I am of so many different minds on issues like this. The first thing that is on my mind is your casual dismissal of this sentence, "With 2021 on track to be the deadliest year on record for transgender people in the United States" you really show yourself to be just as petty as the people you are complaining about. I mean if people are still killing Trans people obviously people still care. Hell, you proved you care by taking the time to right this blog. We all know how you feel about Trans people so there really isn't any point in wondering why you dismiss this so easily.

The next point is I hate how offended people get over jokes. It's become obvious Dave has some opinions on Trans people that probably don't walk the PC line, but jokes are probably the least offensive way to get those opinions out in the open to have a conversation about. And they usually come from a place of love or at least acceptance. I don't see any malice in any of this. And I've watched every DC special up to this one. I will probably watch this one too at some point.

My last point though is that DC did this on purpose. This isn't the first time he has joked about trans people. He knew what the response would be. Yet here we are with everyone talking about his special...Almost like he planned it.
