Comedian Pokes Fun At “Conservative Logic” By “Defending” 30 Of The Most Evil Villains
Comedy is one of those few things that seems like it will never hit the bottom of the barrel. As long as the world continues to spin, people will continue to come up with ways to keep everyone entertained through laughter.
Take Greg Larsen, for instance. The award-winning actor, writer, director, and comedian went to Twitter asking people to share names of those who are universally agreed to be evil. You know, people like genocidal dictators, serial killers, and just plain baddies, whether real or fictional.
This way, he challenged himself to defend them and their actions using “conservative logic.” And the internet delivered, bringing in nearly 80,000 likes and over 18,000 retweets, suggesting some of the seemingly most undefendable people (and non-humans) in history.

Bored Panda invites you to read through some of Greg’s best attempts at defending these baddies to the best of his “conservative” ability. And while you’re down there, why not vote and comment on the ones you enjoyed the most!

This post may include affiliate links.
Greg Larsen is an award-winning actor, writer, director, comedian and podcaster from Melbourne, Australia. He’s best known for his work in The Grub Podcast, At Home Alone Together, Get Krack!n, and Tonightly with Tom Ballard.
Back in August of 2020, Greg went to Twitter with a bit of a wild idea—he asked his followers to name the absolute most evil people on the planet—people like genocidal dictators, serial killers, and the like.
RELATED:
The internet was keen to respond immediately after this tweet went live. Now, many were posting actual historical figures, like Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler, and Kim Jong Un, but others spiced it up, suggesting more than just politicians and infamous people in history.
The list quickly grew with the likes of Joffrey Baratheon from Game of Thrones, Immortan Joe from Mad Max, Bowser from the Mario universe, The Borg from Star Trek, and many more.

HELPING THE BRITISH ECONOMY- LMAO WHY IS THIS SOMETHING THEY WOULD ACTUALLY SAY
Yet others took a more comic approach and suggested defending the likes of Mr. Burns from The Simpsons, Wile E. Coyote from Road Runner, and Ursula from The Little Mermaid. There was even one person who put up a picture of Vegemite iSnack 2.0 and asked to defend the marketing guy who invented it.

This perfectly illustrates the insane hurdles Conservative brains jump through to land at such mind-bogglingly wrong conclusions. Hats off to this man for making it so convincing that the Bored Panda commenters forgot what satire is & think he's being serious.

And note also that without A.Hitler, Winston Churchill would have been remembered only for the disaster of the Dardanelles... And as a French humorist said once, De Gaulle owes everything to him also.

You can go f*ck yourself, some things are never funny at all. My great aunt died in one of those camps.

I've said it before & I’ll say it again: Nothing is beyond being joked about, so long as it is handled correctly. This was handled exceptionally well. It's satire being utilized to draw attention to the dangerous people around us in 2021. He is not poking fun at victims or marginalized groups, he's mocking Nazis & conservatives for being hateful & ignorant. Your great aunt is not the butt of the joke, the ignorance of conservatives & Nazis is. Even if you don't find it particularly humorous, you should at least support what he's doing. He isn't trying to make light-hearted quips. He's making dark jokes in order to illustrate how flawed & downright dangerous conservative logic is.

It's not Karen logic is ahole logic. Left and right both claim 'Karens' as the opposite of them... Karens are sjw antifas to the right and racist white privilege bigots to the left. That's why the term is just stupid

He is spot on with the endless repetitions of "arguments" that conservatives use. "Show me the evidence." is one of their biggest favorites. But when you show them the evidence their inevitable reply is :" Yeah, fake news from lame stream media. Stay blind."

Lemme take a stab at this. "This is simple- the majority rules. 99% of Hallownest's population supports her, but of course the leftists cry 'brainwashing' or 'infection' the second things don't go their way. Not to mention they don't have a better alternative- what, are they gonna prop their dead king up to replace her? It's just stupid."

Can we agree that by adding in or leaving out context on purpose, things can be skewed to manipulate the audience. If you want these things to not exist, start demanding that people in arguments/debates give all information, not just whatever suits their side of the story. If they don't do so, instantly agree with the other side. It's simple, people either want the unbiased truth to prevail, or to win for their own benefit only. Learn to spot the difference.

It was fun until he stopped defending them and started blaiming lefts for everything. (I know he is kidding, but it would be more fun if he would just defend the villains instead of saying that the only reason they are bad is because of the lefties.)
Aria Whitaker 3 years ago (edited)
But he was using the arguments and logic that American Conservatives display....and the fact is that they DO say that the reason they are "bad" is because they are "leftists"...with NO other qualifying criteria. That is the point. They make no good points other than "Lefty=Bad". This was not supposed to be an ACTUAL defense of the villians...it was supposed to be a defense USING CONSERVATIVE LOGIC....and that IS the defense that they use 9 times out of 10.

You're right, it is sensible to question sources. However, conservatives don't wait for the actual evidence to come out. They say "But what if the Roadrunner was being bad & Wile was acting in self defense!" & act as if that "what if" is the truth. They pretend to be questioning sources, but it's just an excuse to say "I'm right, you're wrong."
