STOSSEL: A new kind of comedy

A woman stopped her in a carpool lane Tells: Her pronouns are "they" and "they", so she is allowed to drive there.

This is from a video of a conservative Christian satire site called Babylonby. Their humor gains millions of views.

"Christian conservatives used to be ... very moody and self-serious," says Bee Editor-in-Chief Kyle Mann in my new video.

Today he says, the self-serious is the left. "They are people who have a hard time laughing at themselves."

For example, late-night hosts like Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert are enthusiastic defenders of the COVID-19 vaccine. .. "It's a lecture," Mann complains.

"The left was a dissident," added bee actress Chandler Juliet. Now she says, "They're blobs ... I'm very happy to be able to lead the comedy conversation on the right."

One Babylonby video, The Woke Zone, teases how the media ignored violence and arson during the George Floyd protest.

"Have you ever provided a lot of materials with gratitude to the left?"

"We have to write something more interesting than what they are actually doing," Mann replies. "It makes our job very difficult."

One bee sketch depicts a writer struggling to find new material. "John Kerry warns that the war in Ukraine may interfere with climate change." One suggests.

No, another person will explain. "It really happened," yes, Kelly really said.

"Cosmo magazine has a morbidly obese woman on the cover as a picture of health," said a math professor, "2 plus 2 equals 4" is a racist. I'm saying. Among other ideas that can't be used as a joke.

"The math professor actually said that 2 plus 2 is equal to 4 and is a racist." Mann explains that it is "the idea of ​​colonialists and white supremacists."

Today, bees reach more people than onions. Some people actually make the so-called fact checker of bees chic because the facility doesn't like it.

One article confirmed by Snopes was titled "Bernie Sanders swear to round up the remaining ISIS members and allow them to vote."

"Don't Snopes understand you're joking?"

"I think they know what our intentions are," Juliet replies. "They don't like us."

Recently, Twitter has banned bees. Their crime was to tweet an article entitled "Babylon Bee's Man of the Year", Assistant Secretary of Health and Welfare Rachel Levine.

Levine is a transgender woman. It's no joke to call her the man of the year. However, she does not need to be censored.

According to Twitter, Bee can only be returned to the platform if you delete the tweet. Mann says he doesn't.

"Twitter has the ability to delete the tweet itself. They want us to be the ones who bend their knees and click," Yes, We admit hateful deeds. "We are not going to do that.

Today, many comedians attract a significant audience by mocking the left. What I found interesting was JP Sears, Ryan Long, and Freedom Toons. Culture is changing.

The most recently rated late-night comics are often Fox's Greg Gutfeld, not Colbert, Kimmel, or Fallon. Even a few left-handed comedians like Ricky Gervais and Dave Chappelle are ridiculing the intolerant left.

"I talk about AIDS, famine, cancer, the Holocaust, rape, pedophilia ... One of the things you shouldn't joking about is identity politics," Gervais said in a recent Netflix special. say.

Professional media critics have thrown him in the trash for that. However, the specials were very popular with the masses. The rating of Rotten Tomatoes has been revealed. Critics rate Jarveys' special rating at 29%, calling it "not terribly strange" and "a self-righteous, insensitive and disgusting combination." Viewers gave it a 92% rating.

The same is true for Chapel's latest special, The Closer. Critics say it's only 40%. The audience gives it 95%. Obviously, many people are fed up with self-righteous and disdainful humor.

I'm glad Babylonby and others have given us a replacement.
