Most of those people booing consider themselves "Liberal" and I'm not a huge fan of Elon but I like the fact that he's exposing dirty laundry of our quasi-open enemy. I don't really like labels because I think they promote "cult" mentality as opposed to being critical thinkers but I guarantee that overwhelming majority of those people conform to a way of thinking. I haven't overlooked the hypocrisy by Elon that had him suspend Ye's twitter account when he restored accounts of known white nationalists and supremacists and he has allowed racist people such as Jim Goad...who's always writing about Kanye and dissing Black people on twitter. I don't dig the subtle racism on twitter to keep it a Google but I'm in favor of all our enemies getting exposed. Remember what Hiawatha Kamene said about "allies" an ally is only your friend until the deed is done then after you go back to what you were before being allies and I don't see the point in splitting hairs between two different types of racists.

First thing, why was Elon even invited to be a part of his show in the first place? Is Chappelle friends with Elon or something? I never would have saw that coming to be honest. Can't see many people these days wanting to hang with Elon.
Probably, I mean we have seen Dave Chappelle be interviewed by Joe Rogan and I don't think it's weird because many Black people don't look at "race" when deciding friends. We are a minority when it comes to understanding the importance of Black Solidarity and people generally don't see Elon as a racist or even being connected to Apartheid despite who his father was. All I have seen over the last year was the democrats go from loving Elon to the republicans loving Elon but that boo had more to do with their perceived political affiliation. When we consider that conservatives have a different take on Trans than the liberals do then it does make sense because Elon has echoed similar sentiments. The other part is the same people who have been slamming Elon are the same people who were slamming chappelle for his stance and take on Transgenders. I don't think that means he's aligned with Elon necessarily but it's common for us to assume the "Enemy of my Enemy is my friend". Just to offer some perspective.
