    Depends on what kind of joke they’re making. Key & Peele had a lot of great comedy about Obama. SNL’s Jim Carey Biden impression was great. But conservatives are almost never funny, generally their “comedy” is about bullying someone for a perceived social transgression or physical/mental flaw.

      They lack the critical thinking to come up with critiques other than, old man old haha or Insert abelist joke about his stutter here all the while he has arguably done so much shitty stuff that they never even meme about cause they are too dumb to see it.

        Yeah I mean that’s not much of a joke but it’s not offensive. It’s just expressing a viewpoint. But a Republican would be like “hurr durr Biden is demented” or some such crap

    Democrats love making fun of the president. Doesn’t matter the party.

    Many Democrats think Trump is so bad that he’s worthy of ridicule. But also realize that Biden is kinda shit too, but at least he’s not Trump.

    The various @politics communities are currently chock full of a weird deflection of all jokes and criticisms of Biden and a focus on jokes and criticisms about Trump. It’s pretty hard to see how the blue team part to this pans out at all.

      Not good. Cultish behavior is for extremists. When you lose the ability to laugh at yourself, it’s a sign that you’ve lot the ability to criticize and evaluate yourself honestly.

      “People who are into politics are way too into politics” is hilarious to me.

        There’s people into politics and then there’s people INTO politics. It’s the latter category you need to watch out for.

      ‘Not being into politics’ is the most ridiculous position you can possibly take.
