tfw you say the n word 15 times and are still oppressed, exploited and doomed
This quote is annoyingly relevant to this day:
“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
It’s the classic of asking people who make unironically sexist jokes to explain what exactly makes it funny.
They tend to either shut up in embarrassment or start talking about how you just don’t “get” the humor and try to move on. Because they know they can’t explain it without looking like an asshole.
This comment has stuck with me the past few days. Top of the post by a wide margin. Apologists in the comments saying it’s meta-humor to just repeat sexist jokes with no indication that they’re terrible.
I’m of the belief that if you let that kind of shit go, ESPECIALLY on a meme sub, you turn into a toxic cesspit very very quickly.

“Hey man, you’re being kind of loud, could you keep it down?”
“On the quiet-loud spectrum I’ve lived most of my life towards the center, maybe even leaning more towards quiet, but all these people asking me to tone it down has caused me to shift my views heavily towards being a loud asshole. This is your fault for impossing all these rules and restrictions on my life!”
Right wing humor is hate speech.
I actually just watched a really well done YouTube video by Some More News last night about this very topic. Their ultimate conclusion is mostly the same and they show how it has changed so much in recent years and include various examples (as well as examples of how liberal humor differs).
