Agreed. Apparently on 2024 shitposting is just an excuse to be repugnant.

This just in, boys not allowed to be boys, even in a shitpostint sub.
Fucking hell Lemmy sometimes feels so goddman uptight about everything.

I mean, the punchline is literally just implied rape, so…

Sometimes jokes are a bit dark. Dark jokes even

What’s the humor, honestly? That the woman gets raped? That’s what’s funny to you?

If being a boy involves rape jokes then yes, society in general has decided that being a boy is shitty.

Society in general isn’t against dark jokes. But sometimes are too uptight for them, it’s true. Why they can’t just be “I didn’t enjoy that but it’s okay”, who knows.

Obviously, it’s because anyone who finds a rape joke funny is a bit creepy and rapey.

People use the phrase “boys will be boys” to normalize extremely toxic and abusive behaviour, if such behaviour is what you mean by no one being allowed to be boys, then damn right.

Sometimes it’s just about having a laugh like with the meme here

While I understand and agree with your point, and I don’t particularly appreciate the subject matter, I’m also not a little bitch and am okay with seeing a controversial meme every now and then. Of course if the community gets flooded with similar memes, it’ll be a different conversation. But a one off spicy meme isn’t going to upset me. It’s LEMMY SHITPOST after all. Ya’ll need to save your energy for more important matters.
