You can make fun of people without making fun of their very foundations of a person. You can make fun of people for having shitty personalities, but there are just some things you can and should not make fun of. One of those is a persons sexual orientation. Another is their race. Let me reiterate this for YOU. IT WAS NOT A FUNNY JOKE. It was offensive, and it was inexcusable. Plenty of comedians can and are funny without being misogynistic, transphobic, sexist, racist, etc. There are plenty of people on this Earth who are funny without being nasty people. Hey there's a subset of people who think racist jokes are funny. We can't condemn what they say right? They definitely should be able to put that humor out there for all to see so that their audience can get a laugh and feel good about themselves right? When you excuse this type of behavior, it doesn't stop here.

  • That is called freedom. In America jokes and stuff like that, no matter how offensive and to who, are protected by our fundamental rights. As is your right to speak out against them. And yes, some racial (all races) jokes are funny. Just as some religious jokes, homosexual jokes, and knock knock jokes. I am guessing that you are in your 20's and when you are in your 20's liberalism is exciting. It's when you get more life experience that you realize how idiotic it all really is. Live your life dude. Don't worry about social injustice. It will always be there.

  • Freedom of Speech does not mean that a person can be as rude and insulting as they want and no one is allowed to get angry with them, or enact social consequences upon them. Freedom of Speech protects you from LEGAL ramifications of your actions, that's it. You can even be fired from your job for saying offensive things on social media. I love how people believe Freedom of Speech means Freedom to be an Jerk without consequence, it doesn't. Besides as I said, doesn't matter if it was a joke, it was offensive.

    You are a fully indoctrinated drone, spouting the rhetoric of your so called leaders. Nobody cares what you think or feel. I have too few rotations on this tiny blue dot left to worry even a second about what offends anybody else. Muted for epic stupidity.
