You can take a look at your average right wing political cartoon. They're hilariously awful and a great way to see inside the twisted minds of right wingers.


Cartoon? Where are these even featured, newspapers? Who reads newspapers these days? Physical ones anyway? Even most poor people have a smartphone with web browsing capability these days.

They still get made and shared on Facebook and shit like that.

In what sense?


The Bluth family is clearly a parody of the Bush family and the whole "wealthy family fallen from grace" thing derives a lot of humor from rich people being out of touch in various ways.

Wait so rich = conservative now?

Also, if making fun of Bush is liberal humor, was making fun of Bill Clinton in the 90's conservative humor?

it isn't

but apparently just sharing such satire makes you a target

look at all the posters who tried to make it look like I didn't know it was satire when I shared it

No. That was my point. Is AD liberal humor because it makes jokes that seemingly would appeal more to left-lensing people? No.

This is why there is no good conservative humor and goes back to what I said. That have absolutely 0 self awareness.

I know, but out of all of the pics he showed that was probably the only funny "conservative" leaning picture there. The rest of them are garbage, especially the last pic because some loony Republicans are trying to push that Michelle Obama is a tranny.

Like half the jokes in an average cartoon are about people using weird half-logic to reach absurd conclusions.

This is why comedy routines are always left-leaning,

Imagine listening to Mal Fucking Fet about what is funny and what isn't. He's never made another human being LOL in his life.

Anyways, as I previously stated, the reason liberals are better at humor than conservatives is intelligence.

Satire works best when vouching for the underdog and making fun of the big dog and the status quo in society, so...

Conservatives are the underdog tho

Well actually he has but in the "so crazy it's funny" way, especially now that he revealed that he was a submissive, fall in line Republican all along and not really a libertarian.

Political humor isn't funny. People who say conservative political humor isn't funny/doesn't exist are just liberal, plain and simple.

There is one thing I think the alt-right is better at concerning humor. I notice they usually have better photoshop skills in their political pictures.
