Matt Walsh is a right wing theocrat, who likes to stand next to fringe progressives
to make his view points seem reasonable by comparison.
his goal is ultimately to damage progressivism and the democratic party
he wants a normal non politically engaged person to think the average democrat
walks around not having any idea how to define woman.
this obviously isn't true.
im someone who is extremely skeptical of gender ideology
I think it's at best incoherent and at worst possibly counterproductive.
but
Matt Walsh I believe said no one should ever be allowed to transition under any circumstances.
There is evidence that there is a population of people that benefit greatly from transition
and trying to deny them that I think is basically just evil.
Like I mentioned, Matt Walsh also labels large swarms of transgender people "groomers" and implies they are existence put kids in danger. And the Democratic Party and their allies are trying to silence people that speak of this supposed "truth"
When we people talk about rhetoric that might result in something bad happening to trans people, I feel folk like Walsh is a way better example of that than Dave's jokes.
That is the type of rhetoric I think is dangerous because we already have examples of people falling for these online conspiracy theories and acting out as a result.
I honestly wish more attention was paid to stuff like that because that is the type of talk that creates a sentiment that could result in someone getting hurt or dying. Either through a lunatic acting out, or conservatives stripping transgender people of Medicaid eligibility (not just to transition, but all coverage)
I think Dave Chapelle is a self-absorbed emotional dude that can't let something go. I think Matt Walsh is a bad actor that is a fundamentally cruel person
Even the video posted. He is on the Austrialian version of Fox News, talking to a right-wing commentator, pushing his heavily edited "documentary", mostly misrepresenting what his political opponents think. His work is not meant to be informative or grapple with serious issues in good faith. They are essentially propaganda pieces
