God, they’re so fucking bad at humor
They’ve been told punching at things that scare them makes it funny. They’ve also been taught hate and fear make for good comedy. It’s like they watch all the legendary comics - Carlin, Williams, Pryor, Martin, I could go on - and completely miss the point.
Just like they’ve misunderstood or didn’t bother to look at song lyrics they claimed they were fans of.
No, no. Fuck the Police is ahktually about the libs. When NWA says “the police”, they’re talking about “the police state” created by libruls that silences speech because it can hurt snowflake fee fees. They are “coming straight from the underground” as the suppressed fighters for American values and freedoms. /s
Well funny thing is liberals, or in the case of modern politics neo-liberals are a police state creator as well. So they’re not wrong, but the liberals aren’t doing ENOUGH to create a police state THEY want.
Rage Against The Fucking Washing Machine
I’m attuning to this idea that Nazis and other hateful people were raised on the image of tough people, but never understood the well-meaning elements of those champions of masculinity - the why of their fights.
They need to be taught that a joke without laughter is pathetic. Maybe they already know and that’s why they’re so mad at everyone.
it’s insane, because growing up there were conservatives who were funny.
now they are so deranged and out of touch with basic humanity they cannot make jokes.
I dunno, a lot of conservative humor has been punching down.
It is, no doubt.
But grew up with Tim Allen, and hes conservative, but was funny. No one can deny that Galaxy quest is funny.
Modern conservatives are just. not funny.
Tim Allen wasn’t always a conservative, I think that started around George W. Bush era.
Dude was literally a cocaine dealer. Not that conservatives cannot be drug dealers…
I imagine the stuff you’re thinking of (Home Improvement) was years before he ever said anything publicly to suggest he was a conservative.
I’ll give you a maybe, was under the impression that he was always conservative and has gotten worse.
not a hill i really care about.
My understanding is he was abusive as well which tracks still.
I am in no way defending him as a person.
My point is that conservatives have gotten so much worse, they have lost touch with basic humanity, they are incapable of making jokes because that involves some level of humanity to connect to the audience.
Similar things with art, Lion King is a really conservative movie (literally pro apartheid), but god dammit, it is an amazing movie. compare now with conservative movies that are trash.
Well I was more pointing that the usage of power and accruing it is an example of conservative mindsets and why their modern comedy sucks. As you said, it requires empathy and they see that as a weakness, a flaw than what it’s needed.
Ehh… I remember thinking Dennis Miller was funny for a brief moment before realizing that was just a feeling of superiority for actually getting one of his references. While the joke itself wasn’t very funny.
I’d love to hear some examples of funny conservatives.
galaxy quest is funny, Tim Allen is conservative and was funny back then.
not sure of other examples.
to be a conservative now it’s all Identity politics no humanity and the jokes are just references to things they hate. not even a joke. just dark “blue haired liberal barista, with white guy saying he wants coffee”
Yes, please. 🤤
i like my blue haired baristas to be at least socialists and unionised, not liberal.
Galaxy Quest is funny in spite of Tim Allen imo
I’ll have to rewatch to confirm, but I don’t want to rewatch Tim Allen so I’ll take your word for it
