      He went from being universally praised, called the best to ever do it, called a genius, to being asked to reevaluate one aspect of his act and it completely broke his brain. He couldn't stand that people didn't continue accepting every single word that came out of his mouth as brilliant. His ego won't allow him to actually think about what people are telling him, he feels like he has to explain it to us because he thinks we're just not getting it.

      Sometimes I do self-crit because lots of comedians are or have been transphobic, and I can still laugh at Norm MacDonald. I wonder if it is racism that make Chapelle the most hated target. Then I remember everything Norm did still qualifies as jokes, albeit horrible ones, Chapelle is just stating his hatred. John Cleese is just a fossil, he doesn't do anything but cameos and interviews between grieving his quickly dying friends, but Chapelle is still influential and doing his best to spread transphobia. That's why I just want the other old guys to shut up or die, but want bad awful things to happen to Chapelle, and can never watch his bits.
