Dave Chappelle has released a new Netflix special, The Dreamer, which is full of jokes about the trans community and disabled people.
“I love punching down!” he tells the audience, in a one-hour show that landed on the streaming service today (31 December).
It’s his seventh special for Netflix and comes two years after his last one, the highly controversial release The Closer.
That programme was criticised for its relentless jokes about the trans community, and Chappelle revisits the topic in his new show.
He tells jokes about trans women in prison, and about trans people “pretending” to be somebody they are not.
The funny thing is I have literally no idea who he is. I have to assume he’s some American “comedian” who, like most of his ilk, is utterly irrelevant/unheard of outside the United States.
He was a famous comedian who stopped doing his popular sketch show because he didn’t like the way white people where laughing at his race jokes who came back after about a decade and now makes money by making white people laugh the wrong way at Trans people and other disenfranchised people.
He was insightful and hilarious 2 decades ago.
Last thing of his I watched didn’t make me laugh once and just felt forced and gross

Na mate, your at your much better at it. The way you completely refuse to break character is hilarious.
Maybe if you were a bit less defensive and aggressive someone would’ve informed you that it’s actually spelled “pansy fucks” and you would be able to more successfully insult and fear those you don’t understand.
well said. on all points.
