Because Dave Chappelle doesn't do comedy for most of his shows now. He has gone to that type of comedy where it's more on the side of musings on society, personal opinions, and anecdotal takes on the way things are.
Chappelle is most funny when he is commenting on race issues because it's what he knows, he is a lot less funny when he is commenting on LGBT issues because he is ignorant and doesn't really understand the nuances like he thinks he does. He's right with some of what he says, but it's just not funny.
TL;DR: He transitioned from 'I'll make it funny" to 'It's funny because I said it'

There is no difference, either way you stop crafting the joke at whatever point you say the joke is the funniest, but if you want to say he has gotten lazy with time and doesn't spend as much time on craftsmanship anymore, that is an entirely different argument.
>There is no difference
There is a massive difference
One is actually making and creating a joke and the other is not saying a joke just making a statement hoping people laugh at it because you've been funny in the past
>because you've been funny in the past
It is because he has said a lot of statements and gotten a lot of reactions which he has learned a lot from, so he doesn't think he has to spend as much time dissecting each statement to assess whether people will generally laugh at it because he has decades of experience judging statements based on how much laughter they will generally generate. Just like how an experienced carpenter doesn't have to spend as much time to get a perfect cut compared to a beginner.
OP here. I think you’re on the money. He keeps confusing personal opinions for jokes. I don’t mind him clowning LGBTs or whatever, but there still need to be a punchline somewhere.
Imagine thinking there’s anything to know about LGBT people other than they were molested as children and are now deviants. It’s not fricking rocket science. If you’re attracted to the sex you were born as you are broken in a fundamental way.
because virtue signaling and cancel culture are boring
/pol/acks have the delusion only the left has a cancel culture
both extremes have the cancel culture
blame the millennial gen for being boomers v2
zoomers are better for going back to the roots of gen X; they don't give a frick; let there be chaos.
I never really watched much Chappelle cos I’m not American, I watched this when it came on Netflix to see what all the fuss was about. All I got was a guy talking about how great he is for an hour. I don’t care how good his previous shit may have been, I wanted to watch some comedy and it was fricking godawful at that. Chapelle constantly blowing smoke up his own ass didn’t endear me to him at. I’ve heard a lot of people call this guy the greatest comedian ever and I’m wondering if it’s just one of those normie things where someone says it and they all just go along with it.
I'd argue never leaving the house and playing video games for literally thousands of hours is more cringe. The dude is a multi millionaire adored by millions of people. Who are you?
He's right though, Chapelle's resting on his laurels at this point. It's more old man rambling with a few lame jokes he'd have got booed off stage for making if he was an open micer scattered in-between
Oh I agree. I just find it funny mr cheeto puff fingers here is being all judgy mcjudger when his largest achievement in life is probably getting some trophy in a virtual game. The dude did standup for 20+ years. I think he's earned the right to take it easy.
honestly it's less about being funny and more about the satisfaction of hearing a prominent figure talking shit about trannies and other groups of people you hate, and getting paid millions and universal praise for it.
This is why I hate his new stuff. It's like reverse virtue signalling, the content is dull but because he's owning the libs it's called good. Half his set is just clapter
It's being offensive to be offensive, there's nothing funny about it or does it really deserve any respect. Yes, he's been that way in the past but he had a sense of humor about it. It shouldn't be a question to why his fan base is now full of MAGA morons.
He is still pretty highly rated, he is laughing on stage and people are laughing with him, you are the one complaining about not laughing, who really lost their sense of humor?
Yet plenty of people laughed a the same thing you didn't laugh at, so who really doesn't have a sense of humor about it, the people who laughed or the person who goes online to whine about how they don't find anything funny any more because of politics?

They like his “jokes” because it reasserts their political view.

Sure, I bet it is only him who you can't laugh at any more and not pretty much every comedian you have watched ever since you became bitter and humorless over the past few years.
>Public housing going to be built near his hosue >Rejects the idea and speaks out against it in some community meeting/city hall >Fricking goes and buys the land to prevent it
I know it's a shitty move but at the same time it's funny.
cumtown came along and reminded me that comedy should be funny and not some millionaire "spitting facts" chinese charlton heston is funnier than anything ever said on a stage
He used to be funny, all of the Hollywood bullshit got to his head after The Chapelle's Show and it was slowly down hill after that. He's not funny any more, and seems like he's kind of a dick too.
Coz there're no jokes. Netflix comedy specials are just politics.
Netflix goal isn't to serve you good content. It's to make a quick buck from outrage.
He could at least set himself on fire, blow himself up or something to open up more possibilities for jokes if he can't be like Carlin and joke about what makes him angry.
He was funny a long time ago. Age doesn't suit him. It's ok, had a good thing and it was at a time and place. Has a very emotional fan base for some reason.
Either
A. You're a troony
B. You're tired of Chappelle saying "white people bad" for the 100th time
I’m a Black person hater. I will continue to hate Black folk, frick Black folk and FRICK POO!
sisterfricker??
Don't like it, turn it off and go watch something else. How hard is that?

I can tell you're a raggedy assed gay just from that
YWNBAW Black personloving troony
Where the frick is the "nuance" in saying only white kids are school shooters?
Yeah you are just assblasted because you are a troony and he doesn't bow to your narcissistic attitude.

why has he started wearing onesies with patches on them?
>Talks & talks & talks to setup joke
>Finally tells unfunny punchline
>Laughs at his own joke, hits mic on knee
Standup is so fricking cringe
I'd argue never leaving the house and playing video games for literally thousands of hours is more cringe. The dude is a multi millionaire adored by millions of people. Who are you?

Frick you, Alec

Because preachy TED talks are not comedy
he stopped doing the voice

This, exactly why conservatives shill kiss his ass.

I just didn't find it funny.

dave chapelle is a sore winner
Nah he’s fundamentally at odd with himself because he both hates white people and knows without them he would be just another broke nobody.
>Public housing going to be built near his hosue

I know it's a shitty move but at the same time it's funny.
its not a shitty move, he specifically moved to a city with like 4,000 people in bumfrick Ohio and we all know what "public housing" means
it's not true Hollywood stories by charlie murphy
You know it just kills Chappelle that he got rich and famous by making fun of other Blacks. Lol.
Dilate.

probably a closeted ladyboy time to embrace your rightful place in society.

Netflix goal isn't to serve you good content. It's to make a quick buck from outrage.
I don't go see comedians to hear speeches about political matters, unless you're George Carlin or Bill Hicks. Otherwise, just talk about airline food
He could at least set himself on fire, blow himself up or something to open up more possibilities for jokes if he can't be like Carlin and joke about what makes him angry.
Stand-up is not funny and never has been. You're just figuring it out now.
you're white, a troon or both
He was funny a long time ago. Age doesn't suit him. It's ok, had a good thing and it was at a time and place. Has a very emotional fan base for some reason.
