Yes because then they feel confident with their views, after all it's being plastered in front of them so it must be okay right?

I remember something similar on Reddit where there was a subreddit that made ironic humour about Trump, however it quite quickly turned into a serious subreddit over time because some people took it seriously.
I've seen similar happen with LGBT jokes or misogynistic jokes and they will escalate over time while you also get told you're too uptight and to relax. This also was beginning to happen in 196 on lemmy with trans people.
So it's funny because some people with that attitude exist, and therefore you make a joke those people would make? How is that different from saying a racist joke and claiming you're making fun of racists? (non-hostile question)
Can you explain why that's funny?
It sounds like they're implying most people are losing because they use windows and Mac, instead of Linux, which I don't completely disagree with because of the insane monopoly they have. Just look at all the ads and bloat on windows 11 for a brief example.
