      They’re being downvoted for being rude to someone just for expressing a desire to hide helmets in games.

        In a clearly joking manner. Humor is dying slowly, killed by people who feel the need to rectally insert every statement they read, and I’m noticing it more and more on Lemmy. It’s saddening.

          I am generally a comedic person, but my humor sense did not tingle at this. Reading the guy’s later comment in the thread only made me think it was more serious.

          It wasn’t funny though. The words they used, the reaction, the context…none of it was particularly funny.

          A joke that isn’t funny and can be easily read as rude gets downvoted. Seems pretty straightforward.
