Pete Davidson under fire for explicit ‘joke’ about Charlie Kirk at Netflix roast

Comedian Pete Davidson is under fire for making an explicit “joke” about Charlie Kirk.

Netflix’s “The Roast of Kevin Hart” went off the rails when Davidson decided to make a dig at Charlie Kirk’s killing in arguably the most tasteless way possible. The moment started when Davidson was taking jabsat Tony Hinchcliffe, whom he said looks like a “child molester.”

Watch:

Pete Davidson made a Charlie Kirk joke toward Tony Hinchcliffe and calls Ye a ‘gay Nazi’ during Kevin Hart’s roast.

“Tony reminds me of Charlie Kirk, and that’s he’s definitely been on camera letting a guy unload in his throat. Oh you don’t know me? yeah ‘Kill Tony.’ Please… pic.twitter.com/JGmZMX2AAk

“Tony Hinchcliffe is here, looking like both a child molester and the doll they give the child to show where he touched them,” he said. “Tony reminds me of Charlie Kirk in that he’s definitely been on camera letting a guy unload in his throat.”

The disgusted reaction in the room made it clear the “joke” wasn’t appreciated, but Davidson soldiered on.

“Oh, you don’t know me?” he asked, as if the nature of what he said could somehow be justified by the fact that he tends to make such comments.

“Kill Tony, please. Someone f**king kill Tony,” he continued. “Tony, nothing you say tonight will hurt my feelings. I was in a beef with Kanye, so I’ve taken shots from better gay Nazis.”

Needless to say, this didn’t go over well on X:

This is about as all Pete is good for career wise….Showing up at no name roasts. Joking about people who have been murdered is about as low as it gets. Karma is a bitch……

Pete is deranged. He made jokes about his father being killed on 9-11 too.

A lot of people can’t get noticed unless they say truly horrific things…

Ironically Charlie’s career and businesses are still more successful than Pete Davidson, so there’s that

What is wrong with these people. I cut comedy a lot of slack. This is just sick and stupid. Not even remotely funny. Is Davidson whacked out of his mind in drugs? I just don’t get it, so cruel.

There’s roasting, and then there’s using a roast to take a cheap political shot. Davidson chose the latter, and the media pretends it’s brave.
