Its bad but righty comedy sucks even more so what can ya do?

Because it's often just propaganda.

It's so predictable

They're trying to appeal to something you don't agree with

Colbert in Report was cool you cunt. Hard to say for me how he's doing today. I haven't searched a way to watch it online.

>LOL CONSERVATIVES, AMIRITE?
>LOL RETHUGLICANS, AMIRITE?
>LOL BLUE COLLAR WORKERS, AMIRITE?
>LOL REDNECKS, AMIRITE?
>LOL BLACK GUYS ARE BADASSES, AMIRITE?

Because it's usually people who have endured hardship that have the best sense of humor. Most left wing people are sheltered and upper-middle class. Which is why they're left wing, they don't feel the effect that mass immigration has on the blue collar working class.

It helps spoonfood their agenda.

because your older than ~23

He just shills for Hillary and the Dems now

Colbert was pretty funny in the Report, ya dingus

Now, it's just shilling for Dems and Hillary

it serves no purpose other than employing the laugh track guy

leftie memepage admin for subtle redpilling of lefties reporting in

leftie humor is bad because you have a very limited range of topics you are allowed to make fun of. Mostly it's either

>"lol my life sucks, self-depricating nihilist memes everybody"
>"communist chic, SEIZE THE MEMES OF PRODUKTIION xD"
>"look at those rednecks and basement-dwelling sad virgins"
>"DEPRESSION/ANXIETY MEMES"
>"I'm not like the other girls, I hate cheerleader Stacey"
>"LOOK AT ME I AM SO DIFFERENT FROM EVERYBODY, so weyrddd"

Seriously, with right wingers, the topics to make fun on is virtually unlimited, compared to lefties.

pic related, some sterile piece of ass leftie humor example

Because they're sincerely mad.
You can't have people laugh with you when you're mad, you can only. have people laugh at you.

This.

People who are suffering from opiate addiction, zero economic prospects, and declining life expectancies have basically been told to fuck off and die. All empathy toward the people experiencing the rapid pace of technological change had dissipated. The show has been reduced to an economic elite circle jerk worshipping the endless pursuit of lower prices with zero concern for anyone else. Colbert surprised me when he started his new show... he summarily abandoned giving a shit about anyone but the bubble he lives in. No wonder Fallon is winning, he doesn't necessarily like everyone he has on, but he treats them with a modicum of respect.

because at the root of every joke is "I'm smarter and know better than you."

I remember enjoying the clear and seemingly honest satire from Stephen Colbert back on the daily show and maybe his first season as a host. Thing is it might just be I was way younger and less opinionated.

Don't bother. Its stunningly bad. Completely unfunnny. It's amazing how terrible the show. I don't think I've ever laughed at anything on it and I used to like both the Late Show when letterman hosted and CR. yet somehow when they combined the two they managed to make what is seriously the worst late night show ive ever seen. I'd rather watch jay Leno, its that bad.

It makes me pissed off Conan lost his show for "sucking" (I loved it, but he lost the tonight show anyway) yet Colbert is allowed to keep on going, despite his show being literally terrible and unfunny.

To be honest Colbert was funny on the Colbert Report. His fake conservative persona kept his satire from slipping into being obnoxious. I've always been conservative, but he was at least able to make a point through what was overall better satire.

Lefty comedy is not bad, in fact it's great. My guess is your sense of humor is just shit.

"and this is why you should feel bad for thinking independently."

tends to focus on younger generations (kids) because its a propaganda medium setting up foundational perspectives for children looking outside of traditional role models

Because it's just one big echo chamber.

He's pretty bad. You can probably catch some of his monologues on youtube. All he does is whip his liberal audience into hysterics about anything Trump does and makes flaccid jokes at his expense which of course his audience treats like the ultimate Trump takedowns. Most liberal comedians are just clucking around in circles because the people they need to listen to them aren't and all they know how to do is act smug and condescending. They forget that what attracted a lot of people to Jon was the fact that he could have empathy for the other side even when he rabidly disagreed with them. There's no more empathy in liberal comedy. It's all grandstanding and virtue signaling. They were so busy segregating the country into the enlightened "us" and the slack jawed too-stupid-to-vote-for-their-own-interests "them" they didn't realize they pushed their own base off into the "them" catagory. They don't seem have enough self awareness right now to course correct and unfuck themselves either.

woah what the fuck is an estonia

Because political humor is meh and most of it doesn't stand the test of time

Pic unrelated eh?

I hate how my fucking normalfag friends put on this bullshit like it's some sort of regular comedy routine and not political propaganda with a veneer of comedy.

Like WTF?? I wouldn't show my non-right wing friends Can't stump the Trump vids.

this

Seth Myers literally joked about how Trump mentioned abandoned factories and our crumbling infrastructure in his inauguration speech. He made fun of it for being "ominous"

It's like these people don't ever leave the comfort of their white-bread, metrosexual, walled off New York enclaves

>This
It's soulless virtue signaling/propaganda shit to feed to the retarded masses and keep them docile.

