    I really find this take to be completely low minded. Comedy is more than making a statement and receiving laughs for it. You might say comedy is on a spectrum and offensive humour is ,I’d argue, near the bottom of it. The absolute best comedians are the ones who can take a complex and sensitive topic and have you laughing about it. The worst type of comedian is one who goes full kramer and then gets mad that no one finds it funny. However, fundamentally the quality of a joke is determined by the audience and never by the jester. Joke about anything you want but if no one’s laughing you’re probs just a cunt hiding behind a thin veneer of ‘humour’.

      You missed the point completely. Shit posters DON’T CARE if you find it funny. But they are amazed at those with such empty lives that they would impose their “virtue” on a meaningless shit post. I hope my life never becomes so empty that I am in a constant state of rage as I condemn all that don’t 100% agree with all my view points

        your life is at such a low point where people being annoyed at shit posts bothers you though. such that you feel the need to defend and define what ‘real shitposting’ is and should be about.

        is it really about them? or is about you feeding the trolls.

        Aight chill babe, firstly making the shitpost is as brain dead as the replies to it, we are both wasting time in a very niche corner of the internet. Secondly, I didn’t see this was the shit post community 😅 that’s on me. You do seem a bit prickly for someone ‘making a joke’ though, maybe cos you’re a shitty jester. Now dance little meme monkey, dance and make me more memes to ridicule!
