I can’t believe that’s a real joke he told—that’s not even a joke. I honestly haven’t watched any of his polemic ones because I just didn’t care to watch his standup anymore. When he lost his bright, loose energy he used to have during performances, I just wasn’t interested anymore. And now this is how far one of the previous greats has fallen?

You have to be just the ultimate asshole to think this is funny. When he did the equivalent of “my best friend is trans” qualifier on stage, the rabbit hole he went down became pretty obvious. He’s so talented that he doesn’t have a single person who can give him feedback. I guarantee you he’s surrounded by yes men and other comedians who are too chicken shit to say anything. Money and power corrupt always.

It's like a ricky gervais joke without the irony. What we have here is a guy with a grudge. He got cut; now he's lashing out. I'm pretty sure jo rowling did the same thing.

That's just the recycled joke every conservative talking head has told. It's not even creative.

Same joke about bathrooms or sports. "I'll just tell them I'm a woman, hurr durr."

Get new material if you're going to try to be edgy, Dave.

Louis CK can jokes about pedos and yet it is hilarious and generally well-received. This joke gives strong "I identify as an attack helicopter" energy. It is not funny, and he's basically just repeating the shitty talking points of right-wing pundits, and without sarcasm. It is humour-by-applause, it is not meant to be a satirical joke, but to have people who agree applause and cheers.

That's the type of joke someone's uncle would make in the bar after a few too many, or the one you think of and know better than to vocalize it... because it isn't really funny.

why do you think only people who have been trans should be making trans jokes?
