    The various @politics communities are currently chock full of a weird deflection of all jokes and criticisms of Biden and a focus on jokes and criticisms about Trump. It’s pretty hard to see how the blue team part to this pans out at all.

        How does that in any way explain the bizarre, near-vitriol reactions of blue team participants to criticisms and jokes about Biden?

        A relative excess of funny would just explain more jokes, and poorly.

          I work with disabled adults so the “Biden has mental decline” jokes aren’t amusing to me, specifically, and I actually couldn’t give a shit about the families of politicians so the Hunter Biden stuff isn’t amusing to me, and the “gender lol” stuff is so extremely played out to me…

          But I’m open to actual jokes about Democrats. And memes. Do you have any that aren’t those? (This is a “you” to the conversation at large.) I’d love to have something to share.

          Eta: It’s been 2 days so I checked back and the only answers asking for jokes about Democrats have been ignored. I’m disappointed as hell and now I think that the whole “Republicans don’t have jokes” narrative is actually true.

          Thanks, Obama.

    I’ve seen both sides get crazy butthurt and both sides not care at all. I think both sides are way too into politics rn.
