The right needs to create elaborate theories of victimhood in order to even construct a punch-up joke. Is this why they prefer bullying humour, or is it why they have a persecution fetish?

Hey everyone guess what, I found something less funny than comedy theory: trying to understand unfunny people! 😀

Don't forget they have to contradict themselves at every turn. "Go woke go broke" vs "cancel culture", "the 2nd protects the 1st" vs cheering on cops beating up protesters, party of traditional family values vs supporting a dude who's divorced several times and is in court for misappropriation of campaign funds to pay off a sex worker.

They want to persecute others, so they assume others want to persecute them. It's always projection.
