    "Everybody out there that's watching, everybody that's watching this world? This world is bullshit. You shouldn’t model your life about what you think that we think is cool and what we’re wearing and what we’re saying and everything." - Fiona Apple.

    Comics had give through a lot of cancellations and were starting to pull together. So, when Chappelle started being anti-trans, the comedy community was already primed to fight back.

    Also, Chappelle seems like a generous comedian in bringing people up. So, he probably has deep roots in the comedy community.
