Nah they definitely took the L. Comics tend to have a tight knit community. Others will refuse to perform at this club because of this stance.
I guarantee you the number of comedy shows First Avenue hosts in a given year is in the single digits anyway

edit: they have 77 shows on their calendar for august and zero of them are stand-up comedy

Because people today have skin so thin that a strong breeze would rip them apart.
Is it thin skin, or that his jokes come at a time when GOP legislators across the country are pushing laws that would punish trans people for their existence?

Word. Then yeah idk why he'd do a show there anyway. Venue is important for large comedy shows. If the place isn't part of the comedy scene itd probably be mid.

Its not the type of venue he would normally perform at and he likely only wanted to because of its history (being featured in Purple Rain, etc)

its like a personal slap in the face to him

He's gonna have to embrace being a Republican hate puppet soon lol. He's stepping on his more compassionate fanbase. He definitely lost me and a lot of people I know through how shitty The Closer was as a comedy special. I miss him not being a whiney comedian who can't stop talking about trans people just because they all don't blindly love him. He just comes off controlled by how sensitive he is to not being loved now. So sensitive he went and became TERF over it

Ha ha ha

I guess we now live in a reality where a DeathSantis / Chappelle ticket is not an impossibility.

Just because you find his bits offensive, which is perfectly fine, doesn't make them so.

Whether they're offensive or not (although I don't know why'd you'd claim that uttering a hateful slur isn't offensive) is not my main concern. It's that continuing with this anti-trans rhetoric, even if it's meant as comedy, emboldens bigots. Do you deny that?

From the sound of it, the venue he was originally suppose to be at got canceled because most of the workers weren't going to be there to help, you know because out of protest. Was probably the best decision to make.

The show was also booked with only like, two days notice. Pretty shitty thing to do to the staff.
