<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/comedian">Comedian</a> Michelle Buteau went after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/dave-chappelle">Dave Chappelle</a> for daring to joke about <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender">transgender</a> people. 
The 47-year-old New Jersey native, who has appeared in Hollywood films and reality TV shows, made the remarks during her new Netflix comedy special, &#8220;Michelle Buteau: A Buteau-ful Mind at Radio City Music Hall.&#8221;
Buteau’s set included a graphic joke about her &#8220;beautiful, black, lesbian friend,” which she submitted as an example of how comedians should joke about people who fall under the LGBT acronym.
&#8220;What I’m saying is it can be done. It can be done. We can tell jokes and stories and not disparage a whole community,&#8221; Buteau said, per <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/01/entertainment/michelle-buteau-dave-chappelle/index.html">CNN</a>. &#8220;We can do that, we can make it funny. You just have to work at it, right? So if you guys ever run into Dave Chappelle, can you let him know that sh**?”
Buteau said she doesn’t think she will ever run into Chappelle “because he is the GOAT.”
“And he is the GOAT, if that means going off about trans people. Dave, it’s not funny. It’s dangerous,” the comedian went on. “I can’t believe somebody would make millions and millions of dollars for making people feel unsafe. That is so wild to me.”
Buteau said she wants “to make millions and millions of dollars for making people feel safe, seen, secure, heard, and entertained.”
Chappelle was ripped in 2021 for making jokes that the mainstream media and others deemed “transphobic” in his Netflix comedy special “The Closer.” 
Leftists were so enraged that one transgender employee reportedly organized a walkout in protest. That person was later <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dave-chappelle-wins-grammy-award-for-netflix-special-that-enraged-trans-people">fired</a> for “sharing confidential, commercially sensitive information outside the company.”
In his Netflix special, Chappelle claimed to be “team TERF,” an acronym for trans-exclusionary radical feminist. He defended J.K. Rowling’s stance that biological sex that men cannot be women.
Chappelle went on to win a Grammy Award for “The Closer.”
