Ricky Gervais’ Netflix comedy special “SuperNature” has only been released on the streamer for a few hours, but it has already drawn criticism for a string of graphic and hurtful transphobic jokes.

Four minutes into the special, Gervais dives into material about the trans community, seemingly calculated to draw controversy.

What's his FR handle?

Saw it today, funny.

I sat and watched Gervais show yesterday. He’s fairly blunt...there’s the womb-people and there’s the beard-women. As ridiculous as it sounds...he’s making you see through the current BS. It’s worth watching.

[RandFan]

I intend to watch..

[Alvin Diogenes]

He’s very funny, and he tells the truth.

I loved the rant he did hostig the Golden Globe awards a few years back.

He totally eviscerated, the pompous, self important, ignorant Hollywood crowd.

If you haven’t seen it, here it is... Enjoy!

First time i’ve heard of that ‘TERF’ acronym

[Fungi]

An oconoclastic atheist who has no reagard for anyone, especially Christians. He’s not funny; just uses the old chestnut of going shainst anything sacred, especially religion. He’s an f’ing bore.

I think this self-centered transgender sexual gratification is a joke gone too far. Halloween dress-up should happen only once a year, unless one wants an acting career.

Lucky you... You haven't been reading woke nonsense.

But seriously, TERF accusations are a big deal in the progressive's circular firing squad.

As is common with the left's use of language, the phrase "Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist" is itself a lie. The woke people who use "TERF" as an insult are the radicals -- they're the ones who claim that women can have penises, etc. They denigrate actual women, are dismantling women's rights, and claim that they can turn human nature upside-down.

It's like the phrase "gender-affirming", which is another lie; it means "gender-denying".

[Its All Over Except ...]

Very soon these freaks will claim that penises are vaginas and that vaginas are penises. I mean, if xy can be xx and xx can be xy, then why not?

[Mr. Blond]

End the trans tyranny!

That’s the best way to mock them. When someone talks about trans women, you can say with a straight face,’Oh, women with penises.’

They will be startled, but they cannot be offended. You are just stating something factual, matter of fact. And it will instantly show them how silly that is.

What is really at the root of the Trans agenda. I have been thinking about it for sometime and I think I have the answer. The trannies are bundled together with the homos under the LGBT umbrella but they have nothing in common. The L, G and B are all the same. They are homos with different names. The T is a separate group with a separate agenda.

He is a funny guy

Ricky is hilarious! He spares no one. A comedy genius.
