    A lot of racist jokes are funny as hell. They’re still racist. I could use some to illustrate any facet of comedy, and the explanation would be a true and useful guide to constructing a joke… and the examples would still be extremely racist.

    There’s countless good jokes. Some are beloved by racists.

    There’s countless Star Wars jokes. Some are beloved by fascists.

    This is one of them.

      So as soon as fascists take it, it’s gone for good? Fuck that, and fuck fascists. Your attitude sounds a lot like letting them win to me.
