A great man once said “people that get offended by jokes….are fucking stupid”

 

[Loochquake]

Was that great man you?

What about when someone just says something unfunny and racist and then when you call them out they say "uh it was just a joke snowflake" even tho no one laughed

no because that’s not a joke, jokes have punchlines. I’ll add to it and people that call hate speech jokes are even stupider

 

[Professor Booty]

nope

 

[Chris]

But then you have to be the joke police

 

[Professor Booty]

That’s fine

 

[Professor Booty]

Being offended is a waste of energy and time 90% of the time

 

[Chris]

I think it would be easier to just say people can be upset with jokes than to say "all jokes are acceptable and the ones that aren't don't count as jokes" lol

 

[Professor Booty]

That’s your perspective and I have mine

 

[Chris]

But that's just bc debating if something legally counts as a joke sounds more exhausting than just saying someone made a stupid joke that they shouldn't have said lol

 

[Chris]

That’s your perspective and I have mine

yeah it's just minor semantics I'm not coming at you.or anything

 

[Professor Booty]

I think you’re misunderstanding part of my point when I say offended I mean like “this shouldn’t exist and let’s ban this person from talking” not just like that joke wasn’t for me and was stupid

 

[Professor Booty]

People spreading hateful garbage shiiks

 

[Chris]

Yeah I mean I separate being offended vs calling for active censorship lol
