People who really have it out for trans people are often upset because the notion of transitioning implies that the gender binary is kind of bullshit, which they may then take to imply that part of their identity, which is built around certainty about their own masculinity or femininity, is under assault. It’s not,…
He’s not being offended by everything, he’s being offended by bigotry.
That’s the truly amazing thing about Dave’s trans jokes. The fact that he’s a bigot doubling down on his hot take isn’t shocking at this point, but you’d think a professional comedian long lauded as one of the finest the industry has ever seen would have better material than an average YouTube comment.
Well he also came out recently against affordable housing in his neighborhood, so it’s not his WHOLE shtick.
Oh man if only they were braver in person you’d be such a big tough strong man and physically assault them! That would prove so much to everyone about who is in the right! And is also the very most mature thing someone can do!
I stopped watching Maher when he started using every excuse to suggest that Democrats should throw trans people under the bus for the sake of electoral expediency. He actively resents their existence.
Bill Maher has been off the deep end for a long time. He joined the idiotic chorus of if you don’t like my offensive jokes it’s because you’re soft, not because my offensive jokes are cliched and bad years ago.
There is a single sentence in Bill’s tirade that admits this.
It’s more than that. Bill claims gay people are “doubling every generation,” from 1.5 percent in the 1940s to 10+ percent today (suggesting, I don’t know what, that they aren’t really gay, they are just looking for attention or some other reason?). But I suspect that the percentage of gay people are the same across…
Laws have recently been put in place to deny trans people rights.
Transphobic can also mean hating trans people.
So is this Chappelle’s whole shtick now, he’s just gonna be the “trans jokes guy” from now on? What’s next on his agenda, doing a set at CPAC?
In other news, Bill Maher ended his recent New Rules segment of Real Time with a mostly dumb, arguably awful take on trans identity in the US.
Mulaney was the only guy who dropped Dave Becky after the Louis CK thing became public. Mulaney is also obsessed with his image as a good guy. This is unexpected.
you shouldn't have to be subjected to transphobia and homophobia when you're tryna have a good time
Yeah but there’s a difference between a comic who isn’t to your taste and a straight up, well documented bigot.
The hell? I expect better from the guy who fucked around on his wife.
They tried to set something up like this with cats, but had to shut it down when all the emails were racist. The cats themselves were not racist, but they typed racist emails on purpose to try to get you fired.
