    None of your objections so far have come close to resembling good faith rebuttals. Or even good ones.

    We have eyes, we’ve read the tweet, we (I would hope) know what invoking rm -rf / does. Presumably the context alone there and reading the room here should be enough to clue one in why one would find it specifically cringeworthy (even if I would probably use a tamer way to describe it-personally), and why perhaps one would in the exact same vein just find things funny for different reasons, or just find different things funny altogether. How is it hypocritical to acknowledge the humor in a joke while pointing out that the same joke carries an uncomfortable truth to it? Sometimes those are the best jokes (best of course being subjective)

    Of course, I got the joke straight away and merely chuckled. Not necessarily my brand of humor, but hey, you buy the premise, you’ve bought the bit.

      I’m not sure where good (or bad) faith comes into it, they expressed their opinion and I expressed mine. It’s a public forum where we’re allowed to disagree so I’m not really sure what you’re trying to get at, I feel perhaps you’re reading into this a bit too much.

      I did the same as you, I saw it and chuckled a bit at the humour. It wasn’t hilarious, but I found it amusing and I felt like the comment I replied to was a bit harsh, so I put a spin on it.

      I feel from your reply like I’ve annoyed you somehow and I’m sorry if that’s the case, it wasn’t my intention.
