    My biggest criticism is that the ending of the video is very weak. Usually when John Oliver makes segments, he finishes them with like a big surprise ending. When he made a video about how companies would resell medical debt to debt collecting agencies, he announces that he bought a bunch of medical debt and then forgave it, pennies on the dollar. I would have expected John to tell his audience to donate to Palestinian relief fund or to pressure their government representatives to call for a ceasefire. He just says that Palestinians and Israelis just need to sit down and talk it out. This is really disgusting because in this conflict, Israel has all of the power and Palestine has nothing, Israel is clearly the aggressor. An oppressed people can not simply "talk it out" with their oppressors.

    reminds me of a talking "expert" head i saw on the television discussion panel saying stuff like "well they have to talk it over, but right now isnt the time to have those talks." like lmao, what the fuck does that even mean, you wet tissue-paper limp-wristed dickhead!

    fucking wish that the shithead has to shovel up his kids into a plastic bag and then some genius goes: "well you just gotta talk it out with the people who put your kid into a bag, even though you have literally no power in this situation."
