Why Conservative Comedy Doesn't Work: Mr. Birchum Review 

Salvador Dali is the most famous rightwing painter.

Castlevania isn't what I'd consider a typical "adult cartoon", seeing as it's, you know, good.

This isn’t about someone’s favorite show being on the list. you referred to castlevania and Superman as Family guy clones, and that’s just false

@@IndustrialMilitia Who?

@@MeowsterTheMeowingDragon Persistence of Memory baby.

You'd think such a blatant oxymoron in writing would be caught in the cutting room floor, but that would require giving a shit.

I mean, USUALLY that's true, but I will also point out that Aku from Samurai Jack is an exception to that rule. He's an unkillable, extremely powerful entity who is a goofy idiot that never truly wins against Jack. Usually because of his idiocy.

@@CorrectsYouwell in Aku’s defence, he can’t risk fighting Jack himself because his sword is the only thing that can kill Aku. The majority of Aku’s failings comes from just picking the wrong people to get the job done and in a lot of cases Jack is just an incredibly strong and capable protagonist. The same can’t be said for Mr. Burcham where we’re supposed to believe that the antagonist holds every social power against this random school teacher just because of “political correctness” which is just such a stupid concept on its own 💀

It's just, "Schrodinger's Liberal," is all...

@@CorrectsYou but isn't that like the joke of Samurai Jack? That it plays on this exact trope?

He never has to worry about that because they're homeschooled, where he is free to "violate [his] kids' consent all the time"

...without inviting him, too? lol xD

@Kite403 i mean, in Birchum its was without even *permission*, from the parents *or* the school, that's technically kidnapping.

I didn't know he had children.

Honestly, Matt Walsh looks like he could be typecast as a math or biology teacher that requires one of the attractive female students to come over to his house for some "extra credit".

King of the hill has actual characters and aren't just mouth pieces of the writing room.

@@HashknightGaming This is like the lampooning caricatures of Moral Orel with twice the hate in its heart and a quarter of the talent.

Well, Hank is also just a normal simple dude. Not a ridiculous caricature.

Characters in King of the Hill also work primarily because they are actually CHARACTERS and not just the writers doing a self-insert lmfao.

The characters in the other shows are actual characters, and not exclusively strawmen caricatures (for liberals) and steelmen caricatures (for conservatives) conservatives caricature themselves in the opposite direction as they do liberals.

I’ve heard this quote before and this fits perfectly.

ah Humberto Eco the man who made fascism an unfalsifiable accusation

Any accusation presented as unfalisfiable, should not be an accusation taken seriously

@@TheGateShallStandso if someone is seen on camera doing a crime, they didn't do it despite it being unfalsifiable? Or someone writing the ideals of a certain idealogy without even hiding it, is that not unfalsifiable?

@@Air_Serpent The camera is not an accusation that is proof, proof is not unfalsafiable. But, if we are to accept that it might be, then the answer is still up for debate. If someone writes about an ideology, then it is entirely debatable if they follow those ideals, and thus it can be falsified. If they come out and say it, then it is no longer an accusation, it is a fact. Both of your points fall flat upon anything beyond surface level inspection.

Also could be considered zombie Brickleberry (like so many other cartoon shows that look like this)

Except Hank would kick Mr Birchums ass!

@@awake6009Thanks :)

I really wanted this to be a reverse velma, but it's just lame bad instead of bafflingly bad

Velma was honestly edgier than this

Velma was at least interesting enough to warrant attention.

This channel can't admit velma is bad because they cant go against the narrative

Velma also at least has somewhat striking animation. The models also fall into that "adult cookie cutter look" when standing still, but the animation is fluid and has nice lighting and the ghost attacks look visually cool from what I've seen. I'll also give Velma another small point in that it apparently wanted to be it's own show, separate from any property but would only be picked up by WB if they based it off a pre existing thing. It's still not good, it's pretty bad. But I'll at least give it those over the fucking daily wire plus show

Because the heart of conservatism is "privilege, which the privileged know to be indefensible, must never be questioned because it can't survive it, so it is your duty to never learn or grow or think in any way". And if that's your goal, the last thing you're going to do is "research". Dollars to donuts the "man bun" character is just how Carolla has been stereotyping anyone who disagrees with him since 2000, and nobody else changed it either because why would they?

Conservatives are always "behind on the times" . Even in todays information age, it takes a Conservative 10 years to catch up.

Makes sense that their references for humor would be outdated, I've seen them use the same few pictures for the "triggered snowflake" they like to mock for over 8 years straight now.

