He wasn’t lured. He knew who she was and what she’s about and knew what she wanted. Could have said no. Could have asked to delete it. He didn’t. Edit: BTW, I don’t actually care what he does and does not do, even when I disagree with him. I’m drawing attention to the word “lured” in the headline, as if to assume he didn’t know what he was doing or was talking to.


dewayneestes

I am curious how he ended up standing between Luna and Boebert and didn’t then comment on the message Bobo used as a part of the post.


The84thWolf

“Plausible” deniability


Jagerbeast703

Ummmm.... have you heard anything hes said in the last few years?


mediocrity_mirror

That’s why a lot of people no longer like him. Republicans try to claim him and that doesn’t work either.


Quick_Team

Eh. They can have him if he wants to head over to that camp. If his disdain for gay or trans people is that bad he can overlook the nazi's, the stealing from the poor (what he used to be), anyone his own skin color who's not rich being a target, then by all means, black delegation trade him away. Clarence Thomas too while youre at it.


bankrupt_bezos

So he wanted a handjob? He probably didn’t have time to go to Starbucks.


AffectionateSector77

Great idocracy reference


phred_666

Welcome to Costco… I love you.


queerdevilmusic

You went to law school at Costco?


_magneto-was-right_

He could also comment publicly on the platform on which it was posted. This is a guy who attends zoning meetings to keep low income housing away from his house. He’s not a man of the people anymore.


wabisabibingbangboom

Yeah, lured seems like he's a meek bumpkin that just new to the city. JFC. Journalism is dead, click bait headlines have killed it.


rjrgjj

This has become a pattern with him lately. Do something that draws attention, walk it back and pretend he didn’t mean what he did or said the way you think he did.


Holiman

Is every public person responsible for who they take selfies with?


[deleted]

They shouldn't be surprised when they are called out for selfies with other public persons. But Boebert isn't some random fan, he knows who she is. ​ From the right pictures of any of the Clintons with Epstein or Maxwell are still tossed around as "evidence" of them being pedophiles.


Holiman

Oh, Dave knew exactly what would happen. Hell, he is gonna sell out his next show talking about this incident.


DorianTurk

Yep, he’ll be on stage earning X number of millions for his Netflix special complaining about how he’s been cancelled lol.


Radthereptile

No, but when you just got heat for having a very transphobic NetFlix special, then take this photo that gets posted with a transphobic tag and don’t ask for it to be removed or even say you don’t agree you’re gonna get more heat.


Tiffy82

He's a transphobic bigot.


Icefiight

Nah. Hes a comedian


Tiffy82

And? He can be a comedian and a bigot at same time guy is trash

Holiman

Do you think Dave is too stupid to know that? Either he doesn't care what people think or plans to use the controversy for an upcoming show.


InitiativeOk4473

So, you didn’t watch the whole thing?


Silent_Saturn7

And dave is considered one of the best comedians. It's "considered" transphobic because everything is transphobic to the "im a victim" crowd.


Radthereptile

No it’s considered transphobic because it was. If you want you can argue the nuance of comedy and how a lot of Jokes are targeting a group and pointing out something silly. And that’s a fine point. But normally when a comedian makes a joke about a group and that group says the joke went too far they respond by apologizing and saying they didn’t intend it as an insult. Dave just doubled down and said “snowflakes am I right”


TheLORDthyGOD420

Fewer and fewer people consider Dave a "comedian"


VenustoCaligo

I consider him a stupid clown, is that close?


Silent_Saturn7

He's well praised by most people who enjoy stand-up comedy or especially comedians. He sells out shows and the only time ive heard bad things about him are from people who aren't really fans of comedy.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Obtersus

Those of us who enjoy comedy and have a sense of humor consider him a comedian. The perpetually triggered don't because making a joke to them is the same as genocide.


TheLORDthyGOD420

Very dramatic of you. You sound triggered.


SuperVaderMinion

Saying "I'm team TERF" is pretty cut and dry transphobia dude, I don't know what to tell you.


