I saw both and although I didn’t find them funny I don’t find most of the jokes here funny

One mentions immigrants, they aren’t a protected group, nothing to see here

One mentions Islam and as there is no definition of Islamophobia (yet) I cant adjudicate as a non-specialist in that area. I’ve also seen other groups and faiths used in the same manner here with no comment. Islam Doesn’t appear to be the butt of the joke in any case, rather just part of the setup, the judiciary do and they aren’t a protected group so again nothing to see here although it’s probably in worse taste than the other one. I may ask my Muslim family member what he thinks later
