Carlin was an old school first amendment dude who would’ve defended to the death Chappelle’s right to say what he wants. I’d imagine he’d also be highly critical of many of Chappelle’s recent bits.

We’re talking about a comic who has, recently at least, built his brand on transphobic jokes.
As far as comedians are concerned, you either die a hero: Carlin, Pryor, Kaufman, or live long enough to become the villain: Cosby, Barr, and now Chapelle.
Hydrophobes are not literally afraid of water.
Oh man if only they were braver in person you’d be such a big tough strong man and physically assault them! That would prove so much to everyone about who is in the right! And is also the very most mature thing someone can do!
Lol, my man, I’m pretty left of center, but most of Carlin’s positions and rhetoric would make me look like Mitt Romney. Dude literally talked about getting rid of golf courses to house the homeless, has been talking about the environment since the 70s, and is about as anti-capitalist as any comic in history. I’m…
Words recently put into law are denying trans people rights.
This type of thing is so dumb. Carlin was a hardcore lefty and thoughtful, and he consistently adjusted to the era. Being politically incorrect to Carlin was truly standing up against censorship by the state and corporations. I have zero idea what he’d be like in today’s world, but you have zero idea either. I doubt…
Transphobic can also mean hating trans people.
This isn’t true. Every comedy show I’ve went to, either through hearing the comedian say/tweet/whatever “I’m coming to your town on the 25th of June, grab some tickets and come out. Joe blow is opening for us, he’s a local guy from there, it’ll be a great time”, or in process of purchasing the tickets or whatever, you…
Comparing Dave Chappelle to Screwdriver is a bit of a stretch
You’re right but also people easily triggered should just avoid going to stand-up comedy shows in general.
You almost never know who the opening act is for a comedy show and sometimes you don’t like that act.
God, you’re cringy. The level of writing and fan interaction on this site is in the toilet. Find a new job, scab.
Meanwhile her husband is out here telling us plebs we have to “live with” outcomes we don’t like
She is a monster. An un-American seditionist who has embroiled her husband, a terrible Justice already, in her seditious conspiracy.
Voter representation? Nah, Trump-GOP-grifters don’t have a use for that anymore.
I’m mixed on it. For everything I liked (Skarsgaard, the stale bread) there was something I didn’t (the fake accent got annoying, the pee thing went way too long). Some of the writing was funny in spots, (get the package! *smashes vase* The other vase! And just pick it up. *museum guy facepalms*), and it had a sweet…
Being assholes is their job. That is why they all have gofundme and patreon accounts. People are paying them to be an asshole.
So...no mention of the post credit scene?
