About the so-called “plagiarized jokes”: welcome to the internet. Memes and one-liners have been reposted thousands of times since 2009.
Like millions of others, I often don't know the original source of a joke that’s been reposted 100,000 times. The goal isn't to claim ownership, it's to share a laugh.
That’s the entire business model—if you can even call “having fun” a business.

@cmconseils@mastodon.social @sashag@anarres.family Unless you handcraft every joke by hand, EVERY joke is plagiarized. The whole point of a joke is to share and reshare. :)