@@michaelccozens Carolla is such a hack. He found one joke and made it his whole personality

They had an Angry Birds joke, so it's not that surprising how blatant it is this was written in like 2016 when the "TRIGGERED SJW" compilations were all over the internet

Not really inviting, more like forcing.

that's neopuritanism thought.

What’s that thing that self-identified conservatives get hot and bothered over? Rhymes with “brooming”…

Especially to force them to work on their house for free. If a teacher told me in order to pass home ec class I had to go to their house at the crack of dawn on the weekend to clean their house and make their kids breakfast and I wasn't even getting paid, they'd call the cops and have them fired in minutes.

@@wolfetteplays8894 Lol sure hun. It’s totally cool to force your students to do unpaid labor for you. That’s what the founding fathers wanted. Also psssst: this is a puritanical country.

Conservative comedy is just acknowledging that liberal talking points exist and having the fact that said talking points exist be the entire joke and the reason you would laugh

@@mythcat1273 That's like saying "Hahaha, they say that gay people should be allowed to marry and women have a choice to do as they please with their own bodies... That's so silly that just saying it out loud IS the punchline!". It only works if your audience is bought into that. If they're not, then it's not funny in the slightest. It's like constant in jokes that only appeal to a certain echo chamber that'd clap if you said "Lol, Liberals..." and that's it. It's just more blatant pandering than anything Disney could produce, and the irony in that is funnier than any joke told in this show.

​@@seventeenseventythirteen7465its not like that. thats literally just what it is 😆

Lady Ballers was a right winger's dream. Punch down to get ahead, cheat (faul walk and double dribble excessively) and when you get beat using your own tactics quit and pretend to have some kind of high ground. Then your ex-wife, who left you for a liberal comes back because you learned nothing and haven't changed.

I think originally Lady Ballers was supposed to be a "documentary" about how easy it was for men to just say they were women and join women's leagues. Of course that delusion ran into the brick wall of reality when no women's league would accept that without a full transition which of course is a long, difficult and expensive process which of course none of the "actor" were willing to do so they basically wound up making a shitty Juwanna Mann ripoff.

That's is because modern conservative comedy is beat you over the head with the obvious joke, rather than be witty or funny.

That would require nuance and competence. They're too lazy for that

you got that right, we don't

More like 2000s or 1990s

it varies on the school distract, in college I had to watch the John Stossel documentary "Stupid in America" which showed that students weren't doing so well in school due to it being very difficult to fire incompetent teachers and there was one point in the doc where they show a LONG list of steps to be taken, there's a thing called "Rubber rooms" where teachers that are deemed too incompetent to teach but can't be fired are forced to stay in a room for eight hours away from kids and they aren't allowed to do anything except sit there.

@@jadedheartsz Yeah, obviously he should go to my district. Violate the rules or commit an infraction? you're gone. If the District doesn't like you? They'll be following your every move and look for the first infraction. In my sister's first year of teaching? A student took out a sharpie and started marking a kid's neck. When the kid yelled "KNOCK IT OFF", my sister sent the student with the Sharpie to the office for initiating it. Sure enough? She was given a warning - because she "took sides". And for the next few weeks? Administrators who had gone missing for months were suddenly around every corner staring at her. Or the district where my aunt works at. Around the same time that documentary was produced? A student literally pulled out a hunting knife and a teacher grabbed him... and was fired because they "Touched a student". So literally for the next few years? students were running up to teachers and just attacking them - teachers couldn't retaliate and just had to take it. Unless an administrator saw it? There was no proof that it wasn't initiated. -.-; (Administrators? In the school? HA! Good one!) Tenure basically means they need to establish and prove "Just Cause" to fire you. When other places don't have that? Yeah - it's amazingly easy to fire.

I don't know why conservatives hate teachers unions but support police unions.

@@rachelk4805 They seem to have them all confused with Police unions for sure! If a cop does something wrong and gets fired, they just get another job in another town. If a teacher gets fired? They have to move several states over if they want to do anything but deliver pizzas.

@@rachelk4805 Actually, it's fairly clear, and ominous, why conservatives support police unions. Because they see the police as the one thing that enforces their vision of law and order on everyone else.

“Nobody agree with them” …A lot of people agree with them. Just because you purposely avoid leaving your bubble doesn’t magically mean “nobody agrees with them.” Nobody you hang out with agrees with them. This is such a ridiculous concept. NOBODY agrees with conservatives yet *somehow* they’re also a large enough demographic to get in the way of “progress.”

You could boil those down to ONE joke really: the "unpopular opinion" trope.

"People that ain't like us sure are weird, amirite?"

