Dave Chappelle stood on a Madison Square Garden stage last night, mid-routine on his Karmageddon tour, and decided the moment was right to confess that life has felt a little lighter ever since Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Utah.
He framed it as an involuntary mood shift — something he knows he probably shouldn’t voice out loud while noting how terrifying it is to be a public speaker these days — then shrugged it off as “just a feeling.”
Watch:
DAVE CHAPPELLE: “Ever since that guy Charlie Kirk got murdered, and I shouldn’t say this publicly but…. I feel better.” Sick. https://t.co/3gp7eE8aS5

The clip hit social media within hours, and the reaction was immediate and furious, with plenty of people pointing out that this is the same comedian who once had a man rush his stage with a weapon.
We can't help but ask ourselves over and over again, what is WRONG with these people?! Celebrating a young husband and father being assassinated in broad daylight? What happened to Dave Chappelle?
@Breaking911 Absolute trash.

@Breaking911 Dave Chappelle hates White people and he is happy that he hates White people. Evil.

@Breaking911 Hey Dave Chappelle, it wasn't a Conservative who rushed you, on stage, with a knife. It was a transgender named Isaiah Lee.

But Kirk! REEEEEE!
@Breaking911 Chappelle changed in recent years to playing victim. He must be broke?

If you said this about an illegal immigrant who murdered and raped children who was killed in ICE custody, Democrats would clutch pearls and ruin your life. When they say it about a Christian conservative father who was killed while speaking to college kids they clap like seals and laugh like hyenas. They’re demons. @DaveChappelle enjoy hell- your soul is certainly prepared for it!

The double standard practically writes itself: violence against the right is treated as a punchline or a personal emotional upgrade, while any threat from the other direction is still supposed to be taken as a solemn crisis.
