Why do right-wingers have no humor?
Hello Rabbi
I recently came across this cartoon: https://x.com/Torat_IDF/status/1810198510051966976
I myself am right-wing and receive much of the criticism of the High Court of Justice and the Attorney General’s Office. But regardless of the message, I don’t understand what the connection is between this cartoon and humor. It seems that the creator doesn’t fully understand the concept of humor, and it feels a bit like they tried to explain to the GPT chat what a cartoon is and this is the result. I remember getting a pretty similar impression from other right-wing humor platforms (for example, “Latma” or “Bardak”), there is a certain lack of vision and a complete absence of nuance or sophistication, something that I think is present in left-wing political humor (not always there either, but it never reaches the same blatant levels as in the above cartoon).
Does the rabbi have any idea why this is so?
