I don't know if anyone has started this thread yet but I wanna see what the slap left wingers say about it.
-
it was really funny , i listened to it twice on my way to work, not his best work but still better then most . my friend fell asleep watching it but then again he doesn’t get seinfeld . are the left wingers supposed to laugh at this or cringe ? i suppose they despise it cause he made of them and i see it got bad reviews nexuses he made fun of the audience

SG is so pathetic.
It was fine. He's not as funny now cause he's super rich and (relatively) old, not cause he's too offensive.

Still a legend and I was born in USSR.

some people are just bored and like to start shit . good thing some of actually skate and have other things to do.

I think the fact the comments sections on his bits are praising it for being “offensive” rather than “funny” says all that needs to be said.

Being pro-union and having marxist views I am what you would probably call a lefty. If I was a woman I think I would also be a feminist.
I liked Dave Chapelle's special. The bits that were critical of identity politics were super valid. Just because you are rich, white and have the world's best job does not mean you could also be unhappy enough to kill yourself. He suggested that lgbtq is not a natural group, but an alliance forged despite lots of differences. He expressed his uneasyness with trans rights groups from the stand point of a black man (like he has done in a few other bits). In a pretty funny bit he compared the black crack epidemic to the mostly white heroin epidemic. He uses identity politics himself, while in other bits severly criticizing them. Because: Fuck! life is complicated and emotions seldomly fit exactly into one world view.
You should be happy stand-up is still a place where ambivalence can be expressed!

Thanks for your honesty.

I'm pathetic why? I like to see two sides of the coin. I'm open to things and if someone says something of value I'm willing to recognize it.

I dug it, older Dave is a lil different,but the man can still make me laugh
-
I read that Vice article saying skip it because it was offensive and old, so I hopped on Netflix instantly and watched it. I thought it was really funny and I am pretty fucking liberal. People need to calm down about what people say and get a sense of humor. Unless people can start laughing at themselves we're all screwed.

100% agree

This is one of those occasions where one person gets very upset, the media creates a pernicious false narrative, and then everyone has to take it upon themselves to discover that the general population is not actually like that.
-
sticks and stones was hilarious. easily his best work since the chappelle show.

100% agree
Vice? Isn't that the company that released a whole documentary on underaged boys fucking donkeys?

This is the kind of feedback I was looking for . Some insight not just hurling insults and making assumptions about each other.

I enjoyed it and it made me laugh. I can understand why it wouldn't be funny to some LGBT people and some activists. But Dave wasn't promoting hate in anyway towards the group. He was just making jokes like he does about every group of people. No one is exempt. I definitely found the bit about drug differences between black and white people to be very funny.
People getting super offended are nothing new. It's been happening in comedy forever. Unfortunately, they wont learn that you aren't being forced to watch or attend the comedy show. You can leave at any time.
-
I wish he would retire his not that great or funny takes on LGBQT (seems like he has heard this but is doubling down to prove some point), but overall this shit is hilarious.
Second half was better.
All black people need to buy guns so we get gun control, and “I don’t care either” about opioid vs crack epidemic killed me and is real shit
All 3 of his Netflix specials have been good. Dave the GOAT. Lol at 25% critics rating and 100% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes
-
Don’t miss the Q&A and some bonus bits (in trailers & more on Netflix).
But yea also in his next special Dave is probably gonna have to tell some of these right wingers who are weirdly excited about this to chill.
-
super funny. The Micheal Jackson stuff was super funny, calling out #meto, ect... the left would be well served by lightening up a little. Being so up tight got us trump.

But isn't this:

assuming left wingers will be offended by it?

I mostly agree with you and S. points. I feel like there is a time and place for everything. Comedy is a form of entertainment and you can't take yourself so serious all the time and have to let loose here and there. While his humor is offensive it's important to realize what you're getting into. Kinda like going to watch a Fast and the Furious film, the plot and reasoning and writing will be subpar as cars that go vroom very fast are the highlight.

I have a pod cast where we talk a lot about boomer memes aka "I identify as a helicopter" and shit like that so I'm neck deep in that shit all the time. That is all I could think of while watching this. It was lazy. I'm all for being "edgy" if its smart but this material was hack. These jokes could have been written by any Tucker Carlson disciple on facebook. Chapppelle Show aired 16 years ago and was groundbreaking its sad that he never really evolved its almost like he did the opposite.
-
making an offensive joke that's actually funny is an art form. most of the people ranting about PC culture are not funny and just like being offensive for the sale of being offensive, which is fine. but don't expect people to laugh or take it lightly.

I think the idea PC culture and everyone having to watch their tongue is hypocritical and ridiculous. Now mind you words do have weight but in the company you keep is where that type of offensiveness should stay.
I too get comfortable with friends and shit, some would raise their eyebrows like wtf?! but in the words of J-Rock it is what it is know what I'm sayin? That's how I am sometimes when I get uppity about certain topics and situations I raise my voice as I can feel my blood boil.
People are entitled to say whatever the fuck they want, however there are dire consequences when choosing those words. Like they say choose your next word wisely because it could be your last, I agree implicitly with that sentiment entirely.

Loved it. I thought he balanced the message with humor a lot better than his previous 2 hours.
I do find it strange that he made it that far with the shotgun bit not knowing the differences between bird shot, buck shot, and slugs. Or maybe he does, and thought it worked better wrong?
-
I laughed because this shit was supposed to be funny not because it was supposed to be offensive. The only thing Chappelle can't get away with saying is shit that ain't funny in a not funny way.
-
shane gillis looks like an adult trapped in a fat kid's body.
-
Loved how he talked about the opioid epidemic, "I dont feel bad for you, remember just say no"
-
the “im not a nigger either” bit .. that’s a brilliant joke
-
It’s comedy, if you didn’t laugh that doesn’t mean it wasn’t funny it just means you didn’t get the joke.
I loved it and watched it twice.