You're forgetting "my pronouns are dirty/diapers"

I did not know that beavis and butthead and king of the hill (which have an openly conservative POV) only have 2 jokes

What about his other catchphrase, "YOU CLAIM TO HATE CAPITALISM, YET YOU EXIST! IPHONE VENEZUELA 100 BILLION DEAD"

Nice haircut liberal! Did you get it at the liberal store? 😂😂😂

My favourite joke in the show is the vegan wolf skit because the vegan wolf isn’t even sick or malnourished, the other wolves just kill him because he’s different.

My favorite catchphrase is when the woke liberal administer says anything and Mr. Birchum starts screaming vaush bad.

Not really, man. There's no antagonism between rugby and football. Both are fun, and brutal.

The irony of Europreans labeling football as a girly version of rugby hen Americans view soccer as a girly sport lmao. You see, the difference is that European opinions don't matter, get on our level scrub.

exactly

Heck, why don't we Americans call our Football, "American Rugby / Amerugby / A.R.""? It has way more in common with Rugby than the sport where folks kick a ball around. Soccer = "Football" (because it's actually about playing ball with one's feet). Football = "Amerugby" (American Rugby, a weird form of rugby that's heavy on wearing padding, throwing and tackling). In the meantime, my USA self could use "Gridiron" and "Footie", respectively to describe the NFL-type sport and the FIFA-type sport.

Exactly

Yeah…no.

@@mystuff9999 Yeah .... absolutely

Perfectly stated.

I get this is just a short form of your comment, but it helps that Hank Hill is a good, nice guy. Even if you don't agree with him, you'd still want to hang out with him. He clearly loves his son and his wife. Mr Birchum is an asshole. If they had made his character at least attempt some level of kindness first and wrote around him being hyper conservative intertwined with being an overall okay guy, it would have maybe could have worked better? Obviously the jokes would have to be funny, but there's nothing likable about guy who goes: " I hate wife and gay and new thing"

Also, it's totally fine that Hank is an older (not old) more Conservative guy, because Hank - who's far from perfect - is a character capable of change. Hank is often confused (and downright irritated) by many things in life, but ultimately Hank is just another decent, hardworking person, capable of change - even if he has to be nagged into it by Bobby or Peggy etc. Hank *can* change, and ultimately, as a decent person at his core, Hank can at least respect things or people outside his comfort zone. That doesn't mean he's an enthusiastic advocate of things outside his own views, but, mostly, Hank's tolerant at some level of difference. And that's fine; people are nuanced, with many shades of character - Hank doesn't need to be perfect, just somewhat relatable - most people watching King of the Hill could at least make small talk with Hank, sharing a beer by a propane tank. Not so with these Rightwing characters, who don't change, don't show capacity for growth, don't have any purpose other than to trot out malicious, petty views about The Left/Woke Mob/whatever current buzzwords might connect with viewers. It's one thing to use mockery, insults and self-deprecating humour, but quite another if the intent behind such humour is genuinely, actively, deliberately *malicious* in its application. And that's where such rightwing 'comedy' and animation fails - it's genuinely trying to be toxic. Consequently, it fails - such shows struggle to reach any significant domestic audience, and fail completely on the international stage, whereas something like King of the Hill gets picked up and watched around the world for years. At this stage, I almost feel like saying to America's wretched Far Right over there: "How many times have we to teach you this lesson, old man..."

The thing about conservatives is when they say they don't like when TV/sports/video games/etc 'get political', they really mean 'politics they disagree with'. Look at their reactions whenever an athlete or celebrity says something left leaning, it's always "shut up and dribble" or "who cares what some out of touch celebrity thinks?", but whenever one says something right leaning, conservatives act like they're paragons of wisdom who have seen the one great truth of the world.

@@ahoythere4damn right, you’ll never hear a conservative say “Hmmm, that joke was a bit too political. I agree with what was said, but it shouldn’t be in the show/movie”. There’s a kind of bullshitting happening, and they’ll do wild mental gymnastics to prove their point.

​@@brandonsclips7741Its similar to Ron Swanson from the early Parks & Recs episodes. His character was a stereotypical libertarian and a lot of the humour comes from him clashing with progressive society. However, Ron didn't come off as hateful or unlikable, because he was never JUST the stereotype. He had other characteristics and moments that showed a more rounded, humanized character. That builds empathy in the viewer so that even when he is acting in a way they might not agree with politically, they are still emotionally invested and more likely to feel sympathy towards the characte's plight.

