Maybe to say it better, she does nothing for me.

Yea that standup wasn't memorable. The only ones I liked were Deon Cole, Chapelle of course and some of the comics on Netflix is a joke with the principal from Abbott elementary.

Agreed, Netflix’s batting average with specials is low…but I think they know that themselves. It’s been more of an ownership of the market thing, and now the festival is taking it to a different level.

Ms Pat gives me minstrel show vibes. She has a big white audience, but I can’t help but feel they are laughing at her instead of with her.

I don't get those vibes because Chapelle and hart has a large white audience and cacs gonna cac. Comedy is authenticity.

I didn’t realize how traumatic her story was. I watched the whole thing last night, and while she is funny, I wasn’t really laughing…it was uncomfortable, but it was real. And people have the right to share their story if they choose.

But I definitely think white people get off on listening to entertainers with these stories because they like to think that is the “authentic Black experience”. It’s a form of voyeurism. “This is how life really is for all of them. OMG I can’t imagine experiencing that.” Etc.

I see that shyt in my damn office! Because I’m a more reserved Black woman white ppl don’t reeeeeally know how to connect with me, but they LOVE the Black folks who may come from a more challenging background and openly talk about certain struggles. They seem more “real” to them because they are comfortable with the idea of Black folks who are or have struggled.

Yea, but Chapelle isn’t talking about getting knocked up by a married grown man at 13, being asked to abort the child by his wife, raising “3 sets of crack babies”, etc.

Quite a few White people are definitely laughing AT her story, not with her or the Black people who may understand some of her struggles.

I don't think he was talking about her audience being majority white, but she's essentially made a name for herself by telling her story over and over and over again to mostly white audiences (comedy shows, podcasts etc., almost exclusively white ones), and her story is filled with what could be considered stereotypes.

Getting pregnant at like 13 by an older man several times, selling drugs and hiding it in the kids diapers, shooting and getting shot etc., living on welfare blah blah blah.

I don't even know Ms. Pat that well, but I've heard this shyt like 5 times minimum, and the more you hear it the more it gets, and it only gets worse when you keep seeing her tell it in places where she's the only other black person in the room.

It's her story, so she has the right to tell it, but I get what homie was saying. It's uncomfortable and you can't tell if she's being laughed with or laughed at sometimes.

Big facts. It can be a bit cringe.
