(77,024 posts)"inlfluencing moderates/conservatives" is about politics, not comedy. He's targeting comedians who say "F (KRASNOV)" only. Yes, most of us are likeminded with KIMMEL/COLBERT, but they also uplift us with how well they express it and with such truth. Conan has always been 95% pure comedy and less than 5% political. That's fine for him. And as I've said quite enough times here, I like him, I watch him for my break from politics not for the many silly tangents apart from his main comedy.
But my *MILD* disappointment here has been distorted to be accusations of me calling him a supporter of KRASNOV. So then I'm upgrading my *mildness* to the gravity of criticism that if Conan is dedicated to avoiding commitment to political discourse such as not being too critical of KRASNOV, fine, but then he has no business targeting others who have their own commitments.
Who knows which comedians who don't "tell jokes" you are talking about. We all have our tastes, and I and many others find KIMMEL/COLBERT/MEYERS to be extremely funny, intelligent, and courageous, in case you're talking about them.
I am always surprised and mystified when my less-erratic posts that I put effort and time on and think are inoffensive and worthy of wide community support seem to be magnets for hostility.
