15 Twitter Reactions To Chris Rock’s ‘Selective Outrage’ Netflix Special

March 5, 2023

Chris Rock - Selective Outrage - Netflix Live Stand-up special

On Saturday night, Chris Rock made history as the first artist to perform live on Netflix for the company’s first-ever live, global streaming event.

The one-hour comedy special was the legendary comedian’s second stand-up special with the streamer and he talked about a number of topics including racism, Meghan Markle, being a father and raising rich spoiled kids, the Kardashians, dating, and being single.

But, in true Chris Rock fashion, he also talked about hot-button issues like abortion and he addressed the infamous Oscars slap, Will Smith, and Jada Pinkett Smith.

To say Chris didn’t mince words is an understatement.

The streets of Twitter are buzzing about the special as people react to the stand-up special and share their opinions on it.

It’s a pretty mixed bag of reactions and you can clearly tell the objective criticisms and praises from the biased ones.

Remember Chris Rock punched down on Jada over her alopecia condition. All the deflecting he is doing bringing up entanglements is gaslighting. He knows that the world hates a Black woman with sexual agency, so he has to make that the topic, not how he violated and humiliated her. pic.twitter.com/wYDyVYVHeu

Chris Rock chose to do his standup in my hometown of Baltimore – a city where he has absolutely no connections – when he could’ve easily sold out in his hometown of NYC.

Baltimore is also Jada Pinkett Smiths hometown!

Ya’ll keep thinking it’s just jokes. 😐#ChrisRock

Someone call the police. Chris Rock just killed Will Smith onstage: ‘Everybody called him a bitch…but he chose to hit me. But my momma raised me: You don’t fight in front of white people’ *mic drop* It was fantastic! pic.twitter.com/eA4YoDuAPd

If Will Smith slap Chris Rock again for this standup special… it is what it is 🤷🏾‍♂️ I can’t stand you gaslighting MFs that throw rocks and then hide your hands when folks come looking for you.

Chris Rock can go to h*ll for that Michael Jackson joke too. In 2023, he’s still attacking MJ with lies to appease his far-right racist audience.

Like most comedians I’m continuously grateful for the existence of Chris Rock. Thank you comedy gods. @chrisrock @NetflixIsAJoke

Chris Rock makes comedy for white people who have a Black friend.

The most Chris Rock thing about all of this is him screaming that you don’t fight in front of white people but not even considering what it means to make jokes about a BW and her hair in front of white people

Will Smith got it tonight from Chris, but Jada got it way worst and may I say deservedly so. Yes. Deservedly so.

Chris got his Therapy tonight. Saw tears swelling up in his eyes after and I could tell this man has been hurting. #ChrisRock #Selectiveoutrage
