/pol/ loves to obsess over the most meme worthy elements of the left like it discredits all of leftism and validates their world view. John Oliver is a mildly successful left of center comedian. Normies wouldn't care that much if he disappeared tomorrow. But /pol/ sees the [current year] meme and uses it for two years now to attack everyone on the left, not just John Oliver. Same with the two scoops shit. Most people saw that as a minor story about Trump's enormous insecurity that they forgot about in 15 minutes. /pol/ got assblasted that anyone dare imply the god emporer is insecure, and convinced themselves that Colbert & co are obsessed with the two scoops story because having two scoops of ice cream is ridiculous in any context.

Foreigners (comedians/politics) in speaking roles in america deserve little respect because they are nothing without their accent and perceived culture and easy mode 'lol this is what america does' jokes

Because there are degrees of being funny and degrees of being a liberal sycophant. Stewart is very liberal, but also very funny. Yes he scores easy points by shitting on conservatives, but he is also just genuinely a good comedian.

John Oliver is a LOT less funny, although its hard to tell since he spends more time just parroting democrat talking points instead of actually making jokes or saying anything creative.

I used to watch the Daily Show and Colbert Report a whole lot in high school and I thought this guy was funny then.

Now none of them seem funny. It's not even the content and that it's often about Trump or often anti-Conservative. It genuinely isn't funny. Sure, humor is in the eye of the beholder, but the execution is awful. They're beating a dead horse and doing it until it stops shitting money, and there's nothing funny about that.

I heard a tasteful Trump joke on the radio the other day when people were talking about that fired FBI director and how the guy thought "do you think that this thing happened because Trump finally realized that he COULD fire him like 'you mean I can actually do that?'" and it cracked me up. The execution was more nonchalant and done less of an attack and more just trying to be funny. It was also done amongst many other, unrelated jokes. That's how it should be, you know. Material needs to be kept diverse and wide. In my mind, jokes are funny when they are the least expected.

These talk show hosts aren't trying to be funny. They're being whiney little bitches who do nothing but complain and when push comes to shove, they don't do what is necessary to get their ideology the votes they need to do anything.

>>37117179
if you dont want to be colonized you are being a nationalist

>>37117238
Because of discriminatory practises and ideologies that are solely based on what the population believes is the correct and incorrect deserving of the land. As nationalism tends to eat away at the community it's trying to protect.

>>37117255
The colonialists wouldn't be any better in this scenario, and are simply acting out of their brand of nationalist ideologues.

>>37117119
Those are the same thing.

>>37117324
no one implied the colonists would be in the right though?

>>37117238
Why do white nationalist seem to focus entirely on blacks when blacks have a sub 2.0 birth rate and aren't growing at all in population? Wouldn't it be more productive for white nationalists to promote white fertility or slow down immigration?

>>37117372
The colonists would think they were in the right, though.

>>37117324
>Because of discriminatory practises and ideologies that are solely based on what the population believes is the correct and incorrect deserving of the land. As nationalism tends to eat away at the community it's trying to protect.

So the natives don't actually deserve the land that's being colonized from them. So colonization is neither good or bad?
>>37117381
>Wouldn't it be more productive for white nationalists to promote white fertility or slow down immigration?
That's most of what they do.

Sure I may be complaining, but this isn't my job, and I'm not doing it front of millions of people on a regular basis but still reserving the right to fall back on the "but I'm just a comedian!". Honestly, hold a lot of Liberal beliefs and the reason I'm upset is because after losing a huge election, liberals are showing no signs of doing anything about it beyond bitching. I feel misrepresented by these people to be completely honest.

If anything, I'm honestly butthurt to see Colbert degrading as I believe he is now. I'm willing to believe that Russia nonsense is all true and all that, but the fact of the matter is that it is not humor anymore. It's straight political commentary guised as humor. This would be great if, you know, he'd allow people with opposing ideas to come on and discuss their side, but he doesn't. It's petty mudslinging.

