In a very dark sketch, SNL points out we still don't know how to talk about Aziz Ansari

Few people would probably imagine the horrifying accusations of sexual assault that have gone public in the past few months, collectively referred to as the #MeToo movement, as a dinner party conversation.

But maybe "Saturday Night Live" was making a point Saturday in its sketch about a literal dinner party: that much of the public conversation about celebrities accused in #MeToo proceeded largely in head-nodding consensus, like agreeable table talk to pass the time while the waiter brings coffee.

Almost no one defended movie mogul Harvey Weinstein after his accusers came forward last year.
