They exist, though few in number. They’re the ones loudly complaining that you can’t tell a (racist) “joke” any more.

It's because they all identify as comedians.

(Yes, this is the one rightwing joke).

You need to be self-reflective enough to laugh at your own BS. Monomaniacs spouting out their grievances don't make for the best laughs.

Because their idea of comedy is something like: "foreigners, am I right?" *shaking head
