Is Dave Chappelle A Transphobe? When Edgy Humor Becomes Hate

Is Dave Chappelle A Transphobe? When Edgy Humor Becomes Hate

I talk about Dave Chappelle's latest Netflix special The Closer and the controversy surrounding his comments about trans people. I talk about how punching up and punching down relates to whether or not comedy is funny, what makes a joke hack, and how to tell if an edgy joke is coming from a place of prejudice or not. I also clarify how a better understanding of trans issues would've helped Dave navigate this special without as much controversy (assuming he didn't want controversy).
