Few things come to mind. He's biracial, not American, has an accent, his humor is intelligent, he speaks truth through that same intelligent humor so it's not the brass and direct confrontational most on here prefer, etc.. The last point is why I think so many caught feelings with his Tomi Lahren segment. Folks wanted him to bass on her, but that's not his style. He still schooled her, but in his own way.

Because he's a non-African American who occasionally speaks about African American issues.
Certain members of this site get prissy when a mirror gets held up to them by non-AAs.

This is where I get confused. Because if he is in America, making money on American TV and American Televisions shows and he's black then you would call him a c00n for NOT speaking on black issues
And he's from South Africa which has just as much racism, if not more, than America. He's the perfect candidate to speak on black America simply for the fact that white people here are trying to set shyt up like South Africa where white ppl are 20% of the population but 90% of the wealth now that they are dying out.

I'll tell you why I dont like him...I did not like his stereotype of African American's during his standup special. And Im also tired of all these Brits and Brits connected people being on Television criticizing America whether its John Oliver with his show, Craig Ferguson, James Cordon, and now Trevor Noahs Britiano-Deutsch South African ass. All these phags can go back across the pond with their silly voices.

Huh!?

He actually lived through parts of apartheid which means he'd win in an argument of Oppression Olympics with most Coli cats and that makes them uncomfortable.
He's got a different, yet still totally valid view of racial politics which makes Coli cats uncomfortable.
He schooled Tomi like a Journalist and not like a comedian and that made them furious.
Lastly, black folks hate being told about themselves by someone they consider an outsider....more so than any other group I've ever witnessed.
Also black americans hate accents just as much as white ones.
Yea, I can't find it but it was something like "they're always trying to connect with Africa which is funny because they aren't African"He said that?
And I remember how hard the audience applauded. Decided he wasn't for me after that
edit: I'm not sure where this is from but he and this sista were discussing it
