Superstar funnyman Dave Chappelle announced his response to the controversy surrounding his new comedy special ‘The Closer,’ in particular to the calls from liberal activists for the special to be canceled over Chappelle’s jokes about transgender people.
As The Daily Wire reports:
And Chappelle declared he won’t be “bending to anybody’s demands.”
“To the transgender community, I am more than willing to give you an audience, but you will not summon me. I am not bending to anyone’s demands,” Chappelle said in the clip.
“It’s been said in the press that I was invited to speak to the transgender employees of Netflix and I refused. That is not true — if they had invited me I would have accepted it, although I am confused about what we would be speaking about,” Chappelle said. “I said what I said, and boy, I heard what you said. My God, how could I not? You said you want a safe working environment at Netflix. It seems like I’m the only one that can’t go to the office anymore.”
“And if you want to meet with me, I am more than willing to, but I have some conditions,” he said, drawing laughter. “First of all, you cannot come if you have not watched my special from beginning to end. You must come to a place of my choosing at a time of my choosing, and thirdly, you must admit that Hannah Gadsby is not funny,” he said.
Chappelle has now also claimed that his documentary detailing his summer tour has been essentially banned from film festivals due to woke outrage.
Give him is own show IE Comedy Central etc
Good for you Chappelle.
I agree with you Mr. Chapelle, so far the only problem with these people are the ones that say I was born a boy, but when in the girls bathroom they changed back to a boy trying to rape the girl. As far as a girl that wants to be a boy, haven’t heard of them going into business bathrooms or locker rooms. Tough crap if they don’t want to hear your jokes, hell you talk about all colors and gays, girls and guys. Keep up making us laugh 😃.
I don’t think Dave is any more outrageous than many other comedians that have caused me to laugh. It seems to me these deviants are way too sensitive!!
He is better that those late night hacks kimmil and colburn !!!
Honesty hurts a lot of peoples feelings. Everyone says follow the science. Science says there are two genders. I have never cared what people do or say and how they act, but they have no right to tell me anything about my beliefs or actions.
GO CHAPPELLE!!
You are an excellent counterpoint to the whining, neurotic pathological “left”!
(Which is simply a part of the Classical Marxist movement attempting to destroy a free and open culture via “False Guilt”).
Stand strong Dave, do not cave to PC BS!
I am an old nobody, but I say that we watched Netflix’s Dave Chappel and his Closure. I truly enjoyed it!
Whatever was said about those poor poor people who are DEMANDING that we who are “normal”, bow down and worship them and their horrid ways.
I saw Dave Chappell’s Closure, and it made me laff!! I’m gonna watch it again and again and again and again…….see?
What a refreshing and novel idea, a comedian who is actually funny!
If people are going to act like freaks, then they should expect to be treated like freaks.
Good for him. He has every right to his opinion, just as they have. The Left demands a level of tolerance they never afford anyone else.
It is so refreshing to see a Hollywood insider not giving in to this transgender insanity. It seems that what sensible American know to be true, is always bashed now by demented dems in Hollywood. Thank you Chappelle.
Dave Chappelle is a great intellect and a great comedic genius.
I like his stance and his good commentary.
How does it feel dave, to not have an opinion? Conservatives have been treated this way for a long time. This is America damit! Everyone should entitled to their opinion without having their lives destroyed!
people who defy Gods creation and try to alter nature, must mind their own sick Business , but dont ry and force Gods people to bow to your rebellion against nature. I feel sorry for people born with teh opposite genes, but dont and try and force your behaviour on God fearing people who honour God. God doesnt need opinions, God needs obedience
Thank you Dave Chapelle! I think you have more fans than people who are targeting you right now! I know I am a HUGE Dave Chappelle fan!
Trans gender people are their own enemy. As I recall there are more transgender people that actuallynhave more mental problems and health issues including hurting themselves. There are issues they have to deal with and most are within themselves? Sad
We need more like Dave, Don’t bow down to anyone.
