Well, to make it, you need money and therefore an investor and you won't convince anyone with "it" anymore

I’m not usually not in either camp, but sometimes you see a post and you just know the type of people it will attract regardless of OPs intentions.

Funny how most people want their opinions to be respected while not respecting anyone else's.
-
Indeed, if someone gets a little butthurt due to a simple joke, it ain't your fault they shoved it up their own asses.

Naaah fam, if you get hurt it's your choice to hurt back.

This curiously says a lot about our current social sphere.

I see what you did there

To me, the biggest danger is people being “scared to talk about” a subject. This applies both to the comedian thinking of making a joke about X demographic, and also the member of X demographic unsure whether to voice how bad the joke made them feel.
Say the second guy condemns the comedian with an ultimate mic drop moment, so the comedian just shuts up and only talks the subject with an echo chamber of bigots who’ve had similar experiences.
Or, the second guy shuts up forever, and when the first guy runs for president on a platform of stopping the orphan crushing machine, the second guy thinks “Man, fuck that guy” and votes against him.
There’s definitely a much better median where they bring up the discontent in a gentle prompt - only escalating if they’re ignored. It takes two though, and the comedian would have to be okay with saying “Okay, I apologize.” That part is hard; with so much anonymous interaction now it feels rare for anyone to humbly admit fault.

It obviously hit home with the bored loser, since they picked it for one of their latest account names lmmfao
(seriously though, the mods of this community need to get a grip on this spam)

idk that's still funny.

like what

Like it's all just a ego contest and in the end it doesn't really matter who's right and who's wrong, in the end all that matters is that one or the other will get enough social pressure to make the other one shut up.
In this day and age, people argue over everything from the most basic stuff all the way to the most ridiculous stuff
-
is that in the comic though or are you projecting your existing opinion on the vague topic of online arguments? does the comic say all arguments are bad? I is discussing the offensiveness of a joke bad? is it bad when to many people argue at once?
doesn't seem like there's much of anything deeper than "what's the deal with airline food?" type material that expects the audience to make the statement in their mind than actually saying anything itself.
