No one loves a good trans joke more than Dave Chappelle, and despite the backlash he’s faced for doing them in the past, he kicked off his new comedy special Dreamer with his ‘most humiliating’ joke about trans people yet.

Well, you have to admit that was quite a good set-up leading to the punchline, but it’s managed to upset a bunch of people all the same. Clearly, the cancellation of Dave Chappelle did not work the first or second or third time around and so he’s still going to joke about whatever he wants, with full backing from Netflix.
During the special, Chappelle also cracked a joke about allowing trans women in women’s prisons:
“God forbid I ever go to jail. But if I do, I hope it’s in California. Soon as the judge sentences me, I’ll be like, ‘Before you sentence me, I want the court to know I identify as a woman. Send me to a woman’s jail. As soon I get in there, you know what I’mma be doing. ‘Give me your fruit cocktail, b-tch, before I knock your motherf-cking teeth out. I’m a girl, just like you, b-tch.”
Funnily enough, Chappelle insisted at the start of the gig that he wasn’t going to make fun of trans people anymore, but that was apparently a joke in itself:
“If you guys came here to this show tonight thinking I’m gonna make fun of those people again, I’m not f-cking with those people anymore. It wasn’t worth the trouble. I ain’t saying sh-t about trans people. Maybe three or four times, but that is it.”
He then said he was going to transition (lol) to joking about “handicapped” people instead because “they’re not as organized as the gays. And I love punching down.”
