Jon Stewart is back on The Daily Show
(www.youtube.com)
For sharing interesting videos from around the Web!
Amazing to see Jon back. I watched The Daily Show with Jon Stewart obsessively for years, and never thought to see this again. He's still got it. Just a few more white hairs.
Given that I also aged in the interim, I prefer his current look. He's a silver fox.
I haven't laughed that hard in a while. I'm grateful that he's back to give us a way to laugh through the bullshit and motivate us to keep fighting.
Literally almost spit out my iced latte this am watching. Glad to see him back. Great show.
Somehow, irrespective of indicating any kind of actual political ideology, this is the most liberal comment I have ever read on the internet.
Lmao
His Apple TV show was great too, except for Apple being scared to let anybody criticize China.
I liked the Apple TV show, too. The podcast was one of my absolute go-to's every week, even if I was not that interested in the topic. He said something in one of them similar to the idea he had at the end of Monday's TDS where he said that if you want to do change, it takes hard work on the local level. If you want to get out of the mind-fuck that is national politics in the US (and I'd argue in most places), you need to actually pay attention to what is happening in your own neighborhood and try to fix that.
Which is a fair point, but also at the local level is where it's more challenging, because not only are you getting involved with things that more directly affect you, but also you can make yourself a target to those that want to push change in the other direction, so of course not everyone is up to that task and that's why the overly aggressive conservatives constantly eat our lunches on the local level, and why they tend to scare off folks trying to change things at the local level.
This is happening all across the country, it's why many of the more moderate Republicans have resigned or left their party, their districts, and it's a barrier for Left leaning folks. I believe in Margorie Taylor Greene's district one of the contenders against her was harassed and threatened to the point of dropping out of the race.
The Left needs brave people that are ready to lay their lives on the line for what we believe, the stakes are as high as they've ever been, and so is the danger, and it's not like we can count on the authorities to do their jobs to protect us, because they've clearly shown that they are either incapable or unwilling, especially the fact that the thin blue line flag now flies in every law enforcement building, and if anything that flag is synonymous with fascism, MAGA, and police protectionism from consequences.
Joe Biden is not wrong when he says that this election is "a battle for the soul of the nation" because quite obviously it is, and if Trump is elected there will he no progress made politically against this type of stuff anytime soon.
Like refusing to vote for a strike blocking, genocide supporting piece of shit? I'm on it. 🫡
the literal nazi is clearly the better option
If people had made better decisions in the 2020 primaries then we wouldn't be having this discussion. We'd have a candidate who could literally run circles around Trump. Instead people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries are responsible for this: https://youtu.be/NpBPm0b9deQ?t=430
un huh and if pigs could fly and 3 million more votes mattered …
I'll be sure to repeat that line back to you once the 2024 general election has concluded.
the lack of self awareness lol but you go ahead and do that
Lol I'm literally trying to have a conversation that would bring about some self awareness and you hand waved it away.
No your not. Any intelligent question you completely disregard and ignore. You don't want conversation, you want to attack, insult and degrade. Grow up
Yes I want to attack the people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries. Can you help me explain what relevance Trump has there?
just pirate
It’s brittle and pearlescent! I can’t stand it!
Yeah, its weird tos ee how young he looked back then. I never put much thought into that. It didnt feel like it was that long ago.
It would be great if he could get Steven Colbert and John Oliver to take up their roles as again, too.
Don't forget that lunar surface.
