Genuinely curious, not judging: you recognize that the humor you like is mean, problematic, and ostensibly, would make others uncomfortable in a way that might make you seem threatening to them. Why do you think you like this kind of humor? How's everything going outside your gaming interests?I only like gamer humor when it's mean, I don't know why. I guess I am a jerkface.
My favorite gamer comic panel is unpostable because it's extremely misogynistic. And while I recognize its problems, I still see it as funny as fuck, poking fun at both gamers and a developer alike. But all the lame Reddit-level amateur airline-food-quality comic panels made by tame wannabes looking for a patreon fanbase just don't do it for me.
Oh yeah. Rockstar games have a lot of parody in them.Gsmer humor is led by the people who still find pepe funny in 2022...its lead by the trolls. I think some creators are funny. Persona 5 , Red dead 2, psychonauts 2 had genuinely funny moments.
Name a funny game made by conservative writers...and/or a funny conservative comedian.Because games are now made by liberals, Have you ever watched a Liberal comedian... ?
Still not sure what you're exactly referring to but Mega64 is basically peak game humor. Taking game concepts and applying them to real life. A lot of it is humor from the awkward situation (fair point) but it's also because it sorts of points out how stupid (or rather unrealistic) the original games were.
Two great examples from Mega64 are the Assassin's Creed one (where he starts touching people's shoulders as he walks past them, just like in the game)
and the Shenmue one (where he is super awkward, just like the game's protagonist)
The other funny people I can think of are GameGrumps but most of their funny content has nothing to do with games per se. It's usually them doing some stupid/funny skit (or telling a funny story) while happening to be playing video games.
Everything is fine, thanks for your interest. Just because something isn't worth sharing in mixed company doesn't mean it can't be funny. Some stuff is just so edgy, on the nose, or in poor taste that the depiction itself drowns out whatever punchline or point the comic might be trying to make, regardless if it resonates with you or not. And this is one of those instances, the comic in question riffs on some (potential mis-)perceptions that were widespread at the time, but does so in a way that seeks to insult people on two sides of a (potentially non-)issue as much as anything else.Genuinely curious, not judging: you recognize that the humor you like is mean, problematic, and ostensibly, would make others uncomfortable in a way that might make you seem threatening to them.

Humor is subjective, each person find different things funny, simple as that.
fair enough, still though i just think a lot of it can be outdated or not very inventive.You say this and yet you are the one who made entire thread about how dont like humor in games/gamers.

You know who's making the most money throughout history? The men. Who have been the great leaders? Men. Maybe you have Cleopatra but, Egyptians live in triangles, tetrahedrons and shit--a triangle is not manly! (audience claps) Who fought the best wars? Men. Who make the best murderers? Men. Who invented the plague? Men. We got it all, bitch. We run this show, and I don't give a fuck who knows it.
Here is the thing, WHO CARES? I find anything Marvel and Star Wars related cringy as fuck but I'm not gonna go complain about why other people like them.fair enough, still though i just think a lot of it can be outdated or not very inventive.
