Do Kwon in more trouble

If that person is a criminal that shamelessly stole vast amounts of money from ordinary people then pretty sure all jokes are fair game.

You sorta give up your right to be treated decently by society at that point.

I’m not convinced racist jokes are okay just because the subject of the joke is a criminal.

I don't see how it's a racist joke.

It's a very specific joke that's only relevant for a very specific person. It would've been the same joke if his name was Connor, race is not relevant at all for this joke.

But yes, "all jokes" is probably too broad of a statement.

Thank God it wasn't a joke (it was a pun)! Glad you agree puns are fine and infantalizing minorities is dehumanizing them.

I'd say innocent until proven guilty. Outlawing people without a fair trial is barbaric. But I think the pun isn't too bad.

Generally yes, but as he is known to joke about people "staying poor" so I have zero sympathy for him.

Not saying we should throw him in jail without a trial, but I see no reason to feel bad for him in any way.
