Usually comedy only tangentially touches on what’s important, or it risks turning into lectures.
Lectures can be fine. People pay for them sometimes. When comedy becomes lectures, and keeps its old “comedy” sign out front, people, at minimum, comment on the change with disappointment.
Maybe the important thing is more important than the comedy. It’s still a loss of comedy and an unwillingness to acknowledge the fact.
And generally, the fewer nazis and fascists you have, the more comedy exists.

Quite a knot.