>People who are suffering from opiate addiction, zero economic prospects, and declining life expectancies have basically been told to fuck off and die.
>fuck off and die
well they should, moth oppiate addict zero prospect having fucks belong to the "personal responsibility" crowd of the right wing.
>waaah librulz don't care about us
Well good riddance, maybe one of the few things they do right.

Because they're afraid to offend.

Because their type of humor is of the "I know, right???" variety, i.e. not humor.

Even if you do share their opinion you know they're catering to that lowly factor. Instead of true humor which stems from unabridged fun that requires no previous """knowledge""", you're treated with appeals and smuggy, cheap one-liners.

tl;dr It just fucking sucks period

i feel like its fair to say politically incorrect humor is right wing. tends to be at least

Its usually pretty low-brow humor. Especially with Trump.
>DUDE HAIR LMAO
>DUDE HANDS LMAO
>DUDE PUSSY LMAO
>DUDE CHILDISH LMAO
They get old real quick. People like Stephen should write Trump a thank you letter for guaranteeing they make loads of money over these next few years. Of course I expect by the end of Trump's first term the views will start to drop off when people realize Trump isn't Hitler incarnate and it stops being popular to shit on him when it becomes all too clear the quality of life is improving. Saying
>"D-don't thank Trump for Ford staying! It was actually this and that, NEVER thank Trump he can never ever do anything good ever period!"
will only work for so long.

>well they should
Then don't get upset when they start acting in their best interests by voting in people like Trump, or pushing for a natsoc government

List some right winged comedians.
Larry the Cable Guy?

>REPUBLICANS
*BOOOOOOOO HISSS*
>ARE
*silent anticipation*
>STUPID
*thunderous applause, laughter*

Stephen Colbert had more balls (or pretended to have more balls) when he was a Strawman Republican.

youtube.com/watch?v=fjIuPSuYSOY

There are still some dudes on the left fighting for it but yeah liberals decided that what was funny wasn't funny so they started making humor that was too safe and sterile.

It's smart comedy. Your brain capacity is lackluster to understand it.

>DUDE REPUBLICANS LMAO

so smart

jesus christ how did we get to this point. remember when right wing was all about pure thoughts?

>tfw to smart to understand leftie comedy

>lackluster to understand
Master English before criticizing the brain capacity of others.

The cutting edge of left comedy is alt-left/dirtbag left which is the reddit to the alt-right's Sup Forums. Dated le edgy racist mey-meys but I don't really mean it, I'm saying it ironically and guys I totally respect women so I'd never joke about them.

You kinda get the feeling they're more racist, sexist, etc than they're willing to admit to themselves but they just can't step away from vague socialist dreams and progressive causes.

>It's smart
doing the same joke over and over again isn't smart.

Surely there is no way that this attitude could backfire.

Sup Forums

We are the arbiters of new age comedy. And we do it for free.

Is there even such a thing as public righty comedian?
>Inb4 Trump/Putin etc.

It used to be good, but comedy is ultimately about telling the truth.

It gets so old

>OMG men are such monsters, women are so smart, like so smart!
>ever notice how people from the south are literally the worst? I once heard one end a sentence with a preposition!
>babies are so gross! Women that have babies are so stupid! I can't believe people want families! Abortions ftw!
>did you know people believe in God? Like lol!

It gets so old.

>it will only work for so long

Liberal would unironically blame Bush for everything after 100 years of democratic presidents.

They dont care about quality anymore. They just want to keep on pushing out the narrative (((THEY))) want. Its Marxism.

I was this type of person until recently but now I've noticed how lefties think. They think that they're enlightened and that everyone else is stupid.

>lol Catholics amirite?

>DUDE WEED LMAO
>DUDE BLACK PEOPLE SAYING ANYTHING LMAO

>DUDE WHITE PEOPLE LMAO

Conan had the tonight show taken from him because he constantly made fun of how shit nbc was.
They deserved to be insulted because they were shit, but he underestimated how petty tv jews are
He was the only one who deserved the show and they stole his dream

Most comedy is trash

Because they didn't need to try for the last 8 years

I noticed something, when I listened to these white, (((white))) comedians they always make jokes about how they fucked up at a point, and what poor decisions they made in a certain story.

So basically they make the audience to laugh at them, its like said but more like US WHITE PEOPLE HUH, WE ARE SO SILLY LOL. they are shaming themselves, that in these situations they were guilty, and made mistakes.

And when the comedian is not white, somehow the whites are the laugh subject. Really interesting.

Because they don't have to funny to get applause from people.

because humor which must watch its language lest it offend somebody is not humor but a children's movie.

it's just pure demagogy

My theory is that most types of humor contain a certain degree of nastiness, aggression or criticism, all three of which can cause "offense". The trick is to portion out these elements so they deliver the most comedic value. That means you need to be in control of your emotions, but also, crucially, be sincere about them. On top of that you must also accept that ruffling a few feathers is part of the job.

