Taking on the biggest issues in politics was not on Lee Camp’s mind when he first got into comedy. The American comedian — now known for his incisive political commentary and humor — first started writing jokes when he was just 12 and began performing at 18, focusing first on “standard observational comedy” that was aimed more at lifting people’s spirits than opening people’s minds.From there we learn about the details of the increasing political nature of his comedy (he has been compared to George Carlin of fairly recent decades), and we learn about a totally unredacted, uncensored one-hour show he has done to promote his political comedy that you can access for a small charge.
However, as Camp continued to perform, he became more politically aware and wanted his comedy to cover the “darker issues.”
in the time remaining, to help us understand how the man-made system of capitalism will lead to the extinction of our human species, and so many others.
