 November 13, 2022 Here is the thing, Dave Chapelle wants to joke about antisemitism but he isn’t living with the consequences of it. Antisemitic incidences are at a historic high in America, but that doesn’t get mentioned. Probably cause it’s not actually funny. It’s scary as hell— Carly Pildis (@CarlyPildis) November){kind=link}
NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Dave Chappelle has been accused of ‘perpetuating antisemitism’ following his controversial Saturday Night Live monologue.
The stand-up comic, 49, recently appeared on the American TV show and kicked off the programme by addressing the criticism surrounding Kanye West’s anti-semitic comments.
‘Before I start, I just want to read a brief statement that I prepared,’ Chappelle began, taking a piece of paper out of his pocket.
‘I denounce anti-Semitism in all its forms and I stand with my friends in the Jewish community – and that, Kanye, is how you buy yourself some time,’ he said.
