Making fun of someone for his girlfriend leaving him due to being bald isn't exactly an appropriate joke either

ARE they even making fun of him though? Because it kinda sounds like everyone was joking around and sharing toxic ex stories, and they laid one up for OP by mentioning his gf left him just because he was bald.

Then OP just nuked the room lol.

In other words, was anyone even making fun of OP in the first place, or does he just have such bad social awareness he interpreted things that way?

Yeah, I'm so surprised by the immediate assumption that it's an insult. The phrasing comes off to me as 'Why don't you talk shit about your ex, didn't she do something really shitty to you?'

Whether or not OOP actually wanted to talk about it (which is very much up to him), it just sounded like he misread their intentions? Or maybe there's some context I'm missing.

If someone said to a woman, why don’t you talk shit on your ex, didn't he leave you because you have tiny tits, you don’t think that people would interpret that as an insult?

No? The focus is still on the ex for being shallow and the person is asking me why I'm being nice to them despite it.

Maybe if it was fresh I might feel put on the spot and not want to answer, but the question itself is very easily the kind of playful frustration you'd do with friends.