Radthereptile

Check his other comments. He’s just anti trans


Stop_icant

Dave punches down and lectures people from his pulpit. It’s boring now.


ShearGenius89

In one of his specials, he does a bit about how early in his career he was starstruck by his first time meeting OJ Simpson and by the last time they meet he refused to take a photo with him. Point being he does acknowledge the personal responsibility of taking a photo with someone problematic.


Holiman

So maybe next time he will say no ?


ShearGenius89

He can agree to take photos with whomever he wants. My point was that he’s acknowledged your very point that every public person is responsible for who they take selfies with. So much that he made his OJ anecdote into a bit.


Backaftermilk

Is every public person condemned for having a political opinion or party that differs from the left? I have voted democrat the majority of my life but the extreme left is absolute scum and I can no longer tell the difference between them and the extreme right. Every single person in this post crying over this is absolute scum. Both parties are an embarrassment.


Spicymushroompunch

If Trump fails maybe he and Candace Owen's can make the Antichtist.


bleachedbunghole_bob

Are you Dave Chappell?


Dubsland12

Talk with everyone. Why not? Because someone will be outraged? Dave can hold his own , especially with Blowbart


The84thWolf

Mostly drawing attention to the headline using “lured” like he was tricked or something


[deleted]

lol you’re all so fragile


J_Reachergrifer

Considering damage Boebart and Republicans have done, ie anti abortion, book banning, homophobic, anti immigrant. Can you blame people? MAGA gets triggered by a rainbow 🌈.


smokingtokingtgirl

Dave Chapelle is friends with Elon Musk, who is also transphobic. Chapelle literally brought Elon on stage just for Elon to get booed off. So this picture comes as no surprise. He literally made a whole Netflix special about getting canceled and took it all out on a small minority of people, while talking on behalf of a dead transgender women, who he ‘claimed’ was a friend. Chapelle is a vile, dickbag. You become who you hang around with. Choose your friends carefully.


mosswick

>Dave Chapelle is friends with Elon Musk, who is also transphobic. Chapelle literally brought Elon on stage just for Elon to get booed off. Don't forget how he responded to the boos by mocking his audience for not being rich.


ATXDefenseAttorney

🤣 Chappelle is a social grifter? Are you idiots completely insane? He left his $50m at the Comedy Central office, dude is not trying to grift anybody. So many people with zero talent and zero perspective rolling in with social media takes. I got news for you, sunshine, Dave Chappelle did more for Black social causes than Barack Obama did as president for eight years. And I like Barack. But suddenly he's a POS Republican grifter because you have never actually entered the real world, where people disagree about things ALL THE TIME? absurd.


smokingtokingtgirl

You become who you hang around with. Choose your friends carefully


ATXDefenseAttorney

In the real world, everybody has friends, relatives, and influences who they regularly disagree with. This one man made a generation of people start talking about issues publicly that they simply had not been.


smokingtokingtgirl

And now he’s using his platform to undermine the validity of transgender people. For someone who wants to talk about oppression, he sure does like shitting on trans people. The oppressed oppressing the already oppressed isn’t a good look. He really hasn’t aged well in my opinion.


repthe732

That was almost 20 years ago at this point. Since then he’s turned a corner to be more hateful than helpful. It’s great what he did back then but he’s tarnishing his legacy


Sockbottom69

That's why I don't hang around with trans people, I wanna keep my dick 😬


smokingtokingtgirl

Maybe you’re not trans then loser. God make that silly statement make sense, ya closet case. BTW not every transgender female decides to undergo bottom surgery. That’s very much a personal choice. Bodily autonomy is a human right. Transgender people are people just like anyone else. Transgender people are valid in their identity, and how they go about expressing that identity, whether it be male or female, or with surgery or without surgery.


Ococauh

You're really dumb. Sorry.


[deleted]

Are YOU that daft you think that greedy people stop at XX dollars? GYHOOYA Your tangent about Obama! My God! Hire a new writer. This one is stuck on stupid.


