things are different in Islam. And Leftism.There is no humor in Leftism, either. And for most of the same reasons…
“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam [or Leftism–ed.]. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious. Islam does not allow swimming in the sea and is opposed to radio and television serials. Islam, however, allows marksmanship, horseback riding and competition.”
― Ruhollah Khomeini
See, American Leftist comedians now almost ALWAYS just try and get mere “Clapter.” Actual stand-up humor most often derives from skewering sacred cows–there is ALWAYS a verbal misdirection, a juxtaposition of the serious and the ridiculous. And like Islam, Leftism simply cannot tolerate that.
Hence, Seinfeld and many comedians will no longer do college campuses.
There’s nothing funny in Leftism or NAZIs or East Germany, comrade! Yeah, Germans are famously un-funny for a reason…
