'Penalizing somebody for having a thought, I don’t think is the way to change their minds or gain understanding,' the former 'Daily Show' host said of Kyrie Irving being suspended from the Brooklyn Nets after promoting an anti-Jewish film on Twitter.
Stewart rejected the idea that Chappelle “normalized antisemitism,” and said: “I don’t know if you’ve been on comments sections on most news articles, but it’s pretty fucking normal … I don’t believe that censorship and penalties are the way to end antisemitism or to not gain understanding. I don’t believe in that. I think it’s the wrong way to approach it.”
Colbert pushed back a bit, suggesting that while people may have a right to say what they want, such as comics, viewers also have a right to react and view their material however they see fit. Stewart explained wounds such as racial divides and antisemitism need to be exposed and the “general tenor of conversation in this country is to cover it up. Look at it from a Black perspective. It’s a culture that feels its wealth has been extracted by different groups – whites, Jews. Whether it’s true or not isn’t the issue, that’s the feeling in that community.
