I watched the clip they posted of this. Look, there can be funny conservatives. These are not any of them. This clip is in the uncanny valley of unfunny — genuinely without humor, yet also not unfunny enough to cross over into funny-because-of-how-bad-it-is. It’s just deeply embarrassing.
/2 Naturally Bill Maher loves it. You could set Bill Maher’s dick on fire with a crème brûlée torch and he’d think it was hilarious if you told him it was mocking liberals. The funniest part of this is conservative people will miserably and devoid of joy watch it, suffering to own the libs.
The thing that gets me is that JP used to be funny. Back when he was a hippy poking fun at other people on the left, he had some pretty good stuff. But it seems like as soon as he became a conservative, he forgot how to write humor.
The clip does an excellent job of highlighting how obsessive they are. It's an entire clip of a singular focus of weird little pet faux rage over mostly gender issues, that most people find completely unrelatable
It's kind of a marvel to see in to their little world and how detached it is
Adam Carolla paid them to make that show so that he didn’t have to say he had the worst right-wing cartoon of 2024. I can’t think of any other explanation that makes sense
True satire comes from understanding people and why they do the things they do, and thus being able to pinpoint the absurdities inherent in their behavior and their environment. The people who made this cartoon understand nothing; not trans people, not “wokeness”, not even themselves.
And you are explictly told to support it not because of it's quality or that's it's actually funny--but for the sole reason that other people won't like it. So weird
Forgot who said, but conservatives inherently want status quo, so their jokes are on the people needing help/change and that's just more or less bullying
The thing about South Park is that even the rare times I though “them boys missed the mark tonight, don’t agree with that at all” it was still brilliant comedy
