Why The Left Can't Laugh

[@HereForAStorm]

They can't laugh because they ARE the joke.

[@admangoe]

The irony of trump supporters calling others a joke is out of this world

[@smartazz61]

@@admangoe The irony of a progressive with no ability to look inward even attempting to troll in a sea of logic proves the premise of a nonexistent sense of humour all too well. Go away lefty. Isn't there a Michael Obama film festival playing somewhere? (Notice male spelling of first name.) Leave the trolling to the professionels. I mean, do we tell you how to spirit cook or kidnap children for pedophilic purposes? Or how to do a satanic vote stealing spell? No! We don't. So don't come a trollen' in our backyard then.

Humorlessness is a reliable sign of entrenched ideological pathology.

[@iamgoddard]

Humor is a sign of individual spirit and cognitive freedom. Ideological possession turns individuals into NPCs. :(

[@lehliladevandria5712]

Not to mention ANY psychologist will declare that no laughter,joy and humour is a sign of abnormal psychology. Which also is backed by the recent numbers regarding the millennial percentages of mental health diagnostics. It's actually frightening when you think of it. They have been indoctrinated and social media raised and nursed since birth to the point of mental illness.

A couple years ago, in-laws from California stayed at our house for a night. I knew they were very left, and I’m sure they knew I was not, to say the least. My wife just asked that I not bring up Trump or politics. They came, had dinner, and my kids were playing in the living room. I noticed immediately that they were staring at my daughter’s dollies, and my son was destroying his legos. There was a cross on the wall, a gun in glass on the mantle. I could tell they were uncomfortable, so I tried to lighten up the situation. My kids are howling with laughter as I pretended to be Dolly’s dad (did it all the time) and I heard the husband say it is a bit offensive to teach my daughter to listen to the patriarchy via the dolly. I held my annoyance down, and the fun was sucked right out of the room. They don’t care that my daughter was screaming in laughter, that’s not what play time is for in their minds. That’s why liberal kids are so dour and sad.

[@tuck-brainwks-eutent-hidva1098]

That is horrifying. With any luck, they'll never leave California again.... 🥴

Hi Michael. Big fan of your talks. Have not read through all the comments but just to clarify. Neither Denmark, Norway or Sweden er socialist countries. We have market economies but do have many social benefits which we pay for through tax. The usual tax rate in Denmark is 40% not 60% (which is the progressive tax tier). On top of that we pay 25% VAT and a ton of duties on most products. Keep up the good work and keep USA free.

Donald Trump gave one of the best speeches of his career. It was 30 minutes of great Oration, but in the middle, he said he would send terrorists to hell, and they would suffer forever, and that is a long time!

I think some on the left argue that what drives them is hope. To which I'd counter and say that they're relying on false hopes and that their hopes are likely not grounded.

Do they really believe that their recommendations would work? Where is this empty hope coming from?

While I agree with Michael on a number of things from this video, we disagree on one of his last statements. St. Anselm's ontological argument is compelling on the surface, but has some major flaws. It still is one of the best attempts at logically deducing a higher power (of which I'm am not denying the existence), but if has detractors who give refutations that take apart the argument's line of reasoning. Personally the first time I ever heard the argument I thought it was brilliant, and exactly the kind of reasoning towards which theologians should be striving.
