I don't remember this being posted here and I just heard about it today, so it's news to me.

      John Oliver is an example of how far "left" a liberal media personality is allowed to toe the line against interests if capital and our political classes. This article is also a great example because in his show he doesn't even go this far (or at least I've never heard him say "you know what Lenin had some good ideas y'all").

        Okay but Jon Stewart actually does real good work rescuing farm animals. They aren't the same and that's a really gross comparison tbh.
