Comedy is experiencing a resurgence, characterized by a new sense of freedom, though still constrained by government oversight. Jokes are deemed valid if they align with political narratives, particularly those reinforced by Donald Trump. The notion of censorship is redefined as the absence of laughter at one's jokes, while freedom is tongue-in-cheek equated to show cancellations resulting from financial mismanagement. The commentary reflects on controversies involving comedians and the shifting standards regarding what constitutes acceptable comedy, blurring lines between humor and political expression.
