How the left gave up comedy...

[2aguy]

There is a new look at how the left has decided that comedians no longer have to be funny.... as if in some science fiction movie about a totalitarian state where the comedians simply work to promote the fascist state.....like the host from the television show in The Hunger Games....

The Left Gives Up on Comedy - Ricochet

Gadsby is just the latest progressive giving up jokes. Comedians’ most celebrated moments these days are laughter-free. Jimmy Kimmel was praised for weeping through a monologue about healthcare policy. Kathy Griffin fainted during her stand-up set about blowback from her faux Trump beheading. “Saturday Night Live” highlighted a somber musical elegy to Hillary Clinton.

In a 2017 wrap-up, the New York Times enthused that “the most memorable moments of the year in comedy were not funny.”

This age of political buffoonery, media panic, and perpetual outrage is a comedy goldmine — right when many comedians are losing their sense of humor. As the left grows ever more dour, their political prospects will continue to fade. As will the laughter from an audience who could use a break from the anger and despair

Yeah.....us conservatives think that comedy is supposed to make you laugh.... wow, we are the ones who don't get it...right?

Making a right winger laugh is easy. Just take away any programs needed by children, the poor, or the sick and give the money to the rich, and there will be RWNJs rolling in the isles.

There's nothing to understand. You're either humorous, or you're not. Modern humor is as stupid as its salesmen.

I do find all Democrats funny though. Just not funny ha-ha.

They like them some torture too. Gives 'em the giggles.

Don't worry, they still have specials and skits devoted to child sexual abuse, abduction, child murder, trafficking, and abortion. They're still the party of funny!

The Left Wingers have ruined the late night TV talk shows with their relentless hate mongering.
It's become unwatchable.

I just love how a wag who's spent his entire four years on this site drooling over gunfire and violence and killing and shit ----------- suddenly wants to tell us all about "comedy"

That's partly because the Left has now criminalized real humor. Comedians can no long tell jokes making fun of anything because you will offend someone and the Left don't laugh at themselves any more, they sue.
The Left only laughs at things which are not even remotely funny, but mean instead.
The Left revels in tearing down their own country.
The Left takes issue with their own traditions and sides with foreign countries.
The Left allies with foreign invaders while calling their own people deplorable.
The Left wants to impeach their president for simply telling the truth.
The Left uses every means to undermine, then stands shocked when they are not trusted.
The Left is so insecure it their own beliefs that they must make up lies about everything, then believe them.
Any comedian will tell you that Leftist audiences have lost the ability to laugh at themselves. They see nothing funny in themselves or the world-- -- they are grim, bitter, triggered and angry. The only things left funny to the Left is hurting others.

Except that the comedians are funny to their target audience, which isn't rednecks with little education.

Education makes people appreciate the humor in abortion and child sex trafficking?

I never thought you’d be interested or even talking about comedy.
I thought gun and comedy doesn’t go together.

No shooting lately?
