There are two main reasons you should never, ever allow the State to dictate what jokes you can and can’t tell: (1) it’s a sure sign of authoritarianism, (2) propagandists are terrible comedians.

One of my friends named his black and white Old English Bulldog Mapplethorpe. One of the best dogs named for one of the coolest photographers.
