I looked at this 2 times and for the life of me I can’t see a causes the massive outrage. It’s as if they are just saying you can’t talk about them but they do things to make you talk about them.

One day people will realize that this "not be afraid of being canceled" is a hell of marketing strategy that works. Hell you had nikkas on here saying that his comedy special don't have to be funny all because they like the fact that he's "fighting back" against groups they don't like.

That’s what it comes down too. They’ve been used to emasculating straight black men for the longest. The audacity of one pushing back is unusual to them.
ehhhh

Him "pushing back" is just mocking them and making jokes and moving on. He could make 1 trans joke per special and never mention the context of it ever again and his critics would just have to eat that L.

He fukks up cause he keeps trying to explain and set up all this bullshyt nuance.

Anti-vaxxers do the same shyt with the: "I'm not against vaccines but...blah blah" narrative.

He keeps circling back to defending and clarifying and prevaricating, etc.

HES gassing this.

I dont give a fukk anymore

This is coming off as a dude who feels the culture war is moving beyond him.

shyt was weird when he started asking people to help him get his TV show deal back. Now he's just talking in circles about trans people.

Just stand on your own two and say: "its weird and I dont get it so I'm going to mock them" and keep it moving. No one knows what he's talking about and trying to get at anymore.

Theres no goal here other than hearing yourself talk.

I don't really get that part either. Dave made his views on this shyt know a while back. I didnt understand really telling people "This is my opinion. fukk it if you don't like it, get over it". Then being the one to bring it up again on a whole ass special. And now here it is again, another action on his part reigniting it.

Like, bruh, if this is a situation where "I said what I said, fukk whoever don't like it".

Then let that shyt be? You don't need to repeat yourself, relitigate the shyt, do another fukking special on it... You already said your piece and told nikkas to eat shyt. :yeshrug:

Yeah this. I dunno, maybe its profitable for him? Maybe he likes it?

But he keeps reigniting it. If I said some shyt and I was concrete in it, Im not repeating myself in this scenario. "I said what I said" means what it means man. You heard me the first time.

nikka still talking about trannys and cancel culture :dahell:. Boy so white wished

Let me ask you something if I was trying to take your livelihood and stop you from eating. You just going to take it and rollover or are you going to at least demand a fair hearing.

It’s a lot of very purposeful obtuseness where people know exactly what was being said but are intentionally playing dumb to push an agenda. Kind of like most of the replies in here actually

take his livelihood :mjlol:

The anti-trans community just likes him mocking trans people but they dont wanna just say that so they couch it in this free speech shyt :mjlol:

Dave himself can't even stand by what he says so he has to pretend he's under attack.

Someone who "doesn't care" isn't trying to address every blog comment about his last joke. Thats an insecure comedian.

Point flew over your head.

He prefaced the conversation by saying it wasn't about the LGBT community. That it was about the media.

He is shedding light on what they do, but ultimately putting the power in the hands of the people.

Makes sense when you look at his reviews. Panned by professional critics, loved by members of the public.

You don't really believe this do you? The community literally came together and responded to his wishes to get him paid for Chapelle show reruns.

Dave Chappelle reflects on finally getting the rights to his "Chappelle’s Show"

Chapelle: “It wasn’t a court of law. I don’t believe I would have got anything in a court of law,” he continued. “I think, in the court of public opinion, it was a good time for me to say my piece and through the years it wasn’t something I would harp on… It was something I was actually reluctant to talk about.”

He even directly admits that public opinion from people like us helped get that pushed through. His base has done nothing but support him. He wasn't "cancelled" after he made his views on the Trans community known, he got a whole special that did numbers and two more after that. The man is eating.

I don't understand his obsession with this specific issue among so many SO many others. He keeps circling back around to it. At this point I have to assume he's enjoying whatever it is. :manny:


Maybe for him, its the principle of the matter. If it is, then it's whatever. But lets not act like we aren't noticing that he's really dialed in on this shyt for some reason.

Dave dumb ass said it was about white people like black people aren't also apart of the LGBTQ community

but keep on
