@vivify saidYou are saying that there are conservative comics, yes. You see, you are highlighting, pointing out, conservatives (comics).
Did any conservatives watch the videos in the OP? They're from a conservative comic.
I, though, am writing about liberals who like comedy, they like comics. It makes no difference, a comic's political persuasion, it's just about the ever-lovin' jokes!
Ahhh, you see the difference in the posts.
@kevcvs57 saidJesus, ,our president is suffering from memory loss?? And we learn of it from a liberal socialist?!?!?
Wow I guess socialism and memory loss are somehow unrelated
@averagejoe1 saidJust to be clear, the conservative comic I posted made a video I thought was pretty good. I was not mocking that comic. He's an example of how political humor should be done.

@vitamin-pk4 saidBS!
Humor is relative.
So saying one form isn't funny is a moot point.
The people trying to ruin comedy are the liberals who worry about people's hurt feelings too much.
I don’t give a flying fukk about your retarded feelings, you right-wing kunt.
@vivify saidSatire is a tiny subset of comedy. The result of good satire is not a belly laugh, but perhaps a smile.
As discussed in a different thread, the problem with conservative comedy is that it serves no other purpose than to attack the libs.
Most conservative comedy makes no social commentary, has no ideas and makes no real points. It's only goal is expressing hate toward the left.
Here's some examples of how to do conservative comedy the right way:

And just for fun, here's one by the Onion:

The purpose of satire is to mock bad ideas. And mocking bad ideas is not hate.
No one expects to go to a comedy club or tune into a late night entertainment show and get political satire.
Satire needs to be done well for it to be any good. Just plane mocking is not worth anything.
Here is an example of what I consider to be good satire...
You're welcome.

@vitamin-pk4 saidThe issue is not whether or not conservative comedy suits our tastes, the problem is that much of what conservative comedians do isn't even comedy. The point is not to make people laugh it's to trigger the libs.

If conservative comedy was merely not unfunny I wouldn't have started this thread; but they're unfunny because the goal isn't comedy, it's propaganda.
The OP includes videos from a conservative comedian who actually seems to understand humor.
@vivify saidYes, and those are usually who we watch so do you have any examples of the bad kind?

@vitamin-pk4 saidFalse. Liberal comedians tend to attack specific politicians for specific reasons; conservatives attack liberals for no other reason than to express how much they hate liberals.
Liberal comedians do the same thing.
Look at Stephen Colbert discusses politics vs. Tucker Carlsen. Colbert will address specific statements and actions of a politician and why it's wrong while Carlsen will attack the entire opposite political spectrum for vague reasons. The difference is the approach to political discourse; one is to attack an entire spectrum of people (Tucker) and the other is hold politicians accountable (Colbert).
While Tucker is not a comedian, conservatives comics have the same exact problem and approach because their goal is propaganda not social commentary.
