I feel like there’s always a group that hates everything so I could really choose anything. Things that come to my mind in particular was I remember a WEIRDLY huge anger against She Ra back on the old sub for a little. Like a small but vocal group of probably stupidpols. Also remember a Lot of butt hurt over Death of Stalin mixed with a lot of approval that was weird
But if I REALLY want to cause a struggle sesh and be hated. I still enjoy watching Last Week Tonight every now and then. Its still the best late night show of its type, and I still find Oliver funny and his delivery great.
Also it is STILL the easiest show to start radicalizing with because, despite the (sadly ever growing) lib shit like trump or the growing number of China segments he still does touch on important shit no one else ever would. His video on Union busting was great and seems to have REALLY had a positive effect. I know at least ten people who’s path to socialism began with his report on trailer park homes. And I know many of you won’t admit it but your journey started with his stuff.
Better your friends and family watch him then Samantha Bee call Bernie a pedo for the thousandth time
Agreed. Which from everything I have heard and read is what Oliver WANTS it to be. A few years ago I listened to an NPR interview where they asked him the report that he was proudest of to which he responded the chicken one. And the way he talked about it and the anger he showed over how hard they had to fight to make that the top story. You could tell THATS where his passion was.
Hell he said he started the show to talk about how lobbyists are destroying the country from both sides.
That's true, but also foreign policy is the one thing the US can still do in a functioning way. Like the Roman Empire in 400CE, the Frontiers are still mostly intact but the interior is rotten.
Well said. This is honestly where Chapo and Felix specifically helped radicalize me further. His harping on about how the one thing that is off the table no matter what is empire, you talk about unions, you can talk about medicare for all, but you cannot even mention the empire. That shit really has become the focus of my politics, not just mild criticism of how expensive our military is, but actually fighting against our military and everything it stands for.
My comrades are whoever looks at the most radical reforms Bernie offered and said "not fucking good enough" because it leaves the empire intact. We have to question 9/11 ruthlessly, and our actions as more than a mistake, but a willful crime

Last Week Tonight is great, as long as it sticks to domestic US politics and environmental issues.
