Dave Chappelle fills Netflix special with jokes about trans and disabled peoplelocked
independent.co.uk
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.

Reminder that Reid Hastings the Netflix founder is a prolific anti union and anti public school pact funder. He is a piece of shit outside of giving chappelle a platform
He also literally said "Netflix is not in the business of speaking truth to power" when he censored The Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj for Saudi Arabia.
What's a "public school pact"? I went to public school and no one ever informed me of any pact!
Fuck! When I saved that orphan from the nobles and someone chanted, "remember the pact" was that what they were talking about‽
I must've been sick that day.
They most likely mean PAC (political action committee), which is just another name for a lobbyist group.
Oh, you must've taken study hall as an elective instead of that Commune With the Old Ones class. I heard it was mislabeled as "Gym Class" so it's understandable.
