That is certainly debatable. Second, you assume he has some credible substance in his method that could stir up thinking. That depends on your perception of what thinking includes. Finally, you seem to suggest that you are on top of the heap and can see elements of behavior that is beyond our comprehension. Try again, Malik, this one fell flatter than a taco.

Comedians wisecrack. Back in mediæval times, a comedian (motley fool) served as a legislative safety valve in a kingdom, a way that suggestions dangerous for others to make could be presented to the king. Modern comedians help moderate the effect of new ideas, and still help stop violent dissent in our nation. If a comedian is a nasty so-and-so, no-one considers it seriously but it does stir up thinking.
