Dave will be fine. Netflix will be fine.
I wish their was more uproar over other stuff that's on Netflix that is way more offensive, in my opinion.

By your post you justify that racism is ok because people should just accept people should be free to have ideas. I agree, they can have those ideas but they aren’t free from the consequences of having shitty ideas. Yes I believe people can change. As for his views, he straight up said he was a trans exclusionary radical feminist. He said it multiple times in the special. Go look at what that means. He is AGAINST leg…
> He is AGAINST legislation for trans rights. Anybody who is FOR legislation of "rights" predicated on a non-falsifiable self-proclamation is almost certainly an idiot. I don't dispute that gender dysphoria is real, it most certainly is. I don't dispute that living this way in a world that doesn't acknowledge who you are is a real bummer.

For those who haven't seen the special, the core of the controversy appears to be Chappelle mourning his friend, Daphne Dorman.

If wokeism wasn't around, they'd find something else to oppress people. Ironically, these people would've been _great_ racists in a different time. The problem is bullying. I don't know why it's so hard for people to recognize when they agree with the bully, but these…
Being "woke" is black freedom fighter slang that described an understanding of the case for reparations and police reform. It is being bastardized by people with an agenda in the dominant white society with the help of the media to undermine and/or distract from that movement. Understand that by misusing that slang, you are also assisting them in doing the same. People that understand the actual definition correctly…
