The false inversion distorts the lopsided power dynamics between comics and their critics and denies detractors the license Chappelle demands for comedians. In the same breaths, he preaches freedom and dismisses feedback.

The climax isn't simply the story about Daphne herself, it's what she tells Dave while he's on stage...

What's frustrating about Chappelle's special is that there are bits of shrewd, intelligent observations in the act.

Flashpoint comedy at its finest...a near-brilliant, free-flowing blend of comedy and commentary...If anything, the show is a taunt, its message clear: Cancel me. I dare you.

10/10 This really is some of Chappelle's best work, as a comedian taking topics that are relevabt and edgy then shining a light on it while making people laugh. Some comedians are too scared of backlash to talk about sesnitive topics, Chappelle approaches them without fear, and with a valid point each time.

Not as good as Sticks&Stones, unfortunately he showed a bit of remorse for previous specials, unnecessary explaining himself and pandering to privileged "communities"

Mildly amusing. A pretty standard stand up comedy special.
