CW: Billionaire entitlement and a tiny slice of schadenfreude
If you haven't seen it, here are thousands of #DaveChapelle fans booing #ElonMusk for four minutes straight, while the transphobic millionaire tries to rescue the situation by insulting his audience.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoNJNuWLU1EAt one point, Chapelle asserts that Musk won't care about the boos because the basic business plan of the Afrikaans #plutocrat is "fuck Earth, I'm leaving anyway". Very true, Dave. But hardly a compliment to your new BFF.
Near the end of the clip Chapelle claims that booing doesn't achieve anything. But it does. After this incident, what are the chances that another entertainer is going to bring this guy on stage now that he's increasingly publicly aligning himself with fascists, white supremacists, reactionaries and anti-scientific conspiracy theorists? Who wants to go down with that ship?
And of course, the account that uploaded this video was banned on the bird site, and those sharing it there are getting posts removed or accounts suspended.
"Free speech absolutist"
"Comedy is now legal"For while, Musk was the joke. But it's well past the point where we ought to laughing about this.
