i haven't seen all of chappelle's newer netflix specials but a good friend of mine was bugging me to watch this one and we had nothing to do last night so we fired it up.

it was definitely worth it. chappelle has pretty much had enough of the "cancel culture" and "#metoo" stuff (and also takes shots at jussie smollett) and this is the hardest i've laughed at something in a while.

of course, when i googled this special, various articles came up basically trying to "cancel" chappelle. he's transphobic, he's racist (which is hilarious, considering most progressives will try to protect any "person of color" they deem worth of their bias) and he's "out of touch" and "tarnishing his legacy".

this special will still be funny 20 years from now, because he's touching on that timeless quality of humor: insight and reflection. he's admitting that these things bother him, and he's being honest about his reactions.

what's considered progressive now will most likely backfire in the coming years, and all these "writers" denouncing chappelle will probably be forgotten about.

it's like zig ziglar said: no one's ever erected a statue for a critic.

chappelle also describes a really good exchange with standards & practices from back during the "chappelle's show" days. it perfectly sums up the hypocrisy of what constitutes "offensive".

:D :D :D :D out of :D :D :D :D

Anyone who has seen him live the last two years knew the trans jokes were going to be part of this special.

Glad he is the famous person with the balls to speak up.

Will watch this soon.

I was sitting at mass this weekend and I saw the most politically right wing, conservative catholic guy that I know walk into church with his son in a sun dress and was struck at God's sense of humor.

Watched it when it came out and yeah it was great.

I probably enjoyed it more because of the online bullshit outrage that followed it.

Fortunately, no one cares what Vice.com and Julie DiCaro think.

not sure if its a "must not", but was told if you don't pause it and watch it all the way through, theres a 20 minute Q and A at the end of the credits. I followed those instructions and it was there.

It appears the “outrage” over this special is non existent outside of some clickbait websites. The overly woke crowd is being shouted down for not being able to stomach some offensive humor.

I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Juicy Smollee’!!!!

Sorry if I missed you guys talking about it but Mac and Parkins had news the other day. come December Eddie Murphy returns to hos SNL. Also, he is going to launch stand up and projects again as Netflix I think gave him a big contract. If he can come back even as a shell of himself and not giving a fuck I am 1000 % in.

Eddie Murphy's spot on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee was really good.

Had to turn it off. I'm shocked this would be celebrated in 2019. 2014 maybe but not now with all the progress we have made.

Coming after the Carlin/Hicks crown for showing society how idiotic we all are :lol:

I enjoyed this more than the previous Netflix special. He had a lot more energy in this one.

Latest special was fantastic.

Was thinking about using a ten minute clip in the classroom, but it's just not gonna fly. It's too bad.

Other than the one Vice article and The Atlantic chiming in with their SJW gospel take, not seeing much fuss about this latest Chappelle special. Twitter mentions mostly positive, with a lotta straw-man "anyone who doesn't like this must suck" tweets before moving on to dance on Tulsi Gabbard's campaign's grave. I'd rather watch an hour of Tulsi Gabbard in yoga pants than an hour of some roided up dude complaining about how difficult life is for TV personalities.
