The central point I was making in the original post you responded to was the juxtaposition between the different topics he addresses.. and how they flow in completely opposite directions... So how you can accuse me of simply looking him cause he " checks a box" begs the question of how good your reading comprehension is.

Touting it as being better than other modern comedy specials because it "does what REAL comedy is supposed to do" certainly makes it seem like you're just giving it kudos for checking that box.

The fact that you won't shut up about it kind of suggests you're really concerned with the politics in a way that overshadows your appreciation of the comedy.

I said he was baking something that was meant as as joke and percieved as a joke by the vast majority of his audience... As opposed to going on a vindictive vendetta because a few people criticized his last special

And you won't shut up about it.

...?

I saw mindfulness posted a clip from it so I gave my thoughts, after having seen it multiple times

I'm a fan of comedy

That's why I started this thread years back

not in this case

The difference between a joke and a vindictive vendetta in this case is the intent

Is it meant to primarily be funny, or just shoe horned in to be insulting to specific enemies?
Because the PROPER response of a comedian against their critics is to fire back on stage in a funny way. That's their only appropriate weapon.

I'm being completely honest. The fact you followed me in here whenever I happened to post says more about your intentions than the fact that I again commented on chappelles special.
