Again, that’s not “joke.” You can call it shock humor, if you find that type of thing funny. But like I said, any person could commit murder and call it shock humor, and they would be just as entitled to say so as you are to say ponies dabbing while committing the holocaust is shock humor.
Now, further, please take discussion of the policy refinement and such to this thread
Poll 3 is about propaganda (stuff like Nazi flags all over the place in porn), and has just started literally as I was typing this, so I don’t know yet exactly how staff feel on the matter.

That would not be shock humor. Humor has to have a joke in it. Killing a person isn’t a joke or humorous. Juxtaposition of a dabbing pony and a violent act is humorous. Juxtaposition is one of the tenets of humor.

joke: noun
a: something said or done to provoke laughter
especially : a brief oral narrative with a climactic humorous twist
b(1): the humorous or ridiculous element in somethingHis description of the image very clearly falls under the second definition stated here. Is there a reason only the first should be valid? Because even it doesn’t totally preclude shock humor.
