Twitter "comedy" account post justifying and making victim of domestic abuse into joke

As disgusting as this is to me, I still think they should be allowed to post it. They're clearly taking cheap shots to make jokes so I can't let that bother me.

YHBT.

HTH.

HAND.

they also posted a cartoon about adult / child rape. the image is disgusting, and may be illegal in places, but the goal of whole account seems to be offending people in order to make other people laugh.

Most likely that dude injured himself in another way and then just posed for a funny snapchat with his girlfriend. I might just be an awful person but I could see myself laughing at a snap of either a male or female friend with a black eye joking that their spouse was responsible.

Switch the genders. Will Twitter take it down? I'm all for free speech but it has to go both ways. If this kind of joke is acceptable, then it should be OK for men to make jokes about DV against women.

It's funny as long as she didn't actually strike him.

why is this offensive? it's obviously a couple of kids making a 'funny' joke. you're taking this seriously. lol

What do you call a woman with 2 black eyes? etc etc

jokes are jokes, often crude.

Can we please not turn into a mirror image of humorless feminists? There's been a lot of this here recently.

Some context would be beneficial: Did she actually assault him or did he take a smack to the face playing sports then make a joke about it? If the former, that's pretty repulsive. If the latter, then I'd say we're being a bit thin skinned by saying "no one can joke about female on male DV"

No, we're not gonna use that bullshit "safe space" censorship like our critics do, thanks.

Classic feminist logic. DV against women is OH SO HORRIBLE STOP TEH PATRIARCHY but DV against men is OH SO FUNNY JOEK. These people are insane.
