If a joke is offensive but only for comic purpose, should it be allowed?

While offensive jokes may be used for comic effect, it is important to consider the audience and make sure that anyone who might be offended by the joke is made aware of it so they can elect to not listen or participate. All humor should involve informed consent from all participants.

It depends on the intent of the person telling the joke. If it is intended to make a political or social statement and cause offence, then it shouldn't be allowed. However, if it's just for comic effect and nobody is likely to be negatively impacted, then I think it should be allowed. Ultimately, comedic value is subjective and depends on how far someone is willing to go with a joke.