Sure, I'm willing to believe there is some entertainment value in telling other Liberals who are upset validation for their feelings, but it's ultimately unproductive and is a noticeable decline in quality if you aren't tuning in to hear what you want to hear.

Strawman and binary opposition.

Because they were there first, and were often the sole claims on the land throughout their history. And the point of that isn't who's more deserving, it's the fact another power is invading them and booting them out of a land they've held dominion over throughout history; possibly with fatal results. And forcing themselves over a population that doesn't consent or give permission to do so.

>>37117433

Not at all; also strawman. Nationalism is the ideologue that a nation belongs solely to one group, usually a race. And is more close to notions like white supremacy than a populace being invaded by another nation or power. And has a history of steeping itself in discrimination and hate crimes, sometimes genocidal habits, in order to fight off what they feel is a threat to their nationality.

This is a good post. The Daily Show 5+ years ago was often pretty funny and sometimes it would be hilarious. Nowdays these shows have lost their magic. It's like they're so full of themselves they just expect people to laugh at anything they throw out there. Even John Stewart isn't very funny anymore - and mostly because he started to take himself too seriously. They had a 'reunion' type thing a week or two back and they were all just going on about how amazing they are and how The Daily Show and its spinoffs are "better than real journalism", which is such utter bullshit - but I think they actually believe this, and this is part of the reason they're too full of themselves to do anything funny anymore.

I'm not really political so I don't get offended over Trump being attacked, but several times I've seen Stephen Colbert make jokes that seemed like nothing more than petty insults over someone's physical appearance (he wasn't talking about Trump, just random people), and even if you agreed with him politically... nothing he says is really funny.

Oh and I hate how youtube has now merged with MSM to the point that these daily show spinoff clips are regularly on the front page.

I honestly can't understand this type of humor OP. It seems like he's really grasping at straws here, that's why I don't like him, it's because the actual comedic content is so scarce. Don't really like Stewart or Colbert either but I haven't seen any of their stuff.

Then again I probably wouldn't even know about current year man if it wasn't for his politics. Most late night normie "comedians" are really shitty, so it's not so much current year man who isn't funny, it's just normie comedians in general.

And then, it's not even normie comedy that's bad. It's normie culture in general. Their comedians are bland and don't provoke any thought, their movies are watered down copies of whatever book preceded them, their literature is simple. Everything the normie consumes is watered down non-thought-provoking gruel meant to appeal to the masses.

TLDR Current year man did nothing wrong, normies just have shit taste

Because like it or not, these comedians hold a large influence on public perception and are generally advocating a method of communication that is inefficient and ultimately damaging to both sides of the issue.

It's basically how you are now discussing at a low level of discourse. You refuse to actually have a discussion without falling back on insults and simplifications while completely ignoring a vast of what has been said. It's no wonder you defend them because you seem to be so far entrenched in the bullshit yourself.

Also at hand is the idea that their claim towards being a "comedian" is not only an insult to comedy, but a bullshit defense used when anyone cares to have any actual discussion. If that fails, you pretend that it's a non issue. It's cowardly and pathetic.

That the liberals shot themselves in the foot by being pompous, shit slinging pricks unable to hold a decent conversation. That the conservatives are showing so many signs of weakness that they lost their party to Trump and subsequently have completely destroyed its image. That Trump is the natural result of our culture's obsession with social media and the entertainment industry.

You reap as you sow. I can go on and tell you how to improve the situation. How to sit down and talk. Communicate. Debate. Understand. Improve. But you won't. You'll continue to add fuel to the fire and keep me entertained instead by never learning your lesson.

His show is well produced and his research team does a good job of getting the facts out. Sadly this is painful for anyone who gets their ideology pounded on the show, particularly because people of different political bent will take the content and use it as ammo against you. Combine that with the fact that he's actually funny and became a massive surprise success and there you have it. Haters come out of the woodwork like slaters.

Tall poppy syndrome, opposed political views, and fear. That would mainly be it.

