Look at it another way, jokes and transgressions will help heal a societal divide, prudish perpetual victim status will widen the divide. One is inclusive (I'm a joke, and so are you!), the other is exclusive (You cannot joke about that).

Nah, I'll let those directly negativity affected by transphobia decide if it's okay. Otherwise it's just my privilege distorting things.

Boston Pride is one of the longest running gay festivals in the world, having started in a very different era - like, 1971 different - and should be celebrating its 59th anniversary this year.
It won’t be, because same-sex attraction is a hate crime, and sex doesn’t exist anyway, and the focus of any community event should obviously be defunding the police. Cancelled. Not just the parade - the 50-year-old gay pride org behind it has been shut down. |

It's not much different in NZ. Being Asian is especially difficult if you're gay in Auckland.

So what you’re saying is… you DON’T think the police should be defunded?

The NSW "Fixated Persons Unit" definitely needs to be! I had to double-check that was actually a real thing.

even better: the competition submissions were made and judged anonymously. So an anonymous author won a prize for literature, and it turned out that the author was a woman, who was three men.

Classic identification with the aggressor:
https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreak...esters_at_the/ Warning: may evoke rage. This is the thing right, we don't get to oppress groups and then expect them to be all polite and grateful once they get out from under it. In all cases we're human. Organisms that make decisions not via some kind of logical flow chart, but as a consequence of a biopsychosocial stew.

Mentally scanning through The Closer in my head, it was
Joke about sexual abuse survivors Joke about Jews Joke about Asians Joke about black Americans Joke about white Americans Joke about gays Joke about lesbians Joke about trans people ***BOOM*** With one exception those jokes were only in there to not provoke a reaction. They were anti-jokes. Chappelle is so good that this is the point he was making. The reaction to his show after the show is part of the show. No-one is calling for Chappelle to be cancelled for being a paedophile, or an anti-Semite, or a racist, or a homophobe. |

It's funny because the trans person leading the charge to cancel Chappelle is white

Frankly if every comedian that dumped on others were eliminated from being a comedian, probably 2/3rds of them would be gone.

Once you realise he’s not a comedian and he’s not peddling humour, it becomes easier to understand.

I'm sure it's been said before, but instead of yeeting anyone that doesn't give a compliant enough answer, "the left" would gain a lot more traction if they would take the approach of "great start, now here's where you could improve your points even further" rather than ranting like fucking lunatics. That shit should be for the far left, if that.

Summary of an awful awful story: Trans student rapes a girl in a US school toilet School staff decide to handle the issue "internally"; that is, without the police Victim's father protests and demands that the school call the police, shit gets heated School calls the police... on the father School attempts to avoid publicity by shuffling the trans student off to another school Trans student rapes someone at that school too Everyone looks the other way because girls being in danger from males in female spaces is a myth |

that's the price of democracy, you have to deal with the fact that somewhere someone is saying something you don't agree with
|

University halls are somewhere specific.
Democracy doesn't mean we can't have places of legitimacy, places where authority is earned by way of demonstrated disciplined effort. People have more places than ever to say something. The halls of our universities don't need to be opened up as well. People are still free to yell from outside any halls they're excluded from.
