John Mulaney doesn't owe you people shit.
All of you who made him your fantasy boyfriend and got butthurt when he turned out to be a mortal human being that fell off the pedestal you put him on need to wake up and smell the Folgers. He doesn't owe you an explanation for why his marriage failed. Or when it failed. Or when he started dating Olivia Munn. Or why he has a child when he said before he didn't want kids. Just because he makes you laugh on the Internet doesn't mean you know him. You know what he allows you to know, and no more. The fact that his on-stage persona was appealing to you means nothing. It was a persona. Your parasocial relationships are your own problem. Don't visit them on other people.
As for having Dave Chappelle open for him that one time, that was a stupid move on his part. Not just because Chappelle hates trans people but because Chappelle is an unfunny hack who hates everyone. His jokes about everybody are revolting. I don't think Mulaney is transphobic or racist or anti-Semitic or anything else of the like. I think he exhibited poor judgment, and that's it.
I hope he continues on the road of sobriety, and I hope this next stage of his career succeeds. I hope his personal life is successful. I don't kick a man when he's down or trying to stand back up.
