Turns out, Chris Rock is still really angry at Will and Jada Pinkett Smith.
It was a dramatic end to a standup special that often felt less groundbreaking than the hype surrounding it suggested. For an hour, Rock held forth on an array of topics, some of which felt like they could have come from a special years ago – including jokes about the Kardashians, O.J. Simpson and Meghan Markle.
Parts of the special seemed calibrated to tweak stereotypically liberal sensibilities, with Rock insisting,"Anybody that says 'Words hurt,' has never been punched in the face." And jokes about how a"woke trap" works; if"somebody wants your job, they just wait for you to say some dumb s---."
