I loved this special!

America: Protesting the anthem by sitting silent - THE OUTRAGE. Also America: glorifying treason - MY FREE SPEECH

The South changed it's relationship status to "It's complicated"

Naw, it's Steve that's in the bad situation.

Saw this live in NY and I was blown away. It's some of the best stand up I've ever seen and the emotional shit is so honest.

Dave Chappelles little white friend, Chip.

Fun fact: He co-directed the Prince and Rick James / Charlie Murphy Chapelle Show skits.
80percentlegs
He was Dave's main partner for the show. His head blows up in the blind black white supremacist bit.
SnakeTaleJohnny
nah, it'd only be that way if the American flag sticker had 34 stars on it.

Yo titty game is bananas!

I say that to my gf all the time now after watching that special. She hates it.
NICEUSEOFWORDSSIR
Nah bro. You can't promise that. I fuck baby sitters.

I've been doing dips all day!

The original Confederate flag was 100% racist in design. It's white color denoted racial purity but was easily confused with surrender ...
IronBaronOfDis
Hence the redesign to red background Stars and Bars. It was designed by a vehement racist who plainly said what the flag meant. Use Google.
QSlade
Fantastic stand up. He has a special on Netflix that's 100% worth watching. Be prepared to feel feels
Muttons1337
I'm not usually one for comics like that. Their funny stuff is really funny, but then they slap you out of your escapism with cold reality.
QSlade
It sure as hell caught me off guard.
Muttons1337
It's the same reason I've only watched Christopher Titus exactly one time.

Actually, for a lot of southerners, the Confederate flag represents their local culture, not a desire to leave the US.

You could use the state flag of your state, or anything else. The Confederate flag represents a desire to maintain a way of life steeped in
jonnnney
Or... you could use the flag you want to use and butthurt hippies on the internet can go fuck themselves?
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
And the rest of the world will look down on you as ignorant bigoted hicks.
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
feudalism that included slavery. Nothing they fought for was good and the end result of their loss was abolition. And to the slaves, and
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
their descendants, the flag represents only the people who fought to deny them their freedom. It will never, and should never, represent any
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
thing else. If these folks can't see the problem with that, then they are racists.
beanblanket
Then why choose that flag as a symbol?
CheshireCad
It was a random battle flag, that someone at some point said, "Hey, that's neato. Lemmie put it on my truck." Doesn't have to make sense.
beanblanket
Hundreds of thousands of backwater rednecks chose to associate themselves with a symbol of racism because it looks 'neato'. Naive argument..
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
Right? Why not ones own state flag?
jonnnney
There is not a single state flag for the entire south
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
Do really need to rep the entire south? If you're from Texas why do you give a fuck about the pride of Florida?
ScrooblyDoobles
Be prepared for a lot of feels if you watch it.
bringbakfirefly
One of my favorites stand-ups.
StonedLikeACheatingMuslimWoman
Yeah I specifically put on some stand up to zone out and laugh, got a feel trip I didn't sign a permission trip for instead.
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
Could have used this warning before going into it the other day. I appreciated it but it somewhat sent me into a weird space for a while.
TheKerfuffle
I really like this in stand up. Like in mike birbiglia's My girlfriend's boyfriend. It's good to see people taking their shows seriously.
tarataqa
I like my comedy srsly.
ScrooblyDoobles
Totally, and I love mike birbiglia, such a good story teller.

In what way? If you can explain without giving away the guys stories.

3 mics: one is 1 liners, one is conventional stand up, one is emotional stuff. The emotional stuff gets fucking real. Some did for me anyway
thehungryguy
half good comedy, half going into his past and talking about depression. Its good though, check it out
ScrooblyDoobles
Goes into his past and current struggles as a person.
tarataqa
just watch it.
pk46n2
It's called 3 mics, each mic he stands at has a different mood, so he discusses some serious shit from his past at some points.
dogsunpizza
one for quick jokes, one for sad jokes, one for stand up jokes

ArcaneAlchemist
it's called the confederate flag for a reason. it was used by the confederate army, the majority of which were a bunch of racist slavers.
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
Nothing the Confederates did was good. They wanted to persevere a way of life steeped in feudalism that included slavery. Fuck em.
miados
you mean my dukes of hazard flag?
CheshireCad
Thank you. I'm pretty sure there's more Dukes of Hazard fans alive today than there are Confederate loyalists.
thehungryguy
and the swastika was a symbol for peace, until it was misused by racists
ZeroLogain
Peace or destruction, depending on direction, age, particular religion being referenced. One way life reverse the arms death.
SquirtleSquad420
When did any iteration of the confederate or rebel flag stand for peace?
IProvideFakeContext
They had a pure white one that did some good in bringing peace.
IconicNebula
I don't think people know the difference between the confederate flag and the rebel flag the soldiers made for themselves
IProvideFakeContext
Enlighten us.
ArchAzazel
The confederate flag people wave is most commonly the Northern Virginia Army flag, good ol Robert E Lees army. That flag never became (1
ArchAzazel
The official confederate flag. They actually went through 3 iterations, and while some look close to the Rebel Flag, (2
ArchAzazel
They are all different. Look up the Stars and Bars, the Stainless Banner, and the Blood-stained Banner. All official flags confederate flags
IconicNebula
Google confederate states of America. That's the confederate flag. Look up rebel flag. That was made by soldiers in the conflict.
IProvideFakeContext
Seems the rebel flag was eventually incorporated into the official Confederate flag. So, like, what's the difference?
IconicNebula
It wasn't. Your looking at the wrong flag or got bad eyes
SexyDoughnuts
Events change the meaning/perception behind symbols. Yeah the confederate flag's history is deeper than that. But since it (1/2)
SexyDoughnuts
was and still continues to be used by racists that is what it means now (2/2)
EdgarandAnnabelle
You're saying the study of history is irrelevant because of its use today. Thats just ignorant

EdgarandAnnabelle
Holy fuck. I cant believe how many of you didn't pay attention in American history. Do a fucking wikipedia search. It was a battle flag.
EdgarandAnnabelle
soooo... ignore and shame all Buddhist temples because of reverse swastikas and ignore its original meaning?
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
others. As someone from lower Alabama, it never had good connotations, and if it continues to be used as it is now, it never will.
rapetron4000
Eyyy am also from Alabama! Birmingham in the house
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Swastika was usurped by the Nazis. The confederate flag was and always has been used by people who think their race is superior to all
EdgarandAnnabelle
But it isn't and wasn't. Do your research. The confederate flag was "usurped" by racists, hence its misuse today.
