AITA for "backing out" of an agreement I never made?

The fuck do you mean by that? And yes I'm aware it's an expression but I'm not sure you're using it correctly. You seem to be implying I'm a bad person because I made a bad joke, even though I apologized for its offensive nature, left a fucking disclaimer, and further explained how I actually feel about it. You're making the mistake of believing that I'm defending and minimizing the holocaust. No, I'm not. I'm defending the right for people to make jokes that other people might not find funny, especially when they are nonsensical and the one giving the joke clearly means no harm and has self-awareness. And I did it in a very diplomatic way up until people starting slinging insults at me. But sure, I guess I'm the asshole. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
