I didn't even know that a statement like that can be construed as genocidal. Depends on the context I guess. First thing that came to my mind was that statement meant "Cant be racist if all of us considered ourselves humans".

Well that statement definitely is not a joke and even if I overlook the immorality behind that statement it does not make me laugh. It seems more like a statement such as "water is wet". It's a statement so I don't feel anything funny from it.

Personally no but they are quite common in my country along with xenophobic ones that come from historical events, just like genocide. It's part of our favorite "dark" humour despite being occupated by Nazis and having concentration camps here as well.

Only people that arent funny think being offensive without a punchline is funny.
If the joke has a good punchline, yes its funny.

I forgot to mention, it also depends who you say it to. Say it to a president and you will most likely be arrested while say it to your friend who doesnt give a toss then its okay (if they don't mind)

Yes, I'll find any sort of joke funny. Nothing should be off-limits as far as humor goes, but there's a time and place for dark jokes.

I'd post some of my favorites but I don't want to get banned, so here's some clean ones:

-After a mugging attempt a few years ago, I started carrying a knife. My muggings are much more successful these days.

-A guy squared up to me in the pub yesterday and asked me if I had given his girlfriend dirty looks. "No, that was her parents" I replied.

-I was clinging for dear life to the side of the cliff. As the rescue team approached, one of them yelled, "Whatever you do, don't look down". So I started smiling.

-The police have just arrested the world tongue twister champion. I hope they give him a tough sentence.

I don't even get this one....what? What's supposed to be the joke? That they wanted an audience to a suicide? That the rescue team themselves were looking down? This is a terrible joke because it has no clear punchline. Are you sure it's a joke?

Well the expression is usually "don't look so down" so that's not an easy one to caitch.

Depends on the joke. If you make one without any sort of ill intent or you don't mean any harm it's all good. If you're just saying it to piss people off and offend people it can be pretty funny for a while but eventually everyone will grow tired of you and think you're an asshole or something. If you're saying it because you mean it then we have a problem.
Here's one I heard a while back:

I met a Jewish girl and she asked me for her number. I told her we used names here.


Not really sure if this counts as a "genocide" joke.

If a joke is funny a joke is funny, the topic should have literally zero impact. People who get upset over jokes of a certain topic or who laugh harder at a joke because it pushes some sort of agenda they believe (hopefully not a pro-genocide agenda jesus) are all fucking insufferable.

I find offensive jokes funny,

Whats the difference between a jew and a pizza? A pizza doesn't scream in the oven.

It depends, most people don't like jokes if it's directed towards something that they believe in. E.g. politics.

I like dark humour as long as it doesn't involve real people. If it mocks bad people doing bad things then I'm okay with that, but I don't find jokes that make fun of people for the sake of making fun any funny.

I'm very close with a person who basically invalidates anyone's feelings who take offence to the racist and disabled jokes he makes. He says that they're not allowed to get offended and they're the issue lol, only because he cannot understand the distress it can cause someone else.
