latest episode of her “Good For You” podcast, Cummings railed against the political left, saying that end of the political spectrum has become hypocritical and censorious in recent years.“I always thought of myself as a pretty liberal person,” Cummings said. “But I don’t think the Left is as liberal as it used to be.

It’s like the Left became the party of censorship.”The comedian said she had to start speaking up about the problems on her side of the political aisle.“It’s just wild to me that we are in a time where, if you are on the left and you don’t criticize your party, how much do you even care about your party?

Do you know what I mean? It’s like what’s going on on the left – I had to say, like, I finally just broke,” she said.Cummings continued, characterizing her previous support for the left as her having “Stockholm Syndrome.”She added her realization that “if you love your party, you have to be able to criticize it, you know?

And I don’t really take sides.”The comic then quipped about liberal hypocrisy, saying, “’My body, my choice, but you have to take this vaccine,’ and ‘My body, my choice, pro-choice party, but you don’t have a choice in your candidate.’”“I’m not an expert on politics, which is why I’ve always said I’m not weighing in on it, but I am an expert on hypocrisy, OK?
