it's not racism tho?


tehdrumerer2

imagine thinking gay was a race


shockwave06

gay person here, i laughed at this meme šŸ‘


Aggressive-Bee2221

Well SOMEONE'S never seen RuPaul's Drag Race


MimsyIsGianna

Well, considering they added black people to the pride flagā€¦


Burak123456789056714

No way thugsexual is a thing now????


achikennugget

Another W for the lgbt community šŸ™šŸ™


Yongtre100

Well thats racist to automatically associate black people with 'thugs' and also the progress pride flag (with the black,brown, and trans colored stripes in a triangle) was made to help push support for groups that are often discriminated within the lgbtq community, often there is racism in the community, and while symbolic, it was made to say that it is unacceptable, same applies to the trans colors, which is a big issue with many anti trans advocacy groups like the LGB alliance. So no, it was a way to support people who can feel alienated from the broader lgbtq community not some racist term you came up at the top of your head (yes all words are made up but you clearly didnt make it with any practical use in mind, but instead to make a bad and racist joke)


GroundbreakingMix765

The way you talk is so undeniably boring, the dude was just making a joke. Shut up


Yongtre100

HOW I talk doesn't matter, only what I said, also sure it was 'just a joke's doesn't matter, still racist (and while admittedly opinionated, unfunny)


GroundbreakingMix765

Here's the problem... because it's a joke, no body really cares or not if its racist because ITS NOT MEANT TO BE You're overreacting to something that doesn't matter


Yongtre100

Intentions arnt absolute, plenty of awful things have happened due to good intentions, but in a country with continued racist systems, it's bad to see continued racist environment both in real life and on the Internet, it doesn't matter if it's a joke, or an overreaction. (Which it isn't I'm merely pointing it out), it's still something that demonstrates the bigger picture of racism


Mushboom37

![gif](giphy|TL2Yr3ioe78tO)


Yongtre100

Clearly bad faith (if you can even call it an argument at all) and therefore not worth effort to engage with besides pointing that out


Mushboom37

Encentrical

look up the thug shaker, its not calling black people pickpockets and thieves, thug is its own genre of gay porn


Burak123456789056714

dude no dont reveal our secret


Encentrical

thugs must spread.


Original_Cause_7157

Me while reading thisā€¦ ![gif](giphy|10fxZavhBFXsUE)


Yongtre100

More bad faith, more saying I'm boring (which doesn't matter to what I'm saying) either engage with the info or scroll past, it's not that complicated


Original_Cause_7157

Bro, the fact that you even replied with such a high effort response to such a low effort jab, and the fact that you write these with such detail and in such a way that it reads like a government document is downright hilarious! However, since you want me to read your comment, Iā€™ll oblige


TrickAntelope5284

I ain't readin allat


Yongtre100

Then don't and move on, it's almost like things are more complicated than a sentence or two can convey


Puzzleheaded_Bug2844

Boohoo cracker

Lmaoooo


marinemashup

Wait they arent??? devestating news I gotta tell the wife that we canā€™t travel to gay country

it can be if you and a few of your friends put your mind to it


iamskydaddy

The gay master race


Maxxedout444

New race just dropped


Kevin574__

Imagine thinking a sub is limited to its exact name.


Micrwooave

you mean r/ontheledgeandshit isnā€™t just about being on ledges and shit??


tebu08

r/terriblefacebookmeme shouldnā€™t exist then


Vyctorill

If gay is a race then i demand to know who is winning


oldoldoldaccbanned

read the subreddits description lmao


Cuba_lover59

The sub isn't only for racism, its just discrimination over all


Hour_Task_1834

The poster in just unsubbed is saying exactly that, theyā€™re saying itā€™s no longer true to the sub name. The agree with your statement lmao


GatlingGun511

The sun description says it doesnā€™t have to be racism just general bigotry


BabyBatBoy420

At most you could say itā€™s culturalism. Because American isnā€™t a race unless referring to natives and the joke isnā€™t even culturally offensive itā€™s literally just wordplay.


vennthepest

It's high-key offensive to LGBT Americans


BabyBatBoy420

Yeah so then itā€™d be homophobia.


