I think humor has an advantage of not needing to be correct. A joke can be blatantly wrong, but with that freedom it can point out a kernel of truth that would otherwise be rejected.
Every system of reasoning has intrinsic blindspots, while internally seeming consistent and all-knowing. Corrupting fallacies sneak in, each only off by a little bit, but self-consistent.
Attempting to directly argue any one conclusion looks wrong, as it disagrees with all the surrounding/supporting points. Only by completely shrugging off that strict logical-progression paradigm can the absurd conclusions be called out.