While I don't have the time to type out a thorough answer to you, I can boil it down to this: Because depending on how far right you go, people believe the racism doesn't exist anymore because the civil rights "ended" racism, gay people are satanic and ruining the atomic family which means less babies and are shoving their "agenda" in everything, and trans people are pdf files who want to groom children. The issue is that due to how concentrated those talking points are through media, it seeps into even casual conservative talking points. It's weird to say but by default if you think any type of person is a valid human than you're already leaning left, at least in regards socially- in this political landscape.

It's because their value systems don't assign worth to individual expression outside of a preestablished norm. Rather, it's your expression _of_ said norms, that determine your place within a conservative social hierarchy. They don't value 'being themselves' so much as they value being 'normal', and while their definition of 'normal' may often change, who they're willing to _openly decry_ as *abnormal* is entirely dependent on who's surrounding them at the time, and whether or not they feel they hold a majority of power in any given situation. Take the 'the bully', for example. A bully's purpose is to inflict as much suffering as possible, _while retaining_ their place within the social hierarchy. Whether they're called out our caught, doesn't matter, only insofar as they *aren't* held accountable. The more power they have, either through strength in numbers, influence, or other intangibles, the more they understand they can get away with. It's the same with bigots. By calling them out, and refusing to tolerate _even subtle_ implications of hatred, you're forcing them to choose between silent indignation/reflection, or losing their place in the hierarchy. Moreover, they will only sacrifice their place on one ladder if it grants them a higher place on another. It's why we saw such a steep increase in outward expressions of bigotry after they were enabled by a demagogue. America went from being outwardly 'Christian Conservative' to 'Progressive', after the legalization of gay of marriage, however those people didn't go away. They quieted down until they felt the odds were in their favor.

See, the thing about King of the Hill is that the ideology of the show really isn’t inherently conservative. While it certainly has a lot of the aesthetics of the conservative movement (meat eating, beer drinking in Texas, a general resistance to change etc.) the show itself is rarely political. The showrunner Mike Judge wasn’t setting out to create a conservative sitcom to trigger the snowflakes like Birchum, he was just setting out to make quality episodes and I think the results speak for themselves.

​@@myfriendscallmepat I'd say King of the Hill was more Center than it was hard conservative or Alt-Right. IMO, if DW would get their heads out their butts and make something more politically to the Center and subtle while making fun of the worst aspects of the Hard Left and Hard Right, they'd actually have some success I think.

That's not entirely true. Just about the only time Hank ever mentions politics is when he mentions George H Bush. He even shakes Bush's hand and it was a weak handshake and thought twice about voting for him. He's certainly traditional but not EVER overtly political.

King of the Hill is comedy about a conservative, but I wouldn't personally call it "conservative comedy." Hank is a conservative middle-aged man, but whenever he expresses his worldview, it's the character talking, not the writer. When Mr. Birchum expresses his worldview, he's clearly a mouthpiece for the writers' own views.

@@DrMechanoAgreed. I haven’t watched King of the Hill in years, but I’ve watched a lot of commentary videos about it and from what I can tell it seems pretty progressive for its time. To me, Hank Hill is similar to Archie Bunker. He’s a working class conservative stereotype and not meant to be a role model (though I would consider Hank to be a much better role model than Archie). He’s an antihero rather than a protagonist.

I agree

True

True, but American Dad was doing the opposite of this show- same super-conservative style main character, but it actually paints him as the fool, and the episodes are about him actually learning lessons and realising how his worldview is holding him back. Like, as insensitive and nuts as he still is as a character, he unlearned his homophobia like a champ over the course of a bunch of episodes, even to the point of trying to explain why homophobia doesn't make sense to a really homophobic character, and trying to take him step-by-step through the same realisations he made himself to unlearn it. It didn't work, but it clearly showed how far he's come with it himself. I genuinely love American Dad at this point. It's dumb, surreal and still has plenty of shock value stuff, but it knows it, and leans into the silliness while still being pretty damn smart at times, not to mention fully shedding the mean-spiritedness of its early seasons. It's just a good, silly time now.

King of the Hill, Hank almost never comes across as spiteful or hateful to people he disagrees with. Spiteful and Hateful comedy only works if you are going after all sides equally (Like South Park. Though I have outgrown their style of humor).

At least Archie was actually hilarious and charming 😂🤣 Mr. Birchum is just trying to be Archie but fails at it miserably

Pretty much, yeah. But Velma is almost a masterpiece compared to this.

​@@enriquesanchez9016eh id say equally bad

It's only "politics" if they disagree with it.

They don't.

I loved Fionna and Cake. Haven't watched any of the other shows. I'll have to check them out.

@@CarysCreatesThings My Adventures With Superman is great and is getting a second season VERY soon. You should really check it out.

