I can't wait till we reach a point in time where we're past the victimhood thing and can all poke fun at each other again

2019-11-29 09:39:10 UTC  

you still can, you just have to stand by it

2019-11-29 09:39:35 UTC  

What I wonder is if the backlash will be we go towards more freedom or right wing Authoritarianism

2019-11-29 09:39:36 UTC  

saying "sorry" for jokes is conceding that you were wrong

2019-11-29 09:39:54 UTC  

very true, is easier when there's less they can target, makes it all the more important when people with louder voices can do it and show how weak the outrage actually is

2019-11-29 09:40:39 UTC  

absolutely, given I have a big love for comedy I don't apologise for jokes just because someone is offended by them. I obviously don't go out of my way to be malicious, I just stand by my own intent, they're the ones choosing to be offended by it at that point

2019-11-29 09:41:17 UTC  

the world seems to have forgotten Hitchens' answer to "I am offended!"

2019-11-29 09:41:21 UTC  

"so what?"

2019-11-29 09:41:25 UTC  

I'd like to hope for freedom, but with the pushing for words being violence, it's going to need to be backlash against more than edgy jokes

2019-11-29 09:41:47 UTC  

When I was younger if someone got actually offended by something that only made it funnier. If someone said something you didn't like you'd hide it otherwise they'd only ramp it up.

2019-11-29 09:41:48 UTC  

That's more or less what I say when someone is offended, it's not my problem if the mean words hurt you

2019-11-29 09:42:08 UTC  

the offense can often be the biggest source of humour in a joke

2019-11-29 09:42:36 UTC  

Yeah racial jokes wouldn't be funny if there was no controversy.

2019-11-29 09:43:27 UTC  

it's like they don't realise the more they take offense at every little thing, the greater the supply of these kinds of jokes to counter them

2019-11-29 09:43:35 UTC  

because people are going to find them ridiculous and soft

2019-11-29 09:44:34 UTC  

Is everyone here new? Are there other rooms or something you are admitted into? what are all those blank recordings?

2019-11-29 09:45:13 UTC  

New people end up in this room

2019-11-29 09:45:23 UTC

2019-11-29 09:49:51 UTC  

that would be a nice addition though, since Sargon sometimes gets asked about the books he's read

2019-11-29 09:50:35 UTC

2019-11-29 09:50:35 UTC
