Just so you know, I am not one of the downvotes, but I still strongly disagree with your comment and it rubbed me the wrong way.
The asking for directions "to stay away" is a running joke that (I think) originated in "It's always sunny in Philadelphia" and neither in the show, nor at any other point does this running joke make fun of the victims, it specifically makes fun of the hypocrisy of the statements.
The late sex workers are not the butt of the joke and so I strongly believe that your disgust is misplaced.

You're trying to add nuance so this will probably not go over well in this dumpster fire of a comment thread, but you are correct. The butt of the joke is the person asking the questions because they look like a creep/pervert/overly horny. This is a form of self-deprecating humor on part of the original commenter in the screenshot, but apparently the internet is still where humor goes to die.
