I think the joke would make more sense if the guy picked up the newspaper, unfolded it to see the entire front page, and then put it back and never bought it, day after day. The seller would still get mad because the guy never buys it, he only looks at the front page headline.
The joke would have worked if he just went and looked at the front page but never bought the paper. No reason to have such a dumb oversight, it makes the joke worse.
If he’s only looking at the front page, why is he even buying the newspaper? Can’t he see it just by walking in front of the place?

Maybe in Soviet era Russia, it is implied that you must purchase the newspaper before you unfold it?
In Soviet Russia, the newspaper unfolds YOU.
I think it’s funnier as is personally. doesn’t make sense but it’s still funny
take it easy
For a year, the man just looks at the front page without buying the newspaper.
Why does he never die? the man asks. I bet it’s because I don’t buy the paper. If I buy the paper, then the man will die sooner.
So the man starts buying the paper.
That’s like stealing!
You wouldn’t download a newspaper!
Comedians hate this simple trick!
Not in Soviet Russia apparently.
You’re right. Let’s go home folks, the joke is over.

Well, it’s better to burn out than to fade away.
Wait, I demand a refund for the joke.
You didn’t even buy it. You just walked past.
Bro did you even unfold the joke lmao
The joke I am looking for won’t need to be
He is just veing nice to the seller and actually giving him business.
