Urgent:Matt Rife Rushed to the Hospital in a Critical Condition Due to a joke he made about domestic violence in his most recent Netflix comedy special—and a joke he made in response to the criticism—stand-up comedian Matt Rife, who is well-known for his viral TikTok videos and his sizable female fan base, is receiving some backlash on social media. Paraphrase In an apparent reference to spousal abuse, Rife began his November 15 Netflix special, "Natural Selection," with a narrative about a hostess who had a "complete black eye" at a "ratchet" restaurant in Baltimore. Rife said that it was "very evident what happened." The punchline, "If she could cook, she would not have that black eye," was added after Rife went on to argue that the restaurant "should put her in the kitchen or somewhere where nobody has to see her face." People on social media, especially women, were disappointed and frustrated by Rife's jokes about domestic abuse. Drew Afualo, an influencer and fellow TikToker, said in a video that she was not shocked to hear Rife's sexist joke but questioned why the comic would jeopardize his female fan base. Paraphrase
