This is about where I stand on this issue. Although, I will only call someone out on dark humor when they fixate on one thing and it becomes annoying. Like those people who only make jokes about race, but take offense to religious jokes or whatever.

Traditionally, if the person takes similar humor in return without getting all upset, it helps a lot.

If the joke is a joke though, and it appears that the person means no harm, I find it hard to object. Hatred is entirely different.

I concur; if someone tries to be edgy in a certain regard, but maintains their own holy cows, it annoys me to no end. I've a special dislike for a certain breed of Atheists who enjoy mocking the Christian religion, yet maintain a devout faith in egalitarianism.

Sounds like you either don't know what "egalitarianism" means or you don't know what "atheism" means. Maybe both.

Sorry, are you implying there is a some sort of relationship between these two notions? If so, I'd love, love, love to hear you elaborate on that.

I think he's referring to the notion that endorsing an egalitarian ideology is somehow akin to having "faith" in organized religion, which of course is utter stupidity.

Eh?

I chose my words carefully; the Atheists who annoy me are those who've a devout faith in egalitarianism. I find this stupid and annoying.

Obviously, not all who endorse egalitarianism have a devout faith in it.
