SaidIt is not an exception to political correctness either. Apparently many folks on SaidIt get offended by sexual humour and make enough stink about it to get M7 burdened (and offended). (Meanwhile there's no shortage of racist, anti-gay, anti-Muslim, and anti-commie sentiment.) Comedy's gone totally tragic.

Jokes and other acts perceived to be motivated by hostility towards race, religion or a person being transgender are filed “irrespective of whether there is any evidence to identify the hate element”, according to official guidelines.

Thought police, do not dissent!

I'd think they'd have bigger problems than bad jokes, but that's what public officials decide to spend the government resources.

Oof sounds expensive to track all of these non crimes. Maybe they were worried that Australia was gonna beat them to the new world order.

Your jokes are non-crimes.

You're being sent to non-prison.

Why don't they just call it what it is, a thought crime database.
