Dave Chappelle has responded to the backlash from his latest Netflix special, The Closer.
The remark directed at Gadsby is a reply to the comedian’s recent criticism of Chappelle and Netflix for airing the special which she labelled “hate speech”.
In the comedy special, Chappelle declares himself “team TERF” (which stands for trans-exclusionary radical feminist) and makes a number of jokes many have considered “transphobic”.
I say that because I respect them deeply, and I love the contribution they have at Netflix.
