Dave Chappelle has released a new Netflix special, The Dreamer, which is full of jokes about the trans community and disabled people.

“I love punching down!” he tells the audience, in a one-hour show that landed on the streaming service today (31 December).

It’s his seventh special for Netflix and comes two years after his last one, the highly controversial release The Closer.

That programme was criticised for its relentless jokes about the trans community, and Chappelle revisits the topic in his new show.

He tells jokes about trans women in prison, and about trans people “pretending” to be somebody they are not.

    He left because his father died, I guess he should have stayed to make grape drank jokes for you? This is his current audience, notice all the black people? I guess that’s “much worse” to you according to your own words. Your racism is showing.

      Bigots come in all colours. Calling the OP a racist for calling his bigot audience worse than before is pretty low.
