This made me say Eyyyyy out loud

Ouch

Eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

This actually got a lil snort outta me, unlike most of their jokes

Permission to use this?😂❤

This this this this!

They don't even know what they mean by "woke" anyway. It's just a buzzword that makes them angry, just like other buzzwords make them feel good without any thinking process.

I still listen to Redbone by Childish Gambino and think of it as a good thing. I can't help but laugh when people are like "this movie cares too much about being inclusive and sensitive" like... yes ... that's why I prefer it over Nolan's exclusively, intentionally straight white stories lmao

Let's use "Asleep" as an insult

yeah seriously.!

Lol. This is a good illustration of how cheap their material is now. You can hold it up to a mirror and nothing is different.

sort by newest and you can see that happening right here in this very comment section!

​@@Portal2LabRatThe difference is KZfaq isn't paying commenters millions of dollars and then blasting it out to other people when they log onto KZfaq.

Fr. I really don't get why the very side that can't come up with 2 original jokes about trans ppl act the most defensive about comedy. Like, babe, you have no skin on the game.

You also can't say [string of slurs against Black people] or [stereotypes against Black people]. But for some reason Dave is ok with that... hmmmmmm

Steven Crowder walked away from a similar amount because he couldn't be as racist or homophobic etc under the new contract. I don't get why people are getting so evil lmao

His legacy has certainly been tarnished. I thought of him as maybe one of the only comedians with outright and publicly displayed integrity.

That's not why he walked away from 50 million dollars he walked away because of ownership

@@marteza654 He said it out of his own mouth! Gayle King interview, January 2018. Thank you.

Seriously. Dude had some steel in him at one point, now he's... This.

Because people like Ricky and Dave are pandering to certain crowd

Lol so what??? The jokes are still just jokes that people found funny.

It's called an echo chamber & I bet there wasn't a sincere, legitimate chuckle the whole time. A show like that is a virtue signaling fest.

@@mermaidmomma3696 "people" is a bit of a stretch...

They're immersed in an alternate reality narrative to the point where it's like they're constantly playing an AR game together. They don't know, nor do they care, what LGBT+ ppl are saying or doing. _In their world,_ Chapelle is correct, because they're in the game not the real world.

Exactly. Almost anything can make for a funny joke.

@@deaddomain No no, only making fun of minorities for no reason counts as a joke, obviously

Ain't it crazy how people would rather laugh at lighthearted humor than absorb someone's negativity for two hours

​@@khrowvI always imagine what if guys like this or Matt Rife mocked straight white guys more and think "oh I'd actually watch that" but then they don't

Frankie Boyle proving you can be as woke as you want while remaining edgy AF. He didn't even slow down.

That was priceless. Can't even remember where I saw it but it made me feel good, the way comedy should.

so happy to hear someone bring up Frankie Boyle. when I hear people compliment rogan/chapelle/gervais etc for being offensive and therefore real, I think if Boyle who typically can be actually grotesquely foul and cancelable but somehow makes, imo, brilliant humour of hypocrites or pain or the futile shittyness of life in a way that makes me admire what is left of humanity, mine and his. the others just remind me of guys who punch down and hide their passive violence behind the excuse of ‘its just a joke’, well why aren’t I laughing then dave?

Boyle is a wicked, wicked man. But he really gets past my defences.

i am (very much not) gleefully awaiting the further normalization of otherkin because yes, some people may very well ID as chimps and that's valid. comedians and the media and normies are gonna shit on otherkin and therians for decades. CHRIST

that’s what i’m saying. 😩

@@closuitm Again, why is that sad? Every other group in society gets jokes made about them by comedians. Why are men pretending to be women exempt? Do they think they're better than the rest of us, that no one should be able to make fun of them?

Thank you! I appreciate it.

When a Jester becomes the King, should we laugh?

"Has Ricky ever heard of florists!?" Probably not. I doubt he's ever personally bought flowers for anyone, so he wouldn't have a clue about what actually happens in a "flower shop".

