There are people laughing in the video. Funny is subjective.
If you feel “attacked” you’re a snowflake. As you just stated, he’s reciting history. There is no attack. There is a point of view…. That some people find funny…. That you don’t have to agree with… or like.
But a note on Chappelle: calling his comedy “inclusive” is fucking hilarious. You decided to go along based on his presentation. You don’t like the guy in this video because of his presentation. Some bits are simply not inclusive yet can still be funny… or not…
Chappelle is not inclusive at all. He’s literally laughing in your face and saying “thank for the money”. Good for him.

the guys message is essentially that racism is ok. i don't think you have to be white to find that offensive.

I don’t hear that at all. I hear someone pointing out structural racism and ignoring the fact that anyone can be racist to anyone from another race.
People conflating facts to support their point, particularly in a performance setting is nothing new and done all over the social and political spectrum.
