I always want to tell these fucks that it’s “the right to free speech” not “The right to never suffer consequences for your actions” or the “right to never be criticized.”
How funny you need to be is directly inverse to your target when making fun of something/someone.
Punching up is commentary, you don't need top tier comedy to speak to power.
Punching on the level is observation, if it is reasonably funny you'll land it.
Punching down is bullying, better bring the funny hard or it becomes mean spirited rather than funny.
Edit: Half of you are fucking morons apparently. The point I am making is that you have to be funnier the more offensive you get otherwise that shit wont land.
When was this made? Because maybe it came first, but it seems like this is just a simplified version of this comic from a few months ago. Like beat for beat the exact same joke.

The rules for offensive comedy are pretty simple.
