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.
Wow. You weren’t joking. Not just photo ops, but photo ops specifically to pass on a bigoted message.
But sure, he’s an equal-opportunity offender and besides it’s just a joke, bro.
What evidence do you have that he knew how this photo would be used? He doesn’t exactly look like he’s excited to be in the photo.

Oh no! She tricked him by having identical views and saying so!
But he’s excited to collect millions from netflix for his yearly “transphobe comedy hour”. He knows who the fans of that comedy are…
