Hollywood comedian Patton Oswalt is apologizing after posting a photo on social media with his longtime friend and fellow comic Dave Chappelle.
Chappelle has recently come under fire for his Netflix comedy special “The Closer,” which critics say is insensitive toward the transgender community.
Just days after creating the post, Oswalt felt a need to extinguish any fires it may have caused among his fan base, which tends to be liberal.
In a lengthy apology post, Oswalt noted he had played a show with a friend on New Year's Eve who he had not seen in a while, referring to Chappelle.
“We’ve known each other since we’re teens. He’s a fellow comedian, the funniest I’ve ever met. I wanted to post a pic & an IG story about it — so I did,” wrote Oswalt.
But we also 100% disagree about transgender rights & representation. I support trans peoples’ rights — ANYONE’S rights — to live safely in the world as their fullest selves. For all the things he’s helped ME evolve on, I’ll always disagree with where he stands NOW on transgender issues.
Oswalt continued in his post that he was "sorry, truly sorry" that he "didn’t consider the hurt" posting the picture "would cause. Or the DEPTH of that hurt."

Liberalism Is A Mental Disorder.
No doubt about it.
His apology implies Chappelle is pushing violence toward transgenders. Beyond slimey to conflate disagreement on issue with hatred & hostility.
Wuss.
Look him up on the internet if you really want to know.
UNLESS "ANYONE'S" rights disagrees with his twisted opinions. If the left-tards really cared about Transgenders they would be concerned about how this mental disorder is driving those afflicted by it to suicide and self loathing. No amount of pressure applied to accept this disorder as normal will alleviate the suicidal tendencies of the afflicted. It has always been the case that Liberal Compassion is really contempt and hatred.
The best case scenario is that he was an enabler. He lied to the LAPD to cover up her (and probably his) drug abuse problem. Since there was no investigation we will never know what really happened.
I misread “their fullest selves” as “their silliest selves” at which point it made perfect sense to me!
These people all need an intervention.
He sent their daughter the night before to a sleep over. It was way too convenient to be a coincidence. Then he remarried a short time later. There is something terribly wrong with him.
I very loosely knew him about 11 years ago when I was producing my radio show, and just before his career blew up. He was a drunken, unpredictable mess! Not sure if he’s beat that or not... but he was insufferable.
Pathetic, disfigured, pedophilic troll. With friends like that, who needs creepy twisted enemies. Hope the Bee article is true, lol.
I guess the Left p*ssies are a combo of Stalin and Mao now.
Did Chappel apologize for being seen with Patton?
“He’s a fellow comedian...”
I don’t think so. I think Patton is nothing but a whiny progressive communist ... definitely no a comedian.
Fan base? The three people addicted to reruns of "King of Queens," where Patton or Oswald was the annoying dweeb everyone ditched, asap.
What pisses my off if everytime I try to Google search on General Patton this a-hole comes up.
LOL!
Pathetic.
I think if Munchkin Oswald had been a shell shocked soldier that Patton slapped, Patton would have slapped him two or three times more, just for good measure.
