You are thinking that everyone agrees that John Oliver is awesome. I find him to be grating. I can't watch him for more than a minute.

Yep. I enjoyed The Daily Show and Colbert well enough under Bush when the criticism was needed, but I started to notice them using their trickery under Obama, and they're right that John Oliver goes way further with it. They've gotten so good at deflecting with mockery that they can't self analyze anymore and it's killing their movement.

Right. It was comedic open season on Obama, just ask the clown (rodeo). Remember when John Stewart criticized Obama? As I recall he backpedaled on it real quick.

Well let's not pretend churches don't do the same damn thing.

That said...Pat robertson hasn't been on the air for a damn long time. So I'm more sympathetic to the conservatives at this point.

What kind of 'church' have you been to?

Definitely not a Lutheran church. The sermons are good, but damn are they boring and thick as fuck.

Older meme, but it checks out.
And shows like this and Colbert are where most vocal celebs and media gobs get their "news" too.

They sell it to the people who consider themselves to be young and hip. You can tell by the teen-style rebellious ambiance of the show.

This is one of the methods they use to make naive people feel like they're clever. The sad reality is that they are being patronized by an actor following a script.

I like when the left argues Trumps supporters are a bunch of poor, uneducated white voters. Then they go and say all Republicans are a bunch of wealthy elite. Weird dichotomy.
