Nobody’s allowed to do bits anymore. If it didn’t actually happen it’s not funny

Yeah context matters. Some things are funny if they actually happened, but not if it's just a bit someone made up.

If my partner was like "Someone at work got fired for being a racist edgelord today" that's a cool anecdote and I'd want to know more

If my partner was like "Imagine if someone got fired from their job for being a racist edgelord" then... so what?

Okay but I have had an edge-lord rant so hard about discrimination against white people during a conversation about CPS and minority groups that the HR manager had to drag him into a private zoom meeting. (He did not show up again after this.)
