The absolute fucking state of this place.
Not trying to flex, only trying to explain. I’ve evidently not done a good enough job of that so left it there.

You type quicker than me and I’m doing other stuff, give me more time to respond, lol.

The thought of someone so rich, powerful and privileged would squirm while they read it is funny. Nothing more, nothing less.

He thinks being a woman / queer / trans is shameful, so I’m rubbing his face in it.

I don’t think those things are shameful, so I’m fine with it.

If you’re saying that you find it just as distasteful then that’s totally valid — jokes are subjective. I’m just explaining why I don’t find it distasteful — for me the meaning changes based on the context. Elon is the target, not women.

To be clear I don’t think it’s bad to be a woman or LGBTQ+.

I just said it has to do with the things you suggested when Elon makes those jokes. They are nasty and totally uncalled for. I also said it is different when those jokes are made about the original person who made the joke and explained why.

What else are you missing?

I’d not heard of this but it sums things up pretty well.

Originally it had something to do with those things, but when made against Elon it is about reaping what you sow and poetic justice.

The context is different and so the meaning is different.

With jokes, the meaning is not always straightforward and oftentimes that’s what makes it a joke.

No, it’s only funny when you do it to people who have done it to others.

Yeah everything’s gonna be alright, mate.
