>Liberals uncomfortable with fact that much of comedy=poking fun at bourgeois social norms. And in 2016, that means poking fun at liberalism
Is there truth to this statement? I'm pretty apolitical, I don't care about Trump or Hillary or partisan politics. I laughed at comedians shitting on Bush in the '00s. The same people I thought were funny 10 years ago (CK in particular) have become completely preachy and unfunny to me now. Did many comedians become sanctimonious sticks in the mud or am I imagining things?
You stupid fucking redditor cuckold. Kill yourself.
Kayden Williams
life became less funny because we're overstimulated by the internet

i actually agree with this sentiment 100%
as an apolitical guy myself i was surprised to agree with something relevant that was said by milo: "being conservative is punk now"

Nah. Liberals are only funny when they're the heroes fighting the establishment
For the last 8 years it's just been pro establishment propaganda
Christopher Perez
I don't know if the world got stupid and constricting or if that's what growing up feels like and we're one of the first generations to share our experiences aging online
Maybe the internet broke everything. I don't know. Nobody knows. We're just a fucking spot on an orb covered in 7 billion spots flailing about trying to make sense of things
Levi Johnson
Well alternatively you chould verbally shit on the poor but that probably wouldn't come off as funny when you're a millionaire comedian.
Connor Price
>sticks in the mud
I'd say so. I grew up watching guys like Leno and Conan absolutely RIP Bill Clinton on a nightly basis, so it's not like they didn't used to go after liberals as well.
Hudson Lewis
Leftists are flabbergasted by the concept that they are now the system. They, quite intentionally, refuse to acknowledge that they're no longer the counter culture. Fucking sickening if you ask me, like Colbert and Stewart, I'm sure a lot of us used to respect or at least like them, until they became bold faced fucking liars for the establishment
No. I think that's part of the reason why Jon Lebowitz quit while Obama was in office. He was great at "speaking truth to power" when Bush was president, but he just didn't have the balls/integrity to continue doing it under a dem.
Henry Clark
That's what happens. Theyre now pro establishment and very open about it.
Nathan Gutierrez
Liberals are the defacto pro globalism - ultra cheap immigration workforce political side. Traditionally they are the ones that follow more easily the central political propaganda, like it happened with all left wing communist dictatorships around the world.
It's no wonder the ultrarich and the media owners take their side and promote them as part of the establishment.
Jonathan Parker
Comedy can be lefy or right wing, it can never be conservative. Sadly murrikans for some really weird reason mix the concepts all the time
Angel Nguyen
Yeah, it just seems a little too cozy.
Hillary on Kimmel seemed really fucking weird. Kimmel would have easily trashed her, or any other politician 15 years ago. I don't know if it's genuine appreciate of her, which would seems really corrupt on Kimmel's part, or fear of being buried by a twitter mob for mocking Hillary. It just doesn't seem like politicians get the same scorn as they did in the '00s.
Julian Ramirez
> It just doesn't seem like politicians get the same scorn as they did in the '00s.
*establishment democrat politicians. Everyone else is still fair game.
Benjamin Moore
Deep stuff
Lucas Clark
Kimmel is a full on shill now. I used to think the Man Show was decently funny, but now Kimmel is all about dumb skits featuring his celebrity friends, faking "viral" videos, those "ask the public" bits that people love to use to support their shitty arguments, and shilling for whoever asks him to do so. Just look at the Ghostbusters shit.
There isn't a single worthwhile late night show anymore.

