So I technically can’t punch down on Americans

Black trans women in the United States are routinely assaulted and raped and have an HIV+ rate of 60%. You sure about that?

My point is that targeting vulnerable groups for humor isn't funny, it's just bullying and it's sad. It shouldn't be a controversial point.
