But who decides what's offensive? Is it jokes about sex? Race? Toilet humor?

You can't go see a comic, and laugh when he makes fun of the bald guy, laugh when he makes fun of the redhead, laugh when he makes fun of the fat guy, but then get offended when he makes fun of the guy with glasses, because you have glasses.

The topic title doesn't make sense. If offense causes funny, then it's funny whether or not offense is the only cause.

That's the way people are now though. Its all funny unless you identify with whatever group is being made fun of. Then it's not funny anymore and the comedian should be cancelled.
