      I think he's one of the only ones (minus maybe Trevor Noah) who's heart is at least in the right place. I think he honestly does care and want to make the world a better place, he's just maybe a bit out of touch with what that concretely means.

        trevor did something or had a nuclear take that really annoyed the fucking shit out of me but i can't be bothered to remember what it was. idk political comedians are pretty universally awful to me personally lol

          He cut a video of Bernie short to make it look like he called a child dumb, and then didn't even show the rest of the clip so it wasn't even a joke, it was literally a smear. He also laughed about South Africans getting shot while striking from their jobs.

              Yeah, there's really no coming back from that. The guy is and always will be garbage.

          I think basically everyone has some nuclear take that would annoy the shit out of me. I hate celebrity worship, but I also hate pointless celebrity hate. I read TN's book and it was really good.

            It's ok to take inspiration from people, but having heroes is for children.

                It's something I think is very relatable. We all looked up to someone who we found out was a garbage person. That doesn't negate the good they did, but hero worship elevates some real shitheads sometimes
