It implied people that don't fall under the white male demographic can't laugh at things like this, which is still not true. I mean yeah, people have different senses of humor and all that, but it came out in a way that made it sound like it would be interpreted as offensive instead of just "meh".

Though I admit, I don't actually think the OP's comment was even that bad (like I said, it sounded more like just a jab at the 'white male' creators); but I do see this general trend that I'm talking about a lot, so I figured it might be helpful to bring it up.
