The Daily Show managed to use the Taliban raping and murdering innocent Afghans to score a cheap shot against Texas

It’s nice that, if nothing else, “The Daily Show” can find humor in the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan and murder of Afghan citizens:

Get it? Because Critical Race Theory. Because Texas. Wocka-wocka!

Imagine writing this and thinking, “Aren’t I clever! Now I’m going to tweet it!” https://t.co/w1VCg3E7uF

You can’t learn that kind of comedy, folks. You’ve gotta be born with it.

Yeah. Jokes are cool right now. Maybe the Afghan women being kicked out of college and employment will find solace in your humor.

And the rapes. Don’t forget about the rapes.

Too soon? Yep. Think of what is happening to the women and girls.

It's a nightmare. I can't stop thinking about them.

Maybe next time, “The Daily Show” can wait until the rapes and murders level off a bit before using those atrocities to take cheap shots.

In the meantime:
