This is a picture of the typical "american" stereotype. I do not find this offensive. Some americans might, but they will have to accept that it exists. If I did find it offensive, I would have to accept that there is nothing I could do about it and move on with my day.

Listen. I can kind of understand how you feel, I myself personally have a huge distaste for jokes of sexual nature. I would be the happiest if they were straight up banned, but I recognize that we should not establish a rule that benefits a really limited collective. As long as it is not intentionally directed to insult (because that counts as straight up trolling), I think that it is completely fine. Think about it. As far as I know, the people who do those jokes are not actually against muslims, they are just joking around. It's just how I like edgy jokes all the time about sacrificing people yet I wouldn't actually dare hurt anyone IRL. Their intentions are clearly not bad, and the jokes do not really affect that many people. This suggestion would benefit a really small group of people while being detrimental to the rest. While this does not involve me, I imagine a hypothetical case that *would* affect me. I would not be very happy if my jokes were banned just because around 5 people in the entirety of TF felt offended by them. I think you should do a similar empathy exercise.
In my point of view, it benefits the most people to not have this in place. Therefore, I object.

if you find them offensive, report them to me and I'll ask the person to remove them. reminder that we have a zero tolerance policy for this kinda stuff I'm fine with that. This can be closed. Once again you've created a thread and changed your mind within 30 minutes, even 20 minutes this time. Please consider the tip I gave you. It really cannot go on like this and you are smart enough to know that: Requesting a forum sanction for yourself and revoking it within 30 minutes is very impulsive; impulsive posting seems to be your main issue. Here is a tip from me: when you want to post something, write the post, and when you're finished, save the text on your computer. Wait at least an hour, and then look at it again and decide whether you still want to post it. This may be annoying for yourself, but it will help you make your posts more thought out.
