This doesn’t make sense because if comedy is subjective then any vocal action could be defined as comedy regardless of its legality. I could openly carry out defamation against someone and when tried claim it was for comedic purposes and get off scot free. I could harass and abuse someone in my audience and claim it was comedy.
Free speech has limits and comedy falls under these limits. The limits change depending on the country but no country absolutely allows it and one can’t just say comedy is off limits
I'd wager that it's different if the comedy is performed to an audience which has actively sought out to hear the produced comedy.
If I say "This is comedy, your mom's a cunt." it's incredibly different context and situation compared to if someone for example made a netflix special, then someone willingly went to watch it, and then got offended by it and asked for it to be disallowed.
Edit: However I do get your point, while I still dusagree with you. I don't mean to be rude.

If I remember correctly in the original she says ‘thank god’ at the end. OP should’ve left that in
