You have to be just the ultimate asshole to think this is funny. When he did the equivalent of “my best friend is trans” qualifier on stage, the rabbit hole he went down became pretty obvious. He’s so talented that he doesn’t have a single person who can give him feedback. I guarantee you he’s surrounded by yes men and other comedians who are too chicken shit to say anything. Money and power corrupt always.
