Comedian Jerrod Carmichael called out Dave Chappelle for his recent stand-up that targets trans individuals, but also other comics doing the same and who make a villain on stage of perceived “cancel culture” for voicing those opinions.
Carmichael, who during his HBO stand-up special from April titled “Rothaniel” came out as gay, said in an interview that Chappelle is going down a strange path with his comments that first surfaced in his Netflix stand-up special “The Closer” and offended many in the transgender community.
“Chappelle, do you know what comes up when you Google your name, bro? That’s the legacy? Your legacy is a bunch of opinions on trans s—?,” he told GQ.
