Even if that was true, it's not, he'd still be a NIMBY piece of shit.

This fucking quote
Everything seems absolute, and any opinion I respect is way more nuanced than these binary choices they keep putting in front of us. I don’t see the world in red or blue.”
He just doesn't get it
“I guess apparently they had made a pledge to the public at large that they would make their club a safe space for all people, and that they would ban anything they deemed transphobic,” Chappelle reacted on his “The Midnight Miracle” podcast at the time. “This is a wild stance for an artistic venue to take, especially one that’s historically a punk rock venue.”
This guy doesn't understand any subculture, does he? The punks are, historically, very anti-fascist, and the ones I know are also some of the strongest queer allies I've ever met. And this guy is surprised that they didn't want his bigotry masquerading as humour.
The punks were extremely LGBTQ+ acceptant, even as far back as the 60s and 70s
That’s part of what made them so fucking hot… all that leather? Are you kidding me?
And it’s not like you can’t make jokes involving trans people, just don’t make jokes at the expense of trans people.
Humour doesn't punch down. That's just bullying.
I feel like this punching model is like Newtonian physics. We do have relativity now, but you gotta take a higher-level class for that one.
After not having a great time towards the end of highschool, I ended up spending most of my free time.between classes, in classes, and lunch, etc with the punk kids and the potheads. And they were some of the nicest and coolest fucking kids I've ever met. Super glad I had that experience because it definitely broke that propaganda fueled view I had of those two groups, for when i entered adulthood.
Has he seen his own comedy specials?
Let me guess he doesn't like Republicans because of their racism against himself specifically but he's totally down to hating other minorities all the same.
Newsflash: Queer rights are human rights, smart ass! We're in this together. Well, not you. You can eat shit, Dave.
Ironically, Dave's entire argument has always been an idpol one. You can't criticize him, because as a Black man (even a millionaire) he's more oppressed than any other group.
And, like always, idpol over intersectionality is used to maintain the existing hierarchy. Guess what Dave, the leopards did eat your face.
He stopped making money on the trans-bashing & now has to backpedal for a better paycheck.
That is absolutely what you were doing, you bigoted fuck bag. Don’t blame Republicans for laughing at your horribly bigoted jokes.
You engineered them specifically so that your bigoted fans would laugh at them, you piece of shit. Then you played the race card to try to get out of it, and it didn’t work because your bigoted piece of shit fans didn’t like Black people either.
And since those are your only fans left, you are left with nothing, and that’s all you deserved. Nothing.
That's not what he thought he was doing, but it's absolutely what he was doing.
Too late. And to me, that was exactly what you were doing.
His set list of punching down on trans people ain't hitting like it used to and it's affecting his money.
Hey Dave, what did the five fingers say to the face?
"Unityyyyy!!!"
Man who manufactures guns resents people who used them to shoot other people...
Dave chapelle has always been technically brilliant.
Bravo, sir. Bravo.
