I’m extremely concerned about the intensively arrogant and privileged Anti Woke edgelord chud comedy on YouTube like with Babylon Bee, Steven Crowder, Hodgetwins .etc

I am now looking for recommendations of some hilarious left leaning and woke vibed joke tellers and comedy groups on the platform in the same vibes as South Park, The Onion, Colbert Report, Chelsea Handler, WKUK, Sir Pelo .etc

So far I got it down with just Wizards With Guns, Mrs Betty Powers, Penguinz0, Chazington, Funkyfrogbait, and Contrapoints. Any other suggestions to try out

    Not explicitly YouTube, but anything by Dropout.tv. They used to be CollegeHumor and have transcended the humor and format of the old YT days and have created their own streaming service with incredible original content. Here’s a clip of famous Dungeon Master Brennan Lee Mulligan “defending” everyone’s favorite space pedophile.

    Much of their humor is general improv comedy but there’s plenty of leftism thrown in. They’re rad.

    ETA: For context, the clip I linked, the game is that the 3 players offstage are attempting to play a bingo game using the players on stage, by giving them “prompts” (i.e., “Go on Instagram Live and defend Elon Musk”) to make them say words and phrases that they say often. Brennan often complains about capitalism and billionaires, so Mike Trapp is trying to get Brennan to do just that. Hilarity ensues.

      Maaaaan, I loved dropout.tv! I was really bummed about the cop show cameo stuff though. it was hard to stop watching but I just don’t support shilling for the police in any capacity. Great group of talented entertainers though.

        …The Rookie is copaganda? lol I don’t think Dropout are shills for police, given how left-leaning they openly are. Seems like an overreaction.

        • Anything depicting cops in a positive light 100% of the time is copaganda. But I agree just being on ONE show isn’t really an endorsement of the police. If anything, it’s an endorsement of Nathan Fillian. I wouldn’t be surprised if Brennan was a Firefly fan.

          Watch the episode of Ted where Brennan DMs a D&D session for the main cast instead.
