Political satirists have plenty of material to draw from these days and Bassem Youssef makes us laugh at our absurdity while serving us another view.
Bassem Youssef was a surgeon in the Middle East who started a comedy that did well there until his government, showing no sense of humor, shut him down. He came to The U.S. after the Arab Spring and started his own show here called, Democracy Handbook with Bassem Youssef
At the peak of his show, you had more viewers that Donald Trump has followers.
If you like to laugh about some serious topics this is the thinking person comedy. If you are a snowflake and find any of this offensive you should know better than to read a post by a guy named Luzcypher. You're a snowflake. What were you thinking?
I just watched the whole show and knew some of you would enjoy this. When you have time have a look at these videos and share what you think about the issues he talks about in the comments below.
