Anyone ever wonder why there are very few far-right comedians?



They exist, though few in number. They’re the ones loudly complaining that you can’t tell a (racist) “joke” any more.


Seinfeld is right wing, TIL.


What do you mean, is Washington DC not a comedy circuit? /jk


It's because they all identify as comedians.

(Yes, this is the one rightwing joke).


You need to be self-reflective enough to laugh at your own BS. Monomaniacs spouting out their grievances don't make for the best laughs.


Because their idea of comedy is something like: "foreigners, am I right?" *shaking head


Hey, come on, carrying a sink and saying "Let that sink in" is god damn hilarious...
