Dave Chappelle seemingly spoke out in support of author J.K. Rowling during a rant on his Netflix special that courted even more controversy with the transgender community.
Rowling was labeled a "TERF" which stands for "trans-exclusionary radical feminist," essentially a term for people who call themselves feminists while still being transphobic.
"They canceled J.K. Rowling – my God," Chappelle says in his special. "Effectively, she said gender was a fact, the trans community got mad as (expletive), they started calling her a TERF."
