I Remember a time when Republicans could make fun of themselves

Now, every comedian making a joke about Republicans "is attacking them." Look at the comments section of any online source of any modern comic making fun of a Republican. You have way too many Republicans freaking out and getting defensive and threatening to forever boycott that comedian.
Trump has divided and conquered this country. Most Republicans have become extreme, tense, paranoid, hypervigilant and defensive to any critique.
If you can't make fun of yourself, and constantly have a defensive reaction to your stances, there's something wrong and ultimately, little place for moderation.

It's a shame George isn't alive for this bullshit.

I love Carlin but he was wrong on this i got to see him on Leno in person back in the day…
-
How many other Carlin clips can I give you that are wrong, you think?
George laughs at you.

C'mon you moral Crusaders. Let's see a little smoke to match that fire in your bellyyy.

Wow, talk about your out of touch liberal posts. You remember a time? Really?
There are no Conservative comediennes. They aren't allowed in Hollywood or on television. We have seen actors and comediennes ostracized and cancelled as a result of their political and religious beliefs. Literally fired for being a Conservative or a Republican. So you will have to excuse any Republican who doesn't find liberal comedy to be fucking funny.
tom hanks stepped over the line, just like so many in hollywood and the rat media. It wasn't funny and it wasn't meant to be funny. It was his opportunity to call half of this country racist. You know who laughed? Liberal pieces of shit. The real racists.

You’re a very confused young man.
Moralizing is leftist turf -
Being funny has always been liberal art. It's the nature of comedy.
Fascists think Roseanne rap is comedy.
You gotta step your game up.
This shit slaps on the 12s though.
-
BTW, there are fucking hilarious Republicans.
-
Sen Kennedy does crack me up. I'll give you that. I love dark humor though. Dude is twisted.
-
I disagree, but I like the passion.
-
Please become familiar with the works of John Locke, Thomas Hobbes, John Milton, James Madison and Thomas Jefferson.
That is liberalism.
That is what non-leftists believe.

Humor works best when it is funny. Hope this helps

Walk the safety up.
Same old play.

Which category do you think I put you in?

Why would I give any fucks about your categories?

Intelligent, but full of shit

I saw Carlin twice in Seattle. He just wasn't that funny. Not horrible of course but not belly laugh like watching Pryor. Funniest comic I ever saw in person that was wall to wall laughs was Dice. Not a dry eye in the place. Every race, sex, age and political type was in that audience of 5000 and it was non-stop laughter till it hurt by everyone in attendance.

This dude nailed it. Man I mentioned the new Captain America the other day, and my conservative friends went into an instant rage mode. Like I seriously said nothing even close to political in that movie, and they lost their shit.
My conservative friends are angry on a daily basis. It’s bizarre how effective right wing social media is.

Yeah, this happened, Spaz. Sure it did.
-
When Captain America said that Captain America isn't about being American or whatever I did not get upset. Just not interested
People have mocked Jordan for years but he was right - republicans buy shoes too
I don't' understand why a studio would want to alienate the audience before something was released
If he said that he was full MAGA and loved Trump and so would Captain America one might get the point

The left is known for its good sense of humor and making fun of democrats.
-
Saturday Night Live had loads of fun with Biden just like the old days….wait I am hearing that they did not in fact have lots of fun about Biden
-
Remember all those great bits about how incompetent and bumbling Kamala was?
-
I remember my 'PoliSci 201 - Intro to Theory' days.

I enjoyed the first two seasons of Reacher on prime and season 3 just dropped. I'll watch because he likes to smash people's faces in
But he was stupid to go after Trump voters.
-
Of all the things that never happened, I’m going to say this never happened the most.

The Throbber is into the Just Win, Baby theory now.