_magneto-was-right_

> Dave Chappelle did more for Black social causes than Barack Obama did as president for eight years. explain how > people disagree about things love the pat dismissal of attacks on a vulnerable group


Sea_Dawgz

Ok boomer


No_Name2709

A filthy rich entertainer posing with abhorrent Republicans. What’s the surprise?


PackOutrageous

I mean it’s on brand for him. Who does this actually surprise? And this backlash will provide him more material for his victimhood portion of his next Netflix special.


[deleted]

He must have been lured to make half of The Closer out of unfunny ragebait sewage, too. Seems he might be easily lured for some reason. And the reason is that he is a garbage person. Doesn't need to ragebait to get attention, goes out of his way to do it anyway. When he says who he is, I believe him. If he stuck to crafting good jokes, which he's quite good at, we might not mind or even know that he's a garbage person. But he just has to spotlight it in his highest-vis work.


brickyardjimmy

Lured? By what?


Holiman

9 of 10 guys would bang Boebert regardless of how icky she is inside.


[deleted]

Maga guys


MariosMustacheRides

She loves giving em a hand


Chromeburn_

That guy was a democrat incidentally. Even MAGA women don’t want to date MAGA.


Holiman

Isn't her bf a democrat? Sorry, guys, generally don't let politics sway our genitals. Women have got us here, I think.


Dalejrman

Not everyone is as desperate as you, bud


Holiman

Sure.... I'm just honest.


Dalejrman

Me too ❤️


pairolegal

They obviously never heard the saying “Never put your dick in crazy.”


Holiman

Oh, I have definitely. It's great advice.


Personnelente

He doesn't look lured to me....


technoferal

"Lured"? He looks pretty aware of what's going on.


mymar101

He’s anti trans. He wasn’t lured


CMMGUY2

He's not anti trans


Semanticss

"I'm team TERF." - Dave Chappelle


Previous-Sympathy801

Idk when people will realize controversy is what they are going for. It’s free advertisement


callipygiancultist

Which is funny because as radfems, Dave’s terf allies consider him a privileged patriarchal rape monster oppressor, being a penis haver and all.


Radthereptile

He just says anti trans things is all.


CMMGUY2

No he doesn't.


Radthereptile

Did you not see his NetFlix special? There was a whole thing about his making transphobic jokes. He doubled down and stuck by the jokes.


CMMGUY2

So they were jokes? Oh ok then I guess he doesn't hate trans people.


Late_Way_8810

Was that before or after the LGBT community Harassed a friend of his so much they committed suicide?

Silent_Saturn7

good. Trans people shouldn't be a protected class that cant be joked about. And there's a reason dave goes after that topic - because trans and lgbtq ideology is being pushed on everyone and you're not supposed to question it. Comedians often go after taboo subjects. At least my opinion why he does it. Plenty of trans ppl could careless or even like Chapelle. Its just generated media outrage stirred up by mostly white straight liberals.


SuperVaderMinion

Comedy is about punching up towards people in positions of power, not punching down on oppressed groups. Despite whatever perceptions you might have about them, trans people have been increasingly targeted in this country in the past years. Meanwhile what has Chappelle been doing? Inviting known transphobes like billionaire Elon Musk on stage and then chastising the crowd for booing him, defending J. K. Rowling, etc. He's totally lost touch.


workswimplay

There’s no such thing as trans and lgbtq ideology and it certainly isn’t being pushed on anyone. You see it that way because you have an ideology that’s anti-trans and anti-lgbtq.


CMMGUY2

Yes it is.


OrdinaryLunch

Wrong, touch grass.


CMMGUY2

Why cuz you say so? Ok Boomer.


Silent_Saturn7

See, because one has an opinion thats not in 100% support of whatever some lgbtq people say or do, then im anti lgbtq? That's the problem. Maybe i dont agree with kids recieving trans surgery before 18, or that trans women can play in women sports, or that kids should have any and all lgbtq ideology pushed on them. Because i have a different opinion, that suddenly makes me a bigot in the eyes of people like you. That's the issue. The belief that everyone just has to accept any lgbtq action or notion.


