If you a cis straight white male, you don’t get to say what’s offensive because damaging jokes are never made at your expense.

Isn't the dumb Dad and husband who needs to be saved by his wife trope pretty standard in sitcoms? Don't most comedians, regardless of their background, make fun of white guys?

As a white gay male, I could care less that white guys are the butt of a lot of jokes. If it's funny, I laugh. If I felt it went to far, I stop listening/watching. Its not hard.

Also, as an aside, I really hope we will eventually get to a place in society where the "people are upset on Twitter" thing stops being "news."
