Lmfao they broke the sign off the stick and called the stick a weapon to try to get him out

He’s a comedian. As great as he is I’m not expecting academia peer reviewed takes from a comedian.
True. That’s why I can’t be mad at him. But I can see why randoms would be.
Media is essentially a pseudoreligion at this point and the fact that it has no moral framework was always going to result in its selfdestruction
all these walkouts and people quitting means there's job openings at netflix

i think that this whole culture war thing does nothing but push neoliberal corporate representation politics as a pacifier while the actual groups are suffering and will continue to suffer under capital
maybe i’m thinking too much into it, but the whole thing about “MORE TRANS EXECUTIVES AT NETFLIX” being in the walkout demands seems kinda dumb because it won’t actually change anything substantially

Whilst you are right that the culture war is just liberal bait to keep everyone fighting each other instead of the system, the demand of having more trans people in positions of power is a good one.
The most absurd part of this is that it’s all going exactly according to plan and everyone is getting exactly what they want
Netflix is happy
Dave is happy
Trans protesters are ultimately happy to protest
Nothing changes yet we all get a little more angry and our positions are reinforced

It’s a good thing to a certain extent but it isn’t enough to fully move forward with change
That special is the first time I’m hearing TERF. Why they keep making up random acronyms
Radical Feminism exists
Would taking the special off change anything in any community?
iirc the demands say they just want a content disclaimer but generally if it was removed or not, no
I agree with everything Eureka says in their interview
Matt Walsh is a grade A chud

what a dork
did they walkout when netflix had that show where kids were being sexualized?
nigga the whole world protested about that s***
And Cuties had good intentions just terrible execution
Dave's intentions are to be edgy lmao not really the same thing
Dumbass @op shared a matt walsh tweet
Agreed with everything in op except that the special was funny at all
That special sucked tbh
The thing that bothers me the most about (new) Chappelle and that whole Rogan-sphere is they don't actually care about what they say. They say IDENTITY IDENTITY IDENTITY IDENTITY but let's be 100% honest - the problem isn't """identity politics""" the problem is their identity IS LOSING. Do you think Dave Chappelle cares about the media giving special attention to black people and black causes? Of course not, he just doesn't like that Gay/Trans people are the new hotness for the media to pretend to care about instead of his identity group. Go back to his stand-up a few years ago where he talks about white people's interpretation of the Chappelle show and why that discouraged him from comedy. Sure seems he cares quite a bit about identity. It's the same s*** with all those "common sense conservatives". Bari "how dare you insult israel" Weiss is here to lecture me on how identity politics is evil? Jordan "christianity is the salvation of mankind" Peterson is here to sell me on the evils of ritual dogma? Why don't you just be and honest and admit you're angry your identity group has lost the culture war.
Post hard as 🧱

a content disclaimer for trans jokes or hate speech or recommending trans content or connect it to a documentary won't change much