I’m agree with you 100% then he acts like he doesn’t know what punching down means. I really have lost all respect for him.

i remember laughing at that first trans joke he did because it had a south park sort of fair play to it. he was then understandably criticized by a FEW people on social media. he could have just understood that not everyone will like all his jokes and moved on, but instead he's now spent 5+ years punching down, being bitter, uncreative, unrelatable and mean

@@metrodonkey8093 Well put.

If you shouldn’t punch down as a comedian then who over than straight white men can you joke about? Everyone else is so called victims of oppression

He also said he referred to Jim as Andy the entire time he was there. So it's not like he can't call people what they ask to be called.

And honestly would have made edgier, funnier comedy if he had that internal consistency, even though most of his crowd would have just been laughing at how many times he said "n*****" in a two-minute time frame.

It has the potential to be a great joke...his hatred ruins it

It’s almost a setup for a whole Chappelle show sketch but it just seems to slip through his fingers

Oh I wish these guys could be banned from comedy until they put together better sets tbh. Both of them COULD turn out all time great specials instead of what they’ve been resorting to.

;)

Honestly the fact that I know they're capable of better shit is the most offensive thing about it 😂

This comment contains more humor than Gervais' entire set. (And Gervais just autocorrected to Garbage on my device) 😂

I went to high school in the early '90s, so we definitely had CRT in schools. They were mounted on top of tall carts, which made them ridiculously top-heavy. One time, the swim coach was showing the swim team a video. He made one wrong move, and the CRT ended up in the pool. He never did live that down. Anyway, I assume that's why people are against CRT in schools. Much less likely to happen with LCD.

Well Netflix employees did try to get him fire.

George Carlin would rip so many comedians apart today. Wish he was still here.

Well put

You bring up a really good point actually

I feel we probably would land somewhere about the same on these specials then.

​​@@deaddomainyep, We're on the same page. I'm disappointed at how Chappelle now just punches down and thinks that's good comedy because he's getting laughs from a certain crowd. He's out of touch, completely. When you're out of touch as a comedian your jokes SHOW it. Gervais has never been my type of comedian. He's always done the "old man yells at cloud" shit. That or making fun of people like Karl Pilkington and calling it comedy. Also they're both just very casually transphobic. Because of course they are.

Gervais has always been so fucking cringe. The guy did a self-important aThEiSt photoshoot and made a whole movie about how if you lie enough times it becomes religion.

@@avalokiteshvara113Chapelle is such a disappointment because if you watch his old show, sure some things didn’t age well, but his shit still hit. Black Bush is still my favorite sketch to this day.

​@@ND-nr6mxand there's a certain truth to that.

The people you are talking about aren’t ‘marginalized’ anymore though. The reason people are joking about them, is because they became these ridiculous online bullies that attack anyone who says anything outside of their rhetoric. Hence, jokes about them are funny, and your politics has clouded your sense of humour.

So trueeeee tho

Bro recycled this joke from a comment an hour older

@@crypt5129 hell, i remember seeing this on a charlie kirk image macro

Matt Rife. Andrew Schultz. Not 50 plus.

George Carlin (not at all MODERN) LITERALLY had a famous bit about the things you're not allowed to say. Rallying against censorship is not a "modern" concept

@@nigelnyoni8265 George Carlin never punched down. As a matter of fact, you can watch many interviews where he says so and explains why it's not good comedy. And NO ONE is censoring Gervais or Chappelle. On the contrary, the have a platform that reaches millions of people.

It’s a depressing joke.

Ironic.

Thank you! I appreciate it ❤️

The whole mocking university thing left a bad taste. Ricky clearly has no understanding of what university teaches. Yes, it teaches the subject, but the whole entire point is teaching people how to learn, building networks and encouraging a lifetime of acquiring knowledge. Subjects like 'Taylor Swift' helps to engage people interested in Taylor, in learning critical thinking skills. Which is the bedrock of university learning, and life.

Thank you, I do appreciate it.

Why is that? Just genuinely curious. Thought they both meant the same thing...

