i really think the reason bluesky generally isn't funny is that there's this agreement not to say anything that doesn't push the envelope. sometimes you need to take a risk to be interesting. if a joke doesn't catch you off guard a little bit what are you laughing at?

There's a chunk of contemporary media criticism that does read like "to avoid fascism, we should return to the mass media systems of the 20th C, which famously avoided fascism except between the years 1922-1975".
