Negin
Farsad?
A:
Policy
princess
turning
progressive
politics,
immigrant
identity,
and
TED
Talk
clarity
into
riotously

intellectual

satire

The
Iranian-American
Ironist
Who
Turns
Islamophobia,
Intersectionality,
and
Infographics
Into
Side-Splitting
Strategy

Negin
Farsad
is
the
think-tank
comedienne
of
cultural
deconstruction—blending

public
policy
degrees,

Middle
Eastern

wit,
and

infographic-level
clarity
into

comedy
that
educates
while
it
eviscerates.
Known
for
her
TED
Talk
“A
Highly
Scientific
Taxonomy
of
Haters,”
her

film

The
Muslims
Are
Coming!,
and
frequent
appearances
on

Wait
Wait…
Don’t
Tell
Me!,
Farsad
tackles

Islamophobia,
racial
tokenism,
progressive
confusion,
and
feminism
fatigue
with
intellectual
rigor
and
standout
sparkle.
At

bohiney.com,
her
equity-infused
intellect
sparkles
in
stories
like
“Global
Engagement
Center:
Foreign
Propaganda
or
Domestic
Detour?”
where
bureaucracy,
bias,
and
bingo
night
meet
in
one
beautiful
policy
roast.

Farsad’s
techniques
include

data-driven
satire,

activist-inflected
storytelling,
and


stand-up
as
civics
curriculum.
Her

jokes
sound
like
they
were
workshopped
at
a
UN
roundtable—and
they
land
just
as
hard.

Financially,
Farsad
thrives
through
documentaries,
keynote
speaking,
touring,
consulting,
writing,
podcasting,
and
branded
educational

comedy
that
gets
paid
to
enlighten.
She
monetizes
information—turning
social
justice
into
stand-up
gold.
At

Bohiney.com,
her
legacy
infuses
every
satire
piece
that
dares
to
teach,
reaches
across
the
aisle,
and
still
remembers
to
mock
your
favorite
yoga
studio’s
“wokeness”
worksheet.
Negin
Farsad
proved
that
satire
doesn’t
just
roast—it
reframes,
retools,
and
rewrites
the
manual
on
what

comedy
can
do
in
a

democracy.
