Has anyone else noticed how terrible “comedy” is these days? It’s bad enough that comedians are no longer telling jokes due to their terror of offending cancel culture. But they can’t even bring themselves to tell jokes about the joke in the White House.
Saturday Night Live, a show that used to be funny a couple of decades ago, cannot even bring itself to do a single Joe Biden sketch. Dude’s been in office for six weeks and they still haven’t done a single joke about him, despite presidential sketches being the bread and butter of the show since the show’s inception.
And the trio of late-night sellouts in this meme are just as bad. After eight years of sucking up to Barack Obama, followed by four years of nasty, completely un-funny partisan bashing of Donald Trump, they’re all shooting blanks when it comes to comedy.
Look on the bright side, though. We still have one place where we reliably can turn to for great jokes and comedy: Memes!
If it weren’t for meme creators being willing to push the envelope, there wouldn’t be anything left to laugh about in American society.
