    I could, but those examples are not equivalent except for librarians.
    Nobody calls themselves hipster or beer snob.

      If I call you, for argument sake, a humourless idiot, am I still allowed to make fun of humourless idiots?

        Yes. I don’t see how that could be offensive, because I don’t think anybody identify as humorless idiots. So go right ahead.
        There’s a huge difference between targeting a demographic that exist and one that kind of doesn’t really.

        Obviously I don’t identify as a humorless idiot. I even noted the drawings are kind of funny, it’s the joke that isn’t.

          targeting a demographic that exist and one that kind of doesn’t really.

          But they both exist and overlap to the huge extent, so…
