I realized then that I don't want to associate with either side of politics as it creates a 'us vs them' mentality that f***ing makes Americans just hate each other rather than actually discuss politics in any type of a healthy manner.

Too bad for you, that shit is everywhere now, from the TV shows you watch to type of food you eat, you absolutely have to pick a side or be seen as an enemy to both, that's not going ot bold well for you when the civil war comes and it's time to take up arms.

Meh, there's only one side that has arms, significant numbers anyway. The other side keeps saying you must be inbred, stupid and bloodthirsty to personally own a gun. What are they going to do, throw rocks?

You mean the side that's shooting at cops, destroying towns and having riots nearly every week? That side? Yeah, you call them hypocrites, so remember that also means they're more violent than what you think, It'd be a very bloody clash that kills millions, not a one sided stomp like you think. It'll be very cruel, very bloody and very very violent and it's going to happen soon, possibly once Trumpcare gets passed one day.

Oh, it would be bloody all right. The military would get involved and anarchists roaming the streets will not have a good time. You know all those quiet conservatives, who sit at home cleaning their guns and are pissed off but never protest? Imagine what they're going to do if Antifa and their buddies start doing more than destroying college property. Luckily, I doubt anything will get out of control during these four years, so there will not be a need for bloodshed.

That's not ironic. One television personality "influencing" an election with "hey I think you should vote for that guy" is totally different than a foreign intelligence service going "whoops, somebody hacked into all your private files and dumped it on the internet!"


What he did was straight up illegal, and now he's trashing on Donald Trump Jr for doing something that's of questionable legality. It's at the very least hypocritical of him.

Late night shows have started slowly turning me off since about 2013 or so. From like 2002 to 2012 I used to love sitting down for some Daily Show (and later Colbert Report) as it was funny and occasionally insightful. Yeah there was a slight liberal bias that grew in time but I didn't care as it was pointing out genuinely silly behavior on both sides of the political spectrum.

Then somewhere towards the end of 2012 I recall Jon Stewart basically giving the first memorable what I would call his "Shame on America" speeches. It might have happened before but it really stood out to me that the show was second to pushing whatever his personal politics are. Yeah I kept watching him on/off but it became way too easy to notice the "Hey we're on the right side of history" circle jerk that took up most of the air time.

When Stewart finally retired I didn't feel much in the way of caring, he has stopped being an entertainer to me and just a sort of liberal mouth piece that once in awhile made a joke. At least with Colbert his show had a lot of off the wall humor that was less political focused and more general parody of the talking head focused show.

Yeah, because I'm a senior in college, living with my parents to save money and they watch Colbert every night. Also the Daily Show, Samantha B, Jim Jeffries etc

They watch every liberal circle jerk show.

You would prefer conservative circle jerk shows on Fox?

Trevor Noah has to talk about Trump. The Daily Show and Comedy Central is all about bashing Trump and that's the only reason why people tune in.

I think that's why Jim Jeffries show is as bad as it is, I think they told him it has to be an dedicated Anti-Trump show.



But Colbert inherited a generic talk show and can talk about whatever he wants, yet he still copies the daily show beat for beat, only making it more whinier.

Trevor Noah doesn't whine like Colbert does


This. Noah, Oliver, Bee, etc are all terrible, but their shows are liberal safe spaces where confused and scared college kids can have someone tell them what to think. Same goes for the conservative versions of this crap like hannity or (formerly) oreily or crowder.

Colbert does a late night show now. He doesn't have to be a partisan hack who retreads the same garbage jokes the other 5 daily show clones (and the daily show) use. It's pretty disappointing since Colbert can actually be funny if he tries.

Because once the gun play and killing starts they'll have no choice but to join a side or die. Those people are apathetic right now so it doesn't matter what they think, they arent in control, the loyalists to their parties are, they control where America goes from here and right now it's looking like the rivers will be littered with corpses and the city pipes overflowing with blood.

I mean there are people that still think the revolutionary war had the full backing of all the colonists and people when in reality about two-thirds of the people didn't support either side of the war.

Colbert is a smug asshole, who totally wilted when he had Trump on the show. He's the typical self righteous nerd who talks a good game, but when the bully shows up he just melts.

He had him on his very first week, if I remember correctly, back when Trump was still believed to be a joke candidate. Way before they started talking about him for the whole show. Now, they found their angle and how to get those sweet sweet ratings.

Don't you remember when Colbert was taking the role seriously and trying to put together a traditional late night talk show and no one was watching??? Trump pretty much saved his career. Also he would be so much better if he was still playing his character on the Colbert report. If it was the late show with that Colbert I would watch it.

I don't really like Noah because he isn't American so when he pokes fun it is out of touch and doesn't have the same passion that Jon Stewart (an American) offered

Also Colbert kinda had to go this route because Jimmy Fallon has the traditional show sewed up

Any chance we could resume that dialog? You made a c*** of yourself but you made good points in the process and I don't care to be misjudged, but maybe I didn't give you a fair opportunity to give me a fair chance.


I don't mind, but I don't really know what you're asking me exactly.


Well it seems like you had me completely mistaken for some stereotype that I would question even exists. You were acting like I was some kind of hillary supporter and you used the word entitled and never explained how you arrived at that when I initially asked. You said you can't stand trump's theatrical bullshit but that "people like me" complain about trump for all the wrong reasons, which is a bit baffling because the bullshit and theatrics are my primary complaint about him, so I'm not even sure what complaints you were suggesting that I allegedly have. I'm just curious about what sort of inane caricature you've painted of me in your head from just the simple fact that I don't like mindless generic buzzwords.

Oh f*** me! Hey man! :D

You're that f***ing guy who called me entitled and accused me of something with a "wiafu" a week or so ago and then didn't respond when I asked what that was... and in fact didn't respond to anything I said after you spoke about hating trump for his theatrics and bulls*** but said people who hate him do so for the wrong reasons, which I then said those are exactly the reasons why I hate him (I think you mistook me for a hillary supporter even though all I did was post disdain toward generic cliche s***post buzzwords like cuck necause I'm motherf***ing sick of seeing it). I'm getting the feeling you didn't read my reply to you which is bulls*** because you are hating on both extreme sides right now and you were being an a****** to me even though I agree with you and hate on both extreme ends myself.

Any chance we could resume that dialog? You made a c*** of yourself but you made good points in the process and I don't care to be misjudged, but maybe I didn't give you a fair opportunity to give me a fair chance.

nothing wrong with a waifu my man

It must've hit too close to home.

nothing wrong with a waifu my man


me: what is wifu?
lennon: he meant waifu
me: what is waifu?
lennon: let it go
you: nothing wrong with it

how many times am I going to have to fucking ask what this word means before I actually get an answer? >_>
