I guess, but talking shit to your siblings is just kinda what happens. Siblings have less of a filter with each other than any two people on the planet. That doesn’t mean they wouldn’t die for each other if it came down to it though.
Yeah, I’ve seen it said that sibling is like a built-in best friend. And the very best friends will curse you to the depths of hell with a straight face and hear you do the same, and still remain your best friend
My older brother has me blocked, younger brother rarely texts me. It is like I am an only child. I am the only one who goes to my parents for holidays. I would never die for my brothers.
I bet you money I can make a joke that you will not enjoy/will upset you. Use your imagination. Your line for “too far” is not the universal standard, so don’t treat people like they’re wrong just because they don’t share your exact level of tolerance and exact same list of subjects available for humor.
I don’t post my dissent because I have no sense of humor or because I expect people to universally agree with my own sense of humor. I posted this because I hoped some people would think, “huh, maybe I shouldn’t post jokes that further propagate the harms caused by patriarchy when there are plenty of other jokes I can make or ways I can phrase the same joke that aren’t at the expense of those around me.”
Maybe I want to live in a world where women are treated with the same respect as men. Part of making that change is not continuing to use language that is harmful towards them and calling out others for it when I see it.
TLDR: Do better OP. The bar is on the floor and you and everyone upvoting you still somehow missed it.
