All this person did was post a basic criticism of Oliver and now everyone is undeservedly dunking on them for it.

So calling out Oliver for not talking about capitalism is being media illiterate? lol
"Media illiteracy" is quickly becoming one of the three or so rotating concepts twitter uses to explain every phenomenon until it loses all meaning
Don't agree with me? Didn't know you were media illiterate
It's annoying how this keeps happening to ideas. It'd be cool if someone could trace the lineage of: new, accurate critique of the world -> critique's general proliferation and linguistic adoption because of its truth -> low-tier orbiters using critique incorrectly as an insta-win argument online, losing its original meaning.
This is so fucking stupid lmao. Criticizing America's politics without saying capitalism bad is exactly what the state wants. To the people living in America, neoliberalism is an invisible ideology. Not pointing it out is flailing in the dark, not pointing it out on purpose makes you their tool.
Read theory!

Also John Oliver's jokes are mostly unfunny crass yelling at the audience/screen and just relies on the irony poisoning of living in a capitalist society. Every hexbear on this site is funnier than John Oliver, even our beanis comrades.
what are beanis comrades?
beanis
it's me, i'm the beanis comrade.
This is literally the point of the meme lol. How do you call someone else illiterate and then regurgitate their exact point except make it more annoying and long winded as if it’s a gotcha
