It's amazing to just watch progressives continuously alienate and shame based on their little purity tests. Can't win an election, fascism going global, still screeching over some jokes you find in poor taste.
He said that he was on team terf, like JK Rowling, because trans people were too annoying not to be.
Look, I get it, Dave Chappelle was cool circa 2000, but he's fucking lame now. I'm not going to pretend that this cowardly, always pissing and moaning about cancel culture, has-been comedian is worth spending any of my time on. If he wanted to come back and be as well liked as he used to be, he should have been funny.
He made 4 specials bashing trans people. He didn't fail a purity test. He failed the thoroughly mixed test. Between the trans "jokes" and calling his audance poor for booing Musk, he's clearly a class traitor.
