I love Dave Chappelle.
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

He's brilliant but nowadays the narrative is his reality. He's as angry and righteous about white cops murdering black folk as anybody.

I hadn't seen that - I know it's not something anybody here seems to want to accept, and feel free to write me off as a brain-dead liberal as you see fit, but maybe, just maybe, he has a point? Maybe there is actually some truth to the narrative.
I honestly don't know. I'm not black. I've lived a very privileged life. I've never been pulled over because I'm driving a car that doesn't seem to fit my demographic. What I do know is that when I hung out with a bunch of Pakistani kids for a few years in the UK, they frequently had to endure all kinds of shit that I'd never come across.

I watched his 26-minute open-air thing in Ohio several times now. He's got his own narrative about this. He's on the "police brutality" side of the argument to be sure, but his arguments are his own. It'd be dishonest to label him as a mouthpiece.
His point about Chris Dorner and the importance about how that drama ended was well-considered.

In England they've had these shows where a conservative spokesperson has to live on benefits for a month to prove how freaking easy it is, as the statistical analysis say that it's easily a living wage.
There are numerous examples of this not being nearly as easy as was thought. Apart from anything else, have you any idea how difficult it is to find smoked salmon and pate de foie gras at an affordable price?

Most of the conservative spokepeople think they have useful jobs. I know it's a fucking ridiculous idea, but apparently they believe it.

You haven't seen the spokespeople
Yes, obviously, the people should get jobs where possible, but it's not always that simple. During an economic downturn, for example, there isn't a miraculous increase in the number of lazy bastards.

Anyone ever wonder why our first black president never mentioned this "holiday" a single time during his 8 years of infesting the office of the President? Ever wonder why Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson have never mentioned this "holday" a single time in the 5 or 6 decades they've been running their mouths? Ever wonder why in 30+ years not one single rap artist has ever mentioned this "holiday" a single time in any of their songs?
I'll tell you why - until about 3 weeks ago, 98% of the black people in this country had never heard the term outside of one town in Texas.
