” Dec. 12]: Chappelle is a genius, and I considered myself a fan. But his “Saturday Night Live” monologue went much further than just going “too easy on Kanye West’s antisemitic comments” as Kelley describes. He got huge laughs on broadcast television by pushing antisemitic tropes such as Jews secretly controlling industries and Jews blaming Black people for their suffering.
When Dave Chappelle performs homophobic, transphobic and antisemitic material or jokes that “punched the LGBTQ community right in the AIDS,” his star-power insulates him from real cancellation and real consequences. What a joke for Chappelle to claim that he’s been “silenced” or “canceled” by the mostly powerless people for whom his bigotry is dangerous and dehumanizing. This is all about grandiose ego, not art.I admit that I am a huge Dave Chappelle fan. I was also a fan of Don Rickles. I love hearing comedians during their stand-up ask questions about controversial topics and find the “ funny” side of an issue.
