Gutfeld! — The Decline & Fall Of The American Republic In Humor

Jesus H. Christ. If you want any indication of how fucked up America is right now, how we’re careening towards a “Fourth Turning,” look no further than the popularity of Fox News’ shitty “comedy” show “Gutfeld!”

Now, I’m not getting paid to write any of this so I’ve done no research other than that one time I was forced to watch some of the so-called comedy show when a conservative relative came to visit my house.

But what I saw of this shitty show was just dumb. It wasn’t funny. All the “jokes” were dad jokes that your MAGA uncle might tell at the Thanksgiving dinner table in an effort to troll his crunchy granola lesbian niece with blue hair and “they / them” pronouns.

And, yet, this show is popular. Apparently, really popular.

The fact that Reds are so absolutely desperate for humor that goes after “libtards” that they are making Gutfeld! a hit is very, very alarming. When Red and Blue can no longer even laugh at the same things, the country is on its last legs.

Get ready, though, when the US is an autocratic state, I’m going to wait for Gutfeld to replace Stephen Colbert.
