    They don't have to. Given you know you're going to a stand up gig beforehand you can safely expect that things will be said in jest without taking things literally. With high profile comedians who are known for using dark humour going to those gigs is kind of a caveat emptor situation as you might have gone through a horrible thing and they've joked about that general topic without knowing their audience's experience. But they're not supposed to and don't have to otherwise censorship would run rife and barely any comedians would survive. Poor attempts at humorous and malicious statements need to be better interpreted. Either nothing's sacred or everything is.

    I'd still never have said it. Again a catastrophic failure to read the room and a poor attempt at dark humour that fell flat. Better to judge on consistency of behaviour rather than isolated fuck ups in this context IMO.
