They don’t have much in common besides being just awful, bigoted, and black Americans. Chappelle has far more in common with Ricky Gervais and J.K. Rowling in his awfulness while Thomas is more like Samuel Alito, Brett Kavenaugh, and Rudy Giuliani (who is himself the most knockoff possible version of Roy Cohn).

Except one is a useless celebrity that can be ignored into irrelevance, and the other is a Supreme Court justice with the direct ability to aid in destroying our democracy.

Chappelle's shitty politics really disappointed me as I became aware of them.

A Supreme Court Justice who has solicited and accepted many bribes but will never be held accountable because Republicans have no shame and would never hold one of their own accountable as long as they continue to be useful to the party.

SCOTUS judge who has some blatantly terrible ethics.

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking Chappelle has turned into a washed up celeb who has to cater to the right for a paycheck.
