Dave continues to poison his legacy. If he keeps doing stuff like this and writing jokes that he knows will age poorly, in 10 years he will become a footnote instead of someone people remember fondly and still listen to

poison his legacy according to whom?

Then you clearly didn't watch it, stop fabricating stories and grow up.

Lol, I literally made a topic airing my specific grievances, quoting the exact things I thought were transphobic that Dave said in his latest special.

The topic got deleted because of the offensive jokes that I quoted, so if youre looking for me to go into detail about it its not going to happen because I know that much of the transphobic stuff Dave himself said is moddable to quote here.

Hard to do that when the only part of the story were getting is from people whos feelings got hurt.

Bro, what context is needed for:

Im better than every instrumentalist, artist, no matter what art you do in this school, right now, Im better than all of you. Im sure that will change. Im sure youll be household names soon.


To be seen as not being an asshole who reacted way too hard to high schoolers?

Hes a tenured comedian. He should be having actually funny retorts. Not whatever that is. He legit got his feelings ruffled if that was what he responded with.

I didnt say that.

However, its a sign of an asshole. Keep in mind, according to the article, the audience wasnt even heckling him. It was apparently just 6 students. Dave received an antagonist callout (lame article doesnt say what it was, so it must have been personal), and Dave proceeds to direct his comment to everyone.

Like, Im not claiming his legacy or career will be tarnished. Nothing dramatic.

But anyone pulling the Im famous and successful. You never will be, will come off as an asshole. Its lame that he decided to say that instead of anything else. The article said he joked most of the time, so whatever the kid said really got to him.

Its not that at all, its the reverse if anything. It reminds me of those influencers who flip out and cry at bouncers when they wont let them in the club and just completely embarrass themselves saying how theyre so much better than the bouncer.

This basically just gives credence to those who doubt people who say "You're too sensitive and thin-skinned".

Those kinds of people can't accept that they themselves are thin-skinned. Chappelle really has a hard time figuring that some people don't like his comedy. Instead of just letting it be water under the bridge, he always has to lash out in a way that people can't truly criticize him.

Criticizing high school kids by saying he's better than them. Well, you been in the game longer than they've been alive, so of course you're going yo have more money and status than a high school kid, Chappelle.

I think there are certain posters who being too adamant about defending Dave.

Just like how there are certain posters who are trying to shit on Dave no matter what happens. He can do nothing right and no matter what he does, people will shit on him.

Like here; kids being kids in trying to antagonize someone and while I dont agree exactly with how Dave clapped back, you people are acting as if Dave said fuck them kids, youre all worthless and will never amount to shit.

Wow, a famous person told kids hes better than them currently at something. Thats basically worse than what Hitler ever did! Least thats what you guys are trying to make it sound like.

No...he told them he's better than them no matter what they're doing, and said they'd never be successful on or near his level. The entire assembly. Because one person got under his skin.

Let's not forget that the entire PURPOSE of his meeting with his high school students was to have a dialogue about his anti-trans comments, and then when people start asking him about it, and commenting, and telling him what they THOUGHT, he starts to "clap back," shuts them down, and gets angry.

Culminating in a messiah-like speech about how much better he is than they are?

What a fucking snowflake. Get over yourself Chappelle. Not everyone has to like you.

He also said something in response to "Your comedy kills!" to "****** die every day!" as if that makes it right?

And also erasing black trans-individuals.

Does Chapelles comedy, or really any comedians, actually kill directly or indirectly?

I've been hearing that stated more frequently lately, even here on CE. But its always said like a fact, just with no concrete evidence. It reminds me of good ol John Jack Thompsons crusade against video games because allegedly they cause school shootings.

Can you not see the difference between "stop being a bigot" and "ban all video games"?

How are those not categorically different in every possible way.

Chappelle's comedy contributes to trans-violence in the same way that anti-vaxx lies contribute to a public health crisis.

No, definitely sure Kastrada wasn't confused. You're just being annoyingly weird about their post for some internet points. Everyone else understood them but you. You can kindly stfu now.

What internet points? You can read his topic, he immediately points out how he's a teacher and how that's now how you teach students.

Did you read? Can you read? Or are you just defending the guy because he's on your side? Lol.

Ive been on other shit?

Youre defending bullshit kids will be kids while crying like Dave Chappelle said trans people arent people because he told kids Im better than you.

Quit your fucking crocodile tear bullshit. Kids were assholes, Dave clapped back like any comedian would, and now people are butthurt because of who said it.

Your favorite woke comedian could have said the same thing and you guys wouldnt be bitching.

Im not the one on some shit, you fucks with your paper tissue feelings are the ones on some shit.
