  Has it occurred to you that pressing the downvote button is just much easier that having to bother explaining something that should be obvious?

  If it is not obvious to you that it’s not incel shit, maybe even after an explanation you won’t agree still because you have different views (which I’m not saying are not respectable, but are still different, so an agreement can’t be reached), so whoever replies to you would have wasted their time.

  So of course people downvote without replying.

    it might be easier to downvote, but its not easier for you to write 2 paragraphs and still not explain it.

    the joke is about rape.

    thats 5 words.

    That’s one way to say you have no confidence in your ability to explain anything.

    It’s not that deep: what’s the joke? Can you explain it without sounding like an asshole? Sounds like you just admitted you can’t.

        I’m asking a question politely, but to be sealioning I’d have to be disingenuous about it. This is a serious question. Explain the joke, please.

        If you have a genuine answer I’m willing to hear it, but so far nobody has even tried.
