"The reason you’re not that funny is because you’re woke. Humor relies on an intuitive & often awkward truth being recognized by the audience, but wokism is a lie, which is why nobody laughs." | I post this because I like seeing Musk point out this fact. It's obvious and he does a good job of it. (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

The lyncherdom of the Social Justice Racket requires absolute obedience at all times in order to avoid stepping on the wrong eggshell and being targeted with enormous social pressure (like your family telling you kill yourself because of tweet that got interpreted wrong). You can't effectively make jokes in any real sense when you are scared of abuse.

Simultaneously, the humor on the left is nothing but clapter, rather than laughter. This is because it is an extension of the lyncherdom: a purely virtue signaling act to the people around you that agree with what is good. The reason the left can laugh at completely unfunny jokes that target their specified outgroup is because it is a pressure relief, like normal comedy, but for entirely different reasons.

For normal comedy, it can function as a pressure relief valve for tense situations that could be publicly taboo. There's more to it than that, but that's one aspect. For the Social Justice Racket's culture of lyncherdom, it's a pressure relief valve for people knowing that they won't get hurt if they target the right people with the right rhetoric.

You can see this at work in audiences who look around shiftily to see if anyone else is laughing.

Imagine the sound of a woke crowd "laughing," the hissing through a hundred noses, the spastic jazz-hands flapping . . . sort of like a wake where nobody's sorry about the asshole in the box.
