An answer by a Japanese artist Sachiko Kazama:
The comicalness of someone in state power makes me laugh. The more dictator-like they are, the more humorous their comic character becomes and the public feels charisma in them. I laugh at their comedy. However, I cannot laugh at the tragedy caused by their power.
