The consequence of edgy "ha ha slavery funny" humor. This is why punching down is never ok.

I must be misunderstanding, are you suggesting this lady sold her kids because of bad jokes?

Or what is the consequence you're talking about? The consequence of dark humour is seeing dark humour?

[-] Omega_Haxors@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 years ago

You saw this as hilarious rather than horrifying.

[-] Lauchs@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Well, I saw an opportunity to make a joke about the cost of housing.

I don't think it was hilarious but I chuckled and thought to contribute to our content desperate platform.

But yeah, I do like my humour dark.

People don't have to like it. Again, don't punch down it can have disastrous consequences for people who really don't need it.

I'm genuinely struggling to think of a non ridiculous chain of events that leads to disastrous consequences here.

Keep wondering then. ✌️

Phew, I'm glad I'm not the only one who couldn't think of an example! I was feeling kinda silly there for a sec.

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
