The problem with satire is that not everyone gets that it’s satire.

I don’t know Naruto very well, but I get the feeling that this is one of those “thick book - Naruto, thin book - Naruto if Sakura had a shotgun” situations...

There’s no way this was unintentional. The term “Little Green Men”, as used to refer to unmarked Russian troops (operating illegally) was ubiquitous, and in the news for years.

We lose their perspective on what was one of the most critical periods of world history in countless fields beyond just warfare. Like the modern definition of “Evil” often cites this period as a point of reference.

Few points:

Imagine having such a transactional mindset that you need your goddamn leisure time to be some kind of investment.

“the only difference here, is the trans community has full support all over the world, and from a president. and while the community is still shunned by many, it’s nowhere near as “shamed” as it was before. the whole “delegitimising and directly attacking an entire group of vulnerable human beings” is nothing new in…

I hate this defense.

Sorry, but... what?

“He never once misgendered her.”

Conveniently he labeled his friend a comedian. That was how they were able to be friends. That tribe mattered more to him than gender. And while I think there is something admirable about that, it’s also indicative of his inability or unwillingness to deal with his biases. He never had to address her gender because…

I absolutely love the fact that comedians can say whatever offensive shit they want now, as long as they follow up with “And if this offended you, it’s actually you who is the problem” and people will defend them for that.

Generally society gets more progressive as time goes on. So we just need to wait it out, and the assholes go away.

Byeeee!

Gave it a chance the first time, it was vile. Gave it a chance the secomd time and noped our. This time I watched the clips and its just pure hate this time.

Yeah no. I watched it, at least 75% of it was jokes about the LGBT community. People are arguing “the point was he said people will be mad” because people are already mad at him for these same shitty jokes that are beyond his comprehension. It’s not exactly a gotcha moment to call that he’ll be pissing people off…

This is pretty standard for comedians in their 50s and 60s, unfortunately. I used to defend Joe Rogan (who would definitely defend Dave Chapelle) as a guy who’s misunderstood.

Sometime last year, I stopped listening to his podcast, because it went from being interesting, to him inviting older comedians on, and then…

If something doesn't appeal to you, you are under no goddamned obligation to give it a chance 

So to get this right: Did you just compare transgender people to a disease (diabetes)? Lol

There are people who would like to see friends of mine dead and Chappelle has declared he stands with them.

“first party shooter games”

I’ve never really watched anything from Chappelle before, so I didn’t even know this about him. But I’m glad this news is bringing it to light, so I can avoid him in the future.