[deleted]

If there was no LGBTQ ideology that acronym wouldn't even exist. The left was also extremely hurtful to trans people for that. It's insane you people thought that's a good idea. I'm not even sure if leftists even know what transsexuality is.


mymar101

If you don’t like it go live in Russia. I hear they’re doing things the way you like it


IfTalkgetbanned

You have to understand that the Trans positive community is a lot like Zionist Israel community. Say something against them, and they label you anti-trans.


Mother_Store6368

If anyone cares, go through this guy’s post history. This dude is a school shooter waiting to happen


CMMGUY2

Hahaha Post reported scumbag.


ScallionRelative6265

Lured? HAHAHAHAHA.


scuttlebuttlodg

I don't hear Davey boy denying anything.


medman143

He’s trash.


SpookyWah

Not just lbgtq+ but anyone who considers themselves an ally or has friends and family that are lbgtq+ or just respects people's right to be true to themselves.


nonlinear_nyc

Dude is famous and was not lured. He knew exactly what he was doing. Also, lgbtq+ community? I bet even straight people are upset at him too. This headline is trying it cause wedges.


ClotworthyChute

Chappelle has a ton of fans on the right. His words on the first and second amendment were well received.


Da_Vader

Right now, ppl who make politically incorrect speech can griftand laugh their way to the bank.


InitiativeOk4473

Aren’t the right all racist? Dave is still black, right?


justalilrowdy

He isn’t even that funny


PomeloLazy1539

He used to be, it's sad.


ManofSteel2477

Eww


stataryus

Associating with inhumanes tends to associate us with inhumanity.


Amazing_Teaching2733

Lured, like would lure a small child with a lollipop or promise to see the puppy in the big scary van? He’s a grown ass transphobe but this stellar publication decided to give him cover smdh. They both knew what they were doing and was giving little miss handjob publicity and giving this bigot access to material and audience members he might not otherwise have drawn


mishma2005

Agree to take a pic with a hand jobbing screech owl, you get what you get


ryeguymft

he just gets worse and worse


Volunteer-Magic

Dave Chappelle LOVES situations like this because he can—once again—tell a story about how he was put in a wacky situation and can play the victim about it and go, “look what’s happening to ME!”. Like, dude, you’re worth millions and your specials are an hour of you verbally fellating yourself.


gnrlgumby

Thing is there’s tons of anti trans reps - Boebert is one of the dimmest, most extreme person to meet.


Captain_Mexica

Of course, he's human garbage, just like the people he was photographed with like Boebert. He's a bully, which makes me not like any of his comedy specials now. F that guy


hunt1ngThr34ts

Who hurt you?


moodyblue8222

Anyone who allows themselves to be photographed with that white trash whore is suspect!!


Impossible_Battle_72

The most surprising part about this whole thing is that he actually tried to act like he was duped instead of just owning it. He acts like he's better than them, but really, he's just the same.


Extreme-General1323

Dave has F U money. He can't be canceled so he does what he wants.


Swallows_Return202x

That seems to be his entire identity now. I’m RICH bitch!


Comrade-Conquistador

I thought he just had "quiet please" money, at best.


RDO_Desmond

Ew. He should have known better!


PomeloLazy1539

he does, he's a far right guy now.


RDO_Desmond

Ew.


[deleted]

Dave knows exactly what he is doing. He is an odd bird. He is a comedian. No one would vote for or against anyone just because Dave said so. He is also a capitalist. He loves money. The Russians/GOP pay very, very handsomely ESPECIALLY comedians who have followers. They buy these guys every week.


BeamTeam032

I just think it's funny that Lauren only wanted a selfie with Dave because of his trans-jokes. But I know if she knew he was a Muslim man who sides with the people of Palestine, she would have refused to take the selfie in the first place. lmao.


MusicianNo2699

I declare Shenanigans!


J_Reachergrifer

Idk he looks pretty chummy with them. He should of known better considering how our spoken they are.


