I don't think you understand the purpose of dark comedy. The jokes aren't made for normalizing the actions, they're to lighten people's seriousness surrounding every waking minute of their lives. If I make a 9/11 joke, does that make me a terrorist? If I have a shark party when a shark kills one person, does that make me a trans-shark?

The whole point of his joke is that he never wants to see kid photos. How much of an explanation do you need? You don't have to think it's funny to see he's not trying to normalize anything other than stopping parents from sharing photos of their stupid fucking kids. This is over-sensitivity, sir.

So he's trying to make us see the light side of kicking dead babies? Yea.. the thought of kicking a dead baby around the room just brightened my shitty life...

I make jokes like that sometimes too. Its necessary. I watched it too, and do still have suspicions about Gervais however.

Its more because he's famous and works with Netflix now more than anything else. That guy is shady.
