Pretty sure that was because Comedy Central was trying to underpay him.

These Dave conversations just get the worst people involved lol. Anyone with half a brain should probably check out before they lose the remaining half. I already see both sides being dumb within 10 posts lol. Not you TC, the responses. I respect the damage control

This is a good thing tbh. I dont think Dave meant any malicious harm, and I think talking to and learning about who and what the trans community is will help. Instead of one side repeatedly yelling at him and him just making jokes about it, trying to gain an understanding so he knows better, but also they know where hes coming from with the jokes is how it should be.

Is he open to listening to what trans people as a whole have to say or is he going to let a singular trans person affirm his beliefs again?

Comedian Dave Chappelles representatives have said hes willing to talk to Netflix employees angered by his comedy special, The Closer.

Dave stands by his art: No more jokes about transgenders until we can all laugh together, an unidentified representative told TMZ. The streets are talking and Dave is listening. At some point, when everyone is open, Im sure the communities will come together.

Also, for all the people saying omg its just a joke get over it!!the reason its hard for groups like this to just see it as a simple joke is because there are real assholes out there who hate them and try to keep them down for no reason. Then stuff like this just gives them fuel. If you want this to stop blame those assholes, not the ones who are constantly having to defend themselves just for being who they are.

honestly, he shouldn't even give them the time of day since he told way worse jokes in his own special like kids raped by priests and how random black on asian attacks felt like what was happening inside his own body with the coronavirus but apparently you can't build a community around those because they don't fit the narrative

What, why? It would be a great discussion.
You have people like the American who identifys as a racist ass Korean. We have people now saying they are black when clearly they are white.

No one needs to have a talk with that side.

That's not a good reason to try and silence him. Those violent people should be punished for their violence. Unless Dave is specifically saying to go assault ppl, he's not responsible for how evil people behave.
He's adding his voice to a large, hateful crowd. A particularly loud voice at that. Just because it's not explicit calls for violence doesn't mean it doesn't have an impact, and it doesn't mean people shouldn't be careful about what they say.

He didn't do anything wrong, so the idea that he should "know better" is really stupid.

When you're a celebrity with as much influence as him, you gotta be careful with your words.

He might not be telling people to go out and assault trans people, but he could inadvertently end up reinforcing toxic beliefs about trans people that result in hate crimes.

Chris Rock had the same issue when racist white people would keep repeating his "black people and n-words" skit.

How does that work exactly? What thoughts and beliefs do trans people share "as a whole"?

That's irrelevant. That's not his fault that bad people exist. It's more wrong of you to say he should be silenced because of unrelated people then it is for him to have his special.

Those bad people should be punished when they do bad things. They're not Dave's responsibility.
It's literally "fine people on both sides" rhetoric. You're validating their hatred.