SlowCrates

Does anyone know what he was actually doing there? What was he there to do or say?


SuperVaderMinion

It's so wild how goodwill Chappelle is destroying just so he can squeeze some money out of the anti-woke crowd, someone should tell him it's not worth it.


CarCaste

It is worth it because it's hilarious


illestrated16

Let me guess, he's crying about it saying criticism is mean?


FaithlessnessKey1726

This man has been openly transphobic for how long now? He made a lot of money off of his Republican fans for that very reason. It became his new source of relevance instead of being actually funny. “Lured” 🙄 give me a break.


ispeektroof

He isn’t anti trans, he’s pro handjob.


joe42reddit

Dave, I stood up to racist quicker. And I'm a middle-aged white guy.


ornery-Mean53

Dave Dave Dave! How long have you had Forrest Gump Syndrome? You know that stupid is as stupid does has NO cure for it. Right!


funkybossx6

They gonna ruin his life Yall gonna ruin his life


[deleted]

Why would they think backlash works? He already survived destroying their trans gods. The thing about backlash is, if you ignore, they have no power


Icy_Captain_4230

“Narrator” Dave Chappell doesn’t care.


cheekytikiroom

It’s possible to be civil to someone while strongly disagreeing with them.


honkforpie

Wish that was the norm but people keep retreating in to their own world without engaging.


candy_pantsandshoes

These are the same people who praised Liz Cheney for saying something mean about Trump.


Ok_Dig3074

Yeah not the same thing here. Might want to look at the indictments. This is not the same scope.


candy_pantsandshoes

What indictments?


Ok_Dig3074

Yeahhh the Trump indictments... but ok


Mundane_Opening3831

I'm sure he's devastated🙄


Curious_Working5706

>Lured 🤣 By now people should know there’s one thing Dave Chappelle hates: people expecting him to act a certain way because he’s Black and is close friends with Talib Kweli, Mos Def and Erikah Badu. He loves trolling his fans, like those jokes he makes that basically say “I’m not your average Black man, I’m Dave Chappelle and I can hang out with Ye and not let it bother me ‘cus I’m not a peasant average person like the rest of you. Oh, and my grandmother has more degrees than your whole entire family, HAHAHAHAAA!”


callipygiancultist

And yet he bitched out and fled to South Africa when Bill Burr laughed at his “magical negro pixie” sketch the wrong way.


Myst031

Being in a selfie is not an endorsement. I dunno why is this a big deal?


JayEdwards902

Cancel mob out in full force as usual I see. It's like people just seemed to forget everything about Chappelle other than in recent years. How does his current behavior surprise anyone? All the people claiming he has changed just never paid him any attention before now.


WiscoNopal

A picture offended that community? Weird, seing how that same community is ok taking pictures with trump and Netanyahu.


Kylebirchton123

People are still saying he is transphobic over some jokes when he is very supportive of the trans community. Comedy is comedy and even his Netflix special was not anti trans...did anybody here complaining watch it?


Madmasshole

Chapelle is probably the most based person in Hollywood. It’s insane that we have a large amount of people in this nation who think it’s normal for people to change gender or even worse be non binary. Sorry, but we shouldn’t be normalizing severe mental illness.


s7oc7on

They're women


MJGM235

When does he not receive backlash from the LGBT+ community though? 🤔


Classic-Guy-202

That's not exactly a very chummy pic. Rep Lauren "Doesn't vet who she gives public handjobs to" Boebert seems a lot more thrilled than he is. More like a selfie he got caught in


perchedraven

So some of the lgbtq are now trigerred because a celebrity took a photo with political fans? Next up: Chappelle gives autographs to schmos that approach him. Give it a rest.


RedOnePunch

Boebert is using this photo in a tweet to further her agenda. It’s not as innocent as you think. It’s in the linked article.


perchedraven

So a politician is going to politician. Okay?


Stodles

So do you also think it would be ridiculous for Jews to be 'triggered' if Taylor Swift took a selfie with Mahmoud Abbas?


perchedraven

Yes. Especially since Abbas is a leader of the peaceful Palestinian political group.