​@juvenilia_in_hell It's the shifting of language trends. Somebody decided one term was offensive or problematic and the other isn't. The rules will change again in a few decades.

​@eemoogee160 Yes, terms change when better terms are found that are more apt, and perhaps sometimes moving away from negative associations and stigma. Terms change with greater understanding. Subtle nuances can make a difference to how something, or someone is perceived and treated, socially and in terms of healthcare and supports. W.H.O. 1980 definitions: Handicap - 'a disadvantage for a given individual that limits or prevents the fulfilment of a role that is normal.' Disability- 'any restriction or lack ...of ability to perform, an activity in the normal manner or within the range considered normal.' The term 'disability' is considered more positive, as a person with a disability can potentially be supported by living aids to be able to do what they otherwise couldn't do. For example, a wheelchair chair and ramps allow access to places an able-bodied person can go. A disability doesn't mean that the person is excluded from doing things that an able-bodied can do. A disabled person can be 'abled' with living aids, systems and supports. 'Handicapped' is a term specifically describing what a person can't do. Personally, I do hope the term disability changes.

​@@juvenilia_in_hell I might be off base but I think handicapped generally makes people think of a visible physical disability, and that expectation can be part of why people with invisible disabilities are often not believed. So swapping to a word with less of that connotation can help remind people the full spectrum of issues that should be considered, even though it won't solve the core issues of how society views disability

🙏🙏🙏 glad to be of service

Same. I could sit through Chapelle but Gervais was too much 😂😂😂.

I'm shocked I ended up sitting through the whole thing. Honestly the only reason I stuck through more than the first two minutes is just because I'm addicted to seeing how bad this trainwreck would get. But also, I was angry at the trainwreck, because I knew he knew exactly what he was trying to say about himself. So I just kept watching the trainwreck, purely out of wanting to see just how pissed off he would make me by crashing the train in such an overt and deliberate way. I've never been this angry at watching a trainwreck

@@aw3299 I feel you. I did it with Chappelle for the first two or three specials. But after I just got off the outrage rails and stopped paying attention. So thankful I had a nice overview video of these specials. I am trans and just can't stomach Chappelle at all anymore. Glad I've given up. This overview was also too much for me.

Those are my thoughts exactly!

Their audience doesn’t want to understand, they want to judge. Just like “comedians” keep claiming there are only 2 genders without understanding the nuance of gender vs sex or that gender is a social construct that exists on a spectrum. Just like pandering about CRT without actually knowing what it means. They don’t care, as long as provides any kind of cover for their preconceived judgements.

It's not even a good exaggeration! There's merit to every superficial job currently. Food influencers try it so people don't waste money, flower arrangers make temporary beauty to make memories, gamers create communities or like the foodies test stuff so we don't have to. If anything, a bad comedian is the worst of the lot since they're just stroking their ego for profit lmao.

Neat point! I would also add that his point on a college course on Taylor Swift is a bit odd; it would not be a degree or major but just a semester or half-semester class. You can have a course on any number of things; I know of courses on a single Beethoven symphony, the philosophy of science-fiction, fatherhood, parables in Jewish and Christian traditions, and "the theology of evil". While these types of courses might sound odd or trivial, they are often fun ways to use a central example to explore a hermeneutic or applying skills & normally have few if any prerequisites. I have been in a number of these types of courses and they are a great way to get credits in for different subjects. Folks on political television shows love pulling these course names as evidence of the "decadence of the ivory tower" or whatever, but they are not actually speaking truth to power; indeed, it is a step on the path to eroding investment into education.

My grandma made her living doing flower arrangements. Literally went to school for it way back in the day. Lol.

"We're getting stupider because we can dedicate a lot of time to identifying the nuances and finer points of very specific crafts" wow Ricky, that certainly is a take to have.

@@kingjoeblack5 Way to read into it way too hard pal. Has nothing to do with racism, the fact of the matter is drug dealing babies don't exist. They're not a thing. Babies that distribute drugs in exchange for money to other people demonstrably do not exist because that would be ridiculous. It's absurdist humor. There is nothing absurdist or satirical about how he talks about trans people today, they're played straightly as how he feels.

