[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He gets heat for joining a comedy festival in Saudi Arabia (which I agree is gross), but he's right - Saudi killed 1 journalist, and Israel's killed over 250 journalists.

And this mic drop at the end? Bold.

I think folks forget that Dave converted to Islam a while ago. He’s going to have some strong views on Israel. He probably also got a personal tour of Mecca while performing there.

While I do think he’s a dick for punching down, it’s not shocking that a Muslim guy might have conservative views on things.[/quote]

Oh please. It's more generational than anything else. With that said, I don't think he's transphobic at all. He's also not anti-semitic.[/quote]

Agree. Chapelle is Gen X. Not locked into Boomer habits and sensibilities. But he doesn't identify with the identity politics of Millennials and Gen Z either. For Gen X, there's nothing special about being trans or being Israeli. An a$$hole is still an a$$hole. And Chapelle wanders that space like a Gen X person does. His commentary is very generational. Boomers and Gen Z won't go anywhere near the topics Chapelle deals with. It's not a surprise that a lot of old people and young people don't click with Chapelle today. He is very generational. Good for him though for sticking to his Gen X sense of the absurd.   [/quote]