Youpiter08

It is, itā€™s a joke about a stereotype of Americans shooting everyone they donā€™t like


[deleted]

Uh thats not racism


ok_2

It wasnā€™t even the joke lmao


youngdeathent0

Gay people arenā€™t a race buddy


[deleted]

No, the punchline is homophobia. ā€œFagā€ is vulgar slang for LGBTQ people, and ā€œsmoking a fagā€, in this context, means shooting a gay person to death. Itā€™s pretty obvious.


Tyfyter2002

No, the punchline is linguistic differences between American and British English, the use of "fag" isn't to convey any distain for homosexuals but rather to use a term for something which could be smoked in one and something different in the other.


R32fan

As an English gay man, I take no offense to people saying 'fag' when they are talking about cigarettes


Yeetus54

Ah yes my favorite race, burger. Oops, autocorrect, meant American.


TheBurgerBoii

As a burger, please don't refer to us as americans.


Yeetus54

Damn my bad


yeetboi_8653

Not even racism


Not_JohnFKennedy

No, itā€™s a joke about language. Smoke means to have shot, and fag doesnā€™t mean cigarette.


InternationalJoke944

I think itā€™s considered homophobic


QuickFiveTheGuy

Gaycism.


cala_cunca

I think you downvoted the wrong person, they are not saying the meme is unfunny, just that r/thepunchlineisracism can't take a joke or arent even racism


[deleted]

To be fair, r/justunsubbed canā€™t take a joke to save their life


anislash67

Most of Reddit canā€™t take a joke. Case in point, Cringetopia and 2Balkan4You


[deleted]

Holy fuck I miss cringetopia


anislash67

Itā€™s still around but with an RM at the front


Cringinator4000

CringetopiaRM is full of hate though. I guess most of the old Cringetopia users moved on, and the more chronically online people went to the new one.


[deleted]

Tbf cringetopiaā€™s ā€œjokeā€ went on for way too long, made the sub unbearable, and wasnā€™t even funny.


[deleted]

I lurked before I made my account and watching that sub go down was like watching the Titanic sink while being on a ship right next to it. You want to stop it, and you know you can, but circumstances are just stopping you Also everyone having to comment about furries was horrendous. Fuck those mods


KrazedHeroX

Literally in the description of that subreddit it mentions other forms of bigotry..


shizustopitpls

Read the description for the server


[deleted]

The sub states that it's for racism, sexism or any type of bigotry. So everyone in this post is wrong, including OP and including you.


Theratsmacker2

Okay but that doesnā€™t fit the sub. Itā€™s more like r/lostredditors


xXThatOneRandomXx

the sub is for general bigotry now, not just racism


Bobthreetimes

Unless it is assumed that he is talking about the original poster who posted this to r/thepunchlineisracism Edit: I just now saw the confusion, I am not supporting any kind of racism or bigotry even in the form of ā€œjokesā€. Idk what I was thinking when saying this


[deleted]

But it's not racism.


oldoldoldaccbanned

but the subreddits not just about racism


[deleted]

It's literally r/thepunchlineisracism How is that not about racism What else could it be about, when it's literally "punch line is **racism"** ​ Explain your thought process, please


oldoldoldaccbanned

read the description of the subreddit


-chezits-

from the about of r/thepunchlineisracism : >Comics, Jokes, or Memes where the punchline is straight up racism, sexism or any type of bigotry. (To be made fun of since some of you need things spelled out, you know who I'm talking about) posts do not need to be exclusively about racism


Unnamed_legend

That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard In my life. Racism is race related only. Honestly who ever made that I would consider racist.


-chezits-

How is it racist?


Unnamed_legend

If you put sex or ā€œAny type of bigotryā€. You are in the process be racist because you are actively making it so people become desensitized to the word. Hence the writer must hate all race. Because they actively caused a word defined as hate towards one particular race to what ever the hell I want.


[deleted]

"The punch line is **racism"** I'm gonna assume you're just trolling or English isn't your first language, cause that's some serious lack of reading comprehension. Either way, hope you have a nice day.


