If it wasn't all so tragic, politics might seem like a bad joke. But how did comedy become so unfunny, so politically toxic? From his hideout in a remote mountain cabin, anonymous video collage artist and essayist The Elephant Graveyard has finally cracked the code. According to him, Joe Rogan has created a doomsday death cult that feeds the dad-shaped hole in the hearts of its followers. In this allegory, his Comedy Mothership theater in Austin is like the alien spacecraft zooming in from behind the Hale Bop comet to take the Heaven's Gate group suicide victims home, freed from their earth-suits. And it turns out tech oligarchs Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are really behind it all.
