"You Can Definitely Skip Dave Chappelle's New Netflix Special 'Sticks & Stones'
The comedian doubles down on misogyny and transphobia in both the special and the hidden bonus scene that follows."

just watched it , was funny as fuck

lol at people being sensitive over some jokes, soft ass liberals

Libs are so confused.

Hating Dave will make them racist.

Supporting Dave will make them homophobic.

Just as people can choose their own genders. Now they're pissed that men who call themselves women are kicking biological women's asses, in women's sports.

it's a true sick lib world 😅

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15113) 5 years ago

It would make more sense if they just had competitions for trans people. Then they could try and outdo each other in sports and leave everyone else alone.

They don't operate with "sense".

That reminds me of the opthamologist/pro tennis player Richard Raskind who became Renee Richards over thirty years ago.

As Richard, he was only a fair player. But as Renee he kicked butt by playing against women. She sued the Women's Tennis Association to be able to play as a woman.

Years later she rethought her position.

"I know if I'd had surgery at the age of 22 and then at 24 went on the tour, no genetic woman in the world would have been able to come close to me. And so I've reconsidered my opinion."

No gender "reassignment surgery" can change the fact that a man has a whole lot more upper body strength than a woman even if she is now wearing a dress and make-up.

We live in a very sick society that values feelings and political correctness over all else. Especially morality, logic and reason. Dave's routine wasn't about hating on "alphabet people" or anyone else. It's hating on political correctness. Which is weapon the lunatic left uses to divide, stereotype, alienate, ridicule and ostracize people that don't agree with them. They are 100% guilty of everything they accuse others of but are too dumb to realize it. They are the true tyrants and fascists.

True, he wasn’t hating at all. I liked the show and especially that part. I will watch it again now.

"They are 100% guilty of everything they accuse others of but are too dumb to realize it. They are the true tyrants and fascists"

Exactly !
And their foot soldiers ANTIFA = Sturmabteilung

of course just 10 times more cowardly, and masked as well

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15113) 5 years ago

Oh really? Rushes to turn on Dave Chappelle on Netflix

[–] AP (5295) 5 years ago

Dave has always been edgy. People shouldn't be surprised if he pushed buttons.

[–] tom8 (3119) 5 years ago

No, but these aren't people...... they are left wing turds.
offended by the truth

[–] AP (5295) 5 years ago

I mostly lean left. I just know a joke when I hear it.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

100% AP. I find Dave's unfiltered take on the world as funny as I do Alec Baldwin ripping on Trump.

The review that the OP shared misses the mark and ignores the large number of people from the "marginalized groups" it mentions who actually have the ability to laugh at themselves.

This is not "The Left" talking, it's one disgruntled reviewer. Get some perspective.

[–] ultravioletx (10237) 5 years ago

It's mostly getting criticized because it wasn't funny compared to his Chappelle Show.

As for his standup, here's his best joke:

To each their own. I'm not mad at him, but his show was mediocre, in my book. If that makes me [insert political-based slur here], I guess that's that.

[–] Filmtenk2 (4137) 5 years ago

Leftist here. I'm halfway through the Netflix special and I'm dying. See it's not so black and white.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Yeah I suppose I would call myself left-leaning in terms of political persuasion, and as a member of the 'Alphabet People' I thought the set was hilarious.

Sometimes people like to make divisions where no divisions exist.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

No he doesn't, he has upset a few uptight reviewers. I know for a fact that many in the left think he's funny. Damn funny. Almost as funny as these crap threads trying to push some bullshit agenda that the left are all militant lunatics with a sense of humour bypass.

I love Dave and supporting him doesn't make me homophobic, because he's not a homophobe.

Time to break out of your left vs right bubble, it's so boring.

you like jimmy kimmel and the rest of late night?

“you like jimmy kimmel and the rest of late night?”

I don’t watch talk shows.

[–] Nate Adams SA23 (902) 5 years ago

Agreed. We so quick to divide each other up in groups
