While I tend to agree with you, in this day and age, who determines when it is just a joke and when it is not.
Trump tells jokes all the time (some funny, some not) and it flies right over the heads of those who hate him. I might dislike someone, but if they tell a joke, even if I do not find it funny, I acknowledge it is an attempt humor.
The PC police want to punish anyone who might tells what they perceive as an offensive joke to a PC protected class of people.
Anyone else however (such as straight white people) are fair game.
Bill Maher has a good skit (I will not post the link because it has vulgarity in it, but you can look it up on Youtube), entitled "Learn How To Take a Joke".
He as a liberal points out some very obvious truths regarding what essentially amounts to censorship because of Political Correctness.
The nerve of some of the PC warriors to lecture comedians like Jerry Seinfeld is something Maher rails against, in a very funny and telling way.
He likens it to lecturing Steven Hawking on astrophysics.
All that said, lets face it, Warren seems to be a throwback to feminist women of the 60's where she wishes to impugn all men, and is likely the hardest core feminist running for potus.
In the process she turns off many men & women who know the gender wars of that bygone era are over.
But if she thinks it will help her, good luck.
