....we really comparing white people struggle to trans struggle? Lol. White people aren't currently establishing themselves. Pretty sure you (and half of me) did that when we killed all the Native Americans so we could be the only ones established. I mean, if you want them to get down how white people did to establish themselves, the guy rushing Dave Chappelle is right on the money.

I don't support it tho.

The beating by security reminds me of that episode of the Simspons where Homer crashed the stage of a U2 concert and Bono let him talk for a bit. Then had security drag him off and says "don't worry folks, he's going to get the help he needs." and the big video screen behind him shows security just beating the brakes off of Homer backstage lmao

His last comedy special literally had a joke about how he didn't care about white people dying from prescription drug overdoses, and nobody minded. I don't recall his terfdom ever making fun of any trans people dying. If anything, compared to how he's handled other groups of people, even other marginalized groups of people, he never came off as comparatively vicious towards trans people to me.

I don't agree with people attacking comedians because they're offended at a joke, but there is a difference between punching up and punching down when it comes to jokes.

Is there information that makes this debatably about Dave Chappelle being black and not because he's a comedian or because his stances on things?

I keep seeing people mention " against black men", but besides that, it doesn't seem about race.

I'm not downplaying the poor treatment of the black community in America. Im just curious if there's any actual indication that this is that.

He's a comedian with a platform that mocked people that died from overdoses. That's punching down no matter how you look at it. The only difference is that apparently some kind of punching down is okay while other kinds are not to some people, and Chapelle's terf jokes aren't remotely close to the only kinds of "punching down" humor that he's used throughout his career.

Punching down as a negative has only become a talking point whenever a group is deemed as un-mockable.

Do you have any proof otherwise? He seems pretty hateful to me.

The proof is his stand-up specials.

If anything he's jealous that trans-people didn't have to take the same steps other minorities have had to go through. Get better comprehension skills.

What? You mean the murder, rape, and other acts of violence forced upon them? The fact that they can still be denied jobs or housing just for being trans? The seething hatred people have for them?

Even IF there was a valid point to be made that trans people had to struggle less than other minorities, it would be INCREDIBLY callous to be anything but genuinely fucking happy for them not needing to suffer as you and yours did.

Don't read my post and think I'm saying the trans community hasn't suffered. Don't put words in my mouth.

Keep getting angry because you guys can't comprehend a word Dave's saying. Again, watch his specials and actually listen to what he's saying. He doesn't hate the trans community.

He's probably one of those people who thinks getting "internet points" for being trans somehow transfer to real life privilege, but that's not even remotely true. Those people on the internet are a vocal minority and have no actual power... the real situation is more like this:

Often, this even comes from a trans person's own family. We're at the fringe of society, and in reality, we have only a small amount of people on our side... and the people on our side has very little power. Just look at the laws being passed around the country, like trying to keep trans people off of hormones until they TWENTY FIVE. Transitioning gets far better results the younger you start, and if the person in question even makes it to that age, it may be too late to ever make real strides at having a better life.

Dave also uses language to differentiate trans people from black people when one of the most victimized groups of people out there are black trans girls & women.

also, it's bullshit to say that they don't have to take the same steps as other minority groups when they're the ones who have to fight the most for acceptance and recognition, even with LGB people.

Mmhm. It's one of those things that makes me kind of think to myself (and have to really get myself to stop doing) that I'm not who I am. It's in the language I use at times (referring to trans people with a blanket plural they rather than including myself with us.)

What good can it do to me at 31? Maybe it's just my way to try for attention? Whatever the negative thought of the day is....

"I already deal with chronic depression so just having this be one of several reasons isn't that big a deal" etc.

But goddamnit, when I see people fellating hate like this it makes me actually feel the need to be more out about who I am so this shit doesn't keep others from feeling like absolute trash over being trans.

Also I'd feel sick if I just laid down and submitted to people like Chapelle and his goon squad.

I can personally say that transitioning may perhaps be the most rewarding thing i've ever done, but I started when I was 18 and i've been more fortunate (in regards to transitioning) than many other trans people... I "pass" very well and have had many different men IRL (despite historically not leaving my house much) hit on me, and i've had a mostly supportive family experience. A lot of trans people don't get that lucky.

That being said... you do you. If you feel strongly enough about wanting to transition, you should pursue it no matter what, but if you're uncertain, you need to weigh the pros and the cons... there's often more cons, but many of them are society's fault.

The guy could come out, never tell a single trans joke again and make a foundation that helps all trans kids everywhere and y'all would still vilify him because you guys think he's transphobic because of a couple jokes he told. Yeah, he should have never said "must have been a trans male" or whatever he said after he got jumped, but to say he's transphobic because of his specials means you obviously failed English during comprehension day.
