It's not really though has it? You can be the most offensive mysoginistic openly racist and any other disciriminatory @#%&! you want to be all over social media and no one will bat an eyelid unless you are a public figure who has just got a job where those characteristics would mean you're completely wrong for it, then people will dig it out and beat you with it. I don't see how that's wrong to be honest.
Do I think Phil Neville beats his missus? No, but I do know that given what happened with the last manager, this was always going to play out like this and it's his own fault, not societal distaste for off colour jokes.
