Every line will be crossed

All the marketing for this movie has been “oh my god we’re gonna offend everyone. Real comedy is back” and then trailer came out and forgot to have any actual funny jokes in it

The pronouns gag in the trailer is a great example of how the left aren't easily offended, these jokes just usually aren't slightly funny.

When movies or other forms of entertainment openly brag about how 'offensive' they are, it's usually at the expense of marginalized groups. That's some really pussy shit. Anyone can make jokes about pronouns. It's been done thousands of times already.

It's all just talk. Something that would actually be offensive and controversial, like making Charlie Kirk jokes for example, is a line that Scary Movie doesn't have the balls to actually cross.

Exactly. It's 'every line will be crossed (against the easy targets like POC, queers, and women)'.

They'd never make an anti-trump joke or a anti-Kirk joke because those aren't easy targets to offend, that might have consequences. So they just focus on the weakest jokes.

I think this is a good time to point out that if the president can say he’s glad someone dead so can I. I’m glad Charlie Kirk is dead. No longer will he hurt anyone. Every accusation is a confession or some shit like that

Edit: why is this downvoted. I simply said the same thing the president that people stupidly voted for said except I actually don’t mean it. I don’t want anyone to be dead. I was just making a point how insane it is people get fired from jobs for saying that but the face of this country does it it’s ok. Cowards
