I agree with him.

i think he is going easy on them because they are in the entertainment business. if they were conservative politicians he wouldn't be quite as understanding.

reply

Possibly, but I think he is on the right track.

lol

Me too. Dave Chappelle said nothing wrong! Nothing but facts! I'm sick of the mainstream media trying to make the Black race the face of anti semitism. Black folks haven't done anything to those people! Black folks didn't put them in camps and ovens!!! Black soldiers liberated those folks in ww2!!

reply

Black Hebrew Israelites and Nation of Islam are both anti-Semitic. Black supremacists may outnumber white supremacists!

Google: The all-Black 92nd Infantry Division fought the Germans in Italy, while the all-Black 93rd Infantry Division fought the Japanese in the Pacific.

Every group of people under the sun get made fun of, and people laugh. It’s only a problem for people when they’re butt of the joke.

People stay woke on select issues only.

In January he accused JK Rowling of anti-Semitism because Goblins were a "Jewish stereotype". Goblins are 14th century mythology which she was familiar with as was Tolkien.

Jumping on the anti Rowling bandwagon! After people pointed out he was an idiot, he made a fake retraction.

The US comic, who used to host The Daily Show, now presents Apple TV series The Problem with Jon Stewart and its accompanying podcast.

In a December episode of the podcast, Stewart discussed scenes from the Harry Potter film series, set in the magical bank Gringotts.

In Rowling's hugely successful books and the subsequent films, the goblins who run the bank are depicted as ill tempered, diminutive creatures who are the guardians of the gold.

The first book describes one as "about a head shorter than Harry".

"He had a swarthy, clever face, a pointed beard, and Harry noticed, very long fingers and feet," it says.

So what? Sure, not every claim that everyone makes is going to be serious or credible. Why do you base almost every comment or statement you make on the exceptions to the rule rather than the rule? Hey, I heard that a man bit a dog - go wild with that one.

reply

Of course he was serious. Everyone who criticizes JK is. He's incapable of make a joke!

reply

hear, hear!

Ignore the new normal Jon Stewart the sellout.
