Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted September 1, 2019 Posted September 1, 2019 I'm not a guy who would vote for Trump but the reaction this Chappelle special is a perfect example of why people voted for him. A good piece of advice for the Dems/Libs if they want to win in 2020, stop having rich white celebrities and white privileged college kids, telling the white working class why they are everything that is wrong with America. I honestly think it is fine for black Americans to call out white privilege, although I think the term hurts their cause. But rich white people constantly shitting on less fortunate whites is a big reason why we have Trump.

It was also 11 or 12 years ago. He’s been around since then. I saw it Saturday night and loved it. He’s probably going to (or already has) offend some groups with it but I think in this day in age some people need to be offended. If you love stand up and aren’t a wuss check it out.

IMO, absolutely hysterical and not politically correct at all, at all. Dave is basically saying he doesn't give a bleep and throws down the gauntlet to the overly pc crowd. Dave is my favorite comedian of all-time and everything he puts out is worth watching. I suggest to everyone that likes great comedy to watch this. Please ignore any bias articles telling you to skip it. IMO those people just don't want to have to defend their point of view and Dave questions them hard. It is easier to demonize Dave and tell people not to watch then to actually have to defend why you believe what you believe in. Yup one of the GOATs for sure, one of the few standup guys I'll watch whatever he puts out On 9/1/2019 at 5:50 AM, Marv's Neighbor said: No doubt he's very funny but just hope he has his mind sh*t together now and does not just disappear again. From what I understand Hollywood/showbiz tried to disappear him, it wasn't exactly of his own volition.

Dave is on his way to becoming the Lenny Bruce/George Carlin of this generation. It was a brilliant performance. 3

The stuff he says in the special seem to be more about saying what Conservatives want to or do say and get in trouble The wife and I started watching it last night. I had to put it fon pause when my daughter came into the room somewhere around the R Kelly part. Edited September 2, 2019 by RaoulDuke79 1

It was a brilliant performance. He’s the best right now. Maybe best ever at the end of the day? I saw him in Rochester in 2003 (I believe). We had front row seats. Chappelle was doing a mix of his current (at that time) act mixed in with a few new tid bits. He was killin it. About 30 minutes into the show, this jerk pushed his way past security and walked right down the aisle and sat on the aisle stairs about 6 rows up. The man disrupted the show with his actions, but also continued to try to disrupt the show by making comments to Chappelle. What ensued with the dialogue between Dave and this ahole, off the cuff, was perhaps the funniest part of the show. It took about 5 minutes before an “escort squad” was assembled to remove this dude. But DC totally humiated the guy. It was priceless. 2 1

NOW what do i HAVE to worry ABOUT??? been working all weekend at the office.... and just find this new development out???? I guess a plastic straw man would make these people gleefully get more outraged and pile up higher stack of self-righteous poker chips?
Royale with Cheese Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 I always felt like his stand up was decent, his show was better. I really liked this stand up special...definitely a good watch. 1

Correction. At the time, the media portrayed him as not being right.Trust me, I was buying it hook line and sinker just like everyone else.But once he finally came out with his side of the story, he actually seemed quite reasonable. Not the path I would have necessarily taken, but it was definitely a sane, thought out, calculated decision. 2

I'm a Republican, and I LOVE the fact the Chappelle has pissed off the left! 15 years ago, you could watch a comedy show, and whether you agreed with the point or not, go, "haha, that's pretty funny!" irregardless. I love the fact that he doesn't care who he offends. It's a show. It's comedy. It's supposed to be offensive. That's the damn point. Edited September 4, 2019 by CLTbills 2

And most thing loved by audiences are hated by critics..... (not saying either ratings right) Most times the critics try to seem smarter and more Intellegent by picking boring and crappy things because it makes them feel smarter to act like your just not smart enough to get it. Meanwhile most of the general public that actually vote or rate things on websites are people who vote for reality tv shows and enjoy keeping up with the Kardashians........
