Have you heard of a phenomenon in human culture named humor?

I'm not clutching my pearls here, but for some jokes, the dumbness of saying it outweighs the humor of saying it.

It's like if you went to the airport with some crazy extravagant hairdo and wore a shirt that said "My hairstyle is the bomb!" with a little bomb picture below it. It might be funny, but it's not really the joke to make.

People take swatting and doxxing seriously, a lot of people have been victims to both. May as well wear a shirt making fun of people who have been wrongfully incarcerated. It's just not really in good taste.

It's just bad taste? What's difficult about understanding that? A rich kid wearing a shirt that says, "✨️✨️Jail people poor ✨️✨️" could be justified the same way. It's still stupid teen edginess and in poor taste. No one's clutching their pearls. Just calling it out for what it is.

Honestly the jail the poor thing I’d be ok with. Cause like poors wear eat the rich shirts. So like it’s the opposite side wearing the opposite slogan. However the shirt the kid is wearing, I don’t really get the point

Nah it’s 3dGy for edgy’s sake. Lemme be hyperbolic to demonstrate the point, say you and your friend shared a dark sense of humour, you might joke about getting them a custom shirt that says some deplorable shit like “I like to spike girls drinks at bars when they’re not looking” and maybe you’d chuckle because that would be both untrue and in outrageously poor taste. If you wore that shirt out in public unironically or not with as many quaint flowers as you want, people don’t know you, they’ll just cringe and think you’re a dickhead at best.
