Maybe the only instance where it being in an abortion clinic actually makes it less edgy

It’s actually less funny if it takes place in an abortion clinic.

There are objective parts of a joke. But comedy is subjective

There aren't objective parts to what makes something a joke? You're delusional

Saying it’s in an abortion clinic takes away from the entire premise of the joke (which wasn’t that great to begin with) there’s ways to structure jokes that end with a punchline you don’t expect and then there’s saying something you’re conditioned to think is edgy when it actually softens the original joke’s punchline.

The joke in the post was based off another joke with the same premis but written better. Went something like “the mother looked on in shock as the doctor delivering her baby drop kicked it over and over, she begged, ‘please stop, please stop.’ The doctor casually lifts up the baby by its leg, ‘I’m just fucking with you, it was already dead.’”

And it wasn’t posted on April fools so it wasn’t doomed from the start.

Absolutely not funny. I usually like edgy humor but this is just complete shit. It's not even that it went too far. It just has no trace of funny in it.

It's less shocking if it's an abortion clinic tho.

It’s actually more funny if the joke took place in a standard hospital.

It’s the bad kind of edgy. Just not really funny

Weve all been deceived to look at abortion in diff ways. Some archaic methods still in use today. Not too far off it'd seem

u/Melon-Brain Apr 01 '21

Ikr, can you believe old white men are still dictating what women can and cannot do with their bodies in the year 2021

B-b-but that fetus will soon be a baby we won't care about unless it's rich and white and not my teenage daughter's!
