Sounds like you're confusing "clearly conservative" people with "I have a dark sense of humor" people but I'm not sure there's much overlap, if any.

Way back in the day, when I still (barely) used Facebook (might've been my late teen years or early 20s, so early-mid last decade), a friend invited me to a group for "dark humor". Pretttttty much every 3rd post was about black people. You can get away with it a bit easier here because we only have like 3 of them, but it did not take long to figure out that "dark humor" for these people means "I'm allowed to make fun of minorities because it's a joke". I was expecting much wilder jokes, but nah. Garden variety racism.
