Punching down requires you to consider yourself superior to another group.
@DaveChappelle
doesn't consider himself better than me in any way. He isn't punching up or punching down. He's punching lines. That's his job and he's a master of his craft.

asked for my consent before he reached up my skirt. And I'm all like, "I don't know. I was too busy sucking his big, comedy dick." 🤪

You guys, I never used to believe in ghosts but now I definitely do. Sometimes, when I get home late at night, I see this little, old woman in the dark who yells things like, "Get out. You're drunk. You live next door." It's so creepy. 🤪👻
Guys, I solved climate change!!
All we have to do is drop my ex in the ocean and let her cold, dead heart cool things down. Kind of a "two birds with one stone" situation, really. 🤪
@SmhBreh
As the transwoman he talks about in the epilogue, I'll tell you that he 100% supports trans people. And the LGBT community. Comedy isn't a documentary or a sermon or a Ted talk. It's comedy.
I don't understand why

doesn't force you to authenticate when you turn OFF your iPhone. I rarely turn it off so it wouldn't be a big deal if I had to type my password when I did. Then, if it was lost or stolen, I'd have at least as long as the battery lasts to track it. 🤷♀️
Sheesh! All this talk about the LGBT agenda. Guys, have you ever seen one of us getting ready for a party? Trust me, even if we had an agenda, you have plenty of time. 🤪

Look,
@Apple
isn't gonna change this anytime soon, so can we all just agree that the curse word is "ducking" from now on? I'm tired of changing that D to an F over and over again.

1,612 days ago, I introduced my authentic self to the world. Over the course of those four years, four months, and 29 days, I've learned more about myself and this world than I ever dreamt…
Friend: You're such a drama queen.

Did you see the epilogue to
#SticksAndStones
. I'm the Daphne he talks about and I gotta tell you, he's not just a master of his craft, he's kind and considerate and respectful. It's sad that people have lost the ability to laugh, to see the difference between reality and comedy.

Dave Chappelle accepted me enough to feature me in his special. He bought me a drink. We exchanged jokes for hours. I felt accepted. AND, fuck everybody else. I don't need his acceptance or yours or anybody else's. None of us should.
@littlered_ace
I'm the Daphne he talks about in The Epilogue. I didn't die either. I had an amazing time working with him. He's a genius and a master of his craft.
@mxSpookyghost
🙄 To be clear, so I understand you here, you're insulting me for not seeing this situation the same as you...which is what you're accusing Dave of. Interesting take, to be sure. Best of luck to you. Hope you find a better outlet for your rage issues. I won't be engaging further.

Exactly. There's funny things about being trans, just like every other kind of life. It's one thing to not find the jokes funny but it's another to believe he's transphobic. I think he's a genius, a true master of the craft.
@DanaVivianWhite
Or maybe he sees our courage too and doesn't consider it "punching down." Maybe, just maybe, he thinks we're all equal and being equal means we should all be able to joke and be joked about. 🤔

If you're not black, don't talk about black people. If you're not male, don't talk about males. If you're not a comedian, don't talk about comedians. 🙄🤦♀️ I'm the Daphne he talks about in his Epilogue. He's a master of his craft. A true genius.

Punching down requires him to consider himself superior and I don't think he feels that way. As the Daphne he talks about in the epilogue of
#StickAndStones
, I'll tell you that I felt like an equal, free to joke about about him and free to be joked about by him.

Your tweet is dishonest, incorrect at best. And you're missing the point: he's not looking for absolution. He's not seeking your approval or acceptance either. He's not trying to be some moral guide; he's a comic, a philosopher. He's providing insight about our world.
