Jon Stewart Defends Dave Chappelle’s ‘SNL’ Monologue: ‘Censorship’ Doesn’t End Antisemitism

“Everybody calls me like, ‘You see Dave on SNL?’ And I say yes, we’re very good friends. I always watch and send nice texts,” Stewart began. “‘He normalized antisemitism with the monologue.’ I don’t know if you’ve been on comment sections on most news articles, but it’s pretty normal. It’s incredibly normal. But the one thing I will say is I don’t believe that censorship and penalties are the way to end antisemitism or to gain understanding. I don’t believe in that.

Both comedians, Chappelle and Stewart have been friends for many years. The pair costarred in the 1998 comedy “Half Baked” and performed shows together through the COVID-19 pandemic. Stewart was also present during Chappelle’s May show in Los Angeles in which the comedian was attacked onstage.

I agree with Jon that we need to understand each other and have conversations to promote better dialogue and resolution. I wish he had said he was doing this difficult work with his friend Chappelle instead of blithely suggesting it was NBD

Stewart said “He normalized antisemitism with the monologue”

With or without censorship, such topics will always be discussed. But on a censorship-free platform like Solcial, users can breathe more freely.

Long ago, TheJews were enslaved in Egypt, Africa later 6 mil killed in Holocaust. Jews are tough resilient people instrumental in starting Hollywood good for Jews-Hollywood is national treasure. Jews influential in many fields-work hard, value education. contribute greatly

THANK YOU jonstewart 👏🏾 Because the ADL been moving like they the Mafia. They’re putting anyone they deem antisemitic thru a social and financial holocaust and that’s no better.

I totally get it..I was there...I pray his final words weren't directed at TheJews
