Conservative humor requires a more nuanced approach than liberal humor. Being humorous from a conservative point of view is more difficult because taking a liberal point of view often earns an automatic laugh from some people, without having to be particularly witty or clever. To get more laughs, a person may need to employ irony and sarcasm to make fun of their own side, even if it means making fun of their own beliefs. This type of humor requires more thought and creativity, which can make it more challenging to come up with.
