Comedian Dave Chappelle pissed off the LGBTQ+ community with jokes calling out "cancel culture."
Now they're calling for Netflix to drop his highly-anticipated comedian film The Closer. So far the company is sticking with Chappelle and they're calling for a boycott.
One of the greatest comedians in modern history, Dave Khari Webber Chappelle is a stand-up comedian, actor, writer, producer and satirist. He often is controversial in how he addresses American culture and politics.
It appears in one of the moments, he made remarks about transgender Americans.
"Gender is fact," said Chappelle. "Every human being in this room, every human being on earth, had to pass through the legs of a woman to be on earth. That is a fact."
Those remarks came in regards to embattled rapper DaBaby and writer J.K. Rowling, who faced boycotts and the ire of American consumers.
Chappelle said that Americans outraged over comments by DaBaby aren't concerned about the fact he literally killed a man in a suburban Charlotte Walmart. The entertainer got into a scuffle with two men inside a Walmart and he fired upon them. One was gravely injured. He was not criminally charged for murder citing self-defense. He was charged for having a weapon under disability in a misdemeanor.

Netflix defended the comedian and said they're looking forward to entertaining viewers of The Closer.
In an email released by Netflix, the co-chief executive officer responded to the backlash by writing, "We know that a number of you have been left angry, disappointed and hurt by our decision to put Dave Chappelle's latest special on Netflix. With The Closer, we understand that the concern is not about offensive-to-some content but titles which could increase real world harm (such as further marginalizing already marginalized groups, hate, violence etc.). While some employees disagree, we have a strong belief that content on screen doesn't directly translate to real-world harm."
One employee literally suspended but later reinstated after she attended a virtual meeting without notifying that she was there. Terra Field, said that it was her decision to tell CEO Ted Sarandos that the trans0community are not pawns and she will lead a walkout in regards to Netflix.
GLAAD has said that decision to keep The Closer on was disappointing and they vow that a boycott will be implicated if the network goes forth.
Chappelle lives in Yellow Springs, Ohio, a politically progressive community in Greene County, Ohio.
Two men were allegedly urinating on his property. Two men, an 18-year old and a 28-year old, were citied with criminal mischief. They admitted crawling under the gate and defecating on his property.
A neighbor saw them and called 9-1-1. They were caught and admitted to urinating on the property.
The Greene County Sheriff arrested the two and detained two others. They were banned from the property and ordered to pay a fine with two years probation
