I don't think Dave Chappelle is a piece of shit. I think a lot of criticism towards him is exactly what his recent gripes about the alphabet people are about. He made fun of everyone and nobody cared, but when he makes fun of the LGBT then all of a sudden people like you say "he's always been a bad guy."
Guess we know why you think he's funny.
Punching up, punching down theory, that's the difference between mockery and joking. One is an offense the other is just comedy. Not all comedy is made equal. There's also making fun of a situation and making fun of a person. The quality of a good comedian is having a good feel for these nuances and when a joke is one or the other.
The fact that you said alphabet people at all, shows me too much of your hand. Try keeping the mask off next time.
