    I love how you admit to not having a fucking clue what everyone is talking about, but still assert, full of confidence, that you’re right anyway. 🤡🤦‍♀️

    Not that it matters, because you clearly don’t care about reality, but

    A. “just a joke” isn’t and never has been a defence, it’s just openly “disguised” bigotry, but more importantly

    B. Chappelle himself openly admits to not only deliberately antagonizing trans people which he continues to do, but that next he plans to deliberately target disabled people because we’re less “organised” and therefore, he thinks, less likely to push back against his bigotry.

    There is only one reason left for anyone to defend this asshole, he made damn sure of it, and he was right too - bigots defend bigots. ¯\(ツ)

      I’m not a fan, he’s boring lazy and has a victim complex. The joke about targeting disabled people instead is not the hill to die on, it’s the closest he comes to jokes now

      You are clearly incapable of understanding anything beyond the literal. Be afraid. Chappelle is coming for you personally.

        It’s not true, though, you understand? It’s just a punch line. He doesn’t really think being trans is the same as pretending to be Asian.

        “Joke’s on you, I was only pretending to be a bigot” while being surrounded by and supported by bigots isn’t a great argument that you are in fact not a bigot. 🤷‍♂️

          It is if you’re another bigot who genuinely thinks bigotry is funny…

          People just love telling on themselves… 🤷‍♀️

        Lmmfao, in other words, you admit you’re a bigot and are going to die on this hill defending the… what, reputation? of a more famous bigot, who has openly admitted to targeting marginalised people and “loving to punch down” (aka being a bigot), because you just can’t fucking help your bigoted self because you just love bigotry that fucking much.

        Fucking clown.

          I only see one clown here lmao. DesertClowns🤡 Keep em coming. Your cluelessness is comedy gold! You’re right, you are the direct target of his jokes, but get this: it’s got nothing to do with disability or gender… It’s your ignorance he’s poking fun at.

        “He openly admits the punchlines of a joke? No way.”

        Nice of you to admit that you think being trans is the punchline of a joke.

        It’s extremely foolish to support Chappelle even using HIS OWN logic. Remember why his show suddenly ended? He realized a ton of people weren’t seeing the irony and were just laughing straight up at the silly bigotry in his skits unironically. It wasn’t making people aware of black issues and it wasn’t helping white people not be bigots.

        Then he runs off to Africa to find himself and comes back and … decides to DELIBERATELY TARGET another minority group?! Wasn’t that kind of ignorant heel-digging the exact thing he was making ironic skits about black culture to push against?!

        Either way, Dave is either now KNOWINGLY targeting a minority group, or he’s an ignorant boomer too fucking stupid to see he’s doing to trans people exactly what he didn’t want to do to black people.

        Either he’s a bigot or a moron. Either way, he doesn’t deserve respect.

            Doesn’t that make it worse? He was upset enough about it happening to black people that he left the show that bore his name.

            Then he… chooses to put that ill on someone else?! Knowingly? That’s straight up evil.

        So every Chappelle fan is a bigot?

        Yes.

        And you don’t get to make the call of wether or not people get the jokes.

        “If I get arrested, I’ll say I’m a woman and rape everyone.” is hilarious and definitely not a screaming self-report.

        What was your favourite trans joke from this set? Maybe the super-relevant one about the 2 year old music video? The plainly stated Daily Wire talking points maybe?
