because of the naked hypocrisy of it.
Listen to his own past comments (starting at 30 seconds in):

He did exactly what past him was (rightfully) calling someone else out for. So, yeah, I think its fair game to call him out for it.
Voicing your displeasure that someone did something is not "cancelling" them (whatever that even means anymore).
Don’t kid yourself, you are effectively “canceling” them in an environment where the federal government is already making it hard for them to express their views. The left needs to have more of a long term view rather than just pulling down all the people standing up for them at the slightest deviation from what is expected. Soon there won’t be anyone left and the other team is chomping at the bit to eat you up.
‘Effectively canceling?’ Is Bill Burr silenced somehow?
Ironically, he is being silenced - the contracts he signed in order to perform prohibit badmouthing the Saudi regime and its policies
