Conservative comedy is based off the world as it is, so it can be short and pithy. You already know most of what the joke is about, your own life experience does most of the heavy lifting.

Progressive comedy is based off the world as it "should" be so they've got to lead with three essays of progressive indoctrination before the joke could possibly become funny.

leftist jokes often lack any satirical sense, and any relatability or likability is just replaced with ham fisted moralizing.

This is how a leftist stand up comedian would sound: "Did you ever notice when you walk into a bank and all the employees are white men? Its like dude, haven't you guys taken enough from everyone already? Now you gotta take our money, like what the fuck? Go play golf or listen to Sinatra or whatever boring shit white people do! Like am I right?"

I wouldn't be surprised at all if you took this from some unfunny faggot's ''stand up'' routine, it's insane to me how comedy is deprived of anyone funny nowadays.

Go play golf or listen to Sinatra or whatever boring shit white people do

Some golf and good music sounds good to me, much better than playing basketball in da hood and listening to real niggas gangtas or whatever boring shit they do.

Conservative comedy is based off the world as it is...Progressive comedy is based off the world as it "should" be...

Basically sums up the ideologies, too. Conservative ideology acknowledges that people are imperfect, and tries to work that into the system. Progressive ideology assumes that, with the perfect system, they can make people perfect. I hate to be so reductionist, since it sounds like 'my side good, their side bad,' but it really is a key component. Conservatives work within reality, progressives work from an imaginary utopia.

Remember, there is no problem a progressive cannot solve by killing people until the problem goes away!

And by 'goes away' you mean, 'we're going to ignore it because, even though we stacked the bodies really high, it didn't work, but we'll get 'em next time!'

The thing is, communism actually works. For villages of, what, 100 people?

Every implementation that does not start this way seems to work towards "village of 100 people" either by killing the population suffering under it in job lots or by the simple expedient of treating most of the population as cattle rather than people.