Now, what are some classic traits of the common liberal?
- No control over their emotions.
- No sincerity, everything they do is for their own value or virtue signaling.
- Terrified of offending anyone

Basically, they have no idea what they're talking about which makes their humour come across as weak, empty and insincere. On top of that, they're shit-scared of offending people which makes their humour completely spiritless.

The only people who find that shit funny are betas, snowflakes and empty-headed sheep.

It's part of their beta/victim complex.

"OH LOOK AT ME I'M SUCH A FAILURE, RIGHT?"

Most normal people would be ashamed to be a failure, yet liberals and cucks wear it as a badge of honor. Not only that, they expect people to like them for being losers.

When you know a movie like Rogue One gets 8.1 on imdb it explains a lot on people's shitty tastes

War with PRC happening when?

Anime alliance- USA, ROC, ROK, ROJ, Australia, HK, Singapore- M A G A fuckers

They try to hard to be funny, either that, or they can't laugh at themselves.

it is shockingly bad at this point. I think the stage is set for a right wing comedian to take over one of the late night shows, some proper politically incorrect humour would bring in yuuge ratings imo

Thats pretty much the sum of lefty comedy right there

It sucks because they can't joke about anything without offending someone. The only socially accepted content in the eyes of the left is insults towards the right. No nigger jokes, no jew jokes, no mexican jokes, no bong jokes...nothing. Lefty comedy is devoid of all merit and when I rise to power, they will be thrown into the oven as well.

Everything gets old, you can't act smug and indignant about the same shit for long without people getting bored.

>State opinion on contemporary subject
>Claim its common sense
>"Come on, people!"
>*Pause*
>Raise eyebrows and bug eyes out
>Open mouth in shock/confusion
>Can also opt for a smug "gotcha" grin
>*Cue laugh-track*
OR
>Go on rant
>It has to be at least a 45 second long appeal to emotion
>Pretend to be sincere
>Pretend to be serious
>*Audience Claps*

Also important: If your host is foreign, make sure to bring it up as much as possible and state that the United States is inferior in every regard to place of origin.

Rinse and repeat
The formula is so old.

Because they went from satire and mockery to full blown subversion and damage control.

The world has some serious problems right now and this shit is not fucking funny any more. Women getting raped by Muslims isn't funny. People losing their jobs isn't funny. People being ostracized for having opinions isn't funny. People acting like smug self righteous cock heads isn't funny.

People have had enough of faggots like pic related.

Comedy is funnier when it's counter-culture. This is also why alt-right memes are funnier.

>Comedy is funnier when it's counter-culture
No.

Because you explode/get triggered like a little bitch when they make a joke about your boy.

Conservashits need to lighten up sometimes.

That's not comedy/ This is comedy.
youtube.com/watch?v=eQQ2btbidWE

The formula of comedy is tragedy + time. They decided to take out the "tragedy" part.

>you don't own nothing goyim man has empathy

top kek

Leftists have this tenacious insanity where they must eradicate all advantages for everyone until a semblance of equality is established. The purest form of amusement is Schadenfreude - being happy about someone else's misfortune. That's not compatible with the dead end mentality of equality. You can't point fingers and laugh at failures if it's not allowed to even point out failure. Where normal people see amusement, communists see evil fascist, chauvinist shit. They encounter problems of this kind in every circumstance of life (see something normal that's not compatible with equality -> pretend it's fascism/chauvisism). It's why communists don't know good food (vegan) or how to be attractive (feminist) or how to be good at your job (socialist) etc. etc.

Bill Burr has very politically incorrect comedy however I wouldn't necessarily brand him conservative as it's highly presumptuous, and his wife is black.

stewart lee is pomo wankery and antiwhite hysteria. kill urself.

Most of the best comedians are leftist

This is true. Also they have been in a position of power for so long now that they have become very comfortable, which leads to bad art in general.

topgear fags on suicide watch

The problem with that statement is it's almost impossible to be vocally socially conservative or else your career is over. So you have to say to at least some degree,
>yeah gays are ok I guess
>yeah trans are ok I guess
>yeah I love Caitlyn Jenner I guess

It's the degree of which they flaunt their social liberalism that tells you if they're batshit or just trying to keep their job.

I am just curious how long Seth Meyers can keep up his nightly ten minute trump segment. Made sense during the election, but I mean. Every night for the next four years? Is that his plan?

Nah not shit. Just doesn't find propaganda funny.

>Why is lefty comedy so fucking bad?

Because comedy requires people who are willing to push boundaries and be self deprecating - it requires a good amount of self hatred a lot of the time as well.

Lefties, however, are unwilling to push real boundaries due to their obsession with PC and while a lot of them do feel intense self hatred this doesn't manifest itself in the form of truly dark, self deprecating, humor but in furious lashing out at people they disagree with as they project their own insecurities and hatreds.

They used to be the counterculture, now they're "the man". They're like a miserable high school teacher trying to be funny.

South Park summed it up well

So... all comedy?
