    Black is more powerful than trans.

    Wondering, what would have happened if the employee was a black lesbian… That would have been a tough case. A true clash of Titans.

    Anyone can be made fun of. This cancel culture is ridiculous.

  • So she was fired for stirring up shit internally and not for the tweet, sounds fair enough. Just because you're offended doesn't mean you can do what you want in a professional setting

  • Nobody really *listened* to what chappelle was saying the first time so they won't do it this time either. Not surprised

    • Yeeeahh, this person has definitely not watched the specials. Which, sadly, drives home the whole point he's trying to make. The irony of which will be lost on many.

    *Talks about the trans community being responsible for his trans friends’ suicide*

    Trans community: “he hates trans!!”

    • I would argue that, based off the special, Dave doesn't hold the trans community responsible for the suicide of his friend. I believe he admits that he doesn't know what Daphne was feeling/thinking/going through at the time, but posits that the harassment by some vocal members of Twitter certainly didn't help.

      I think his anger is pointed towards the toxicity that "Cancel Culture" has become, with everybody on the internet hopping on whatever anger bandwagon they can without contextualizing whatever was said or done. There's been a few comedians pushing back against the knee-jerk reactionary nature of people in the web by giving them the middle finger to show that they won't be intimidated.

      I'm sure that Dave is sad that doing so likely hurt a dear friend of his.
