It's not that they are left wing, it's that great comedians are almost always contrarian. What we know now as the best comedians are a result of the backlash of right wing morality in the 80's

Like it or not conservative comedy usually involves no wit, it's literally "look at these people they are different to me, ha ha lol!". People see how lazy this is and move on.

The left have made comedic careers out of poking holes in conservative ideology, that is not to say they do not have shit-tier jokers. I cringe at the trump hair stuff, it stifles real debate. Trump is a very funny, very odd character, calling him a "LEETERAL NAZI" is old and boring.

However /pol/ is the epicenter of conservative comedy and it's shit. 99% of jokes about aids skrillex are about his appearance, with only a few actually tearing apart his ideology and what made him that way.

Pol will scream and howl that a popular funnyman will dare to joke about a silly conservative but will do the exact same thing when presented with the opportunity. It's weak and people see this, it's why conservative humor will never take off.

Think about it, people on the left largely hold the same values with the only difference being the intensity of their beliefs. The right consists of a bunch of "smaller" ideologies that don't always gel, but they're painted with the same brush because they are different from what is on the left. Libertarians and hardcore conservatives don't actually have much in common, but they are both seen as right wing because they aren't the left. There's no center anymore.

Right wing are censored.

Also, it depends what you mean by ''left wing''. Moderate Liberals are fine and natural, especially when it's on economic issues. Look at John Cleese. He's liberal and quite left wing, mainly economically. He's not an SJW.

But yeah, then you have SJW's. These people are unatural and brainwashed. There a no SJW comedians unless they're paid shills or just not even funny, like that Amy Shummer bitch.

SJW's can't take a joke as too many things offend them.

DiPaolo and to a lesser extent guys like Florentine, Colin Quinn, Norton and the rest of the O and A regulars.

As a general rule of thumb, comics are libertarian which in America is similar to constitutional conservative.
English comics are all shit.
Check out Nick Dipaolo( Conservative), Patrice O'Neal (red pilled on women), Colin Quinn (Hates liberalism but is moderate), Bill Burr (red pilled on women)

Aside from that the best comics aren't political at all. Dave Attell, Doug Stanhope (Libertarian at heart).

A good young non political comic is Big Jay Oakerson. He has a good podcast with a right leaning libertarian (Dave Smith) called Legion of Skanks. It also has another funny comic, Luis J gomez. For the best environment for conedy look up clips of the Opie and Anthony show which was right leaning and anti pc. Another good example of non pc generally conservative comedy was Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn.
Pay no attention to anything from LA or London. All hippie nonsense. New York/the north east has the best stuff.

Political comedy relies on simplifying the world. The humour comes from the idea that something that seemed complicated is actually very simple.

>Why are comedians almost entirely left wing?

For the same reason that Hollywood and the media are mostly left wing, the people who decide who gets promoted and who doesn't pick like minded entertainers. You might be the funniest right wing comedian in the world but if you can't get on stage it won't matter.

Exactly.

Jokes work because they are unexpected, illogical, hypocritical even. There are funny and unfunny people, people who are drawn to the unexpected, the illogical, the hypocritical, and mockery.

Leftism embraces and is fueled by all of these things, but it tries to make it reality.

Liberalism is *literally* a bad joke come to life.

The backlash to people losing their jobs over political correctness has already started to swing the pendulum to the right with way more force than we've seen in years. That happened in 2014.

Liberals and the whole political correct movement are literally on suicide watch in the United States. Why do you think pic related has so much support? Quite honestly I support the guy just to see baffled news associates and leftist political figures (and some right wingers) try to figure out how they can't sue him into silence.

Furthermore, people who did lose their jobs because of the media pushing a PC (aka anti straight white male) agenda are counter-suing and winning.

In the UK they'd still be locked up for "offensive hate speech"

So the question remains:

I'm using myself as a typical 20th century model as I'm trying to make sense out of the world around me … typical in the sense of being one of the damn good models around these days. I am typical in the sense that ...a lot of people are on the same wave length as me. I get fan mail from people that are absolutely stunned that there's somebody else besides themselves who thinks this way. So, we're a minority, but there are a lot of us. On a planet this overcrowded, a minority can have a few million numbers. … More scientific than religious. More open than dogmatic. More optimistic than pessimistic. More future oriented than past oriented. And more humorous than serious. I really dread serious people. Especially serious, dogmatic people. I regard them as sort of what Reich called the emotional plague. I regard them as very dangerous.

I could see that. We do that here too - if someone doesn't support the agenda of the network (based usually on sponsor agenda [aka target audience]) then they'll never be asked back or worse, they'll be sued if a sponsor drops. That's why Trump has been able to cut above all news stations - they can't sue him (he only countersues and wins) and at this point he's so popular that it's more profitable to piss off some sponsors and get the ratings when his face is on TV than to not broadcast his face at all.

A lot of """""comedians""""" here get big through the public media apparatus. Which is infested with far-left crazies. End result is all the """""""""""""""famous""""""""""""""" """""comedians""""" (at least nationally) have the exact same political ideology.

Except political correctness is not a left/right issue. People lost their job and went to prison during McCarthyism. That was an extreme period of political correctness coming from the right which the country still hasn't really recovered from.

People are confusing PC as being left wing which is why you get people in this thread thinking comedians saying offensive stuff is somehow makes them right wing despite their actual political position and views. Being politically correct including to an extreme says little of your political ideas.

best thing Trump can do is get real cosy with a big media company boss right now while he's white hot and looks like he stands a chance, the media company will see ratings in being the one to have support for the president before he is elected and will feel they will get exclusives for their shows with him for the future.

McCarthy was right. Also, during the time you were not having random members of the public being fired, jailed or whatever for simply voicing opposition the current way of things.

Stop being a lazy fag and research yourself. There has been multiple analysis like this. It basically boils down that satire is a left idea since it mocks the status quo and being conservative is sustaining that status and the fact that most right leaning view dislike irony because they equate it to dishonesty. That is why conservatives favor people that "tell it like it is". And hence why conservatives DOMINATE radio talk shows.

Stewart Lee politically is a sort of an old early 80s British socialist and has even used political correctness in his routines before people recently started going on about political correctness. He self identifies as being politically correct himself but uses it in the correct context unlike how it is used today.

Although his recent comedy vehicle series has been shit his last one was great.

He sounds serious to me:

>They say humor is the ray of light that illuminates the evil or whatever, but I was reading that in Germany and Hitler times, everybody was making fun of Hitler. Every cartoon was against Hitler, there were comedy troupes doing sketches about Hitler being an idiot with a stupid mustache and what a stupid little idiot he was. So anyway, there goes that theory about the power of comedy. It doesn’t work at all. That’s seriously how I feel about Trump. It sounds very cruel to say about a person, but when the country is responding positively to rough comments — and those are just the ones he’ll say, kind of anti, everything is anti, against, stuff like that — well, all I know is that I’m going to make sure my kid has his Canadian citizenship.
