Well put, far better than if I had tried. I do wish he wasn’t using his platform this way but I can’t help but feel it’s misrepresented. I watched the first part of this special for context and a lot is lost just reading the plain text without his delivery.
If you think he shouldn’t be joking about it at all then that fine, but I think anything can be joked about and he’s trying way better than anyone else making jokes on the topic.
And I hesitated to express that because I truly to do think I’m a good ally and I definitely want to be.

I’m not offended, and don’t care if he makes lowest common denominator trans jokes. I just don’t find the reactionary shtick to be funny.
