I complained this community doesn't exist here, people told me to make it, so i did.
Could you imagine if cishet people made the same jokes about gay people? Yeah this is not okay.

Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

The point of this community isn't just "make fun of straight people", it's mocking toxic heteronormativity by reposting memes / comics / pictures of weird "haha i hate my wife" or similar memes, or in the case of this post "haha, if you have autonomy you clearly can't be married, because we're all trapped in our marriages".
Just like the original subreddit, hetero people are welcome here and hetero hate is not.
I'm approximately cishet, and I approve of this joke, for whatever that's worth.
I agree that it wouldn't be okay for cishet people to make this joke about gay people. For one thing, that would be punching down at the systemically oppressed, rather than punching up, and that matters.
I cannot wait for clueless cishets to find this /c/ and complain that it's heterophobic
