It's ironic this is the way he's choosing to go into hiatus again because of the way he walked off Comedy Central for similar issues regarding racist jokes. I feel like he hasn't afforded similar sympathy to another marginalized group, which is odd, because I thought he could be much more understanding.
Part of why he walked away from chappelle show was being asked to wear a dress too
WHICH makes this make sense
The term terf has lost all meaning anyway. If you regurgitate post modern Judith Butler talking points about performance and aesthetics you’re labeled a terf. People that aren’t even feminists are called terfs. I knew it was a dead term when a conservative anti feminist like Jordan Peterson was labeled one. Overall though this conversation has run its course. If you like the special, enjoy it. If you don’t, ignore it. End!

It's my problem
They can disagree with Jk Rowling and say she's wrong that's fair enough no doubt theres s lot of ignorance out there but her thoughts that got labelled her a terf and therefore worthy of extreme hate and death threats seemed pretty heartfelt and not from a place of hate from what I saw. Thoughts that prob a lot of women her age (and not necessarily her age tbh) would share if we're being real.

JK Rowling is definitely accurately labeled a terf. Sure there’s some more nuance there with her views then is being discussed but she’s for sure appropriately called that.

the point

Oh yes she accurately called that but is TERF solely a hate group or a bunch of senile women upset that trans people didn’t experience suffering and periods, birth they did so can’t be in their minds ever considered a woman . The same way some would judge someone whose family never saw slavery. It becomes are you United in culture by suffering ( Israel Palestine) or divided by it and repeat cycles so trans women speak over women and vice versa .
All the Woke Wars aside
I tried watching the new one and it being revolved around LBGTQ s*** got kinda boring after 30 mins straight although I’ll come back to for sure
Vs. I was scrolling thru his old ones and his first one after the absence in LA started auto playing and it flowed so much smoother bc he was bouncing from random life topic to random life topic.
Like the Space J*ws joke, that shoulda been a whole 10 minute run of him talking about aliens lol instead of sacrificing the topic to piss people off
Regardless of whether or not his intentions are bad with the trans/gay jokes and the whole convo about comedy and freedom of expression, he lets them “win” regardless by revolving his whole routine around them lowkey at the sacrifice of quality
That’s how I feel too. S*** just wasn’t that funny. It’s Chappelle so you know there’s gonna be pockets during the special where he’s in his groove but overall it was like ehhh even if I can see what you’re going for it just wasn’t as funny as your other s***
Feel these comedians get old and they just do s*** to be like "whoa omg the hate mob is after me"
Like this was modern Ricky Gervais level of cringe and just desire to want to feel like you're being edgy. Truly washed.

Oh yeah you 100% true it seemed like he was grieving daphne combined with just taking in all the news and that all of the news genuinely got him some what depressed
Whole lot of tweets about solidarity but back it up donate to gender reassignment surgeries, donate to mutual aids , volunteer do something s*** I do all year anyone who cares about topics should . Do more than just pay taxes and complain on the internet
Not to be a d*** but how do you know how people spend their money and time based on what their complaints on the internet? People can complain about issues of a cause and support the cause with money and time. Do you just want people to be quiet or something?
Like during BLM people were complaining od online and rightfully so but also participating in mutual aid, food drives, etc.
What are you getting at?
Man it's difficult to see this as anything other than Dave using a dead trans woman who he knew as a shield from criticism, this is really bad

It’s really easy not to do that. You just have to be a sane person.
''everybody gets mad because i say these JOKES, but you gotta understand that this is the best time to say them. more now then ever. and i know theres some comedians in the back. mf you have a responsibilty to speak reckless. otherwise my kids may never know what reckless talk sounds like. the joys of being wrong. I DIDNT COME HERE TO BE RIGHT, I JUST CAME HERE TO F*** AROUND.''

He’s right. Most of this wouldn’t be funny if there weren’t an atmosphere of people declaring it’s not for x, y, and z reasons. It’s the reason a podcast like CumTown is so successful.
This is bs lol
Firstly Daphne died in October and Chapelle special she was mentioned in came out at the end of August so not exactly a week later
Instead of actually being levelheaded about it it's clear she's using it to blame Chappelle regardless of any pretense so that's just as unhelpful as any negative way u could say Dave is using the death for
When she's not getting basic facts rights it's hard to put any value on what she's saying for me personally especially when Daphne clearly held Dave in high esteem and defended that special
Her family apparently defends Chapelle’s version.
