It's not even funny. It's just offensive and promotes transphobia.

When was the last time a comedy special got this much attention?

That's why.

To Netflix,

Apparently threads that reach 500 posts on some of our holdings are seen as the high point of the user experience. This divisive special has created many.

Sincerely,

Jokes just temper people to take the issue less seriously when it suits them. Imagine getting so sick of the saturation you just start thinking "who gives a shit" when the topic is brought up.

In some ways it's a peacemaking tactic, I guess?

This only works when you close your eyes to all the people who do self deprecating humor but still have compassion for others.

Why is he now making jokes about transgender people instead of white cis males? This isnt the way its supposed to be.

I do, but I don't see how that is any relevant to Dave Chappelle and his transphobic takes.

I mean he does make fun of white males, they just choose to call themselves women.

Because every time someone complains about it a dozen people watch it to see what was so bad. Most will laugh and move on with their life, some will get outraged and complain about it on the internet repeating the the cycle.

  1. Netflix is making money
  2. Chappelle always brings ratings. This isn't the first time we have seen these exact topics, it's literally how he started off the Netflix deal


Honestly though even ignoring the transphobic stuff, Chappelle just doesn't hit the same as he did more than a decade ago. I no longer see any appeal.

Which is funny cause the protesters at the Netflix HQ were violently slamming people's heads into concrete. But it was mostly a peaceful protest.

I just finished watching it. I dont see why this special would cause any controversy. He didnt really say anything bad or hateful. If anything he made it clear that he repeats trans people and what theyre going through. What exactly pissed people off about it?

Trannies are a group of bullies looking to pick a fight with everyone. Suck the girl dick, bigot.

Had a really heartfelt closing though.

I could tell the haters didn't really listen.

Not believing trannies are actually real women is a very popular view shared by the majority of people in the world.

They paid $24 million for it. It was already burning a hole in their pocket and removing it would just make matters worse.
