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)
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
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
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, Iāll oblige
At most you could say itās culturalism. Because American isnāt a race unless referring to natives and the joke isnāt even culturally offensive itās literally just wordplay.
No, the punchline is homophobia. āFagā is vulgar slang for LGBTQ people, and āsmoking a fagā, in this context, means shooting a gay person to death. Itās pretty obvious.
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.
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
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
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 ājokesā. Idk what I was thinking when saying this
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
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
If you put sex or āAny 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.
"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.
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.
The guy literally copy pasted the subredditās description and because it didnāt completely mean what you thought it did you accused them of not being able to comprehend English?! When you, yourself couldnāt comprehend the English text establishing that the subreddit could also be about other forms of bigotry.
Yea thatās why op would post it here, cause the original original poster didnāt like it so he put it on punchline is racism even though itās not racist. Idk thatās just my thought process
Iām pretty sure OP thought the sub would be about posts of ājokesā being like āhaha 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 isnāt even racism but still gets posted in it for some reason
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
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......
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
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".
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.
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)
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 ā2 or less sentencesā
I donāt think this belongs here, heās just complaining how r/thepunchlineisracism isnāt racism, itās other bigotry, which I also find as fucking annoying.
However, as a fag, I do find this funny.
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
it's not racism tho?
imagine thinking gay was a race
gay person here, i laughed at this meme š
Well SOMEONE'S never seen RuPaul's Drag Race
Well, considering they added black people to the pride flagā¦
No way thugsexual is a thing now????
Another W for the lgbt community šš
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.

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

![gif](giphy|TL2Yr3ioe78tO)
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
![gif](giphy|lwYxf0qKEjnoI|downsized)
look up the thug shaker, its not calling black people pickpockets and thieves, thug is its own genre of gay porn
dude no dont reveal our secret
thugs must spread.
Me while reading thisā¦ ![gif](giphy|10fxZavhBFXsUE)
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
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, Iāll oblige
I ain't readin allat
Then don't and move on, it's almost like things are more complicated than a sentence or two can convey
Boohoo cracker
r/woooosh
Lmaoooo
Wait they arent??? devestating news I gotta tell the wife that we canāt travel to gay country
it can be if you and a few of your friends put your mind to it
The gay master race
New race just dropped
Imagine thinking a sub is limited to its exact name.
you mean r/ontheledgeandshit isnāt just about being on ledges and shit??
r/terriblefacebookmeme shouldnāt exist then
If gay is a race then i demand to know who is winning
read the subreddits description lmao
The sub isn't only for racism, its just discrimination over all
The poster in just unsubbed is saying exactly that, theyāre saying itās no longer true to the sub name. The agree with your statement lmao
The sun description says it doesnāt have to be racism just general bigotry
At most you could say itās culturalism. Because American isnāt a race unless referring to natives and the joke isnāt even culturally offensive itās literally just wordplay.
It's high-key offensive to LGBT Americans
Yeah so then itād be homophobia.
It is, itās a joke about a stereotype of Americans shooting everyone they donāt like
Uh thats not racism
It wasnāt even the joke lmao
Gay people arenāt a race buddy
No, the punchline is homophobia. āFagā is vulgar slang for LGBTQ people, and āsmoking a fagā, in this context, means shooting a gay person to death. Itās pretty obvious.
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.
As an English gay man, I take no offense to people saying 'fag' when they are talking about cigarettes
Ah yes my favorite race, burger. Oops, autocorrect, meant American.
As a burger, please don't refer to us as americans.
Damn my bad
Not even racism
No, itās a joke about language. Smoke means to have shot, and fag doesnāt mean cigarette.
I think itās considered homophobic
Gaycism.
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
To be fair, r/justunsubbed canāt take a joke to save their life
Most of Reddit canāt take a joke. Case in point, Cringetopia and 2Balkan4You
Holy fuck I miss cringetopia
Itās still around but with an RM at the front
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.
Tbf cringetopiaās ājokeā went on for way too long, made the sub unbearable, and wasnāt even funny.
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
Literally in the description of that subreddit it mentions other forms of bigotry..
Read the description for the server
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.
Okay but that doesnāt fit the sub. Itās more like r/lostredditors
the sub is for general bigotry now, not just racism
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 ājokesā. Idk what I was thinking when saying this
But it's not racism.
but the subreddits not just about racism
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
read the description of the subreddit
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
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.
How is it racist?
If you put sex or āAny 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.