The more I learn about politics and social issues, the more leftist I become. It makes one wonder if these older reactionaries stop learning (because they're busy or making too much money) and therefore think any kind of societal progress becomes a bad thing. Especially if they quit visiting several news outlets and settle in with what confirms their biases (Fox News).

Speaking as a legit old person (in my 60s), I’ve become more leftist with age -I’m a full on anarchist, socialist, anti-capitalist sjw and everything else that implies (I’m also queer & nb/trans). I make sure to listen to folks younger than me who have important shit to say about the world my generation and those before me have fucked them over by leaving them the mess (my kids and grandkids help a lot with that!). Yeah, I was a lefty in my youth too, but just a reassurance that it’s not as hard as some folks would like you to believe to get more progressive with age. Bravo to you for where you are now on the path, never stop learning and listen to those who come up after you, you’ll be great!

It comes from a lack of perspective. They are not the ones directly dealing with the problems of today so they don't view those problems as "genuine."

@@literaterose6731 I'm slowly turning into an anarcho-syndicalist, myself!

My parents are in their 80s, and they became even more "woke". They went to see Chapelle's stand up back in the day, watched his show and bought the DVDs and the VHS tape of Killing them Softly. They think he dropped off too. They raised me on "edgy comedy", and the only outrage I experience is hearing the same old jokes I heard in the 80s and being accused of being too sensitive because I don't think it's funny.

He knows; he just doesn't care.

Crazy idea: if you're a woman, don't go to men's prison 🤷🏿‍♂️ Am I phobic for acknowledging biological realities like the tendency for greater aggression that comes with a Y chromosome? If being male = more testosterone = greater aggression, why would a female go to the place we specifically designed to house the MOST AGGRESSIVE people in society? If I die in a lion's den because I identified as a lion despite the warnings that they'd kill me, should you feel sorry for me? No. You should've made sure I didn't go there

Why don't you cry a little more

Ricky Gervais seems to think "I hate everyone equally" is an interesting bit. Most of us outgrew that when we stopped being edgy teenagers.

@@PhoenixFireZero Thing is, there never stops being edgy teens to eat his vapid shit up. No incentive for him to move on other than to be a decent person, which he doesn't seem to have an interest in.

@@PhoenixFireZero I never really liked that "I hate every one equally" the people like that I have met aways said some out of pocket things when they noticed I was Jewish or when they found out I am trans.

Awh thank you. 💕

Calling this ho “comedy” is really fn funny.

A lot of your heroes do despicable things. It's the duality of mankind. If their lives are documented well enough, you'll discover that all of our heroes have skeletons in their closets. But what we admire is their works, not their whole being ... And I'm doubtful Dave hates trans people, part of the point of his repeated trans humour is to rally against this idea that saying anything you don't like = hating you. Not true

I also think they could probably still include trans Jokes but... Maybe different ones? Like how often can you make the same Joke about pronouns? Yh we get it, the Internet is a bit hyperfocused on language. Youve Made your Point. After several years, could we maybe come Up with at least one OTHER trans Joke? 😅

Their egos won’t let them evolve , it’s truly sad

It really does seem like there’s a correlation

This, to make truly good comedy, ppl need to relate to the comedian. Ppl with money generally have a harder time with that.

I'm not defending these guys by any means, but it seems true that as a comedians venue gets bigger (due to increased amount of fans) the broader their humor gets. It's the same with your favorite metal bands...theyre the best in small clubs, playing their best material. Then when they make it to theaters and stadiums, they gotta go with the more mainstream stuff to appeal to a large group of folks who will mostly be more casual fans.

I does feel like Dave burned out on comedy and developed rich people poisoning.

It's for sure has been brought up before by actual comedians, I don't even remember who it was (maybe one of them was Bill Burr), but the discussion concluded that 1. comedy often derives from tragedy/hardship, so the more poor/unsuccessful they were, the more material they had to make comedy out of (the discussion at the start was about how someone already rich/privileged is less likely to be a funny stand up comedian), and 2. the richer a good comedian becomes, the less need they have to bust their ass and keep honing their craft.

