In reference to my earlier post about humor.
Insult humor is not subjective. Just insulting.
I am a fan of George Carlin @Clintudy so I've heard his work. You need to pay attention to WHO Mr. Carlin makes fun of, because I never heard him "punch down for a laugh."
@Clintudy Making fun of people is bullying. If you enjoy insult humor, you actually enjoy being mean. Especially when your target is someone who already is treated like sh*t by society. That's punching down, not up.
Humor isn't subjective when it's mean to people who already are treated badly.

Every time you speak up on social media, telling someone what they posted wasn't funny, that those words were not a "joke" and actually hurts people, you teach them that society will no longer tolerate Hate.
Thank you, my friend for speaking up for me and others. It makes a difference.
We all want to be heard.
How often do we listen?
@robfwtx If it's news to you that you made fun of me you need some empathy and some self-awareness, sir.
AS it is not my job to educate anyone on social media on how not to be insulting to others, I shall prefer that until you do learn why making a fart joke to a serious post made by a stranger to you insulting, please do not respond to any other posts from me.
Goodbye.
@robfwtx Oh, I'm overracting to you making fun of me?
Replying to my post with a fart joke isn't supposed to make me feel bad?
You just expect me to tolerate being made into a joke from someone who doesn't know me?
Is that what you expected? To get away with hurting me? Sorry. I don't let people do that to me without telling them.
Next time, perhaps, you'll pause and think before you make a fart joke out of the blue to someone's post and choose not be be a bully.
George Santos is evidence that lying appears to be a Republican feature nowadays.
@robfwtx That has nothing to do with my post. If you can't add anything of value to a conversation, instead of annoying people by spouting stupid things like that, please be quiet.
You are not as funny as you think you are doing that.
I'm confused. @robfwtx what? Who's your toots?
Someday, if I keep working, I'll write one of these.
