Ditto. Even if it was just mostly a jab at the stereotypical 'American white male' stereotype, I'm really not fond of people depicting 'minorities' like me (and women) like poor overly sensitive PC types. If anything, it's probably less likely to offend minorities, cause a lot of other countries really aren't so paranoid about being PC like the US is. I mean, there is a fine line between dark humor and offensiveness, but we'll let you know when you cross it; please don't speak for everyone.
- cllns 13y agoI don't think the original commenter did anything to depict you as over sensitive, nor were they attempting to speak for anyone else.
- oblique63 13y agoIt implied people that don't fall under the white male demographic can't laugh at things like this, which is still not true. I mean yeah, people have different senses of humor and all that, but it came out in a way that made it sound like it would be interpreted as offensive instead of just "meh". Though I admit, I don't actually think the OP's comment was even that bad (like I said, it sounded more like just a jab at the 'white male' creators); but I do see this general trend that I'm talking about a lot, so I figured it might be helpful to bring it up.
