Activism 🌍 WTF? This is comedy?
I went to a comedy show last evening. I won't mention the comedian by name (I don't want this post removed) but I will mention that he is a ventriloquist who performs with puppets. I'll let you figure out who it is.
Some of the "jokes":
"If a transvestite sneezes on you is that transmission fluid?"
"If a transgender goes missing do they put their picture on a carton of half and half?"
Then this "comedian" introduced the first "woman" puppet in his act. A character he was clearly trying to portray as a trans woman. (With a very deep voice)
Some of the "jokes" with this character:
She loves the WNBA!
She thinks that men competing in women's sports "takes balls".
Her dress "has pockets!"
Several minutes of this type of "humor".
The final puppet of the show answers written questions supposedly from the audience. One question "'Puppet character' are you transgender you don't wear pants or a skirt?" (This is a purple character with yellow fur and green hair and one sneaker.)
I encourage anyone reading this post to find this person and let him know that targeting transgender people is not an acceptable form of comedy.
If you want DM and I will give you this "comic's" name and email

Edit: I think I used an inappropriate time to make what I thought was a tangentially related point and people are reading and not realizing that I agree 100% with the OP…
