My Thoughts of the Dave Chappelle Thing as a Trans Person
The Dave Chappelle story is odd, the language he used in his set especially: "Trans people will make up words to win an argument," shows me if he is an ally like Daphne Dorman's family says he is, he isn't a very good one. Trans people, like myself, just want to be seen for who we are not what we were assigned at born or what is betwixed our legs. Dave being "Down with the terfs" doesn't offended but it shows me what kind of person he is and in opinion that is not an ally for Trans people.
I'm not saying he should be canceled and I'm not saying that what he has done for Daphne isn't good or sound. Although that is my opinions! I literally heard about this story when Watching the Philip Defranco show today and thought I would say something in the comments but that did in fact turn into a disaster! I barely knew that everyone "involved" existed before hearing the story!
