Maybe I’m a snowflake now, but I thought a lot of his jokes and terminology to be kind of dated in regards to rape and lgbtqi issues. I mean he uses a slur for gays for no reason. He jokes about making a woman suck his dick. Look at the crowd during the Cosby bits—the women are clearly uncomfortable.
I’m concerned that because of his popularity bigoted white men will feel emboldened to be a little more openly bigoted. “What? I’m just quoting Dave Chapelle! Relax!”

Maybe his time was a decade ago and that’s the way it’s going to be. Things are differently now and rightly so. He’ll have to adapt or be remembered as a great ‘00s comedian.
The rape thing was pretty fucking brilliant. It was a long joke that basically begged the important question a lot of this current year has failed to grasp, that the human condition is complex and things can not be judged on a black and white scale. All or nothing. Cosby is a monster but lets also take a moment to understand why things played out like they did with some people wanting to convince themselves differently. Which is thought inducing in the sense of how all our biases shape the way we view things.
I would need a bit more specifics on the LGBTQ stuff though. I guess the whole go out and decide who is more gay and they are the wife thing? But even that was part of a larger commentary about the unfortunate but necessary way change is achieved and that is through incrementalism. Slow your roll or you will get steamrolled or however he was talking about it.
It reminds me of the endless threads on GAF(or reddit or eye-rolling stuck up millennial blogs) about how people would vilify Bill and Hillary because they didn't take a 2016 type stance on a political issue like gay marriage in 1993. Or how Obama was a fraud because he didn't come out in strong support of gay marriage in 2008.
If some low IQ shitheads that can't recognize that Chappelle's heart is in the right place, and often his brain as well, and they use this stuff to calcify their prejudice, thats a pre-existing condition and shouldn't be a reason to try and censor or condemn the comedy.
