A jester isn't known for hiding the kings propaganda inside his ramblings, modern day 'entertainers' are disgusting agents who serve to brainwash and mislead the population at large.

Probably because jesters were actually entertaining. Clownworld doublespeak!

You might want to research jesters. They were actually highly regarded advisors to the king and could speak plainly without fear of repercussions.

A "jest" is a harmless prank, harmless joke, harmless ruse. There is nothing harmless about modern entertainment.

They are neither entertaining or amusing. I've gone back to reading books.
