Why Did Comedy Die?

This is, bluntly, rubbish. The big sea-change is that mid-budget movies just aren’t made for cinemas anymore. They belong to streaming services and TV series now. Dating Amber, Do Revenge, Murder Mystery, Palm Springs, The Map of Tiny Perfect Things, The Half of It, Always Be My Maybe, Tall Girl (1), Don’t Look Up, Isn’t It Romantic, Only Murders In The Building, Love Life… the list goes on and on.

If you’re not enjoying these, the problem isn’t that they don’t make great comedy or romance anymore, it’s that you got old.

All of that is feminized nonsense. Comedy is being killed by gender politics.

How do you define "feminized nonsense" and "gender politics"?

“I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to you!”
