Patton Oswalt doubled back Sunday after attempting to have a “nice comment thread” on a photo he posted with longtime friend and fellow comedian Dave Chappelle.
Members of the LGBTQ+ community were not pleased with comedian Dave Chappelle co-signing J.K. Rowling’s transphobic remarks in his new Netflix special.because she said ... gender was a fact,” Chappelle said in the special. “And then the trans community got mad, and they started calling her a TERF. ... I shouldn’t speak on this because I am not a woman, nor am I a trans. But, as we’ve established, I am a feminist. ... I’m team TERF. I agree. I agree, man. Gender is a fact.
“Also, I’ve been carrying a LOT of guilt about friends I’ve cut off, who had views with which I couldn’t agree, or changed in ways I couldn’t live with. Sometimes I wonder — did I and others cutting them off make them dig their heels in deeper, fuel their ignorance with a nitro-boost of resentment and spite?” Oswalt wondered. “I’m an LGBTQ ally. I’m a loyal friend. There’s friction in those traits that I need to reconcile myself.
Oswalt added that he was “sorry, truly sorry” for not considering that his picture with Chappelle would spark feelings of hurt and betrayal in others. He said he’d been doing a lot of back-and-forth on Instagram that day and credited that with guiding his second post. “So easy to think someone ELSE needs growth and miss the need in yourself,” he wrote. “Gonna keep trying.”
