There was no intention and so I do not know why I am censored for "tit
for tat", moderator did not say. But I don't care to be censored. It
probably "offended" somebody. I guess it was a joke... hahhah

Those are jokes. Nothing to get seriously offended. But I understand
the feeling. If one is in the class of people which is targeted by the
joke, that person may feel offended, sure.
But that is not the reason to dramatize the lack of humor and lack of
social interaction and incite hate movements.

Look at categories of jokes:

beauty, ugly... somebody will get offended, either ugly or
beatyful. The answer to the joke is best another joke. Not being
offended.
That is why PC means "politically correct" and now people who are
getting offended for their opinion that somebody said something
politically incorrect, they call for important social figures to "step
down", or "to resign", or to "cancel" them, and so on.
I am thankful I do not spend my time in such hateful environments.
Look at categories of jokes: accountants, attorneys, aviation, hair
and bald people (sorry Samuel), baby jokes, barbie jokes, children,
clinton, college, and just think -- somebody can always get offended.
That is lack of humor. Those jokes are not even personal. But if one
gets offended for a joke, that is ridiculous.
What GNU community lacks is bunch of jokes. There are too few.
