Abstract: This Master's Thesis is presented as an attempt to delve into the limits of humor in today's society. The path that is proposed for it is done by the hand of the concepts/phenomena of catharsis and countercatharsis. Catharsis is defined as a collective purification, based on the incongruity of humor, the immersion in a shared world and the use of irony, sarcasm and cynicism that come together especially in satire. Satire is introduced as a humorous genre that relies on stereotypes and costumbrismo to offer a critical reading of reality. In contrast, counter-catharsis is presented as a tool of discursive hegemony, with its own catalysts, among them nostalgia, folklorization and the rise of reactionarism. Its role in contemporary censorship, the culture of cancellation and self-censorship is examined, highlighting the apparatuses and means of dissemination of hegemony. The study offers a practical analysis of the program "Euskalduna naiz, eta zu? Espainia", justifying the sample and providing a context of political satire in the Basque Country. ACD and CPL are applied to analyze the results of catharsis in the program and counter-catharsis in the report on the chapter presented by Covite -Colectivo de Víctimas del Terrorismo-, detailing the findings in summary graphs.
