And comedians do need to get with the times, like everyone else. Entertainers, politicians, whoever.
They (comedians) love to complain about "pc culture" or "outrage culture" or whatever the fuck, which is just a stylized way of saying "I want to be able to say whatever the fuck I want about the groups of people who have been historically oppressed and have that be okay."
And his comedy is much bigger than jokes about gay and trans people. I'd hope you see that.
Dave's still vocally homophobic (as we saw in the Daniel Caesar debacle). "He looks so gay" That shit is lame as fuck.
Punching down is pushing no boundaries at all. Its pulling the boundaries tighter.
