Comments by "" (@thehumanity0) on "Jon Stewart Goes After Dems Russía Hystería: 'We Don't Give A F*ck'" video.

+rahn45 - Jon Stewart hand-picked Trevor Noah. It's crazy to suggest Trevor Noah and The Daily Show are as bland as Colbert. They're nothing alike. First of all Trevor Noah actually praises Bernie Sanders and progressives in the media whereas Colbert just acts like they're children and don't know what they're talking about. Trevor Noah just had Cynthia Nixon on his show the other. I don't get how people are attacking Trevor Noah just because he has reported on the Russia story. That shouldn't be the fucking deal breaker but unfortunately many of you can't think past that substance and can't handle analyzing an individual for more than just that one aspect that they report on (in a satirical way because it's fucking comedy, he's not the MSM). I'm gonna go out on a limb and just guess you don't even watch The Daily Show and don't know anything past the fact that Trevor Noah has reported on Russia every now and then when a huge story comes out about it.

I agree that the Russia story has less significance than pretty much all other foreign policy issues involving Saudi Arabia and Israel and definitely should not be given significance over real issues that affect average Americans. However, I find all this bickering and complaining about anyone whose ever done a story on the Russia investigation to be completely counterproductive and regressive in nature. You want to alienate yourselves from others on the left (even other progressives) just because they find significance in the Mueller probe. It is just one out of many MANY issues and most people here are acting like it's a fucking deal breaker like supporting the Iraq War, which is just honestly not the case AT ALL since there have been many developments in that story in the past year and half that give much validity to people who do want to talk about it, just not talk about it constantly like the MSM does on a daily basis and use it as an excuse to avoid the real issues. I find people attacking Trevor Noah on the issue just because he has done a few stories on the Mueller probe now and then to be unwarranted hate especially since Trevor Noah is a really smart guy and Jon Stewart hand-picked him to be his successor. It's weird that you have such high regard for Jon Stewart but then completely shit on his hand-picked successor as some kind of shill. It's just ridiculous and silly and all this panic and fear about smearing anyone who ever talks about Russia is getting really pathetic and kinda similar to how others on the left (the Hillary left) dismiss anyone who tries to claim that the Russia story has less or no significance whatsoever and then call you a Putin bot, which I find very frustrating as well. Why can people not take a middle ground in these issues and so many people define themselves as being a part of one extreme or the other? It's just not that simple, and I would think Secular Talk fans would be more rational and logical than this.

It's an opinion on comedy. That would be like asking someone to convince you a painting was amazing art. It's not subjective.

Trevor Noah's actually pretty good. It took a little while for me to get used to his comedy, but Daily Show is just different now. It has a less serious tone to it and leans more on satire than anything. I mean just look at Jordan Klepper's spinoff. The whole fucking thing is one big satirical experiment.

Oh the right-wing's head would explode

+SmashStomp Inc - The Rust Belt that you're referring to wasn't even jam packed with the Trump supporters he's talking about. The Rust Belt was full of Independents and two term Obama voters that voted in their own interests and decided to "roll the dice for Trump" since he was at least lying about bringing back jobs whereas Hillary didn't even have it in her to lie about it. If actual Trump supporters think of TPP and NAFTA as issues they care about, they likely only know the usual right-wing talking points and view it in a one dimensional way. They likely aren't even aware (or don't want to believe it) that Trump is slipping in the worst provisions of TPP into the renegotiation of NAFTA. Does that really sound like people who "care about the issues"?

+Emanresu56 - I don't think Articnerd was refuting what you said about how it distracts, but we shouldn't be simply dismissing the Russia investigation as gibberish just because MSM overuses it as an excuse not to talk about those issues. Trump should be accountable for all his foreign corruption. That includes Saudi Arabia, Israel, Turkey, China, and yes even Russia. I agree that MSM should be focusing on all of those equally, but just because they don't doesn't diminish the fact that the issue with Russia is still there once you clear out all the dust the MSM makes about it just like there is obviously serious issues with Israel vs Iran and Trump's military campaign in Yemen's genocide. His point was why we can't do both and include Russia in the mix, which is not only a swipe at MSM for not covering everything unless it's Russia, but is also directed at certain progressives who are fixated on discrediting anyone who investigates the Russia story and claims they're "pro-establishment". It's labeling someone as an extreme just because you disagree with one thing they do, which is the same thing neoliberals do when you tell them Russia isn't important and they call you a Putin bot. So you either get called a "Putin bot" or "pro-establishment" by one side of the conversation or another. Why can't people take a logical stance and assume maybe everything is a problem and corruption with the administration. Not just Russia, and not just everything besides Russia. That's what makes sense to me.

+Thelogicalape - Nice try at smearing Justice Democrats even though they're viciously fighting to get money out of politics and get candidates elected that take no corporate money. Do you enjoy doing the bidding of the establishment? Because as far as I can tell, the only pieces of shit that smear JD like that are establishment corporate neocons and neoliberals. You sound like one or the other to me trying to turn people away from real candidates for the people. Let me guess, you would rather people support Trump or Rand Paul right?

Trevor Noah is cool. You all are acting like picky little bitches because he talks about Russia every now and then. Learn who your friends and enemies are. If you're just going to dismiss anyone whose ever done a story about Russia, then you're going to be pretty lonely. Or you can go have "intellectual conversations" with the Trump supporters.
