They came this close to perfect comedy. All they needed was a bunch of labels for AOC, the laces, and her shoes.

But will they get satire if the first two letters are written in white paint on a tire barreling toward their face?

They don't understand the difference between humor and hating someone

Ill be the first to say conservatives generally have like one, maybe two jokes at most that they just recycle endlessly. But this is actually pretty funny.

I'm not clear on what "conservative comedy" means in this context. Is it "comedy that isn't about being funny so much as it is about making the same reductive conservative biased political points over and over"?

Because yeah, that's not funny, and neither is "liberal comedy". No comedy like that is funny.

Is it a surprise to anybody that Ben Shapiro is unfunny?

Was him being funny some part of the Ben Shapiro pitch that I didn't know about?

He started using comedy in his podcasts a lot more in the last couple years. His fans compare him to George Carlin.

Do they really though?

The ones Ive had conversations with do. They seriously think hes witty and hilarious.

Weird, ok.

Sorry to doubt you.

If I'm honest it seemed more like a thing that people who don't like Shapiro would say his fans would say than something his fans would actually say.

But I guess I was overestimating his fans.

Shapiro is like the bottom of the totem pole of vaguely popular people like that. I would put him above somebody like Dave Rubin though, who just seems like a shell desperate for affirmation.

I'm not sure who I'd rate higher between somebody like Shapiro or Steven Crowder. I think Shapiro seems to have some principles, even if they aren't great, that he vaguely sticks to. idk.

Crowder is funnier, right? He kinda has to be, even if he's more of a hack.

Open question for everybody:

Question 1: Who do you like as a person more? Steven Crowder or Ben Shapiro?
Question 2: Who is a (intentionally) funnier person? Steven Crowder or Ben Shapiro?

I don't like either or find either funny, but I think for me it's
1: Shapiro
2: Crowder

Shapiro tricks people into thinking he's smart by talking fast. Thst is lost in his internet posts.

I support the vaccines.

And it depends on what you mean be centrist.

But what does this comment have to do with anything?

Yeah, he's not smart. And it seems like he doesn't really think critically.

Steven Crowder is objectively worse due how unbelievably racist he is.

To be fair Shapiro is racist as fuck too, I read about one of his (laughably poorly written) novels and hes not much different than Crowder. Crowder is for sure more explicit about it though.

Lest me be one to defend Ben Shapiro, but at least he hasnt done this.


To be fair, it is a valid claim that we should not have academic policies that discriminate against Asians.

But I do acknowledge him engaging in lazy tasteless racist stereotyping certainly makes that point hard to sincerely engage with coming from him.

I imagine that in Crowder's mind he thinks of himself as inheriting the legacy of something like George Carlin or South Park. A "takes no prisoners, doesn't back down, edgy shock comedy" without realizing how vapid and unempathetic he is.

When Michael Scott did racist Asian stuff on the office the joke was a joke about Michael Scott not about Asians.

I think Crowder either doesn't realize this, or doesn't care.

He seems to me to be a C-minus semi-racist unempathetic edgelord comic who lacks self-awareness.

Yeah, it feels like a parody conservative humor more than actual conservative humor itself.
