Well if you mean "Who is pouring stuff on trans peoples' heads" what you're really asking is...

He went on to say they're white and use white privilege. He said this after mentioning a white lady who called the cops on him. And he finished the special saying LGBT people need to stop punching down on his people. The story was about a gay white man calling the police. And I'm pretty sure the "punching down on my people" line was about comedians, not black people. Since he had just finished saying that he considered his transgender friend to be a part of his tribe(comedians) not theirs. Seems like you're the one drawing inferences that aren't there and pretty poorly remembering the special you're being so highly critical of. --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle ...

Can I save all this and reference it later? It's really good. Agreed. Like I said before, he's made some really funny trans jokes. The ones in this special felt like he was feeling the heat from the last few specials and the jokes are noticeably more bitter this time around, which is never a good look for comedy. --- I have nothing else to say ...

This is Daves point. Who is doing something similar to this to trans people? Youre equating stand up to Jim Crow, and you see nothing wrong with that. https://www.hrc.org/news/new-study-reveals-shocking-rates-of-attempted-suicide-among-trans-adolescen https://www.forbes.com/sites/dawnstaceyennis/2021/05/19/terrible-time-for-trans-youth-new-survey-spotlights-suicide-spike---and-hope/?sh=4ec2cc2f716e Yeah, they're only being harassed and bullied into suicide at a far higher rate than other people in the same age groups. Are you asserting that because there aren't more stories of transgender people being banned from restaurants that they aren't facing massive discrimination in other ways? FFS people don't want them to be able to use either bathroom and there's legislation in place to force them to have their genitals inspected.

Exactly. You realize you're talking to a black man right now. I fully understand what's happened to black people in this country and I don't need you to tell me. But I think we should keep that same energy for all marginalized groups rather than trivializing their problems.

As I said earlier, you don't have to like the joke. But the intention of the joke was pretty clearly not to be negative or hateful.Intent does not negate harm. If Jim Bobford drives drunk from the bar, he's just intending to get home. He never intended to swerve and hit a family that was walking home from the bus stop. But just because he didn't intend to hurt anyone doesn't mean he didn't. And that's the thing. No, maybe Chappelle isn't physically hurting people. But he's saying the same bigoted stuff that people saying we should be banned from public do. He's not trans, so there's nothing tongue in cheek about him saying trans people are freaks and have fake vaginas. There's no irony. For fucks sakes, Chappelle didn't show up to any of her memorial services and there were 3. One proper funeral, then one large one on each coast. He never reached out to the family following her death. He's not a friend. But he sure as hell will use her as his "I'm no bigot, I have a trans friend who is a woman but I call a man" punching bag. --- tfw no big tiddy goth vampire gf who lactates blood - viewmaster_pi ...