@@CarysCreatesThings I've only watched the blue eye samurai pilot so far cuz it's out on yt, but it's really good

Blue Eye Samurai is 🔥🔥🔥 between the action, visuals and music choices, really reminds me of Kill Bill. Great villain in the first season too!

Yeah that was weird. I was like "wtf most of those are good" I think he might have just put in 'Adult animation' on Google or HBO or something and took a screenshot

Also, what's funny about feeding a dog vegan food? Plenty of dogs are on vegan diets and they are healthy. Dogs aren't carnivores

Like literally half those shows listed shouldn’t be there. Fired On Mars is one of the more unique adult comedies that stand out with its more grounded apeculative fiction premise. Royal Crackers is one of the more unhinged shows that I wouldn’t call generic and have one of the most investive character and world building out of all shows. Unicorn Warriors Eternal is a show made by Genndy Tartakovsky. Nuff said. And Digman is one of the funniest affectionate parodies to Indiana Jones, to the point where it is actually better than the recent film. I think this guy barely did much research when it cones to bad adult animation and just chose random ones. Like the only actual bad ones are Velma and Castlevania Nocturnal Blood (not its predecessor Castlevania which was actually good).

the late Bob Dole

They have failed actor Michael Knowles. Failed author MAP Walsh. And that's it

Washed up Roseanne, Danny Trejo, and Patrick Warburton (for some inexplicable reason)

@@myfriendscallmepat Patrick Warburton and Danny Trejo are apparently in it.

@@jadedheartsz Which is the most upsetting part of all of this. I like them, they should be on something better.

That’s bc Hank, while having his set views and beliefs, is fine with other people doing what works for them even if he can’t understand what they’re doing or why/how it works. In a lot of ways he’s one of the healthiest parents in animation that’s not portrayed as literally perfect and it rarely comes down to the fact he’s conservative.

@@gameinsane4718 The ironic factor for me is that Dale gribble is more representative of the modern republican type of neo con whilst Hank would be considered classic or economically liberal or as they say a RINO.

​@@Bevtone Dale hated the deep state BEFORE it was cool

That bohy ain't right

@@Bevtonenot really. Dales a standard non partisan conspirecy theorist. I couldnt see him being ok with either side of the government any day of the week

Well South Park and certain Family Guy seem to have anti-trans segments that far left liberals seem to forget about. Strong Woman definitely shows the insanity of the far left atheists.

Those shows would be considered "woke" seeing how Roger crossdresses a lot and Peggy actually befriended a drag queen once and Dale's dad is openly gay....

@@URFTBOUND4LIFE You forgot Dale is portrayed as crazy for believing in conspiracy theories. And staying with his wife even though she obviously had an affair.

@@URFTBOUND4LIFErogers is a drunk and regularly is the reason for problems in the show. He isnt meant to be a “good guy”

​@@isaac6077 Depends on the episode. He's literally just meant to be an opposite of Stan - a 'not American' refugee to the point of not even being from Earth, very non-Christian, extremely not straight or cis, a constant lawbreaker, in hiding from the CIA, etc. etc.- all of these things are direct opposites of Stan's characteristics. And yet, they're clearly friends to the point of him being genuinely considered part of the family. None of them are entirely written as the "good guy" or "bad guy", they're just characters with different dynamics. There's even a full episode acknowledging how he basically gets away with everything because of how likeable he is, so we're obviously not supposed to hate him, even when he know he can be a straight-up monster sometimes. That's just the show's dynamic- it's not trying to say 'this character bad' or 'this character good' like this lazy conservative show is doing. Because it's actually about characters being written in a fun way and putting entertainment first instead of a lazy 'I'm right you're wrong' political message like the show in this video.

I agree

Our cartoon president

Also, the problem with political humor is that it's very likely to lose all but the most ardent supporters of a promoted position. I think people can subconsciously feel they're being bullshitted to with an end goal in mind. Moderates, who aren't in 100%, just don't feel comfortable being made laugh at the expense of guys they may not even think are that dissimilar to them. Personal rule of thumb: just try and distirbute your punches more or less equally. Remember, you will find utter dumbasses on both sides.

no troll

The problem with that is the insane definitions that conservatives have of "political". To them, it's "political" to depict that gay or transgender people exist, or to depict people who aren't white experiencing problems because of their ethnicity. Have a female character in a video game who doesn't look like an AI-generated supermodel in skintight clothing? That's apparently political. Have a female character in anything who does something better than a man? That's political. This viewpoint also assumes that "preserving and defending the status quo" is not super political, which it entirely is.
