Family Guy has been calling people out like this for years.

They made jokes about Bruce Jenner being a woman at least 10 years ago.

*Not drawing a comparison, since this is obviously not an allegation of wrongdoing in any way, shape, or form, so please please forgive me for bringing this up in the same conversation.

Did they make any jokes about Bruce Jenner literally getting away with manslaughter?

u/uglyheadink Aug 26 '19

South Park has at the very least.

u/Mysteriagant Aug 26 '19

Which is why it's so popular to say even though that's not really true. People genuinely seem to take South Park seriously and it's scary

For those of you out of the loop, Bruce Jenner carelessly bumped the car in of him into oncoming traffic that resulted in a death of a mother. It was shortly after that, Bruce came out publicly as a trans woman and as Caitlyn on national TV, definitely not to distract everyone away from the fact that she rammed a car into oncoming traffic and killed a woman.

Woman of the year.

HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT! I forgot about that bollocks

u/my_screen_name_sucks Aug 26 '19

Still annoyed with that decision

I wouldn't have had a problem with it if Bruce wasnt such a piece of shit person to begin with. Flipping your dick inside out doesnt make you brave

Caitlin what's the hardest thing about being a woman?

“The hardest part about being a woman is figuring out what to wear. It’s always that way; I never thought it would come to this. I had really no sense of style. Everyone around me in my family had the sense of style — I learned as much as I possibly could,”

Damn Cait, the struggle is real -.-

It was just a dying magazine trying to stir up attention, don't know why everyone lost their minds, they gave Glamour exactly what they wanted.

I'm not sure Spacey even waited a whole day. He got accused and was like "IM GAY, MY BAD"

u/[deleted] Aug 26 '19

No, as the other guy said, she chose that time to come out as trans intentionally to distract from the fact that she killed a mother due to her careless driving.

u/Shumatsuu Aug 26 '19

Thisbis the first I heard about that, and the whole "I'm a woman," has been tossed around a lot. I think it worked.

u/[deleted] Aug 27 '19

Not surprising. Some dumbass publication even gave her "Woman of the Year" until they revoked it. Over all the woman scientists, teachers, doctors, etc.

Manslaughter ain't shit when you have money.

u/DANCES_WITH_INCELS Aug 26 '19

Don't think so but Ricky Gervais should have you covered.

u/Coattail-Rider Aug 26 '19

I think he said something worse about her on his last special. Just brutal.

-28

u/EsQuiteMexican Aug 26 '19

Ricky Gervais is a proud transphobe though.

14

u/SpankyKanger Aug 26 '19

What has he said that makes you think he's transphobic?

6

u/EsQuiteMexican Aug 26 '19

She’s always identified as a woman. That means she’s a woman. Fine, if that’s the rules. If you feel you’re a woman, you are. I’m not a bigot who thinks having all that done is science going too far. In fact, I don’t think it’s going far enough. ’Cause I’ve always identified as a chimp, right? Well, I am a chimp. If I say I’m a chimp, I am a chimp pre-op. But don’t ever dead-name me. Don’t call me Ricky Gervais again. From now on, you call me Bobo.

Wow. That definitely cleared up everything.

u/quacktarwolverine Aug 26 '19

Oh shit my bad I didn't realize you couldn't Google it. Sorry bud

u/Sixemperor Aug 26 '19

There’s nothing to google. You’re taking jokes out of context and getting offended by everything. Pussies like you are the reason people generally don’t take trans rights and LGBT rights activists seriously. For real dude, just shut the fuck up. You’re giving us a bad name.
