    Well unfortunately he used his final special to spew transphonic trash. Basically any time he wandered his way into politics it was never good, but he had some amazing jokes when he didn’t.

      I must’ve missed it then. Got a timestamp or link to an example?

        If the things you want to say are transphonic you’re an asshole. Everybody that isn’t just trying to be a dick doesn’t haven’t walk on eggshells when they talk. But if what you are trying to say transphonic shit I don’t feel bad that you have to walk on eggshells, nobody has to listen to bigoted shit, just because you want to say it and I support anything anybody wants to do to make that stop. 🤷

          I agree with you but you keep using “transphonic”. Do you mean transphobic?
