It doesn’t get more directly transphobic than Gervais’ set. “The LGBTQ community and our allies have made it very clear that so-called comedians who spew hate in place of humor, and the media companies who give them a platform, will be held accountable.” “While Netflix is home to some groundbreaking LGBTQ shows, it refuses to enforce its own policy in comedy,” the organization wrote. (See: Other Worn Out Netflix Comedian Who Hates Trans People, Dave Chapelle.) GLAAD specifically condemned Netflix’s policy that supposedly prevents content meant to “incite hate or violence,” but how that doesn’t seem to apply to LGBTQ people at the company. While Netflix is home to some groundbreaking LGBTQ shows, it refuses to enforce its own policy in comedy.

“It’s full of graphic, dangerous, anti-trans rants masquerading as jokes. (At least Netflix dropped the special before Pride month.) On Tuesday, after Netflix premiered Gervais’ tired special SuperNature, GLAAD released a statement condemning the streaming service for giving the comedian a platform to share anti-trans and anti-gay rhetoric in the form of quote-unquote comedy. And Netflix, just say you’re okay with anti-LGBTQ content on your platform. Check out My Chem's tour dates and listen to their new single, released last week, " The Foundations of Decay.You can just say you’re a transphobe, Ricky Gervais.
See a tweet from Taylor and others showing both T-shirts below. Kerin Cunningham, the shirt's designer, called it "a bit whimsical, a little bit ironic, and a whole lot stupid in the best way." My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way conceptualized the Boy Zone T-shirt himself. There is also a new shirt bearing an imaginary magazine cover for Boy Zone, in the style of teen heartthrob rags, that labels the band the "saddest boys in the world." Ever!"īut the porn star tattoo T-shirt isn't the only new My Chemical Romance merch item making waves on the band's current tour. Seems reckless now but still zero regrets. hindsight I shouldn't have got a friend to do it, haha. Taylor said of his interactions with the band, "I was just freaking out as fan of the music but also just the fact they even knew me, haha.… was my peak fandom mixed with my rebellious who-gives-a-fuck phase. According to him, the unnamed rocker said they saw the ink in one of his "movies" and "thought it was cool."

Taylor said he first received an email from a band member inquiring about his tattoo. "I had no idea when would drop or if, but it happened and I found out through Twitter which was WILD! The been incredible and it's made the whole situation even more bizarre and fever dream-ish haha. "Honestly the whole thing has been a pleasure," Taylor told the LGBTQ+ outlet Them. In the garment's image, he's standing and wearing only white briefs as he displays the unsteady-looking art that was clearly inked by an amateur.

In keeping with My Chemical Romance's constant nods to their listeners, plus their unending support for queer fans, the band got Taylor to take new photos of his tat for the shirt. That would be Mickey Taylor, now a musician and animation student but formerly a sex worker who was the subject of the original pic. The person on the garment is the same person from the post. As it turns out, the new shirt and the post are indeed connected.
