    Woah. Didn't hear about that. I (nearly literally) live under a rock with some isopods, though, so that might explain why. Turns out two things can be true: you can be a giant piece of shit, and still have the occasional good take, I guess.

    Dave Chappelle was lying about growing up in a sketchy neighborhood because it was good for his image.

    Dave did grow up in a sketchy neighborhood. Have you seen Yellow Springs? You can't throw a rock without hitting an artist. Those hippies are always sketching something

    Really good weed there too

    Do artists only live in sketchy neighborhoods? Or am I missing some sarcasm or something

    Sarcasm. Actually, a pun.

    Artists.

    Sketchy.

    Sketching.

    Like, you know, a quick drawing.

    I'll^see^myself^out

    eta: and Yellow Springs, Ohio is a quiet little liberal town in the middle of deep red Trump cuntry, and is about as dangerous as Bergen when the sun is out

    I wouldn't even call it the middle of deep red country. It's a day trip from Columbus (blue), Dayton (light blue), and kinda a schlep but doable from Cincinnati (blue). Its immediate surroundings are deep red except Springfield. But it's in the path of the 3 Cs

    It's also where the republican party was formed, but that's because ohio really fucking hated slavery at the time.

    It is kinda dangerous if you try to start shit at peaches. But yeah the danger is a single biker bar and the occasional fascist looking to start shit. Oh and quite a bit of drugs, but hippie drugs not the meth and heroin problem neighboring towns have.

    Yeah the guy is a huge piece of shit, so let's not try to rewrite history by spreading nice little stories made to make him look good.

    Why are people allergic to the idea that bad people can say good and correct things too

    Hitler loved to play with kittens! He carried them around in his shirt pockets to keep them cozy and warm.

    Hitler loved dogs. Now think about how Trump is the only US president to have no pets, and dislike animals. Trump has less empathy — is more sociopathic — than Hitler.

    Hitler also didn't rape kids.

    Everyone says good stuff once in a while, so why focus on the pieces of shit exactly?

    What if it's just a good joke from early in his career which resonates with people, and reposting some of his better work doesn't actually mean you're writing history

  • Is this the same guy who at a show brought out his friend Elon Musk to loud BOOs, then snap that the BOOs were only coming from the cheap seats, ie "poor" people? The sooner Chapelle is forgotten the better for humanity. Every anecdote he tells about his past is a complete fabrication. One year he tells his parents died when he was young, the next year he will tell you about the lavish vacation he can afford to send them on. And when he gets called out on his bullshit he cowardly runs away to africa to let his PR people spin it as a sympathetic moment.

    Preemptively dissing disagreements is so fucking stupid. But I guess it drives engagement? Anyways, fuck Dave Chapelle.

    Oh look, a piece of shit needed to relate a commonly understood concept to money just to understand it.

    To be fair, he's not saying that's how he learned to understand it. He's using it as a way to help other people understand it. And the type of people who need the help probably understand the analogy.

    The important part is how people are definitely not reactionary nowadays, Our intellect has grown, we are evolving! We can tell, because we are always correct now, and always on moral high ground. Obviously. Anyone who would even question that is ignorant. We know this so deeply it evokes rage when anyone is ignorant enough to question what we know. It is obvious we were inherently on the correct side, because we actually took the time to figure it out and they just go with the stupid things they feel or have naively just accepted without questions. This is why they all need to shut up, and they all need to go. I mean, if they would just listen for a second or do some research like we did but no, their refusal to do so just proves their ignorance. I don't want to say we're superior, but you know, we just know more because we put in more work.
