That wasnt a joke. I dont get your countrys law about racism. Which makes sense since it a stupid law thats vague on purpose, so the government can just arrest whoever they want and blame it on some hard to understand law. |
So if it wasn't I joke, you were serious when you said you think comedians are fine here? I thought you were being sarcastic.Â
Anyways, you can't call the law hard to understand when you didn't even read it. And stupid is letting people spread their racist ideologic views under the façade of "it's a joke". Soon enough, I'll be living in a society with tons of people that think that maybe there's some truth in that "harmless" joke, and when you less expect the joke will be fun because "it turns out it is actually true". I bet a lot of people who voted for Trump in the US used to find funny a lot of jokes about immigrants and trans people. From where I stand, I wouldn't like to be an immigrant or a trans guy over there

Thats ridiculous. Every joke can be offensive to someone. Just because you find something offensive doesnt mean it should be illegal. You are not supposed to take a comedian serious. Thats kinda the point. They say outrageous stuff and we as an audience laugh because we know its wrong. Its how dark comedy works. The fact that you think there will be chaos because people like dark jokes, then I think you are reading too much into it.
Also the fact that certain things should be considered above being made fun of is a very slippery slope.
