    Tragedy is great fodder for comedy. There’s just a big difference between, “I’m laughing because this hasn’t happened to me” and “I’m laughing because this HAS happened to me and it’s better than crying.”

    Political: Making fun of Donald Trump or Joe Biden

    Not political: Making fun of literally all women

    Chud brains are the smoothest objects on the planet

        You think libs don’t get entirely bent out of shape anytime anyone dares make fun of their Lord And Savior Blue MAGA Joe Biden?

            Bibi’s Bestie Brandon.

            You never see anyone wearing a stupid ass blue Joe Biden hat and “Cmon Man” Shirt do you? People vote for him because they have no choice, not because they like him.

            I’m going to vote for him and its going to hurt my soul to the fucking core. That’s just how bad Trump is for myself, family, and friends. I guess I’ll have to choose a genocide fundraiser to keep my friends from being fucking executed as ‘pedophiles’, or whatever.

    Trump is cancer. But having Van Gogh memes and so on rolling on the socials just few hours after he was almost shot in he head an some guys end up dining was quite a shit-show to look at.

    Nevertheless to quote Trump regarding the victim of mass shooting: “Get over it”

      I dont know why this would be surprising. The man is a literal death dealer rapist who laughs at and mocks the misfortune of others. I wouldn’t ever expect any semblance of respect or sympathy towards him from the general public, not even for a second.

      People are going to roast him every chance that they get, and I think it would be naive to act like he doesn’t deserve the treatment.

    Man. Even if I DID think the whole “trans women are really men amirite LULZ” was funny at some point, it’s been their #OneJoke for like a decade now.

    I love Tim Minchin, but if every comedian I followed only sang The Pope Song I’d be pretty fucking tired of it pretty fucking quick (or insert whatever song here that’s just stuck in my head at the moment lol)

    Any of the “dark humour” places are always about racism and pro xenophobia instead of the terrible sex and/or dead baby jokes you might expect.

    Funny, but false. Tell me a dark joke about Donald Trump or religion. Please. In turn I can share a joke about minorities or gender.

        I thought it was the priests kids had look out for, but I’ll take it!

        Here’s your joke about minorities:

        What’s an Arab in the ocean? Pollution.

        What’s all Arabs in the ocean? Solution.

            That’s your definition of comedy. Comedy isn’t just some kind of tool to only make fun of the upper class. You must be thinking of cabaret artists.

            It can be used to even give the less fortunate something to laugh about regarding themselves. Nobody and nothing is above jokes, IMO.

            To me, it stops being funny when the comedian either:

            • actually believes in the things they say e.g jokes about Jews are fine - if you don’t actually believe they are subhuman
            • keeps making the same jokes (Dave Chapelle talking about trans people every goddamn show since what feels like a decade)

        If he were related to it, he’d fuck it too.

        And here’s your joke about gender:

        What do you call a transgender ninja?

        They slash them

        In fact, they were the ones that invented cancel culture. Even helped the forming of the annoying leftist callouts by accident (they just wanted to point out leftist/liberal hypocrisy, often for them to get away with way worse things, then leftists/liberals took it to the next level, sometimes they outright manipulate who should be the callout’s target to incite infights, destroy alliances, or just to see someone who’s “deserving” to suffer).

    “biden crime family” is perfectly acceptable to say

    but comparing trump to hitler? Nah completely and morally off the table, ignore the fact that we’re literally calling the biden family a fucking mafia. And when we do unironically say it, it’s also satire, so you can’t complain.
