    yes this is what i wonder.I am not an american but i see some comedian shows
    And suprisingly all of them like saying the same thing about social issues.For instance,
    they all makes fun of people who against gay marriage and making some bad jokes
    about jews(irony kind of jokes which states that people hate them without any reason).
    İs it because they are so smart than a avarage person and solved this issues in their mind
    trying to educate people or anything else.educate me pls.

    I don't think they are told what to say, but most comedians repeat each other because stand-up comedy can not be copyrighted. So if one guys joke is successful someone else is most likely gonna take it and use it in their act.

    Most of them are liberal. Just like anybody in that echelon of society. Most actors and musicians are the same way.

    very well said. people with those views tend to gravitate towards certain "professions" that give them a pedestal to preach their values (or lack thereof). i tend to have a high disregard for most of hollywood's filth.

    I believe that all our politicians have people that write their speeches.

    Politicians definitely have people who write their speeches.

    Comedians write all of their own jokes.

    I was Implying that our politicians might as well be comedians because you can’t take most of them seriously.

    Comedians are products of culture. If culture is all about being pro gay and jew jokes then of course they will go for that. Just watch how the jokes shift over the years.