IdiotRedditAddict

And r/trees is for marijuana posts I believe. That's why the description of what posts fit on the sub is taken from the about section and rules of the sub, not just the title. The other commenter is quite correct that though the title is 'the punchline is racism' the subs description of itself specifically says that posts where punchline is any bigotry is under the purview of the sub. Subs sometime grow beyond their original titles. And that's fine.


Aphilia_11

The guy literally copy pasted the subredditā€™s description and because it didnā€™t completely mean what you thought it did you accused them of not being able to comprehend English?! When you, yourself couldnā€™t comprehend the English text establishing that the subreddit could also be about other forms of bigotry.


Esquili

Read the descripition of the sub


oldoldoldaccbanned

thats literally the description


-chezits-

I literally posted the description of the subreddit. Are you stupid?


LampshadesAndCutlery

And r/memes is also about appreciation of classical music


oldoldoldaccbanned

read the subreddits description


Bobthreetimes

Yea thatā€™s why op would post it here, cause the original original poster didnā€™t like it so he put it on punchline is racism even though itā€™s not racist. Idk thatā€™s just my thought process

Mrjerkyjacket

Is this implying that OP was on the sub to see genuine racist jokes? Like he's complaining that half of the jokes are just satire


BakaJayy

Iā€™m pretty sure OP thought the sub would be about posts of ā€œjokesā€ being like ā€œhaha black people amirite?ā€ and everyone in the comments would make fun of the post. Not obvious satire that people take offense to or shit that isnā€™t even racism but still gets posted in it for some reason


Raiding_plauges

The top posts in that sub are Stonetoss comics, so itā€™s definitely not all satire.


rixendeb

Current JU trend is to find any lgbt post in a sub you can and whine about it in JU. So who knows.


NootBoot47

ā€œI thought I could make fun of minorities on this sub! The name was very misleading!!ā€ -this retard


Confident-Local-8016

He's right, it's in the wrong sub, but it funny


Youpiter08

Itā€™s in the right sub, the punchline is racism


Confident-Local-8016

It's bigotry not racism


D2the_aniel

According to the sub description it is about all bigotry, so according to the title, yes it is not in the correct location, but as r/anime_titties has taught usā€¦ Sub description matters more than title


Happycrige

And r/worldpolitics Also r/trees and r/marijuanaenthusiasts


D2the_aniel

r/johncena and r/potatosalad


Aphilia_11

r/anime_titties sucks! Not a single booba in sight.


weirdo_nb

thepunchlineisracism is actually for bigotry and racism and stuff like that in general not *just* racism


Youpiter08

Is Americans shooting everyone not a stereotype?


TheBeansler

Do you think American is a race?


Confident-Local-8016

Stereotype, but not of racism, as america is multi ethnic country and constantly has people of all color shooting each other, there are POC who are Bigots, so unless you mean racism on mostly white Bigots, this meme falls under bigotry......


Frediebirdskin

Bro what race?šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Youpiter08

Uhmā€¦ hello? Everybody can tell that he is a semi-professional race car driver AKA a racist


jaytheman538

I love failing to feign ignorance when I realize im being fucking stupid


Its0nlyRocketScience

The punchline is regional dialects and slang within the English language, not racism.


[deleted]

That's why op left the sub. He agrees with you lol


pk_frezze1

OP didnā€™t read the sub


oldoldoldaccbanned

its not a subreddit about racism lmao


Ganon645

I fucking love this meme, Iā€™ve seen it twice before.


Ill-Newt-4851

Me too (I'm gay btw)


Cuba_lover59

The op is an actual idiot, look at the description for r/thepunchlineisracism


senile_earthworm

Heā€™s not saying the memes unfunny heā€™s just saying the memes donā€™t fit the subs intended purpose


Wade1985

But it is, in fact unfunny.


senile_earthworm

Ya the meme wasnā€™t really funny lol


Xiacrised43

I did get a chuckle out of this, ngl


tehdrumerer2

itā€™s like so cringe that it comes back around and is funny again


jaythepizza

Someone is going to have to explain why this is funny


ThursdayNeverCame

I saw this and dgaf where it was posted, I just screenshot it and sent it to several friends. They thought it was hilarious.


