Graeme O'Neil reacts to Dave Chappelle's response to the Transgender community over his Netflix special "The Closer", and his comment that Hannah Gadsby isn't funny.

People are criticizing him without seeing the special. I love Dave is treating as equals since he makes fun of EVERYBODY.
We need more Daves in the world.

Dave is not trying to achieve anything. He is a comedian and a social commentator. He helps us laugh at our silliness. Dave is the goat

[leerhodes]

I love u Dave for telling the truth ❤...

[thorspinky]

Don't compare Dave to Hannah. Dave's a comedian.

People gotta start living their own lives rather then worrying about others. It will make you a lot happier.

I don't understand. For people to say dababy is homophobic when obviously that was ignorant bulls*it while this is obviously transphobic with the knowledge that this is transphobic and still garner support from gay men. It seems gay men don't support the t after all.

Well hannah gadsby isn’t funny! The media loved her but the audience scored her 26% on rotten tomatoes!! There seems to be a hierarchy over who can get offended! Now I’m offended! No one asked for his cancellation when he made fun of r.kelly victims on the Chappelle show but his transgender material was a bridge too far?! 🤔

I found your responses to the comments below more interesting than the argument itself.

Bro anyone who thinks he playing is just in fairy tail land he seriously not joking about that

[bigb]

Lol, you think he was making a joke on Hannah not bzing funny, i'm guessing you didn't see her special 🤣 Dave Chappelle saying that she is not funny is probably the funniest thing about the special and he wasn't even joking yet 🤣

[lucywin]

It is apparent you don’t know anything about Dave Chappelle style of comedy. Dave has been doing comedy and delivering learning moments for years. Your opinion of him trying to create his own “Nanette” is a joke.

[jsb]

Uuuuuf. No. Just no.

He went a whole step and a half too far. It's not corporate interests, it's real people. His words aren't what we need to be putting out there anymore. He's great, but he's all wrong on this one.

That said, I'm glad he finally addressed it and wasn't too much of an ass about it, hahaha.
