From "Humor Neutral: Post-Modernism, the Prisoner and the Construct of Culture":
As one should be able to plainly see by now, humor is, in essence, a tool used against progress in the guise of personal liberty. A truly just society would have no need for humor: as such, humor manifests itself in injustice...
In this context, Humor Neutrality is a defense against the oppression of personal liberty. A just society would require that those who use humor be held accountable for their injustice: as such, humor cannot be seen as an example of Free Speech, but rather the use of Speech as oppression...
You will find a culture's weakness by what it perceives to be funny: thus, to make a culture more just humor must be removed from the table of acceptable interaction...
I am Laslo.
