Oxymoron right there.There is stuff that is generally considered offensive, but offence remains subjective and not absolute
You're trying to explain why racists don't find racist joked offensive?Hence the turmoil that comedy is going through with people trying to cancel commedians for making joke that they find offensive but that many don't.
Sickipedia is a well known website for posting users racist and offensive material.The BBC reported that Muslim parents are withdrawing children from Music Lessons because their beliefs forbid them from learning music. The British Government has therefore issued a new list of songs that are acceptable to Muslims.

So it's OK for males to tell jokes about females, or able-bodied to tell diasbled jokes to a disabled person, etc. because, a) it's highly unlikely they'll get a poke in the eye, and b) they're not aware of all their sensibilities?Offensive is in the ears of the receiver. If you are offended, that's your problem.
If someone goes out of their way to be offensive, they deserve a poke in the eye, simple.
I will not expect YOU to take account of all my potential sensibilities, because I'm not a jerk.
Self mockery is not offensive. That's obvious to most.The corner shop joke obviously wasn't offensive the guy who told me. Judgement on what has the property of being too offensive, is subjective.
It was absolutely offensive to them.There are those who say that if any one person is offended, then that means it was, absolutely, offensive.
Because you're not offended by offensive material?Those people I would assess, in a calm and objective way, as being jerks who need to grow up.
The intention to give or be offensive is absolute.
You're trying to explain why racists don't find racist joked offensive?
They are not offended by racist jokes because they believe that urban mythology is true. They've heard it since they were born, from their parents and their peers.
The racist jokes feeds their cognitive bias.
And you would like the world to be rid of anyone who finds some things offensiveCertain made-up screen characters fall into that category too. Junk the the planet would be better off without.
You appear to think that because you don't find something offensive, it shouldn't be classed as offensive?No, i don't. But you seem to have chosen to ignore that.
Deliberate intention to be offensive is just being abnoxious. But in the current world it seems to be common for someone to say something with absolutely no intention of being offensive, but someone takes offence anyway. Hence my comment about offence being subjective and not absolute. Context is all.Oxymoron right there.

I'm pretty sure we lready knew they didn't. I can explain it better than you, I think.

I have no idea how you've reached that conclusion. That is not what im arguing. I'm saying that what one person finds offensive, another may not and hence being offensive is subjective.You appear to think that because you don't find something offensive, it should be classed as offensive?
I've seen you rattled loads of times.afaik I have never been offended by what some one says ???
I've seen you rattled loads of times.
Silly Roy the racist.Show us these documents.
If it's well documented it is really very easy to show the documents.
Well documented:
used to describe something that is known about or known to be true because there are many documents that describe it, prove it, etc.
You must know of these documents, where they are, what they say or prove.
Show them.
Which translates as I can't show you.Silly Roy the racist.
I’ve no interest in proving it to you. We can all see it. It’s not like I’m the only one saying you’re a racist now is it.
Why don’t you prove you aren’t first ?
If you think that joke is racially offensive then you're an even bigger wet fart than I thought you were.Sickipedia is a well known website for posting users racist and offensive material.
Yet some posters (who have been members for over 13 years} think it's OK to redistribute the material from there to here.
I notice they don't mention their source. Is that intentional?
Jewish are fair game it seems though.
Q: Why do Jewish mothers make great parole officers?
A: They never let anyone finish a sentence!
