But I like dark humour.

Every day hundreds of sex offenders go to the police station, then they clock in.

Terrible shame that assassination attempt on Trump. Just a little to the right and we would be having a party right now.

    I find it amazing as a country with the right to bear arms, you're all such a shit shot. When it comes to Ronald.

    AR-15 style rifles aren't HPRs. 500 meters is long range.

    Our active gunmen are not gun enthusiasts. They don't squeeze a thousand rounds on the range to get good with their rifle. They don't hunt.

    They're the equivalent of a would-be vigilante reading up on martial arts techniques and practicing a dozen reps before going out on the street to get curb stomped.

    Well with the first one the dumbass didn't have a scope and was aiming for the head. Though in the defense of going for head instead of center mass it's possible he figure Trump had body armor, would be kinda hard to tell with how much mass he has.

    So he hadn't announced Vance as his VP pick.. What would have happened if justice had been served that day. Would Kamala Harris run unopposed?

    Would Kamala Harris run unopposed?

    Definitely not. The convention would still have happened and a candidate would have been nominated to run. The timeline and internal party politics would have been drastically altered, though.

    Even if the Repubs didn't nominate someone, there were still third parties running that would have probably just filled the void.

    No no, they're not considering suicide, they're just applying to pilot those F-18 submarines!

    What's a good joke that would upset the "yell-at-the-strawman-inside-my-truck" crowd?

    I'm not sure internally I ever moved past my edgy humor highschool self who made immature, sarcastic, and super past the line jokes

    I'm also a damn dirty commie so yeah I'd laugh at it

    I still enjoy many dark jokes internally too, but I definitely don’t share them with as wide an audience as I used to- I’ll make a joke about priests molesting kids to my husband, close friends, or immediate family, but I know that I can’t generally know who has been impacted by that, and I’m not trying to fuck up someone’s day with a flip joke.

    I also don’t enjoy dead baby jokes nearly as much as I used to, because I’ve now known several people who’ve had a late miscarriage or stillbirth, or whose children died, and I can’t separate the punchline from the image of their faces while grieving or talking about the loss. I still like dark humor about things that directly impacted me, but for things that only happened to loved ones, I can’t see the humor anymore.

    Make a joke about Trump and suddenly they want to fist-fight you.

    Humor about race or gender in the post-Trump era is typically about expressing racism or anti-trans sentiments as a means of virtue signaling they are MAGA. The racism is the joke. The transphobia is the joke.

    And if you don't get it. You're not part of the MAGA movement (and therefore, according to them, an NPC).

    I appreciate a lot of race or gender humor this decade. It just takes some genuine inside knowledge to pull off and that's not what edgelords are about. Their humor is for reducing complexity and making people alien.

    Whenever you make jokes about the military you always start with the marine core. Why? Beca by the time you're done they've understood the first line.

    Love this 'song'. Full of armed services jokes. What does MARINE stand for? Muscles Are Required Intelligence Not Essential.

    TBF I always enjoyed the USMC's humor towards themselves. I don't think anyone burns them harder they do and they go way low, like having drill chants about disintegrating marriages and Jody fucking their wives

    Very interesting to hear about how certain institutions assimilate their members. I'd say that kind of joking is preparing them to be less emotional about their situation since they're all going through it.

    I'm very curious about what medical schools do to turn people into highly respected doctors and make them believe they can work well without proper sleep.

    People get mad when I decide to act on "I choose the lives if Iranian civilians over the lives of US soldiers". There's no joke there but I don't see people joking about civilians getting to live another day because troops moral is so low

    Sounds like you're confusing "clearly conservative" people with "I have a dark sense of humor" people but I'm not sure there's much overlap, if any.

    Way back in the day, when I still (barely) used Facebook (might've been my late teen years or early 20s, so early-mid last decade), a friend invited me to a group for "dark humor". Pretttttty much every 3rd post was about black people. You can get away with it a bit easier here because we only have like 3 of them, but it did not take long to figure out that "dark humor" for these people means "I'm allowed to make fun of minorities because it's a joke". I was expecting much wilder jokes, but nah. Garden variety racism.
