John Mulaney is in hot water for letting the greatest to ever do it, Dave Chappelle, open up for him in Ohio. Dave Chappelle is in hot water for telling a trans and/or homophobic joke, in his first show back since being attacked on stage. At least, that's the way the media is playing it. If nothing else, it's Exhibit Q why Bill Burr refuses to apologize to outrage mobs who may or may not have even seen the material.
Variety said, "John Mulaney Draws Criticism for Having Dave Chappelle Open, Tell ‘Transphobic Jokes’ at Ohio Show." TMZ went with "JOHN MULANEY SLAMMED FOR HAVING CHAPPELLE OPEN ...And 'Transphobic' Jokes." As is usually the case, the best they could come up with is four tweets between the two publications.
You may have noticed no one has said what the joke was. Just that they were outraged and it was what critics call "transphobic." Also, notice a lot of the outrage is directed towards John Mulaney. It's because they know Chappelle doesn't give a f*ck, and Mulaney is probably a big enough pussy to apologize.
Still no clue what Chappelle said.
No mention of what joke was told. But these four randos were enough to warrant headlines about criticism and outrage over "transphobic jokes."
TMZ at least attempted to say what the alleged offensive material was.
Wow. Remember, Chappelle's attacker came at him with an old gun that had a knife if it. "A gun that identifies as a knife" is what's being deemed transphobic. As opposed to a good line. And the homophobic joke was telling two people (who I think were hecklers) that they looked gay ... which Chappelle then said there is nothing wrong with.
That's it. That was the offensive material.
It's okay to tell Twitter to shut the f*ck up once and a while. While I understand it's good for content (we can smell our own), it's not necessary to write news articles every time five idiots on the bird app have the same dumb opinion.
