He might not be technically wrong, but he’s also being simplistic as fuck and doing a little cherry picking here. We’ve been dealing with this for over tow years at this point. The situation has evolved and is complex. That little explainer of his barely scratches the surface.

I don’t think anybody ever claimed that getting vaccinated would mean you couldn’t catch or spread COVID, just that it reduced the likelihood dramatically, which is still true. I don’t think any experts have ever said straight up that cloth masks don’t work, just that they’re not as effective as N95's, which is still…

Actually, I don’t think there is anything sweet about Kanye’s public pleas for Kim to do as he wants. The man has been told no. He’s using the public forum (which I suspect puts a lot of pressure on Kim because she appears so image conscious) like a weapon. He can suck it. He was a crummy husband. He needs to move on…

show me a white person convicted of anything similar, especially a clearly mentally ill first time offender.  this is racists getting revenge for being called racists..

Arbery’s father, Marcus Arbery Sr., was asked to leave the courtroom after the first verdict was read. He shouted “Woohoo!” after hearing the first guilty count of the man who shot his son

No, it doesn’t feel like justice, but it still feels far better than the Rittenhouse verdict. That’s all I got for now.

Running around putting out fires/offering to help medically isn’t parading around with it.

yeah he is getting off - and I hope they burn down the whole state

I can vouch for myself that no its not fun seeing successful entertainers punch down on people like me for no reason.  But hey at least these people give away how awful they are without much effort. 

And thirdly, you must admit that Hannah Gadsby is not funny.

Yeah, he can go fuck himself some more

I don’t know what it is, I’m really not someone who’s passionate about social issues, but reading what people like Rowling and Chappelle say about Trans people makes me sick to my stomach.

“I want everyone in this audience to know that even though the media frames it that it’s me versus that community, that’s not what it is. Do not blame the LGBTQ community for any of this. It’s about corporate interests, and what I can say, and what I cannot say.”

It’s about corporate interests, and what I can say, and what I cannot say.

He also claims that some of his own trans friends had no problem with his comments, saying, “For the record, and I need you to know this, everyone I know from that community has been loving and supportive, so I don’t know what this nonsense is about.”

I hope he dies soon

What context could be added to supporting JK Rowling and proclaiming himself “team TERF” that would make it acceptable?

And yes, the paradox of tolerance requires that we be intolerant of intolerance to maximize tolerance. You’re not exactly breaking new ground by saying “so much for the tolerant Left!”

The delightful part has been watching people I know explain my existence to me and justify it by telling me about how Dave’s friend is fine with X, so whatever I or others say about our lives is irrelevant. Really adorable.

How is he even a person people try to defend as a “good creator historically”. I’ve watched Chappelle’s Show... it’s shite.

I lost a friend who decided chappelle was worth defending despite the fact knowing me, and what I’ve been through. Like, yep. Of course chappelle’s going to triple down, his audience doesn’t give a shit about trans people.
