Divine and Anti-Divine Comedy

I was about to say there's nothing funny about witches, but that would be inaccurate; rather, they are often inadvertently humorous, but they themselves are incapable of genuine humor. I will stand corrected if Hillary Clinton, Liz Warren, or AOC ever utter a spontaneously witty comment. 

I stumbled on a good essay on this subject, called Guerrilla Comedy, by Emina Melonic, who is either not a witch, or one of the good ones (https://americanmind.org/features/court-jesters/guerrilla-comedy/):

any ideological and authoritarian system abhors humor. State appointed writers, tasked with the grave responsibility of disseminating state propaganda, are almost by definition humorless except as the butt of jokes themselves...

Know them by their fruit, and their bitter fruit is a disapproving scowl that warns you to Think before you laugh. 

Which is why "Finding a state-appointed comedian throughout the history of totalitarianism" is difficult if not impossible. Note that throne-sniffing anti-clowns such as Stephen Colbert and the rest of the late-night castrati have internalized "the regime’s censorship: put bluntly, they are letting the bad guys win." Thus,

Plenty of entertainers masquerade as comedians, but in reality they are doing something like anti-comedy -- not subverting but reinforcing dominant modes of thought. (Ever since Barack Obama was elected president, this has been the state of basically all mainstream late-night shows...)

Nothing funny about that vacuous, jug-eared tower of pomposity. As it pertains to these predictable assouls, you will have noticed that

their routines boil down to using mockery as a strategy for reinforcing a list of leftist ideological points, and forbidding a list of disfavored right-wing thoughts.... The jokes are rarely smart or incisive, and have instead the character of schoolyard taunts: they are social cues for distinguishing the ingroup from the outgroup. 

It reminds me of how the Demon understands evil, but does not and cannot understand good; rather, he can only understand the good in terms of some ulterior motive, which is precisely how the left pretends to understand us. 

For example, if we are opposed to state imposed racial quotas, it is because we are racists, or if we don't see anything about abortion in the constitution, it is because we want to KONTROL WIMMINZ BODYS!

Think of leftists making fun of conservatives. Very rarely do they know their subject well, and thus, the comedy act has nowhere else to go but to retreat into full-blown mockery. What is lacking is intelligence, and a clear sight of human absurdity in the everyday.

Now, a witch needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle. Indeed, what is toxic femininity but the feminine detached from its complementary pole and therefore spinning in darkness into a parallel looniverse? So, 

Much of it has to do with an attack on masculinity.... The differences between male and female are not acknowledged, and neither are the aspects of masculine and feminine personalities. A huge portion of true humor comes from the reality of these differences -- and the inherent absurdity of inverting them as in the case of drag and now transgenderism. Since these subjects are now effectively off-limits, comedy is increasingly forbidden.

In this unhappy world, there is NOTHING FUNNY about the ridiculous Corporal Klinger in the sitcom MASH. Rather, his crossdressing character is there for DRAMATIC RELIEF from all the lighthearted gaiety of war.

I never imagined I'd live to see the day when laughter is a revolutionary act, but here we are.

Every time we tell a joke, even to only one person, we are renewing pleasure and joy. Humor will endure, if only as a form of ideological guerilla warfare: too makeshift, too decentralized, and too natural to its environment, for any clumsy totalitarian invasion ever truly to wipe out.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a lame joke followed by forced laughter -- for ever. Because if they can make us laugh at what's not funny and stifle our laughter at what is, then we've surrendered our nature to these spiteful mutants.

Speaking of witch, we're almost done with this book, so let's wrap it up. 

I suppose laughing at what's not funny is a subset of the larger postmodern project of accepting false as true, because there are no absolutes; in other words, the tyranny of relativism 

demands that you accept that things you know to be lies are, in fact, truth. Witches were always understood to be in league with the Devil, who is described as the "father of lies".... By contrast, God is understood to be the truth and to value truth (Dutton).

Thus,

accepting postmodernism, and especially transgender ideology, can be seen as a rejection of God's Creation -- or of objective reality, to put it another way -- in favor of an alternative reality in which Man is God.

Consider the infamous DON'T SAY GAY! bill in Florida. In reality, it is simply a law to protect children from being indoctrinated into an ideology that tells them men can be women because there is no such thing as empirical reality. But for the groomers, "believing in the empirical truth, and asserting that you believe in the empirical truth" is no defense, because reality is hateful.

One of the phenomena that the transgender movement has led to is, in effect, the serious abuse of children, something with which witchcraft was also associated. Children are being raised in an environment in which parents, social workers, and teachers are positively encouraged to accept at face value any confusion they may experience about their gender-identity (ibid.).

Sowing seeds of chaos into the very ground of reality. It's what the Evil One does. But one of the most effective ways to piss him off is to laugh at the absurd spectacle.
