So basically, Hollywood has done this whenever he enters the room.
As well they should! I’m glad to hear he is feeling the consequences.
Now if only hollywood and toy makers would do the same to JK Rowling.
I have such pain in my heart for a guy who just made $24 million and has some inconveniences due to his his bigotry.
Never has there been a greater tragedy!
Also:
Another millionaire celebrity whining about being cancelled in a publication with global reach. Sure Dave, I’m sure you have it soooo hard now compared to all the trans people who are facing torrents of abuse from your fans.
Oh, and he’s willing to meet with the trans employees, but has basically stated he won’t change and will be a jerk to them and gets a whine in about how unfunny Hannah Gadsby is. What a petulant ass.
That gif made me smile. Much needed today, thanks!
Nobody needs to meet with him.
Fuck off, Davey.
Well, that was quick. I guess the whiny little twerp can’t take a joke?
Earlier in that thread:
This definitely sounds like someone who’s willing to have a good-faith discussion about his problems.
Yes, wait several weeks for everyone to get all riled up about trans people calling out his bullshit, then step in and say “no, don’t”.
Also he was pretty fucking clear in what he did say, it’s not like Netflix forced him to spend 20 minutes taking about trans people.
But it is about us, Davey. It is. So don’t try and deflect it onto you vs the corporate interests. The corporate interests are the ones who paid to help you promote bigotry & then supported you afterwards.
Also. What kind of pathetic dude is so insecure that he pays to puts his name on his jacket? Sad.
Look at me. I’m important! Not like you peons.
I’m not a “person” any more, you petty mortals: I’m a brand.
It’s Capitalist Apotheosis.
To the transgender community, I am more than willing to give you an audience, but you will not summon me. I am not bending to anybody’s demands. And if you want to meet with me, I’d be more than willing to, but I have some conditions. First of all, you cannot come if you have not watched my special from beginning to end. You must come to a place of my choosing at a time of my choosing, and thirdly, you must admit that Hannah Gadsby is not funny.
Oh yeah, he’s definitely quadrupling down on “being a piece of shit”. You don’t get to slag off an entire group of people, and then say that you’re willing to talk about it in a way that not only reinforces that you refuse not to be in control of the conversation while also shit-talking an ally of that group who is also a member of the broader group you claim you have absolutely no problem with.
Christ.
The Lion in Winter provides.
Henry II : I’ve come to offer you peace.
Phillip II : [smiles] Piss on your peace.
“It seems like I’m the only one that can’t go to the office anymore.”
Really?
Most people have to go through far more rigorous social conduct trainings for their jobs. This guy? Not at all. Not only not at all, but at the slightest sign of pushback he doubles down, triples down, puts out an hour long burst sewer pipe of unfunny toxicity, and then quadruples down on top of that. And now he’s demanding a platform, even if people don’t wanna hear from him, and even if he sucks at his job.
That was what got me the most about his special. It sucked. It just sucked. It wasn’t funny. And if you like the modern style of stand-up that is more insightful and thought provoking and intelligent, it wasn’t any of those things. It even failed to be edgy. He was coasting on name recognition mostly. If some unknown did a set that sucked that hard, they’d get chased off the stage. And now he’s crying that he deserves a platform even though he sucks?
He has officially outlived his usefulness and it’s time for him to go away.
Since David Chapel can’t be bothered to refer to people by the pronouns that reflect who they are, I’m not sure why we should bother typing out his name.
DC made his bed with the bigots; let him fucking lay in it 'til he rots…
Man who laid down with dogs won’t stop complaining about how itchy he is.
