Besides being “offensive”, offensive humor is, on a certain level, good for the soul. Almost on a level of “the more offensive, the better”. Because any jokes that piss off wokesters are, on a certain level, quite soothing. I’m not saying that the actual import of racist humor is literally funny, but the howling and abusive spectacle of it all is, on a certain level….I don’t know what I’m saying.

Insult humor is often funny, okay? To sensible center-left types, I mean. I’m sorry but it is.

We all remember how Tony Hinchcliffe infuriated AOC and many other lefties after trashing Puerto Ricans at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Madison Square Garden on 10.27.24. He described Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage”, and joked that “these Latinos, they love making babies, they do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that, they come inside, just like they do to our country”.

He also riffed about “carving watermelons with Black people” and “making a rock paper scissors joke involving Palestinians throwing rocks, and Jews “[having] a hard time throwing that paper.”
