Unsurprisingly, it has taken very little time for rights groups—most notably GLAAD—to take issue with one of the world’s most powerful entertainment brands paying a very famous comedian millions of dollars to tell these kinds of jokes. GLAAD issued a statement today asserting that, “Dave Chappelle’s brand has become synonymous with ridiculing trans people and other marginalized communities. Negative reviews and viewers loudly condemning his latest special is a message to the industry that audiences don’t support platforming anti-LGBTQ diatribes.”
They went after Eddie Murphy for the same thing after his ‘Delirious’ special made fun of gays.
Murphy has sinced apologized for it.
Chappelle’s brand has become synonymous with ridiculing trans people and other marginalized communities.
If you can’t make fun of marginalized communities,
who CAN you make fun of???
Socialism doesn’t believe in fun...
