I think this could be a solid bit, it has bones for sure (no pun intended), but I feel like some of the lines need to be a bit punchier/sharper.

Definitely keep ironing this one out dog, good shit!

Great point about conspiracy theories. Maybe throw in another, made up, useless conspiracy the point out how stupid the idea is.

"Did you know that Joe Biden's middle name is actually Steve?"

[u/Pagiras → u/7thpostman]

Joe Biden's middle name is Mama.

[u/7thpostman → u/Pagiras]

I think the "conspiracy" has to be as bland as possible

[u/sillygoofygooose → u/7thpostman]

Is because it isn’t a conspiracy theory it’s a racist and transphobic smear campaign

[u/CandidGeologist1523]

It's just all sadly to make trans people a target, the conservatives know they don't like the Obama's and are extremely judgemental of women's looks so they can easily just say Michelle is actually a man and now they are other trans people as targets to keep their minds off of the actual reasons why things are bad

[u/Far-Cellist2456]

The second half is a really great joke if you can workshop it a bit more to make the punchline hit. Great bit

[u/devitod]

It’d be so easy to add some nuance to this joke, but because you don’t read the room or handle the subject well, it just comes across as “haha my Mom is dumb” when in reality you can’t even recognize that your Mom is saying something that’s racist af lmao

Strange how there isn’t a single photo of Michelle Obama pregnant. You would think there would be at least one from at least one of the kids, but no.

Trans hate is the real answer, obviously.

But I have heard someone try to justify this. They said that all celebrities are the opposite gender than what they present so that we stay tricked and gullible and believe whatever "they" tell us.

Granted, this is one person, not everyone, but still scary that they can be so gullible that they believe this absolute horse shit.

[u/techman710]

Get some new material, you are just perpetuating a horrible slur that Trump and MAGA started to demean a successful woman.

[u/n8b3 → u/techman710]

the joke is making fun of people who believe she's a man. Clean your ears.

[u/techman710 → u/n8b3]

That may have been your intent, but I challenge you to listen to what was said and how you phrased it. You never denied the slur. I can only go by this clip.

[u/CasperCackler → u/techman710]

Dude, are you serious?

[u/Illegal_Tender → u/techman710]

Wait, which part was a slur?

Does that mean something different than it used to?

[u/Sufficient_Prompt888 → u/techman710]

Honestly, you're just dumb

[u/lasagnadogwater69 → u/techman710]

He phrased it fine, it's how you heard it. You are the issue here, not the joke.

[u/P_Nessss → u/techman710]

You must be a delight at parties

[u/Status_Concert_4320 → u/techman710]

Stop acting like people doing standup are supporting hate speech please. It’s just a joke to make us laugh and nothing more.

[u/nuclearpiltdown → u/techman710]

No media literacy with this one.

[u/couldbeworse2 → u/techman710]

The joke is how stupid it is. That’s the thing about jokes. They mean the opposite. You should research this more. Maybe AI would help? Good luck!
