Ask them to explain the “joke” then once they finish say I didn’t find the joke funny.

    I do this, but then I pick it apart to make it really painful.

    "Oh, jokes just normally have a punchline and aren't just stating something really backwards"

    As long as 1 singular person finds the joke funny it still counts as a joke.

    I have a lot of jokes where my friends don't find them funny. But there's always a punch line, some smart wordplay, terrible pun, even if they feel like it's too forced (smh).

    Racists do know that openly saying that "minorities being abused is funny" sounds racist as fuck, so they try to avoid explaining their jokes.