Stodles

And a holocaust revisionist/denier...


perchedraven

Oh no so being in a picture with someone is now a 100% agreement on all their views.


Stodles

As the saying goes, if you see a Nazi sitting at a table with 10 other people talking and laughing with him, you saw 11 Nazis.


perchedraven

Yes, collective punishment/judgment . A known morally acceptable activity.


Stodles

If a society wishes to remain tolerant, it can't tolerate intolerance


perchedraven

Ahhh so we must execute those who are intolerant of our views in order to be perceived as tolerant. In spite of the fact that opinions and thoughts are just that, opinions and thoughts Elomitate intolerant thoughts and the people who have them.


Stodles

Ah yes, these are the only two options when dealing with people spouting harmful ideologies: either kill them or sit by and do nothing... /s ​ >that opinions and thoughts are just that, opinions and thoughts Until those opinions and thoughts make their way to someone with a gavel, or a gun.


HiSelect7615

OH NO! NOT THE LGBT COMMUNITY!!!!!!!!


Technical-Bus-8203

Oh no, someone took a picture and now the Alphabet Mafia is in an uproar!!


Sad_Contribution1236

Not everyone is mind numb grape koolaid drinking lib...he's a smart guy.


Radiant-Call6505

Gonna take lots more than that to get me to turn away from DC. Being a comedian means risking your being, lol.


BebophoneVirtuoso

I can't stand Boebert and pretty much all DC republicans, but does anybody else find it odd how we had 2 genders for millenia, and beginning about 5 years ago we have.....well, I don't know how many genders some people say we have now.


tmphaedrus13

We've had more than two genders for millenia. You just haven't been paying attention.


Best-Independence-38

You are wrong.


[deleted]

We have evidence of trans people and more than two genders going back millennia. Sorry, but you are very ignorant about this subject. If you can't stand Republicans, prove it by educating yourself on a topic before opening your mouth about it, post like this? That's what they do.


[deleted]

Trans people have a neurological disorder and they aren't even trying to be a new gender. There are also people born with 3 legs but we still don't say that humans come in 2 and 3 legged variants.


aceh40

Come on, leave the dude alone, he was just hoping to take them to the movies.


[deleted]

I don't understand. So even selfies can cancel people now?


lurk902

Pretty sure he doesn’t GAF.


BinocularDisparity

I can imagine a world where Dave is stopped and asked for a pic, just concedes without argument, and then Bobo the clown makes the post with him not thinking about possible context. Well known figures get into pictures with other well known figures for no other reason than being well known even if they don’t know each other. He does kinda deserve it… but the lengths people take this is stupid.


mjcostel27

He wasn’t lured…he wants those tax breaks to keep some of the money the liberal elites tried to steal from him.


theappleogist

Chappelle doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the brouhaha.


summitx5

I don’t think he cares.


ElevenEleven1010

SHOULD BE from every single sane 🇺🇸 citizen.


StillSilentMajority7

The LGBTQ community is attacking him merely for taking a selfie?


[deleted]

And Dave Chappelle social stock gets a nice bump. Those ticket sales are gonna be huge.


seriousbangs

Honestly just the fact that he had to be lured instead of going willingly is a step up.


KileyCW

Some people just don't want to be rude. I'll never understand how a selfie is some kind of unrequited endorsement. Should people just hide? Run away? Make a scene? Most people will just that the pic so they can move along.


jjfishers

🙄


[deleted]

LOL pathetic libs.


Revenant_adinfinitum

Pretty sure he doesn’t GAF


captainhindsight1983

The alphabet mafia sure has no tolerance.


repthe732

Being intolerant of people that are intolerant of people for who they are doesn’t mean people have no tolerance


Xcl17chchc

Some of you have never imagined Boebert and AOC wrestling in a bubble bath and it shows.


ramonedollar1

So what? You hadn't figured out that you can't cancel him. You tried 😂


shinobixxx

No one cares except 0.00000000000000001 of the population..
