People want to laugh all the time

I propose to raise a revolution against the lie that the majority has the monopoly of the truth

Henrik Ibsen

“We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office.”

– Aesop

They say that this world appeared thanks to the explosion. In a few billion years, this world will disappear thanks to laughter. The laughter of all humankind will be so strong that the planet will not stand it and will be flooded with nuclear laughter.

Moreover, humanity will laugh heartily five minutes before the launch of ballistic missiles when the clown rulers jokingly press the button in the last reprise, which can still make people laugh. People will have no more reason to laugh because they will be under the impression of the next planetary news as stoned with marijuana. Nothing will cling thе humanity anymore: neither grief, nor suffering, nor the troubles of people, nor even pornography as a manifestation of the very interesting instincts. Just laughter. And only laughter. As a forerunner of such a scenario, the appearance of clown presidents all over the world.

Someone says: clowns are given to people by world mafiosi. It benefits them that nations laugh during the pandemic. In fact, it is. But haven’t people wanted to see a funny freak for all the past ages? It also distracted them from their worries and mental problems. It’s better to see the freak and calm yourself down. Not everything is supposedly so bad. O.K. Here he is, a freak, making me laugh; he’s funny, pathetic, and wants to make me laugh. And it’s funny to me, I feel good. Where did all these political puppets come from now? They even declare they are ready to press the nuclear button. Why are they saying this? To make you laugh? No. Bye, to like. Politicians and diplomats of the past centuries are all boring and speak an incomprehensible professional language. And modern politics speak like real clowns. They want to please you and me. Let’s elect such politicians as presidents! It will be funny and pleasant for us.

I did not draw the appearance of clowns as a conspiracy of world elites who need clowns as presidents. I drew that clowns are the evolutionary need of the crowd of all time and people to laugh and forget their problems by observing a freak. Yes, since the time of Rome, rulers have used spectacles to distract the crowd from economic problems and political crises. But what kind of crisis are we talking about with the triumph of democracy? No, there is no crisis. There is a need for people for drugs. And laughter is a very good drug. Presidents clowns want to please the crowd, its passions, so they try. What can there be anything else under a democracy?
