Chappelle (and nearly every single comedian like him) has made a career out of taking the piss out of minority and majority groups alike.

Saying that I’m a fairly liberal individual should be an unnecessary preamble to my post, but since I’ll be attacked by the thought police and liberal warriors that apparently dominate this site, both on staff and in the comment sections, I think it’s necessary in this instance.

Much of Chappelle’s “Closer” set revolves around his admittance that he doesn’t understand them, but doesn’t have to. He just has to respect that they’re having a human experience, and that same rule applies to all sexes, genders, races, etc.

Remember like, two days ago, when a shit-ton of clearly cishet white dudes (who obviously consider having watched The Chappelle Show a decade ago to be the equivalent of having a “One Black Friend” card to play and are still posting Tyrone Biggums gifs to this day) weighed in to say, “no, it’s cool, I helped…

The shitty state of The AV Club getting us rid of people like you is the greatest argument in favor of Jim Spanfeller’s management I’ve seen yet!

The internets.

“Okay, time to start a movement to get Michelle Obama involved in electoral politics as a candidate for the Senate or Congress. If the dems lose again, Michelle is the sure bet for 2024.”

He shot her in the face, why no attempted murder charge?

Here too, the intervention of any police was largely non-existent. Though they had days of warning that a hate group was coming to Kalamazoo, the reporter on the scene, Samuel J. Robinson, noted that cops were no where to be found when the violence erupted between the two groups.

Sure is a lot of concern about completely unrelated stories down in the greys.

I watched Akira for the first time earlier this year, and didn’t for one second think it reflected current events in any serious way, yes the police are cunts and the Olympics were due to take place in 2020, but the rest of the article is a ridiculous stretch.

Two things:

I mean pickles on sandwiches of all kinds predates Chickfila probably by a century. 

It’s extra depressing to see the logical gymnastics some people are willing to perform to defend a blackface joke.

According to the article,

When two days ago i predicted on my comment on another Root article that “they” would say the “real” cause of death was “an underlying condition,” I thought maybe I was being too cynical. But sadly, this is exactly what they are doing to exonerate the murderer who put his full shin and at least half of his weight for…

The underlying legal principle, for us mere non-cop mortals at least, is supposed to be that you take your victim as you find them. As soon as you set to mean harm, then you take the consequences of that harm regardless if you end up causing more harm than you first set out to. Cop set out to cause harm by kneeling on…

Well actually

I look at like this way, sure Biden probably says the wrong thing now and again but I believe Rep James Clyburn (the guy that saved Biden’s campaign) knows him well enough that he knows his presidency will bring the right, smart and qualified people back to the government with a possibility of getting better and away…

“Text Woke” is somehow even more cynical than both the T-shirt and Klobuchar’s running to the NAACP for cred.
