Comedy does not make us better.
Comedy can be positive. It can also be negative, just like anything else.
Our nation would be better off if Woody Allen and Robin Williams had lived quiet lives of another profession.
I say this despite their often humorous and enjoyable entertainment.
The implication is that it’s good comedy. Allen at his best was great. How has his work made things worse? Please share. Or Williams for that matter...
Count me as one of those who don’t see ‘great’ and ‘woody allen’ together. Chalk it up to cultural differences.
As for comedy itself, at least we are and we still can make fun of ourselves (to a lesser and lesser degree it seems).
We are not under sharia laws yet.
