This is his third special explaining some shyt he said cause he doesn't know how to express himself. CLEARLY the problem isn't the public's. Its Daves.

How many times you gonna ask us to "hear you out?"

Let me shock most of the people in this thread: Bruh, I agree with everything he said...he's just annoying me. WE HEARD YOU. TELL JOKES, BRUH. We don't care.

I haven't heard anyone relate an actual funny joke from the special, nor have I seen a single vid go viral from it with a funny joke. The entire discussion of the special is that it's "great" because Dave is saying whatever he wants. It's like praising a rap song for being lyrical miracle but...is it a good song or not? Where's "the funny"? Finding "the funny" used to be quite easy with a Dave special. He started with funny, got serious but mixed in funny, and then ended with more funny. Think about...the "how old is 15, really" bit and how funny that special was before, during and after that semi serious portion.

I haven't seen the new special. The previous Netflix ones weren't super funny, but had interesting and even fascinating moments. They were more interesting in what Dave was saying or trying to say. But even some of that was clumsy. I see people constantly bringing up Carlin, who got more serious in his later years...but Carlin never punched down on marginalized groups. And until someone can explain to me how trans people aren't marginalized because you can't denigrate them without facing consequences...I will remain puzzled by Dave's obsession with this. Like, there's so much going on in the world but you're still on trannies and gay nikkas?

I swear he's becoming Kanye.

He wants you to love him for being a genius, instead of proving he's a genius.

And Dave himself is insecure by showing he has to explain himself, more than just expressing himself.

The new one has funny moments but legitimately half of it is dedicated to transgenders.

To spoil a small bit of it, he says that he's done talking about the issue after these specials.




....which was clearly a lie :heh:

I dont give a fukk anymore

This is coming off as a dude who feels the culture war is moving beyond him.

shyt was weird when he started asking people to help him get his TV show deal back. Now he's just talking in circles about trans people.

Just stand on your own two and say: "its weird and I dont get it so I'm going to mock them" and keep it moving. No one knows what he's talking about and trying to get at anymore.

Theres no goal here other than hearing yourself talk.

Point flew over your head.

He prefaced the conversation by saying it wasn't about the LGBT community. That it was about the media.

He is shedding light on what they do, but ultimately putting the power in the hands of the people.

Makes sense when you look at his reviews. Panned by professional critics, loved by members of the public.

I swear these dudes don't listen or remember things they heard a few seconds ago. They pay attention to what they want too just like "The Tranny's":sas2:
