Addendum #WebsitePinkNewsCharlieDuncan "Comedian Hannah Gadsby has been attacked by a host of trolls for a 2018 tweet, in which they referred to the late Barry Humphries as an 'inhumane d**k biscuit'.
Humphries, who died on Saturday (April 22) at the age of 89, left a mixed legacy. On one hand, the Australian entertainer found stardom with his violet-haired drag persona, Dame Edna Everage. On the other, a repeated history of transphobia left many fans disappointed in a man they believed to be a lover of liberty. ...
In a 2018 tweet, Hannah Gadsby said that Barry Humphries was losing his touch as a comedian, and was someone who 'hates vulnerable minorities, and [had] completely lost the ability to read the room.'
The tweet continued: 'That's not a comedian, that's an irrelevant, inhumane d**k biscuit of the highest order.'
The tweet hung in the ether before Australian entertainment journalist Peter Ford posted a screenshot of it following the news of Humphries' death. ...
Ford's tweet has prompted a backlash against Gadsby."
