Dave Chappelle Bashes SNL: ‘No One Is Woke Enough’
New York Post ^ | May 9, 2021 | Mark Lungariello

Comedians Dave Chappelle and Joe Rogan speculated that woke culture sparked the early backlash to Elon Musk’s hosting gig on “SNL.”

Chappelle sat for over three hours in an episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast posted Friday, with Musk’s debut in sketch comedy being among the many topics discussed.

Rogan speculated that people felt Musk was problematic because of his comments downplaying the COVID-19 pandemic and his vast wealth. “No one is woke enough,” Rogan said.

And Musk knows how to disign space vehicles that harken back and reintroduce the Buck Rogers style and flair. Which is sort of bizarre to me.

SNL, has lousy TV viewer ratings, so does CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, the Democrat Party, Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer, etc.!!! Shucks Biden & Harris get very few attendees at any of their rallies or speeches. Sometimes the two empty suit, losers and illegal POTUS & VP get no one attending in person!!! Sad days for the once great USA Nation Republic. Go figure...folks!!!

I truly can’t stand Joe Rogan. Every time he’s said something semi-conservative he wrecks it by doubling down on some stupid liberal crap.

I had high hopes for him and thought he was coming around a few times in the past. But he always circles back to the vomit. I’ve given up on him and will never give him the time of day anymore.

The interview was recorded before Musk’s appearance on SNL as one of the rare hosts who isn’t an actor or athlete.

There's no stupider groups (with money and/or fame) than actors and athletes...

What is this? Are you implying that somehow the 2020 election was not on the up-and-up? But we have been told that it was the most honest election in history. I am baffled.

First, watch his comments on Jussie Smollett.

Second, an item from the old Chappelle Show.

Chappell isn’t a conservative, but he’s not a woke idiot either.

Musk is also isolated because, through all his occasional weirdness, he believes in America and carries a vision of its renewed greatness. Last year, as COVID spiked and BLM/ANTIFA were burning our cities, Musk’s Space-X craft lifted off, giving Americans a brief respite from the tumult of 2020.

What Elon said about covid is absolutely true.

Something extremely bogus is going on. Was tested for covid four times today. Two tests came back negative, two came back positive. Same machine, same test, same nurse. Rapid antigen test from BD.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 13, 2020

“I truly can’t stand Joe Rogan...”

He seems to have nothing intelligent to say; no reason to be talking. Yet he talks. And talks.

I’d rather watch Jordan Peterson, a truly intelligent man who has his head on straight.

“The interview was recorded before Musk’s appearance on SNL as one of the rare hosts who isn’t an actor or athlete.”

I saw some of Musk’s stuff on SNL this past weekend. Surprisingly enough, he was better than most of the actors who have been on that show.

I love the Dogecoin skit on Weekend News. That was pretty funny.
