Dave Chappelle gets treated like some comedic genius and some social commentary savant but his show didn't really do anything but play on racial stereotypes and if you take out the gay, trans, and poor white people jokes in his stand ups you end up with one joke about OJ and 2 and a half hours of silence. He did a 20 minute set about how he wasn't being paid for networks showing episodes of Chappelle show and somehow people treated this as some egregious thing instead of something that happens to virtually every person that every signed a contract and worked on any television show.
The irony about Chappelle with me is he's the same guy who said "where's ja?" But now he stands on his soap box.

True Detective S2 is a pretty good show. It would seen way differently if it wasn't compared to S1 and was a mini-series on its own.
True Detective season 1 was overrated so Season 2 being underrated balances the universe out

Don't get me started on Dave Chappelle...

If I said "do you think dave chappelle is a c00n" people would emphatically answer NO

But if I said is a black man who....

Is married to a woman who isn't black...

Made a show stereotyping black people and making fun of black celebrities...

Literally opened his mouth to say "let's give donald trump a chance"

Is close friends with Kanye West, a man who literally said slavery was a choice, and Joe Rogan, a man who does a 3 hours worth of coded white supramacy language and is on camera literally jumping out of his seat yelling YES when Trump won Texas during the election...

Could have lived anywhere in the world and choose to live in fukking Ohio...

People would say...?

Dave became this mythical figure after turning down the 50 million from comedy central, so after that incident he gets a pass for some things other black celebrities would get a side eye

FOH :pacspit: this was a great episode.

Yall are really downing The Fresh Prince? :mindblown:
This nikkas father was a judge, his mother a college professor and he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. How the fukk is he jumping the same hurdles as normal black people? :dead:

Phil and Vivian were black activists and their first born might as well be a blonde white woman :dead::dead:

"Why do we keep doing this to ourselves?" Why did you shield your children from their own people then be surprised when said people can't relate to them years later? :dead::dead::dead:


This scene was so full of shyt and its usually doled out by nikkas just as corny if not worse than Carlton.


:coffee:

Ya'll mad at OG Bobby Johnson but Will said the same shyt to Carlton on a daily basis.

"b-b-b-but they family :damn:" nikka, go head on :camby:
