Then also when he said, I think that maybe if the slaves had some baby oil and booty shorts, they mightve been freed sooner.

That's the dumbest shit I've heard all year, and that's saying a lot.

The point hes making is understandable but since it doesnt clearly fall into any of the compartments that we, as a society, have created for ourselves it becomes controversial.

If he had been trying to make a bit on intersectionality, he failed the moment he decided that he would mock the bodies of trans people while hiding behind the friend he tokenized. If that was his purpose, then the piece is an unambiguous failure of comedic writing.

In the end, all he managed to effectively present was petty envy of LGBT+ people's efficacious push for civil rights, as if a black trans woman wasn't the root of Pride.
