    Edit: A better comparison is a racist joke. Even if the “butt” of the joke is “haha that guy is racist”, I don’t want the N word showing up on my feed, either.

    I personally don’t think the comic was wrong, I agree with what chimbalumber wrote in their comment. That said, I do understand, and relate to, the desire to not see jokes involving sensitive subjects or explicit dark humor. (I dunno quite how to word that, but hopefully it makes sense.)

    I won’t argue what content should or shouldn’t be allowed in this specific community, I’m not super involved here. But I do remember one nice thing we had on reddit was separate subs for stuff like this. Maybe there’d be one comic strips sub where anything was allowed, one that was more, idk, family friendly? Etc. I dunno if we have that kind of thing here yet, or if this is the only (active) comic strip community. But it might be worth a try to look for/create one ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
