Unpopular opinion: I liked Dave in a show with supporting actors/comics, but as a stand alone stand up he sucks.
Finally, someone said out loud what nobody has: *This special isn’t as funny as it thinks it is,* and because of that, the transphobic jokes look that much more awful. Been following Chappelle since Half Baked, and since his 'woke' move to walk away from CC's money because he didn't like how people were laughing at…
It was easy for Dave Chappelle to respond with his fans cheering him on. He wants you to see that support. Try telling us what you said alone in a room. Stand on your own. You’re coming off like the bully with your goons behind you, you tell’em boss!
And the piece of shit troll is out and pulling other shits out.
It is perfectly fine to make fun of white people. They occupy pretty much every seat of power currently in North America, and have done so since it’s founding (mostly while denying power from minorities). I’m sorry you’re a mediocre white dude who isn’t happy with your life.
“I’m a TERF” isn’t a joke about a group. It’s a political speech announcing membership to a hate group
The only person who forgot Dave Chapelle was a comedian is Dave Chapelle.
“Instead of whining about critical race theory and passing legislation, why won’t you publicly face an actual critical race theorist and hash out your differences? Just admit that you’re OK with police shooting Black people in the face if it means keeping your Subaru safe in your suburban garage.”
I really do believe that once this dust settles and he sees the people who have lined up behind him, it will make him very unhappy. Remember he bad a real break down when he realized that white bros were using him as a para social "black friend" who gave them permission to tell "that kind" of joke.
Intent has never been more important than impact. Intent is the difference between murder and manslaughter, but man slaughter is still very bad.
Dave’s rhetoric gets picked up by people and they then can use that to inflict harm on people. It’s how culture works.
Intent does not negate harm.
“Hell the majority of male friendships are based around roasting one another.”
Those are all good questions.
Dave Chappelle is not our friend. Dave Chappelle is a stranger. Dave Chappelle doesn’t know a single goddamn thing about you, about me, about anyone else listening to his heavily produced and edited stand-up recordings.
Words have power. Ridiculing others on as big a stage as Dave has has impact. Using your logic, there is no issue to white comedians using the N-word to make jokes about black people?
Shut the fuck up, you piece of shit, seriously.
I just like how I can tell halfway through reading the article it’s Michael Harriot.
I just thought The Closer wasn’t very good.
