r/OutofTheLoop gets the REAL answer of why Dave Chapelle upset Redditors; this upsets some Redditors

Answer: he is very critical of trans women in a lot of the show.

Jaclyn Moore, the Writer/Showrunner of Netflix's TV show "Dear White People" (and before that, "Queer as Folk"), was profoundly hurt and saddened, as a trans woman, not only his act but by the fact that Netflix aired it.

She resigned, and sent out a series of tweets in which she explained why, and talked about what he'd said and how damaging and dangerous it felt to her and to others. Here are some excerpts from her tweets which explain how parts of the act were so corrosive and hurtful:

100s of updooterinos and awards.

Are these people even human? There's really no need to create a bot farm if you push the lolcows in the right direction.

r/television has a thread with some Big Mad comments too: https://old.reddit.com/r/television/comments/q40pwx/dave_chappelle_gets_standing_ovation_amid_netflix/?sort=controversial

Everytime he comes up now I can't help but feel like Dave is becoming an old man yelling at clouds.

It's barely even comedy anymore, it's getting seals to clap as you confirm their dislike of political correctness, or whatever the button is they're using to manipulate people this year.

Punching down is the lowest form of comedy.

He said he was team TERF and then called being trans blackface for women. He then even pulled "I have a trans friend so I'm not transphobic". The man can be hilarious but this isn't it.

Im so over old rich offensive men

Seethe harder, nerds.

“If you don’t like his comedy, don’t watch it” This opinion is so dumb. Dave Chapelle is free to say what he wants, and people are feee to criticize him. You’re doing the same thing by criticizing the criticism. Here, let me go ahead and do exactly what you’re doing: ‘People have the right to criticize the show. The people defending Dave Chapelle are way too sensitive! If you don’t like the criticism, just don’t read it! Easy peasy’.

Its honestly remarkable how the nerds who first invented this "rebuttal" didn't take two seconds to try and extend their logic to the criticism of the criticism and realise they're doing literally the exact same thing.

He’s obviously trying to call out the hypocrisy of people who pretend to care about others, but are really just high on their own righteousness

In other words, Reddit.

Or maybe you’re a transphobic cis person who is glad there’s people that think the same disgusting way as you do?

cis means normal right?

Everyone going on about the trainies is missing the best part of the special, his bit on black/asian hate crimes.

You gotta watch the special just for that.

edit: forgot to mention the obese dyed hairs in 2nd row center. She gets progressively angrier as the show goes on, no idea why she even went, but it's hilarious

Answer: Dave makes fun of everybody; when he got to the part where he makes fun of trans people, the Internet decided it wasn't ok.

That is the most perfect way to phrase that for max seethe because there's no way to deny it lol

dude, cis does mean normal...

The reason it doesn’t mean normal is the same reason you don’t say someone of a different race isn’t normal because you don’t see that race often, it’s a peepee move.

It doesn't mean normal because white "people" aren't normal, neither are 🚂's (now what's the overlap between those two demographics again? )

Jesus Christ the mental gymnastics with these train people. Pretty much every answer is "because I say so" and "here's a smattering of wikipedia articles also written by trains because they say so". I fricking never cared for Chappelle before but love him now.

Chapelle and the Star Wars Store Boomer should do a tour together.

jannies removed it hahahaha

"I never found Dave funny" said every humorless b-word

every human being on earth, had to pass through the legs of a woman to be on earth

This is a controversial statement in 2021

Jaclyn Moore

She is the type of women who gives the Trans movement a bad name. Dave Chapelle was brilliant in Closer

Have you seen trans spaces? To say you can't make fun of trans people is patently false — we do it to ourselves literally all the time.

Fricking heck that's a good explanation

one hundred comments starting with "i love edgy humour, but this is too far" lol

Daily reminder that Reddit isn't real life and irl these people are probably losers seething quietly.

Funniest thing is that Dave pulled a magical negro move with his 'cool funny ' story.

Also, comedy in current year is basically a culture war sermon.

He often tries to underscore the fact that gay and trans movements are run generally by white men and there is significant white privilege in how their efforts are received and the power that these groups have as compared to other minority groups.

Why is it the only actual problems happen to be that there are mayos running it?

Though mayos are problematic so idk.

I click on one of the 🚂’s upset and this is the first thing I see:

I’ve been a self harm addict for about 2 years AMA

I’m just bored and I thought since it’s a pretty taboo subject you can ask any questions you have here.

Why are redditors so fricking obvious

or enlightened centrists who think it's funny to see lefties get triggered.

We've been called out. Also what's going on in this thread?

Literally cope and dilate

This is my beef with the whole "consequences" thing Leftists keep spouting. Who the frick are you? No, seriously.....who the Frick are YOU to determine a) who should face consequences and b) what those consequences should be? Just like Youtube, Twat-face and the rest, you are Nobody. They are Nobody. No one voted you or the Twat-face Cancel Warriors into office--no one appointed you, Zuckface or the rest of the White Cis Male Patriarchy Brigade to a seat in a court as Judge, Jury or Executioner. You should never have even been given the notion that you have, any way whatsoever, the Power to determine those things. That's what the frick is wrong with society and cancel culture as it stands right now. Everybody wants to think they're fricking SPECIAL and have some Right to determine who should speak, about what they should speak, and how they should speak it.

I'm categorically against any antisemitism, Nazisms, racisms, misogyny and trans hate speech, and I think my record of posts on this site proves that. But I do NOT have the right to shut someone else up. That's not my fricking place. I an argue with them--I can disagree--I can post until the cows go home....but God did not come down from High and anoint me (or you), or anyone else, the power to cancel or shut people up just because I disagree with them.

Ya'll need to learn your fricking lane and stick to it. The Right to Free Speech is for speech you hate, not for speech you agree with. Go sit the frick down somewhere until you realize your place and learn how to stay in it.
