  • www.comedyhype.com/ - Back in 1991, Arsenio Hall found himself in a similar face off with the LGBTQ as Dave Chappelle today. Hall would get an impromptu visit from leaders of the 'Queer Nation' during a taping of his hit show, 'The Arsenio Hall Show'. In this special CH News break, we find out why Hall took such a strong stance. Instagram: @ComedyHype & Twitter: @ComedyHype_

      Oh, comedy ain't no joke. It is serious business. It is the spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine go down. Comedians help people think about the unthinkable, and talk about the unspeakable, and see things inside of themselves, in the culture, and the world at large that are difficult to want to look at. Comedians are the social commentators that get a pass to say things that the average person does not know how to bring up and has no platform to do so.

      A Comedian’s primary goal is to make US (ALL of us) laugh , especially at ourselves . That’s where the skill comes in . You can make a rape joke … it’s just difficult to get rape victim to laugh (not impossible ) As Dave put it in one of his stand ups “ I get paid for the attempt (of a joke) “

    I have actually seen the full segment with Arsenio Hall and he even says that a lot of his guests have been gay but aren't ready to come out yet because of fears of how it would affect their careers or their familial relationships and it isn't his place to out them.
    Full respect to him for that speech, because back then it took actual courage for stars and celebrities to come out because you got a lot of doors slammed in your face.

      He said he was "team TERF" in the special in a written comedy routine. Is your premise that every detail of a comic's act is personal disclosure? Dave has also had bits where he said he "fucks feet." Is that part of the routine or personal truth? He's said in his mother specials that he made out with a trans woman. Personal disclosure or part of a written comedy routine? It's dishonest to pull a quote and assume it is a true detail from a personal experience. Or it's pure ignorance of how some creative arts are conceived. Louis CK has a bit about a guy complaining on an airplane. In an interview he said it was really him complaining, but the joke worked better saying it was someone else. comedians shape their work for impact, for laughs. To assume every iota of their act is truth about their life is absurd.

One queen was telling a story/experience of another local queen and was abruptly interrupted by the other queen when she asked if this person in the story was cis or not. The queen telling the story asked why it mattered. The other cohost queen, being trans, said it matters to the extent that it differentiates different human lived experiences.

I am white and one of my favorite shows when I was little was the Jeffersons. I loved George Jefferson and the jokes he made about white people. Now that I am an adult, I see that every white character on that show was a bit of a buffoon which was by design and that's what made it so funny. There are 7 billion souls on this planet and we have to live together, so why not laugh tougher about our differences instead of allow it to make us miserable? Life is too short for that!

We need to stop taking everything so seriously and stop allowing the most radical people to make these rules in society about woke culture to the point where we can't even laugh together.

You think that’s a bad comparison? Trans people are getting murdered in very high numbers. When you tell people you’re on the side of not validating their identity I guarantee you people use that as a justification to murder trans people. It’s so disgusting and insulting to try to compare a bunch of protesters disrupting arsenios show, which is really disrespectful, to Chappelle attacking trans people for no reason other than he’s a old bitter bigot way past his prime.

    Arsenio and Chris have every right to feel the way they do! I have gay friends and I’ve never heard them speak out about any other people’s problems with treatment only theirs. Sorry to say but that’s a shame we are all human beings! Every human being on this Planet should be treated equally and fairly by the God given right of freedom and liberty with the pursuit of happiness from the moment you are born! There’s no in between on that! Just straight forward with no stops for stupid! When people allow ignorance to rule their minds and hearts they lose their souls! If you think you don’t have a soul than you lost a part of what makes you Human!
    If you say I don’t see color well you’re a damn liar but if you say I see you my friend you got it right! Difference between People is what makes us so damned beautiful and wonderful! It brings us so much variety of music , foods, clothes, and styles of art living cool ideas from different points of views! Why wouldn’t anyone want that awesome experience!
    But when you take and smother another human being for just looking different you lose, they lose and that’s a shame on you!
    Can you imagine for just one moment how beautiful and wonderful this world could be if everyone could just let the bad from the past be laid to rest! If it could be buried like long lost kin! Nobody remembers them not really think about it! It’s so sad we beat ourselves out of a grand life in this ignorance of stupidity. I can only say I’m 59 soon and hope before I die people change for the better! I’d love to see this world joined as one in humanity as understanding and love wins.
    God Bless everyone everyday for all your lives.
    Please stop and say a kind thing to someone just to do it, you just might save a life without knowing it.
    🙏❤️🤗

      Racist isn't a sexual preference. It's called obligation.. I have gay and trans friends and family. They know how I feel on the subject. It's about respect and understanding. Even my best friend jumped on the bandwagon without even watching it. Like yo.. you're smarter than that... but feelings somehow override facts.. do I believe trans women are real women.. no.. but do I respect their right to be who they are... yes.. some women can't have kids or periods. But they still are women. Body make up genes all that.. A trans female can't biologically bare children. That's the difference. Like when a trans man has a child.. no the biology of that person is still female and has the ability to bare children. No where in nature is it the other way. It's either you reproduce asexually or in some species some will change sex for reproduction. But there's ALWAYS an opposite. And that's what's being canceled. Science and facts to make one group of people comfortable. But blacks still struggle , our protest get overlooked when a few assholes corrupt the message. But no one dare speak about the LGBTQ community even when they are flat out wrong.. and that is what dave was talking about. It wasn't about them it was about a system that caters to everyone else who isn't black.

    The problem with the "gay community" is that it doesn't think that it's a reflection of the larger community, in that, in its pursuit to not be victimized, doesn't think that it has racist and prejudicial "blind spots" as well. Ergo, when you call it out on being just as racist and prejudicial as the greater society, it feigns victimhood, but has no problem using methods that only those who have social privilege would employ. That's why, for now, any gay person of color, who are defending the backlash against Dave Chappelle, are THE definition of being sellouts to corporate interests, which is influenced by gay interests and the "woke" progressives.

    Agree with your view. Arsenio had all kinds of people on his show. Like he said some of the guest are gay and we just don’t know it. Like he said Elton John was in the show. The people the gay activists suggested are and weren’t interesting. Arsenio’s goal was to have interesting guess that most of his audience wanted to see and hear.

      There seem to be "movements" defended by people that aren't part of the movement but support the movement with their being offended by anything that questions or doesn't honor and worship the ideals of the movement, movements.
      Simple rule, if you can't make fun of yourself, or accept being made fun of, learn to understand you are the truest form of a bigot.
      And every hate filled person, believes there is nobility in this Paradigm. You can recognize them by one of their mantras, "speech and thinking is violence. And Anyone who disagrees with us is a threat and makes our life unsafe!"
