Attendees of Dave Chappelle and Joe Rogan’s co-headline tour event in New, Orleans Louisiana shared their thoughts on cancel culture, including the media firestorm surrounding Chappelle over comments he made about the transgender community in his latest Netflix special.
Attendees speaking with Fox News Digital were overwhelmingly supportive of Chappelle, oftentimes defending his stand-up jokes and criticizing the intensity and prevalence of cancel culture in the media.
"You can’t bow to the mob," said one man. At a separate point in the interview, that same individual asserted"it’s America" and Chappelle should be able to perform however he wants with his platform, noting the show in New Orleans was sold out.One woman said it is a comedian’s job to tell jokes and"offend everybody and anybody.
"I’m not a homophobic person at all but I just don’t understand how a community can rule over comedy, music, and cancel people," another man said."People are taking the cancel culture too far." "Honestly, if making fun of one specific group is off the table I mean that’s just kind of … I don’t know," said another individual. Another man said Chappelle is merely presenting a"balance" to the media, and said that while cancel culture started by"addressing important issues," it has since gone"overboard" and society is now actively working against it.
The event included comedians Donnell Rawlings, Jeff Ross, and Tom Segura. Rogan and Chappelle, while only appearing briefly on stage together, held firm to their respective comedic styles and pressed forward with sharing the jokes and views that originally led to them being targeted by critics.
