Agreed, as in a lot of times comedy is used as a fake excuse to get out of something that intended to offend.

If the main point was critique with comedy, sure, it makes sense to see through it.

Of course. That's my second point there.

But you can't just say "F You!" and say it's a joke. It's not a "free for all" card.

It has to at least try to be funny
