That isn't even the close to the point or even relevant to what I said. Slapstick isn't random; it's a setup situation. It isn't attacking a stranger oh the street then expecting them to laugh about it... Goddamn you people cannot be this thick.

Misfortune humor is commiserating. It's punching up to the unfairness of a situation. Targeting trans people is punching down and if you can't wrap your head around that, then I don't know what to tell you. Just admit you lack empathy and move on.

    I'd say the same thing to you honestly. You seem too stuck up for humor. You aim for extremes for everything.

    I can have empathy for others, but not for you, who seems to purposely put yourself in situations to be offended.

    edit: wait standup is also setup comedy...come on man. You're literally writing situations for you to be offended in.
