I wouldn't really say Frankie Boyle is an edge lord
Back when he was making shit jokes about Rebecca Adlington, he wasn't always punching up and had positioned himself on the Jimmy Carr "Only snowflakes get offended so I'm being radical just by being nasty" hill. He seems to have grown up a lot since. Stopping drinking probably helped; I suspect a lot of his nastiest jokes, back then, were made/tweeted while shitfaced, although he would double down on them defensively when he woke up sober. He's pretty good value now.

I wouldn't really say Frankie Boyle is an edge lord, he's certainly got a dark sense of humour but almost all of what he says is punching up and he's a fair bit to the left of labour now and last time round, he's also one of the few people in a public position who's been vocally condemning Netanyahu's actions pre and post Oct 7th.
