Imagine putting this much effort into being mad. You realize it's been the butt of the joke for a long time now? You should be upset at the American justice system, not some random guy.
I have a problem with dark humor only online. I live in a society where almost anything can be joked about. I fall on the ground -> I laugh, 3 of computers I tried to start for an exam fail and lose me exam time -> I laugh, my dog falls from 8th floor from balcony.. it takes some time but I end up laughing about it. Heck I even laughed about getting molested as a kid though years later. Joke is only bad when it makes the person in question feel bad and she is fucking dead. Are we supposed to avoid a sensitive topic because ~10 people could feel bad? When people make jokes while they starve to death is it improper, because it can sadden their neighbors? Joking is a way to cope with sorrow with different ceilings across cultures. When in Rome do as Romans say and in middle space (internet) shut the fuck up (not the author of the comment I am replying to) and tolerate each other.

Using a murdered woman as a joke, didn't think Linux users had bad taste. Maybe I should stay on windows.

Didn't think Linux users had bad taste? Have you seen the amount of those guys who use GNOME?

Or, hear me out, the joke draws attention to an overprivileged murderer who has thus far avoided justice (which is cool and good)

Well, he died, so either that is justice or he never got it and never will.

I hadn't heard! It's been a rough week for me, so that was welcome good news.

I believe he was acquitted in the criminal trial.
Anyway, it is your god-given right to choose your operating system based on this image and I support whatever decision you make.

Doing the "I'm a murderer" joke is a gross take.

Afaik the meme is telling us that Linux doesn't save a "Windows PC", it murders it ... apparently.

I laughed and then was surprised by the comments. Damn, tough crowd. I didn't think OJ jokes would still be so touchy in 2026.

On the account of him being, you know, dead.
Venat0r@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 160d
you never know, he could be a ghost, or be trapped inside a pigeons body or something.

Keep blocking, buddy. The internet might not be the right place for you.

Ngl, my sense of humor runs dark as fuck, so I got a laugh out of this.
Which might piss people off, but IDGAF. I've had brains on my hands before, I no longer have to GAF about others' opinions of my humor

Humour = Tradegy + Time.
People make fun of 9/11 (hell, there was Titan implosion jokes they day it happened). Why is this death any different?