Of course! I always try to bring something new to the table 💕

It could be SO GOOD if he was self aware enough to pull it off. I really don’t think he is.

NO MORE BULLSHIT! 😅

jimmy carr got mocked for prefacing some fairly tame and stale dark jokes with how apparently edgy and shocking they were. maybe comedians who were cutting edge 20 years ago and haven't changed their material since then talk about how risqué they still are as a way to deal with feeling passé

All of that recollection and feeling for a story and that’s the punchline. So disappointing.

Honestly that would be a step up from his current repertoire

OOOOF. I didn't even realize.

Uhm are we seeing the same? 31 from the "critics" and 91 audience score. Also for Dave 20 critics and 82 adience. Nobody gives a flying fuck about "critics", they are, like gaming "journalistst" just a waste of oxygen.

You sound like a cultist lol

Awh thank you so much ☺️ 💕

I saw Dave’s last special before this one and just wish he would cut out certain parts (like about assaulting women and the trans jokes) and it would be perfect. Even his audience didn’t laugh nearly as much at those parts and you could hear them cringe. He’s not listening to see what jokes he should keep in his special anymore. He also tried to be like Hannah Gadsby but he told someone else’s story for his own benefit instead of telling his own story. I have an issue with that because it comes off as disingenuous and profiting off of someone else’s death. I think their brand has always been to offend but they are now offending people who don’t need more offending (the poor, women, trans people, autistic people). I think people should concentrate on people who have the same rights first.

And the golden globe goes to.... Cry harder

What's a sis dude 😂

Yeah, the punching down factor for both of them IS a really bad sign of them being out of touch and obsolete. That's the problem with wealth that is rarely considered: it WILL cut you off from "the real world", so to speak. The same has happened to Seinfeld though. They let themselves get ivory towered and boy does it show. Soon they'll only be able to do stand up for fing religious zealots 🤮🙄

Did you watch the same Dave Chappelle show that I did or did you watch it with rose colored lense? He is a brilliant comic and hasn't changed. There is a reason Comedy movies are non existent nowadays, and its because we have a weak ass generation who get offended over everything now. The most brittle, and soft generation. Speak for yourself, he is selling out arenas and doing well. But hey, do the online thing and complain about it to your echo chamber. We will continue laughing and going outside, enjoying life.

⁠​⁠@@rickmolina2206You mean comedies like Barbie don’t exist? That’s interesting. And for that matter, most of the Marvel movies are basically comedies. And of course, if wokeness killed comedy, then why did it ONLY affect movies and not TV or online platforms? Sorry but you’re just being tricked by Republicans who are intentionally confusing correlation with causation. The reason we don’t have as many comedies is because Hollywood doesn’t like mid-budget films anymore, which is where most comedies are. They either like blockbusters or low budget films, but most blockbusters aren’t comedies and you don’t notice low budget films. Wokeness didn’t kill film comedies. Capitalism did.

The Dave Chappelle Show wasn’t thought provoking. It was mainly famous for catchphrases, like his Rick James stuff. I mean, I liked the show but it was just goofy skits that only seemed deep to teens and stoners. I think that’s why Chappelle left the show because he realized it was just goofy skits and he wanted to be deeper. But he’s never been deep and his comedy has always relied on people liking him personally, same as most famous comedians. If anyone else repeats Chappelle’s routine, you wouldn’t even know they were trying to be funny.

So making jabs at traditional religion is okay, but challenging the modern church of woke isn't okay? You guys are delusional. You have a problem with your particular interest group being made fun of...that's the truth, but it's disguised as moral outrage LMAOOO

Awh stoppppp

For REAL though.

Well yeah, Ricky didn't make any jokes, he just complained the whole time. OH WOE IS ME~

Oh yeah, you can licherally just say "black people am I right" and they'll clap their flippers together like good trained seals

Somewhat off topic, but I recently watched a Tom Scott video about a flower market in The Netherlands which is larger than the entire country of Monaco.
