I didn’t think he’s as transphobic as he’s put out to be. However, he’s not coming off great and I don’t see why he needs those bits. He’s a better comedian than that.
Like I think I saw a clip of one of his most recent ones and at the end it … the point was that a trans man or women doesn’t really look much like who they want to be or identify as to him. I mean, it seems dehumanizing doesn’t it?
Well, maybe he is as transphobic, maybe I gotta see the whole special to get it and it’s part of a larger gag. In any case, I’m not a fan of that type of stuff. Also, he brought Musk on stage so fuck him.
The transphobia stands out because it’s neither funny nor relevant - there’s no purpose to it other than to be a cunt performatively.
The Lil Nas X song he talks about is what - 2 years old now? Beyond that, the “jokes” are the same thing the daily wire has been rolling out for years - “He has a penis and thinks he’s a she hurrr durrr.”
Then there was the whole “If I went to prison, I’d say I’m a woman and rape everyone in sight” hilarity.
That last joke I freaking hate. I swear it’s so goddamned lazy. I’m watching a regular YouTuber talk about some random topic and he decides to chat with his audience and he makes the exact same joke. “Hur dur, if I go jail I’d identity as a women and be super woke cause that’s all they care about now and I’ll get off scot-free”.
I think “joke“ is a stretch with that one - it’s not original, not funny, and delivers no meaningful commentary beyond “I’d be a rapist if I thought I could get away with it.”
Chapelle was a decent comedian when he talked about what he knew and had something to say, but this is just pitiful.
Oh there certainly are funny trans jokes, it’s just that they come from people who respect trans folks and understand them enough to actually be funny. Just like jokes about black people, which is what used to make Dave funny. He was familiar enough with black culture, and had respect for black people enough, to make actually funny jokes about them where the punchline wasn’t “herrr durr look how dumb and scary they are”.
Believe it or not, leftists tend to not be humourless wokescolds and oppression Olympians like the right had to start pretending they are when they abandoned remotely defensible arguments, and had to fall back on being “triggering”.
Others have shared jokes (which I haven’t watched yet), so I’ll skip butchering one myself.

Has he ever told a funny trans joke?

Yeah this video deals with it quite well
Definitely.

I think Dave just became an old man with set opinions earlier than he was supposed to.
He has similar energy to a not-quite-racist-but-certainly-off-color grandpa.
He’s whatever it takes to grab the headlines. If transphobic comedy is what it takes, that’s what he’s going to give.
It’s his schtick, He goes there because it’s an easy way to differentiate, few people are going to go there these days.
