I keep seeing this dumb clip so let an actual DM put in some two cents.
Being performative like this, in the moment for the game, doesn't matter to me. In D&D, if the mood fits, it fits. Have fun is main goal.
My only issue is there's too much politics at the table these days.
This is 5ish full unedited minutes of metokur's stream tonight. This shit sucks so bad, this is like your coworker showing you dog shit normie tier videos while swearing "it's the funniest thing ever bro", and then they get mad when you don't even move a facial muscle while they hold their phone in your face. He should start calling these "coworker streams"
Maybe one day Dave will look back and say, "Maybe I shouldn't have gone that far. It was a mistake and we're both human." But I don't think it will.
If he still believes that Charlie was evil and deserved death, Chappelle can take a seat next to him, because he's evil, too.
As someone who enjoyed George Carlin and still does appreciate his work, here's my take on Dave Chappelle.
In comedy, I think you should be able to make whatever jokes you want. Humor is subjective and runs right alongside free speech. Even Charlie defended Chappelle once.
It's clear he didn't like Kirk. No one is disputing that. Was it in bad taste? Yeah. Was it too soon? Probably. Should he be silenced for what he said? Absolutely not.
All I can say is as a fan of Dave, I'm disappointed, but I also know he gives no fucks about that.
@BrandonStraka Full context is below.
TLDR: Dave said Charlie is in hell, and went into a rant about his black pilots tak that is popular in social media circles so much so that audience members began to walk out. He said the crowd sucked shortly after.
‼️Someone Who Was ACTUALLY In The Room At Dave Chappelle’s Show Has Now Released The FULL Context Of What Was Said About Charlie Kirk. 😱
In the footage and breakdown, Chappelle states that ever since Charlie was murdered he has felt better, adds that he knows Charlie is looking up at the audience from hell, and then goes into a rant calling Charlie racist based on a heavily clipped comment about black pilots as well as calls @RealCandaceO a "Scooby Doo Ass Bitch" who will not let the case go.
This was not presented as a setup or a punchline. It was stated plainly, with no bit attached, in front of a crowd that had already had their phones locked in pouches. The person who recorded it notes how awkward the room became and confirms that many people walked out mid-set. Dave Chappelle even got angry and made the comment that "This Crowd Sucks"
The breakdown includes Charlie’s original full comments on the pilot remark so viewers can hear the actual argument instead of the shortened version that has circulated. Be sure to watch the OP's FULL video linked down below for their perspective. 👇

@evilaj2010 Long story short: he's selling a plushie and is using some anime girl AI shit to sell it. People were put off, some enjoyed it, others cared less. Now Venti and Josh Moon are calling him washed and are three or four steps away from yelling, "why won't you die medicare???"
@Bad_Banner Having watched @MoshiMoshiMoan since his Jim81Jim days, I can say calling him a lolcow just doesn't fit. Grifter? For sure. But not a lolcow. He doesn't sperg or seethe over stupid shit, he actually has a passion to leave his wife with something when he's gone. That's honorable.
Dear @DeadbyDaylight@Behaviour:
You told a streamer “WE CAN TAKE THE HEAT. THEY ARE YOURS TO KEEP.” Then you folded the moment a vocal portion of your community demanded it.
You gifted TheBurntPeanut content during his first stream, then treated unfounded and exaggerated claims about his character as gospel. You stripped the content, issued statements that effectively accepted the framing that associating with him with violated your values, and apologized to the people who were most offended. All-the-while the employee who made the call was being doxxed and threatened by that same community you were kneeling in front of.
You did not meaningfully defend your own staff. You did not require evidence before punishing the streamer and his audience, or admonishing them all publicly as if they were some toxin. You did not stand by the clear statement your official account made. Instead you rewrote the rules after the fact to prioritize the loudest moral demands over process, fairness, and basic employee protection.
In no way was this leadership. It was capitulation. A company that claims to value its community should not treat one segment’s outrage as the final word, nor leave its own people exposed while it grovels to the mob. An apology is owed... to Peanut, to his community for the baseless character attacks you legitimized, and especially to the employee you failed to defend.
Do better.
@Mr_Zantastic Frankly, holding a streamer accountable for the people who watch them is a level of insanity I can't understand. Because then if you hold them accountable, that means ANY wrong doing can fall back on you.
Imagine if they hurt or kill someone. Guess peanut goes to jail too, right?
