Bowen Yang is done taking flack for Shane Gillis getting fired from Saturday Night Live.Both Yang and Gillis were announced as cast members in 2019, a year after Yang began working as a writer for the show. Within a day, old clips of Gillis making racist and homophobic "jokes" in relatively recent episodes of his podcast. He then shared an underwhelming non-apology on Twitter, writing, "Im a comedian who pushes boundaries. I sometimes miss. If you go through my 10 years of comedy, most of it bad, youre going to find a lot of bad misses. Im happy to apologize to anyone whos actually offended by anything Ive said."A few days later, SNL announced that Gillis would no longer be joining the cast.Now, the comedian is slated to return for his second time hosting the show. Its a controversial decision, considering the last time didnt go over so well, and a lot of people simply dont find him funny. But some of his fans are itching to shift the narrative and roping Yang into the drama in the process."Can we acknowledge that Bowen Yang bitched him off the show- and hes the bigger man to come host after being unfairly ditched bc of a whiny queen," someone named @michelle.k.best wrote on SNLs Instagram post. "SNL fired him as a hater. Hes not. Hes very kind and has smart humor and stands up to bullying. Good for him!"Her comment sparked a back-and-forth, which eventually even drew Yang himself into the conversation."@michelle.k.best didnt do any of this but i wrote the sketch you were a background actor in."Yang has previously spoken about his own experiences surrounding Gilliss firing, telling The New Yorker last fall that being roped into the narrative online made him feel "incidental to this big national story about cancel culture.""Anytime our names are in the same sentence, at least in a journalistic way it feels like one person is trying to undo the other," he told Variety following Gilliss last appearance as host. "I think he and I have done enough things in our careers now to really not [have] that be the definitive beginning or the thing that casts a pall over everything else that we do going forward."
