Both writers are very familiar with cancel culture.

Stone took time to comment on the Netflix controversy involving Dave Chappelle

He believes that creative people in Hollywood support Netflix’s decision to back Chappelle.

Stone said “I think Netflix’s reputation…went way, way up.”

[{"selector":"#anim-aadc9fe9-c26b-400b-a61f-ec6c84fc930f","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

He later admitted that he cannot provide any proof of his statement.

Chappelle still has not provided a formal apology for his divisive comments.

Instead, he took a swing at fellow Netflix comedian Hannah Gadsby.
