Beau of the Fifth Column has a great way of dealing with this sort of bigoted joke actually, “Huh? I don’t get it. What’s funny about that? What’s the joke?”
And just like… watch them realise they can’t explain it without sounding like a monster.
And to anyone who would say that jokes are like frogs, you can’t dissect them without killing them, you’ve never seen a good comedian break down a joke. It is hilarious, it’s all in the telling. If you need to rely on shock to get your laughs then you’re not actually funny. You fell into the shock-jock trap of “oh that got a reaction; that must be funny”, not realising that people also laugh when they’re uncomfortable, and all you’re doing is being an asshole.

It’s so bigoted against dead people. Op probably doesn’t even hire them.

No, that’s not the joke. What’s the joke, can you explain it please?

Has it occurred to you that pressing the downvote button is just much easier that having to bother explaining something that should be obvious?
If it is not obvious to you that it’s not incel shit, maybe even after an explanation you won’t agree still because you have different views (which I’m not saying are not respectable, but are still different, so an agreement can’t be reached), so whoever replies to you would have wasted their time.
So of course people downvote without replying.
