If you can’t be funny without using slurs then you are not funny.
There is some slight problem here:
.) "Funny" is relative or i better say it is based on subjectivity.
.) I think it is a serious problem, as soon a certain "group" or "majority" of people decide what is "funny" and what is not.
Yes, i see the "cancel-culture" as well as the "woke-culture" as a general problem:
.) It is a group of people, who decide what is "good" and what is "bad".
.) It is a group of people, who "punish" all those, who are "bad".
.) I think the woke-culture is in fact causing the exact opposite of what they actually are targeting, because on the long run, this whole thing will probably cause even more people to become "bad" after all, rather than being "good" as the woke- and cancel-culture wants everyone to be.*
*I know people who never had a problem with gays, in fact they just never cared for sexual-related things like that, but now with all those "forced" gay-scenes in movies and stuff and the way how everyone is "forced" to accept it all, they start to get this weird feeling of really having enough of all that "gay crap" after all.
A feeling, they never had before until this whole thing started.
