Want to be truly heartbroken? The exact same thing that happened to George Floyd happened to another black man back when Jon Stewart ran the Daily Show. Only no one gave a shit beyond the punchline.

Why? Everyone wants to praise Jon Stewart, but heres the exact same situation as Floyd and how much awareness did Stewart manage to raise? The fact is Stewart was too good at being the comedian and was too good at easing white tension. America didnt need a laugh. They needed to be angry.

Interesting point. Stewart bridged the gap between sides better than most social commentators. Its always good to meet in the middle. Maybe some anger is needed, i dont think its going to end the way some people think though.

Jon Stewart is probably depressed as all hell after what happened to 9/11 first res ponders and how the government on federal and local levels just completely fucked them all over, even now they're being fucked over as the public just quickly forgets he probably realizes how pointless this all is, talk all you want , no public will forget and the scum who keep doing it will keep doing it. Colbert and Oliver will learn that lesson too once they finally end their shows, Noah will probably learn it,too if he hasn't already, he's started sounding very cynical during those moments he talks to audience without trying to be funny.

This is a great video but is TC trying to claim the Eric Garner case wasn't huge news?

Jon Stewart isnt perfect and has done some dumb shortsighted things like that sanity march, but blaming his comedy show on Comedy Central where he told jokes for not being pure blood and thunder seems like a pretty unreasonable take

I pray god will curse the writer, as the writer has cursed the world with this beautiful, stupendous creation, terrible in its simplicity, irresistible in truth