The left wants to build these walls around concepts they don't want questioned nor challenged and you can't reconcile comedy with authoritarianism. The left wants things that contradict each other like genders are inventions but trans gender exist You can't do that with comedy and have comedy remain comedy, they like romantic comedy, they like children cartoons and actively demand videogames, a toy for children to become even more childish and non threatening to protect their own feelings not even the feelings of kids. Making fun of them is easy and making fun of them is hard. If there is one place where this hypocrisy is most evident is in comedy just look at the letter to Jerry Seinfeld be funny while saying exactly what we tell you to say to us

I'm not even really right wing, just contrarian hipster. And these predictable shills can never be really funny again. They are the antithesis of comedy - monotone boringness.

no its fucking not you fucking fuck

Being a supporter of the Democratic party is not being rebellious anymore. It's pro-establishment. The Democratic Party is bought and paid for by Wall Street. Outside of social issues, the big difference between the two parties is who pays for them. Do you want someone bought off by oil-gas, or someone bought off by Wall Street? They serve their paymasters before they serve your needs.
The new rebellion is against the party system. Following Bernie Sanders' campaign made me realize how shitty the system is.
Zachary Gutierrez
>punk has no place in politics, you're delusional

like many many jewish globalist media companies doing fluff pieces on corporate owned politicians like Obama and Hilary before you morons understand how much of a joke your political opinions are

It's basically communist china owned TV at this point.

There is truth to this statement OP, but liberals can't take criticism very well. The best we can hope for is SJWs turning on Hillary for not being liberal enough.

Doesn't really hold up when you consider that teenage pregnancy rates have plummeted in the last ten years alongside a push for greater sex education.
Noah Martinez
Young people are also having sex less often than they did 20-40 years ago.
That also coincides with a revival of traditionalist moral sensibilities in younger age groups however, so its hard to say what is causing what.
Connor Evans
Hillary and Bill were pro-war, pro-justice system and are pretty much directly responsible for the incarceration rates of minorities and the for profit prison system that is around today.
They will never be criticized by any MSM outlet, and you should really be asking yourself why.
Joseph Lopez
Did these people never read The Boy Who Cried Wolf? They have effectively driven the word Racist into the ground, it has zero meaning or impact now, but they are still crying wolf. I don't get it.
Grayson Scott
I dont understand how you can "poke fun" at the concept of being open minded and accepting of new ideas. That doesn't make any sense. Calling people "liberal" on this website has become like a meme, it has no meaning and you people just label it onto anything and anyone you dont like. Especially if its popular.

See, I dont even know what those words mean. I mean, I know what each individual one means but you're speaking like you were born and raised on Sup Forums, it's just retarded. I'm going off the actual definition of liberal, and based on that as a concept it doesn't make sense to poke fun at it.
Jonathan Cruz

Sebastian Ross

absolutely. left-wingers control virtually everything in society now. social media, every facet of the entertainment industry, governments, etc. and the left-wing outrage mobs don't help either. if he challenged her on anything, no matter how innocuous or sincere, he'd be painted as a misogynist bigot and would probably lose his job, and then be completely blacklisted from Hollywood.

Vote Hillary, shes GOOD. How do you know shes good? Your friendly talk show comedian(state approved political propagandist) told you she was good!

it's because they're not even telling jokes. they're just preaching.

>I dont understand how you can "poke fun" at the concept of being open minded and accepting of new ideas.
but that's the total opposite of what liberals are. you have to be pro-immigration, pro-trans, pro-blacklives matter or you're a bigoted racist white male who should pay reparations.
Evan Green
>The same people I thought were funny 10 years ago (CK in particular) have become completely preachy and unfunny to me now. Did many comedians become sanctimonious sticks in the mud or am I imagining things? Didacticism is the downfall of every great comedian; at a certain point they all politicize and the stage becomes a soapbox. Carlin was probably the worst offender.
Listen to this HILARIOUS skit! Can't you hear everyone in the crowd just howling with laughter at all the witty jokes?
You're right. He's hated far more than Romney ever was.
Andrew Miller
they're losing their grip on the youth because for all the propaganda shoved down their throats in school they have access to alternative sources of knowledge in the palms of their hands. it's one of the main reasons the globalists want to control the internet so they can use bogus "hate-speech" laws to censor websites like Drudge or Infowars that go against the MSM narrative.

If that's what MSNBC tells you, I'm glad you take comfort in blatant propaganda.
