Seinfeld says that far left woke mobs have killed comedy. He also dated a 17-year-old. (lemmy.world)

I personally disagree, I think comedy punches everywhere, and occasionally those punches land down. Conservative bullying on the other hand, only punches down, over and over.

I think Jimmy Carr punches down. I think it's okay to punch down as long as it implicitly understands that it's wrong. I think that's why some Frankie Boyle jokes (who used to write for Jimmy) land as well as they do.

Conservative comedy can sometimes be good? The thing is that it needs to thread a better needle.
