I’m not really moved by the “I can’t be racist, I have a black friend,” argument, which is all Dave is doing.

Makes me wonder if his real brand was always just contrarian, and back in the day that put him on the side of making good points. Now though things have shifted and his former ‘no one else is saying this’ is things lots of people say, so he flips to stay contrarian.
So it was okay to have fifteen million Benghazi hearings but we need to move on from a bunch of unseasoned food eating, Roll Tide chanting, bitch ass mother fuckers trying to overturn an election? Bitch sit your flat ass down and do not get up unless someone white calls for you. Sunny Hostin looked like she was ready…
You can’t pick and choose who you’re going to make fun of.
This what I what I was afraid of. Chappelle is going to dig into the whole “I’m being silenced” edgelord thing and use this as fuel to be even more contrarian.

And it just happened to come from a game published by Amazon.
If he had access to humanity he would have never been CEO in the first place.
I’ve gone back and forth over how I feel about Chappelle and did muse about Gadsby’s special and how it also upset many people and made them uncomfortable. And if Netflix should pull Chappelle’s stuff (and Sam Kinison while they’re at it).

There is nothing risky about showcasing transphobia in a transphobic society. This is not honesty. It is just cruelty. Trans people should not have to be subjected…
Additionally, Sarandos’ insistence that seeing violence, assault, and abuse on television doesn’t translate to “real-world harm” directly contradicts past practices of Netflix. In March 2017, the series 13 Reasons Why premiered on Netflix, based on the YA series of the same name.
Pretty sure it’s not the role of a cis-guy to decide that trans people aren’t being harmed when they are telling him that they are.
Replace terf with nazi or proud boy and there ya go. You must be team bigot as well.
I hate this defense.
Is it because he claimed to be team TERF? How is that harmful to you or anyone else?
It’s just stand up...
An excuse to express your real homophobic feelings.
Richard Pryor, Sam Kinnison, and George Carlin all were immensely funny and popular. They also broke the “PC” barriers on a nightly basis. Without being offensive to any specific race, religion, or sexual orientation.
Chapelle seems to be playing the Jerry Seinfeld card. Jerry said he couldn’t do college shows a few years back. What Jerry failed to realize, is those college kids’ parents found him funny. Of course he wasn’t going to do college shows, ever. He plays charity and award shows for millionaires (at least). Chapelle is…
