There's a difference between making mean jokes just as jokes, and making mean jokes about a group you hate and discriminate against. He's doing the latter, which is wrong.

Not that transphobes will understand the difference. Either way though, it's a problem to be making mean jokes against a vulnerable minority group that is being actively legislated out of existence in multiple countries.

It's not just mean-spirited, he just won't let this shit go. The set he got jumped at had 20 minutes of "I just don't get trans" material, and I don't want to hear a comedian's non-jokey two cents of anything for that long. It's the definition of rent free.

Can't forget that like 3 times now he's said he won't talk about us again. And then he does it again. And again. The guy isn't just obsessed, he's making a show of being in denial about it.

$50 says that at least 5 of his last 20 Google searches were some variant of transgender porn.

Orjust a thoughthe enjoys the attention he gets from the over-the-top reaction from people that dont like or cant take his jokes and is using the platform it gives him to fight against what he sees as problematic censoring of his art by people that want the world to cater to them.

He's pretty clearly buttmad, he insulted a class of seniors at high old high school because he's obviously insecure as hell in general. He's not a troll, Trump wasn't doing 5D chess, etc.

I was a Chapelle fan for many years until last year with that special. I really hoped he'd learn something from all of this but all he does is double and triple down.

I just can't with him anymore.

You have a right to think you're funny. Doesn't make you actually funny.

If people don't like your joke, then it doesn't mean you're being censored or cancelled. Chapelle is a whiny bitch for acting like it is.

His trans jokes are like if his black jokes were that black people are stupid and ugly.

"He make fun everyone" is such a bad argument.

It's like if a well-respected musician recorded a three minute fart and released it as a new song. And then they accused everyone of censoring them for saying it sucks and all their fans got defensive and claimed the haters just don't get music. "Either all music is ok or none of it is."

This also cannot be stressed enough.....being offensive is not the point of comedy. Someone being offended is a side effect of a particular person or group of people taking the joke too seriously. The only comedians that write jokes with the intent of "Oh, I'm gonna piss SO many people off!" are bad ones.

The only reason people have got this all fucked up is because alt-right chuds and washed up comedians that have nothing going for them but shock value wanted to cover up genuine dickery and lame ass humor with the facade of comedic value. They're the same people that think shouting the N-word near black people is hilarious.

It's why his jokes about black people land and his trans jokes don't land nearly as well. Butthurt and/or spiteful comedy is never actually funny.

Sure, but there's a difference between poking fun at someone and going "This group is being mean to me, so I'm going to write a 40 minute comedy show being deliberately insulting"

You have to be high to think Dave Chappelle ever mocked black people.

Weird how people who agree with his trans "jokes" (How can you agree with something that supposedly means nothing) are retconning Dave's old material to justify what he's doing now. Kinda scary that they were laughing at the wrong part of his old material.

Reminds me how people say GTA makes fun of everything, but can't name an instance where the games mock race, sex, gender, orientation, disability, etc.

Why is he in such trouble for anti trans jokes? He speaks offensive things about many types of people.

It's one thing to poke fun at people. But when you have people being actively attacked and killed because of it, and you know you are feeding an audience who now comes to your shows just because you fuel that hate, then it becomes a problem.

The guy is selling tickets to people who if I was to walk by them, would have no issue killing me if they knew they could get away with it.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

No. You can't because it never happened. GTA mocks politics and societal issues, but Rockstar is never just like "White people are really fucking stupid m I rite? Women huh?"

George Carlin would hit different if all the people who tout him as a time when "You could mock everyone" had to actually listen to him right now. And that isn't me claiming him for "SJWs" or anything. He just clearly wasn't some lame insult comic who offended everyone for cheap giggles. He had a worldview he shared and he did not mercilessly punch down.

Of course mods are fans of Dave, explains a lot about how rare it is for anti trans posts to get modded. Never the case with anything that could be radically twisted to be misinterpreted as anti white, though.

I've seen people intentionally misgender other users for dozens of posts before they finally get them deleted. Warning at most even for that guy not long ago who misgendered a character and doubled down when shown proof that the girl is trans AND then he went back to troll on his alt and only got a warning on that account.

Why would bigots try to kill trans people? You'd have to ask the bigots but I know they're attacking us and it's really bad in some parts of the country.
