Netflix has released comedian Dave Chappelle's latest stand-up special. Throughout his nearly hour-long set, Chappelle demonstrates that he may be the most fearless celebrity in America. At one point or another, every viewer will be offended. At most points, though, viewers will not only laugh but marvel at the comedian's ability to skewer what he calls the "cancel culture" while making a mockery of political correctness. With his latest special, Chappelle proves that he is the PC culture's worst nightmare.

I enjoyed his show, don’t agree with all of his views, but oh well. I was entertained and that is the point of comedy, push boundaries and have FUN!
I nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize!
Hope this CNN racist clip makes the show

Early on, Chris Rock told it like it was...
but then he sold out, or got scared, or something.
Now he’s just a dud.
Thanks. I’ll look for it.

Agreed. Watched the show and he does actual comedy. Panders to nobody and is willing to tell his jokes.
“I won’t spoil the joke by repeating it here”
Waste of an article if he doesn’t tell us what he’s talking about.
This dude is one of the greatest comedians ever to walk the face of the earth.
Guess you will just have to wait until it hits youtube...
but at least you now know it’s worth a look.
However, it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if youtube starts banning the clips.
I love Dave Chapelle.
I love race humor. Not racist humor, but rather race humor.
We’ve lost the ability to laugh at ourselves, and we take ourselves far too seriously now. Nothing is funny, everything is an offense.
I miss Chapelle’s Show. I’ve seen every episode of it.
Richard Pryor was the King.
If he lends his hand to #WalkAway, RATS are freakin’ burnt toast.
People love racist humor. After all, when Archie said his line about watermelon seeds flying out the window, they weren’t laughing at “OMG, I don’t find that funny at all, but I’m laughing because I can’t believe he would say that!” They were laughing at the joke. The targets of his racism were also laughing. Because we used to be able to do that.
Make no mistake - Chappelle despises Trump (he’s said so) and he voted for Hillary Clinton (he’s said so). But the stifling political correctness of 2019 is getting to be too much even for liberal comedians like Chappelle and Jerry Seinfeld. Even Sarah Silverman now knows what it’s like to be singled out and ostracized by the PC thought police.
Nice...
but Chris Rock almost stunk it up.
FREEDOM!
No, not in any sense. Have you seen them all to make such a statement? I am being kind.
