The main ideas of the passage are: i) The job of a joke is to offend its target(victim) irrespective of its status. ii) The cancel culture deems it inappropriate to joke about people deemed lower in society. Option A: This option includes both the main points and hence is the correct answer. Option B: This is a distorted option. The ideas in the paragraph are not intended to persuade to include people from the lower class in the joke. Thus, this is not the correct answer. Option C: Again,this is a distorted option and can be eliminated based on the explanation given in option B. Option D: This is also a distorted option, as nowhere in the passage the duties of a comedian are mentioned. Thus, this is not the correct option. Thus,the correct option is A.
