Dude got lazy but also... like legitimately scared? He gives off the vibe of, “I am uncomfortable with how fast the world seems to be changing and I’m doing my best to keep certain groups in their place until I can get back to a world I understand,” and he’s doing all that’s in his power to do so.

Commenting to boost.

the IST is Reproductive Justice! A known troll who keeps changing their name, for anyone who thinks they should engage.

It’s really interesting to me to see this defended as basically “when you go to a comedy show, you don’t get to care who comes out” which makes no sense - if you went to a show and the opener who came out was awful, what, you can’t say you disliked them? I think it’s *extremely* safe to say that those who bought…

This is an excellent point? What’s up Jezebel? Does pushing responses with hate speech get more clicks.

Wow, even in the comments here I’m seeing someone use a slur. Chappelle really activated the worst scum around.

The backlash to the backlash of this has been “Well if you’re SO offended don’t go to comedy shows! The joke wasn’t even that bad!”

Any chance that hateful losers like “kyle james” here could be shown the door? I don’t know what mental illness compels him to spend time here, but perhaps he should be encouraged to go play outside.

Not digging how “appropriate” is being made to work there, but I agree that “and here are some of my faves” was the way to end the post.

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.

Chappelle is old and over the hill. He has nothing funny left in him, but he wants attention. So like any worthless person, he panders to bigotry to get it.

It’s not even “not being an asshole,” it’s “not being a bigot.”

And he got it wrong too. The premise of the joke is that the thing that is Thing A but identifies as Thing Bis not actually Thing Bat all and is really still Thing A. The weapon was a knife. It just was in the shape of a gun. So it should’ve been a knife that identifies as a gun. But transphobic fuckheads are too…

Yeah but there’s a difference between a comic who isn’t to your taste and a straight up, well documented bigot. 

This is literal conservative comedian jokes. X identified as Y is Babalon Bee trash. Jesus fucking Christ on a cracker this is pathetic.  At least Tim Heidecker is doing better. 

…just your regular reminder that stand-ups will always band together because “being allowed to say whatever I want on stage” always trumps “ not being an asshole”

“He said ‘You accepted something and you don’t know what it is?’ Jenkins said, and the deputy was told again it was a gift to be opened later.

Get ready for a lot more of this.

If that’s really what the cop says...holy crap that’s dumb.

‘You accepted something and you don’t know what it is?’
