So I think I may have made a huge mistake when choosing my flatmates (basically people you live with for a whole year in a rented house). Their humor is a lot of punching down gay jokes and n-word / f-word drops. I brought it up with them. Their argument basically boiled down to, anyone can be offended by anything (even the colour blue), jokes are about an audience, if your audience doesn't include those people who would be offended by that joke, then it's okay to say that joke. They think that it doesn't make them a homophobe or a racist, they're laughing because those jokes are edgy and seen as taboo. It's just a type of humor that I don't "understand".
I was close to tearing hairs out of my head, it the most circular reasoning bullshit. That somehow they were unaffected by physocogical priming, that there wasn't a gay / bi person among them (there was, me) and making jokes about a group of people behind back was fine. Am I being too sensitive or too much of a "social justice warrior" like they said (first people I've meet that use that word in irl)? I want to try and get through to them, change them, so others don't have to deal with their shit. Any advice?

your intolerance of words makes me want to end myself. you are just as guilty as they are. are you wrong for having opinions, or am i, or are neither of us? should you be jailed for your offensive wrong thought, for offending me? are you any less of a person now that you know youve oppressed me? im calling british police right now to let them know of your hate crime, unless you change the way you think, you circular wordophobe.

>thinking you will receive useful advice
This has to be bait. By the way, r9k is down the hall to the left. And yes get a backbone and start telling jokes that attack their identities. Tell the raunchiest sickest jokes you can find. Print images from rekt threads and hang them around the flat. Then ask why they dont like your humor

I'm not opposed to a good gay joke (really not a fan of faggot though), it's more the frequency of these jokes and the punch line essentially being the same thing over and over again. It's a lot of really offensive edge humour, like using autistic as a synonym for idiot. There are some many creative jokes and swear words out there as well

Dude, no one cares.
"Homophobe" is a made up word. Homosexuality is mental perversion and degeneracy. There's nothing wrong with making furn of it.
Race jokes can be pretty funny. You have to learn not to care.
