Chris Rock's Outraged Netflix Comedy, Will Smith's Outrageous Slap--and Me

How'd I get to be part of Chris Rock's Netflix comedy special--and what I think about it.

Selective outrage is all the rage. You mustn’t cancel Kanye’s tweets but banning books is okay. You mustn’t allow political corruption, but letting George Santos into Congress is okay. You mustn’t eat chicken but trout is okay.

That’s the point of Chris Rock’s new Netflix comedy special, Selective Outrage, which was broadcast live on Saturday, March 4 and which I was part of as a guest on the Aftershow. We pick and choose what we’re outraged about as if selecting from a cold and congealed buffet of trigger points.

How’d I get there and what does it personally mean to me?