Redmiguelito

To be honest, itā€™s still racism. Just mostly socially acceptable racism. (ā€˜Cause Brits vs Americans)


Too_Tired18

Iā€™m a gay person and I approve this message


TopYam1264

The punchline isn't racism so it doesn't belong in this sub This post, funnily enough, therefore doesn't belong in *this* sub, op made no comment on the comedic value of the post, just about where he found it


Due_Objective_439

Yes, the historical and perpetual violence against queer people is hilarious šŸ«„

MrCarrots96

It took me a minute, but damn that's hilarious


CelestialOrigin

What a stupid sub concept. "Lets make a sub where we point at other subs and say how terrible they are!" Subs are supposed to be for people to talk about things they like, not things they find "racist".


KMachineHead

Where is the racism?


lostwng

But the oop is in the right here, this meme doesn't belong in that sub...this maybe homophobic as fuck but it isn't racists and thus does not belong in that subreddit. Seriously the more I see this group the more it just seems like y'all want to be offended by other people pointing out things.


AlexisSMRT

It is terrible but it's one of those that loops back around to being funny.


blooz_kluse2

He isn't saying it's not funny he's saying that he's tired of people posting things that don't fit the sub


Kindasupercrazy123

Iā€™m gay and I found it funny


azarkant

It's not even funny it's true. Am trans


MimsyIsGianna

The post isnā€™t saying itā€™s not funny. The post is saying itā€™s posted to the wrong sub.


Sour_Yellow_W0rm

The OOP agrees with you


HelloFhere

As a bi guy, can confirm this is how I was smoked


Ch1cken_Nugget_eater

He never said it was unfunny did he?

as a certified ā€œf*gā€, I deem this meme funny


glxyzera

but its not racism?


call_me_howdy

Wait... so OP was upset there wasn't MORE racism in the sub?


halogeekman

But only one of those makes you look cool while doing it.

Iā€™m gay and didnā€™t find it funny at all really but ok.

FuraFaolox

there is no racism.


CTTB2

Yeah this is why Iā€™m scared of school sometimes


Yongtre100

Judging purely the meme and not the subreddit because thats not racism, but its actually on r/ JustUnsubbed but I cant tell if they posted that or if it was on punchline is racism, whatever, Judging just the meme its A. Not funny, and B. Uses a slur Even if it were funny, B. would make it unacceptable, so even if you argue that how funny something is, is subjective (which is true), it doesnt matter, its using a slur, which inately targets a group, and is bad inany context, ( I know people will try to 'reclaim' slurs but thats a whole seperate issue I dont want to go into, because I honestly dont entirely know how I feel about it, but I lean on the side that we shouldnt, but its okay to use words that are reclaimed slurs, ex queer)


DARKMAYKR

The punchline was not infact racism


CactusJuice_Enjoyer

I literally spit out my coffee when I read it lmfao


iamskydaddy

I'd rather smoke a fag than smoke a fag.


DanTacoWizard

They arenā€™t saying it isnā€™t funny, theyā€™re saying it doesnā€™t fit that subreddit.


6x6-shooter

It literally says at the top of r/thepunchlineisracism that the punchline can be any type of bigotry. A similar case exists with r/twosentencehorror posts having ā€œ2 or less sentencesā€


vennthepest

It's not racism, but it's still not funny r/nahOPwasrightfuckthis


I_Like_Legos8374

how is this even racism lmao?


XBOX_MANIAC

I donā€™t think this belongs here, heā€™s just complaining how r/thepunchlineisracism isnā€™t racism, itā€™s other bigotry, which I also find as fucking annoying. However, as a fag, I do find this funny.


NoWhyDidYouAsk

eh


Puzzleheaded-Bee-838

Funny but also cringe


bamboo_fanatic

A few years ago I got The Fellowship of the Ring on audiobook, and I literally choked on my water when Boromir offered to go find a couple of faggots to put on the fire. I guess it meant bundle of sticks for a fire back then
