    Assuming that’s real, yes, yes we should. Or The Onion writers should.

      I know nothing of the man. Literally zero other than the fact that he plays football and dates Taylor Swift. I just don’t find jokes about disabilities, including traumatic brain injuries, funny.

        Jokes can be about anything, you’re free to be a stick in the mud I guess. But you don’t get to shame others for not being that

          I am not a fan of jokes that target people’s ethnicity, sexual preference, or disability, and that definitely includes traumatic injury. If that makes me a buzzkill, then so be it.

            Jokes about these things can be done well. The true test is are these things the butt of the joke or not.

            The joke here isn’t, “haha, CTE funny”. The joke is a bit more nuanced than that.
