      “my doctor always makes me get vaccines but I never see him take one”

      “my dentist recommends toothpaste with fluoride in it but she refuses to brush in front of me”

      You realize that these kinds of statements are not comedy to the dumbest people you know - they’re bold realizations that the man really had been hiding some shit from you.

      and then they elect Marjorie Taylor Greene. They elect Lauren Boebert. They elect Randy Fine.

      Rather than “your tax dollars have been funding an apartheid state after its intelligence agency blackmailed a shitload of our oligarchs with pedophilia which is now doing a genocide as it, and those oligarchs, take away all possibility of using technology to communicate freely ever again in Fascist takeover of the western world”, these are the people who looked at that evidence and went “hurr durr Jews bad”

      These are the people who said “Ivermectin for President!”

      These are the people who said “ICE is doing what I would do”

      These people are all around us, stop making them worse. They feed off disinformation in meme format because it’s all their feeble minds can process. Stop feeding them.

      Do better.

        I like to think I am, though I’d probably leave a comment in the review if they were spreading medical misinformation on the name of comedy or freedom or something and I wasn’t expecting it going in.

      You sound like you got lost trying to go to a comedy show, ended up at the Mothership on Schaub night, and laughed because everyone else was laughing.
