In fact, they were the ones that invented cancel culture. Even helped the forming of the annoying leftist callouts by accident (they just wanted to point out leftist/liberal hypocrisy, often for them to get away with way worse things, then leftists/liberals took it to the next level, sometimes they outright manipulate who should be the callout's target to incite infights, destroy alliances, or just to see someone who's "deserving" to suffer).
Trump is cancer. But having Van Gogh memes and so on rolling on the socials just few hours after he was almost shot in he head an some guys end up dining was quite a shit-show to look at.
Nevertheless to quote Trump regarding the victim of mass shooting: "Get over it"
I dont know why this would be surprising. The man is a literal death dealer rapist who laughs at and mocks the misfortune of others. I wouldn't ever expect any semblance of respect or sympathy towards him from the general public, not even for a second.
People are going to roast him every chance that they get, and I think it would be naive to act like he doesn't deserve the treatment.
I am quite confused. Can someone please explain why there seems to be hate towards those who like "dark humor"? I can understand that some try to hide behind the name when in reality they just want to bad-mouth minorities or their views, however I don't see a problem with dark humor by itself.
I may be missing something since a lot of the comments and the post itself mentions US politics where there is a lot of tensions.
Dark humor itself isn’t the issue, however a majority of the people who claim they have “dark humor” are actually just massive bigots who don’t want to be called out so they mask their hate as thinly-veiled “jokes”
So the post and comments refer to people who act in such a way mixed with the US politics because of how certain people make "jokes" about minorities that are oppressed and might be oppressed further in the worst case scenario, right?

It’s not against dark humor. It’s against what you identified: people hiding behind it or qualifying their bigotry as dark humor when they’re really just assholes.
My humor is dark af and I take no offense because this isn’t about that.
Man. Even if I DID think the whole "trans women are really men amirite LULZ" was funny at some point, it's been their #OneJoke for like a decade now.
I love Tim Minchin, but if every comedian I followed only sang The Pope Song I'd be pretty fucking tired of it pretty fucking quick (or insert whatever song here that's just stuck in my head at the moment lol)
While there's a lot of bangers, I'm probably most fond of Cheese overall. I'm a simple man, the more resources you throw at a bit the happier I am. Hiring an orchestra to sing about cheese is basically peak comedy to me. :P
"biden crime family" is perfectly acceptable to say
but comparing trump to hitler? Nah completely and morally off the table, ignore the fact that we're literally calling the biden family a fucking mafia. And when we do unironically say it, it's also satire, so you can't complain.
