It's possible to make jokes about sensitive subjects without punching down. Comedians know how, trolls don't know the difference

*Some* comedians know how. Plenty of douchebag comedians around...

Life is less complicated if you just treat everything someone says as an accurate representation of who they are. It almost always is.

"Everyone's so sensitive".... maybe I'm toxic and mean? No that can't be it...

i do agree people are mostly sensitive though. "Trolling" got old pretty quick aswell.

I mean you literally just made a joke where part of the punch line is the quoted string "I hate lgbtq rights", proving that it CAN be funny.

Either you're trolling or you're obtuse. Considering OP's post, trolling is a yikes. If you're just being frustratingly pedantic, hush.
Only if you're being disingenuously thick about it.

Brutally honest people tend to use "honesty" as an excuse to be brutal. Pretending it's a virtue when they're just nasty and bullying.

An internet-poisoned nihilist that finds it funny to rile people up by posting Nazi stuff. Smooth brained idiot garbage.

How am I supposed to respond to this? Some people are smart, stupid, PC-police etc. People find different things funny.

He’s also “reducing his hours” and after today... thank you goodbye
No I just answered “she tells me what to do like she thinks she’s the boss of me” w “she is.” He whines about having small women in charge

Joffrey was a cunt. Poison was his cure.

Tywin was a cunt too, so we can safely say poison and crossbow bolts can both cure being a cunt.

A much more socially acceptable type of cunt though
asanaustralianwhyareyourpostsupsidedown
Yeah but that said, if people want to treat places like imgur as a community. Then comments deserve the response they'd get at the pub. 1/2@
And sometimes just the way something is phrased makes you want to wind someone up.
You'd likely catch a beating for throwing a Nazi salute in the pubs I go to.
Which seems fair. This is what this post was about not where my head was at, wasn't it?

I've never read that. That would be a good summer read.

It is a good book. Like all Vonnegut novels, it's a breezy and fun read until suddenly it gets very real.
Yeah, I read Slaughter House Five a couple of times, Breakfast of Champions and Player Piano. I was a big fan of his in my twenties.
It's a great book, I'd also suggest Cat's Cradle. Or other unread Vonnegut books. I love Vonnegut.

I run into more Marxists and Communists on this site and on Reddit. I don't troll them but I challenge their assumptions. Some get pissed.
The odds of running into a Marxist are vanisingly small. Could those be labels you are missapplying. Socialized medicine isn't communism
That's not what I'm talking about. I used to be a Socialist. I'm talking about people further to the left. Marxists and Communists, folks
I haven't seen many of those here. But I'm Canadian; I think most Americans view centre left as extreme left, and right wing as centre.
that are ideologues of the left. Their thought processes are similar to people on the far Right but they don't promote racism or misogyny.