>people shitposting on 4chan is why people disagree with you!
Again, do you think I care? 4chan is not a place for serious intellectal debate. The culture revolves around being edgy and banter. There aren't even IDs to keep track of people during a debate. You don't know if I'm the same person you've been arguing with or if he left and I took over. I'm simply yelling you that a show that a few hundred thousand people watch out of 320,000,000 Americans watch is not something to get this triggered about.

>>37119785
>implying 4chan isn't a microcosm for the personalities behind the masks

4chan is not a place for serious intellectual debate because "serious intellectual debate" doesn't exist in the first place. You think Newton ever tried to sit down and talk to Leibniz and work out their misunderstanding? Fuck that. You and I bloodly well know humans simply aren't capable of detaching themselves from being dumb apes and slinging shit, and our political process symbolizes this. And if you know anything about science and the road it's going down, you'd know it's no different anywhere else.

Sure, you can go on about being "triggered" or whatever nonsense you have to go on about. It in itself is a great example of how awful humans are at communicating anything.

The great part is at the end of it all, I'm not only going to be proven right, but I'll get to watch this entire world go up in flames without having to lift a finger.

Because right-wing humor gets censored/banned/blacklisted.

Admit it. /pol/ is fucking hilarious.

It's mostly because he's such a smug little beady eyed rat. I've seen a couple of his segments that were more or less apolitical and okay, but his jokes tend to just be throwing out lazy "absurd" similes ("drumph being president is like a hamster flying an airplane! Wtf is a hamster doing flying an airplane?!?!") or him basically just playing out of context clips or strawmanning so he can just call them retards and he/we all laugh at how superior he/we are.

Many people are completely unaware that the society welive in today has been formed by the entertainment industry and that entertainment industry has been silencing dissent for decades.

It's more obvious today because of social media and some of these people gain fans before going professional. Look at what happened to Sam Hyde.

Political correctness is a tool used to shut down contrary opinions. If most people believe a belief is so offensive and dangerous that it should be disregarded then they'll police themselves and their social group. BlackLivesMatter is a conspiracy theory but nobody will call it for what it is and people aren't condemned for believing it because it's hasn't been condemned by popular media as crazy and idiotic, in fact, most media furthers the bullshit propaganda because it benefits those with progressive beliefs.

Also his jokes got old. It's the same shit over and over again. He's obviously just another shill pretending to be a comedian so he can lure in ADHD millenials with jokes and feed them propaganda and pull the "comedian card" to avoid responsibility for being a "thought leader" for many leftists.

Why do libs abuse the word "facts" so much? Giving a one-sided spiel is not stating the facts. It's stating misleading half truths and if not that then outright lying. His team showed us in the Drumpf episode that it doesn't even know basic accounting 101. Hell his mentor John Stewart didn't even know the difference between a debt and a deficit. Yet these glorified teleprompter readers are treated like prophets by many leftists. Whenever they get called out they play the "I'm just a comedian!" card even though they just keep repeating the same jokes over and over again with different political subjects every episode. It's propaganda. John Stewart even admitted that publicly after years of "I'm just a comedian!"

Knowing the capital of Canada doesn't mean you have well-rounded view of politics. John Oliver and The Daily Show cover a lot of things but they lack substance. Not that Fox News is better.

These go into far more variables and are more in-depth:

She sort of wasn't, though. She was the wrong candidate at the wrong time considering the inertia of the pendulum swing at the time, especially with that whole email scandal, but she's a solid politician with tons of experience.

>not because the Democrats are inherently bad at getting minorites to vote for them

I disagree. I am completely dissatisfied with the entire party and its new approach to get new voters. The entire party has adopted this smug, passive-aggressiveness that is accomplishing nothing but polarizing the country more. The entire election strategy was "attack Trump" and it failed horribly. This is coming from a Liberal too.

>>37135604
The fact that you think Hillary is a solid politician discredits everything else you said. She's a neocon with a (D) next to her name. She pushed to have Gadaffi overthrown because she thought it would have a positive outcome and she could brag about that on the campaign trail. She ignored the FBI after the DNC hack and had a private firm investigate to try and stop the FBI from seeing the emails. She doesn't have good judgement.
