Denouncing the Cuban regime in a language that’s been dead for centuries...

Duh.

The bit about the guy in the giant hat who talks to cloud people is funny because it's perfectly accurate. The dead language reference is not accurate, therefore less funny.

Ah, so the joke is too obvious and unfunny for you, because it's not accurate? Since when did satire require total accuracy?

We disagree, I guess.

well, they stretched the gag a little, but I still found it funny. A guy in a funny hat who talks to imaginary friends in a dead language accuses something else of not corresponding to reality?

Pretty huge guffaws.

It's almost as funny that people take advice on sex from these people. Srsly.
