    And still highly problematic to deliver such hateful imagery.

      Nope, a controversial joke is either funny enough to overcome its controversial nature or it isnt.

      Its not problematic, its just not funny enough.

        In the context of the comment you’re defending, it isn’t clear whether it is a joke.

        Also, making such “jokes” in contexts like these, still carry a hateful message. If you don’t mean it and don’t want to shit on people like that, then simply don’t do it. It doesn’t get better to defend it as a “joke” as it is not clear what the true intentions are. As such “jokes” can also form opinions / views about some topic, it is reckless not to mind the hazards created by such “jokes”. Furthermore, stuff like this is often seen in Motte-and-bailey fallacies.

        What’s next? Laughing about all the Jews who were gased by Nazis? Or all the vicitims in Ukraine who get fucked in the ass by Russia?

        I think, there are some clear lines.
