Is there anything worse than comedians putting out an indie drama? I guess there is. They can put out an indie drama that lectures you about transgenderism.
Just check out Will Ferrell’s new whatever this is coming soon to Netflix.

While we’ve only gotten an insufferable trailer for this Indie Doc/Buddy Comedy so far, you can already tell what it’s going to be. Ferrell and his old pal go on a road trip through Trump’s America, but the real journey is the friends they made along the way. Eye roll.
The trailer shows them at Walmart, at a dive bar, a rally car race — you know, all the places you’d expect to find Anti-Trans Hate™ — but brief glimpses show everyone being perfectly friendly. So the message is likely to be: see, Americans love trans people, it’s perfectly natural; it’s just those bad MAGA extremists ruining it for the rest of us.
To this end, it’s sure to be jam packed with orchestrated set-backs, “discrimination,” “trauma” and melodramatic monologues about “identity” and the “real me.”
“I love this country so much, I just don’t know if it loves me back right now,” says the guy wearing a dress in the trailer.
No dude, we don’t care what weird sex fetish you have on your own time. Just stop shoving it down our throats on TV.
