This is basically the perfect storm of willful ignorance, arrogance, and desire to create as big a grift as possible at this point.

I see we regressed back to “I loveee the gayyzzz but I dont agree with their lifestyle and thats ok we are all entitled to opinions...cancel cuuuultureeeee” and its super cool that Chapelle with MILLIONS on his platform has totally validated that stance, that somehow trans and queer existence is a matter of a…

Surprised that Jenner hasn’t moved to the UK given even the BBC is now happily portraying every sack of shit sellout of the trans community as the voice of said community.

It’s entirely on-brand for Meghan McCain to not realize that people are being shitty to her because she’s being shitty to them. She’s the epitome of the person who doesn’t realize that she’s not just running into assholes all day: she’s the asshole.

It was definitely your personality, Meg. It will always be your personality.

The fact that Chapelle is indeed a great comedian is actually what makes his behavior worse. He is perfectly capable of making great comedy without horrible and harmful jokes towards the LGBTQI+ community, but he choose not to. Because of the power trip, the ego.

I feel like Dave wants to make this into a culture war, not of trans vs cis, but of him vs his former fans.

I mean, Oppression Olympics aside, there are also people who are Black and LGBT-and Dave’s ongoing beef with the LGBT community seems predicated on the idea that the two groups are mutually exclusive.

Ugh, all Kevin Hart had to do was apologize. Americans would have accepted it. But he’d rather double down on bigotry instead of admit he was wrong.

Look, wealthy cis straight dudes are having a real hard go of it at the moment, just think of how many $100 bills they’ve had to throw away after using them to dry their eyes and blow their noses. It’s an invisible crisis, I tell you!

He does have the freedom to say what he wants and he did say it. Freedom to say what you want doesn’t mean there are no consequences or opinions. 

This gets right at the heart of people like Chappelle or Gervais who constantly bang the drum of “comedians should be edgy.” If that’s true, expressing a majority opinion about a minority is the opposite of edgy!! Transphobia and homophobia are not the edge. If anything they were saying actually was edgy or new, it…

The funniest joke in The Closer was when he got genuinely emotional about Kevin Hart not getting to host the Oscars because people.. are mean?!

It’s a two way street though.  People like Chappelle who complain about cancel culture, which is really just a complaint about accountability and criticism, also would infringe on the rights of a lot of people to say what they want, and would have opinions they disagree with go away or be erased.

So to answer the Internet Geniuses who respond with tired shit like “should Catholics only be played by Catholics, THEN?” There’s a difference between the role Catholicism plays in the world and the role Jews and Judaism play. One is the richest most powerful church on earth and has been for centuries. The others were…

She’s what we call “the exception that proves the shul”.

I think it’s fine Silverman questions this, I don’t think she’s being overly sensitive for pondering it. Anti-semitism is still going strong.

Julianne saw all the fun Nicole Kidman was having with her prosthetic nose on the set of The Hours and wanted to get in on that action.

Well, she’s not wrong; everyone who gets the vaccine IS going to die. It’s just that everyone who doesn’t get the vaccine has a much higher chance of dying SOONER, and of a virus that could have almost certainly avoided if they’d have gotten the vaccine.
