Really? So now inoffensive jokes are an indictment of a man’s character? This is such bullshit.
I was offended. If you think that’s bullshit then that’s your opinion.

Well, jokes tend to be offensive depending on who looks at it by their very nature
Bullshit. It depends on the kind of joke being told.

It is my opinion. Hey how come everyone’s allowed to jokingly (and not jokingly) compare Trump to Hitler?

Tell a joke you think is unoffensive and I’ll find a way someone could be offended by it.

Because Trump has courted the white supremacist vote. And he installed one as his chief strategist.

Oh give me a break. You want to compare Tim Allen making a Nazi joke to me posting a lurker name, I have no time for you.

and I don’t think any comparison to Nazi Germany could be said to be completely inoffensive
I don’t think you read this part of my post. I was disagreeing with mfm’s assertion that jokes are inoffensive.

So, when you’re offended it’s a problem, but when other people are offended, then fuck them?

I read it. Since you seem to think every single joke is offensive on some level, it doesn’t mean much.

I don’t think Bannon is a white supremacist. I hate him anyway though.

Yes. If you actually think those two situations are comparable, I have no time for you either.

Well, jokes usually take target at something, I don’t know what you’re upset at me for other than I’m not upset at a bad joke.

In any event, when the Anne Frank Center has a problem with the joke, that kind of settles it.

I don’t even know what lurker name you’re talking about. This just seems to expose you for being a total hypocrite, which is interesting given that you pretend to be so concerned about people’s feelings.

I don’t know what he really believes but everything I’ve read about him and everything I’ve heard him say are close enough.

That’s fine, I think you’re pretty unlikable sometimes too.

You think all jokes are offensive on some level, which I completely disagree with. You also think Tim Allen’s joke was no more offensive than a knock-knock joke, which I completely disagree with.
I’m not upset with you, I just think you’re completely wrong.

If I’m a total hypocrite or not. Because I’m the bad guy, not Tim Allen. And I can’t even tell if it’s because I dared to be offended or because I posted a Jezebel link instead of a CBS News link.

Alright, fair enough.

I just said I wasn’t upset with it, I never compared his joke with any other, just that every joke can be offensive on some level.
I’m not upset with you, I just think you’re completely wrong.
I can accept that, you just seemed upset. Alright, thanks for the clarification.

I don’t feel like debating your or any other poster’s character here.

How about neither?

I think it was more because the Jezebel article was poorly written than you being offended, as I said it’s completely reasonable to be offended at a comparison to Nazi Germany, a comparison to McCarthyism would have been better for his purposes.
Alright, I’ll leave this alone for now.
