Anything else that should be kept out of comedy while we're at it?

Sexism, Homophobia, Transphobia, anti semitism, body shaming, jokes about disabilities or illnesses just to name a few of the top of my head.

The southern accent isnt racist but i think the victim is lying to conver the guys tracks.

Making fun of a southern accent isnt racist but i think that a lie. I belive he said something racist.

Its literally that kind of thinking why its so chaotic in the US right now. People are basically walking on glass trying not to offend anyone. But nah, i'm a racist. LOL 

Lol. The US isnt in a state of chaos and being offensive is more likely to start a problem than not being offensive.

So basically this is racism just because you want to believe so? That pretty much seems like SJW.

So basically comedy that can't even step into offensive territory, regardless of context?  You're basically fitting the mold of the oversensitive milksop people are decrying these days.  

Out of anything people can joke about why does it have to be offensive? It would be better if jokes arent offensive or try to be as un offensive as possible.

About anything can be seem as offensive if you go the route you are going and the oversensitive spining interpretation.