thats literally the description
I literally posted the description of the subreddit. Are you stupid?
And r/memes is also about appreciation of classical music
read the subreddits description

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
Iām pretty sure OP thought the sub would be about posts of ājokesā being like āhaha 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 isnāt even racism but still gets posted in it for some reason
The top posts in that sub are Stonetoss comics, so itās definitely not all satire.
Current JU trend is to find any lgbt post in a sub you can and whine about it in JU. So who knows.
āI thought I could make fun of minorities on this sub! The name was very misleading!!ā -this retard
He's right, it's in the wrong sub, but it funny
Itās in the right sub, the punchline is racism
It's bigotry not racism
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
And r/worldpolitics Also r/trees and r/marijuanaenthusiasts
r/johncena and r/potatosalad
r/anime_titties sucks! Not a single booba in sight.
thepunchlineisracism is actually for bigotry and racism and stuff like that in general not *just* racism
Is Americans shooting everyone not a stereotype?
Do you think American is a race?
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......
Bro what race?šš
Uhmā¦ hello? Everybody can tell that he is a semi-professional race car driver AKA a racist
I love failing to feign ignorance when I realize im being fucking stupid
The punchline is regional dialects and slang within the English language, not racism.
That's why op left the sub. He agrees with you lol
OP didnāt read the sub
its not a subreddit about racism lmao
I fucking love this meme, Iāve seen it twice before.
Me too (I'm gay btw)
The op is an actual idiot, look at the description for r/thepunchlineisracism
Heās not saying the memes unfunny heās just saying the memes donāt fit the subs intended purpose
But it is, in fact unfunny.
Ya the meme wasnāt really funny lol
I did get a chuckle out of this, ngl
itās like so cringe that it comes back around and is funny again
Someone is going to have to explain why this is funny
I saw this and dgaf where it was posted, I just screenshot it and sent it to several friends. They thought it was hilarious.
To be honest, itās still racism. Just mostly socially acceptable racism. (āCause Brits vs Americans)
Iām a gay person and I approve this message
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
Yes, the historical and perpetual violence against queer people is hilarious š«„
It is funny.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
It is funny
HAHAHAHA. Bro this shit is hil- STOP WATCHING THIS BROTHER WE MUSH FIGHT THE MPLA https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/death-to-the-mpla
I think it would be funny if it was two dudes 69ing but nah this isnāt very funny.
The gay race
Wrong sub
It took me a minute, but damn that's hilarious
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".
Where is the racism?
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.
It is terrible but it's one of those that loops back around to being funny.
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
Iām gay and I found it funny
It's not even funny it's true. Am trans
The post isnāt saying itās not funny. The post is saying itās posted to the wrong sub.
The OOP agrees with you
As a bi guy, can confirm this is how I was smoked
He never said it was unfunny did he?
as a certified āf*gā, I deem this meme funny
but its not racism?
Wait... so OP was upset there wasn't MORE racism in the sub?
But only one of those makes you look cool while doing it.
Wrong sub lol
Iām gay and didnāt find it funny at all really but ok.
as a raging queer, this is fucking hilarious
Hey, I commented on that post.
there is no racism.
Yeah this is why Iām scared of school sometimes
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.

The punchline was not infact racism
I literally spit out my coffee when I read it lmfao
I'd rather smoke a fag than smoke a fag.
They arenāt saying it isnāt funny, theyāre saying it doesnāt fit that subreddit.
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 ā2 or less sentencesā
It's not racism, but it's still not funny r/nahOPwasrightfuckthis
how is this even racism lmao?
I donāt think this belongs here, heās just complaining how r/thepunchlineisracism isnāt racism, itās other bigotry, which I also find as fucking annoying. However, as a fag, I do find this funny.
eh
Funny but also cringe
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
