It’s time for Chapelle to move on from trans jokes- Shaun King

[Cheese McNair]

Pay attention to the bold, like really. Because that has been THE ENTIRE POINT the whole time. He has spelled it out in plain fukking english, he doesn't have a real issue with the trans community, he has issue with RACISTS using the LBGTQ community to hide behind their "minority" status to mask said racism.

Even people in the LBGTQ community admit that it is still largely controlled by white males, very racist and also growing in power and influence. Your priviliage as a white male doesn't all of a sudden disapear just because you put a fukking dress on.

Comedy central exec; "The N-word is fine but you can't say the F-word on TV Dave"
Dave: "Why?"
Exec: "Because you're not gay"
Dave: "I'm not a n1gger either....."



People either listen to the talking points about the material and never watch, or made up their mind how they were going to interpret things. This is not about attacking "harmless" trans people who just want to live their lives, this is about cacs taking advantage to make it so if there ever comes a time to call out the blatant racism within that community that you're immeadiatly shusshed.

Even with the LGBT riding in the car joke, he mentioned that the gay white man is the driver because he knows the streets of oppression very well.

He ended one special flat out saying his issue is with white people.

Told the story about the gay black dude in the bar that he almost fought and that the black gay guy, at the end of the day, knew they were both black men and calling the cops wasn’t a good idea.

Caitlyn Jenner became woman of the year, her first year being a woman. It shouldn’t be a requirement for all liberals to just accept this. We can’t be a nation where there’s only two schools of thought.

When Dave was making fun of everyone else it wasn't an issue

NOW it's an issue that he's making fun of Trans people?

When he pointed out that Black people don't make good hostages...EVERYONE laughed at the fact that the Black man is valued so little that he could not be used as a bargaining chip in a hostage situation.

Even Black people laughed because it's like....damn...you right...

But NOW it's a problem

Even AFTER he broke down his friendship with the Trans comedian who committed suicide because they supported Dave?

Dave is STILL considered "transphobic"?

It's garbage, and you know what, I think if it wasn't for Donald Trump? We wouldn't even be discussing this shyt

But the GOP has become so bashyt crazy, that they've brought the worst of the worst of this country to the forefront as representative of "the other side" when the fact of the matter is, A LOT of the country ain't on this "a man can get pregnant" shyt but the side that's on some restricting their civil rights and denying them the same rights as anyone else is so batshyt crazy that the other side has no choice but to pander and pretend to be ok with the shyt

Everyone should read your last paragraph.

He's laid that point out in plain english any and every time he's spoke on this, yet people already have their minds made up. Even as someone who has always been supportive and on some 'live and let live' time, I feel like I'm constantly being gaslit and called a bad person for even asking at what point after changing their gender does a white man reliquish all the privliages that come with it and become "harmless"?

Liberals and feminists will rant and rave about how white men are the enemy of all enemies...til they put a dress on or pick an identity besides 'straight/cis'. And if you remind them that all of the privialige and potential to weild power doesn't just go out the window with that decision you're a bigot.

He literally said “My problem has never been with transgender people, it has always been with the whites, I’ve been arguing with the whites my entire life”

Dave doesn't have a problem with white people or trannies for that matter. Ya'll have to realize that at the end of the day comedians are just entertainers who love the attention and will say anything to affirm it from others. That's it. I just want the brother to be funny again.

 

[Kings County]

lol so he should also stop telling jokes about everyone?
black people? white people? dems? republicancs?
equality is getting joked on bruh
not wanted to be included is not equality

"Just say no"...

 

[RickyDiBiase]

"Just say no"...

You do not need to defend a multi-millionaire bro. You're too emotionally invested in shyt that doesn't matter at the end of the day. lol.

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Whatever group you choose to focus your comedy on do it but do it well. These specials are mid as fukk and feel too much like old man waving at cloud. There is a funny way to go at the LGBT whatever community and other similar communities. Haven't seen that from Dave. I think its cringe as fukk black folks forcing themselves to support these whack ass specials.

He was funny the first time and then he got blow back and responded. I honestly think the response has made him less funny because now he’s angry.

 

[Rekkapryde]

I agree 100% with @Basaglia on his view of the situation.

These mad trans cats and their supporters don't even realize that Dave is actually an ally and they are so encapsulated with being mad that they don't see it. That's why he's mad.

Meanwhile cats like Ricky Gervais and Bill Burr are talking about women like a dog and no one bats an eye. Why? They don't give a fukk. And they don't get any smoke to the degree that Dave does.


Black men always gotta be the face of bad shyt, always. Meanwhile crehs getting slaps on the wrist just like everything else in Society.

Why stop at Trans jokes if that's the case as well?

It ain't just about defending HIM, it's about defending me.

I got friends that are LBGTQ that know my heart, know that individually I would treat them with the same dignity that I would any other human being. But because I wouldn't sign off on a petition that says there's no distinction between women and trans women, I'd be considered a bigot. I dont think we all have to cross that line in order to be kind to one another. I'm invested in the outcome of this diagloge because I do care about people, more than I feel I should at times but that's just me. But with the way the conversation is going, people who would otherwise be allies of said community are becoming indifferent if not outright standoffish because of the gaslighting.

Also, the brother is still very very funny and making very salient points, just not at mostly at the expensve of black folk that people claim was so much better than what he's doing now.

I'M NOT TRYING TO HEAR YOUR fukkING MOTHER GOOSE ASS ORIGIN STORIES OMG YOU nikkaS ARE INSUFFERABLE just take the nikkas nuts out your mouth and enjoy the damn mid ass specials dude. God.

 

[Street Knowledge]

Dude was physically attacked over this

 

[You Win Perfect]

So he wants to shyt on trans people without any consequences.

Lol what joke, imagine some racist comedian using similar logic against us, while getting 50m from Netflix.

Empathy isn't a hard thing, you obviously won't let racism slide so why should they let transphobia slide.

A lot of trannies on this site I see

Yeah, he was spot on with his opinion of this mess. The fukked up thing is that the lesson that REALLY needs to be learned here is that sometimes, your support isn't going to come in the form you wanted it, but it's support nonetheless.

But Ba was also right that it's time for him to move on, though. Social talking points are just like jokes. The minute you gotta start explaining it, it lost its effectiveness, and it's not gonna work unless you drop it and come back to it once the audience has a different perspective. In this case, the audience hasn't done it, and isn't ready to.
