who honestly cares

I do a great job of never seeing or hearing about him, until one of you makes these threads

>2015 man relevant in 2016

It would be nice if he did one on the DNC, I did actually like Oliver's videos on more partisan political issues in the US. Stuff like the infrastructure episode and one on public defenders was bretty gud

What is this guy's end game? Dosen't he realise the further down the echo chaimber he leads the liberals, the more people leave?

I always hated this guy.
He sucked on Community, which was also a shitty show, and it's impudent for a British national to make satire of American politics.
Deal with your own nation's news, you arrogant fucktard.

How do Americans meekly nod along to a British man telling them how shit is?

I thought this was anathema to the American psyche.

Such an annoying twat

Hasn't he made some points surrounding issues like pharmaceuticals, the judge buddy system and the crippling infrastructure in the states?

I don't like him either but he doesn't seem to be 100% bulshit.

> Republicans are using feelings over facts
> look at the FBI's statistics that say crime is down

Sounds familiar.

What he says doesn't seem like bullshit if you're ignorant about it but if you watch one of his shows about something you know, you see it's total shit.

He had one about girl gamers or online bullying, I forget exactly.

Most of us don't. This is also why Piers Morgan was so hated and why south African Trevor Noahs daily show is taking a dive in the ratings.

There are always pussy bootlickers in every group though. In the US when we rebelled there were just as many colonists that supported freedom as supported the crown. Those loser crybaby bootlickers went north after the war and became Canadians. That's why canada is the pussy version of america

>Donold Tromp

Crime is down relative to what? 20 years ago?

Also those statistics are an aggregate of ALL crimes, not just violent crimes. There's a terrorist attack every other week, these are strange times, don't try pretending they aren't.

Corporate shill. Fuck outta here you trat.

I don't disagree with as much as I should with a typical John Oliver video.

Americans are fucked.

he showed a chart of violent crime rate going down during Obongo like this here

disastercenter.com/crime/uscrime.htm

Autistic part is that it's been going down since the 90s, so it doesn't even really matter

his facial expressions legit make me angry, I'm normally pretty calm.

BEADY

When will Britain take him back?

Most of the issues he tends to criticize the right for apply to the left as well. He should have just been more neutral and criticized cronyism in general.

...

>Sup Forums gets triggered by a Britfag TV comedian

Come on, I know you are better than this!

youtu.be/IQwMCQFgQgo

I am triggered by people who immigrate here and then talk shit about our politics

Has everyone on pol signed this yet?

change.org/p/hbo-replace-john-oliver-with-a-woman

Don't they see the irony in arguing that feelings aren't facts?

I can't wait to see his segment on the DNC leaks.

He will do one...right?

>What he says doesn't seem like bullshit if you're ignorant about it but if you watch one of his shows about something you know, you see it's total shit.

This is very accurate. This comes true for me whenever he talks about economics.

>OMG we have to ban guns because there is a mass shooting like every single day
>I-I don't know what Trump is talking about, the world is more peaceful than ever!

I will personally help load the ovens when the day comes to remove these hypocritical, two-faced lying Jews.

Canada assraped you and burned down your capitol the last time you tried to start shit with them lol

Has he ever shit talked Hillary or Sanders?

Surprised he didn't do his whole show about how the RNC is full of "male escorts and butt sex". That's the kind of shit that would have been right up his meme alley.

He was going to make this rant regardless of what happened

Dying leftist comedian

I thought the email leak confirmed that the entire media was in the dnc's pocket so if that's the case then the answer is definitely "no"

>you can't use feelings over facts
>Hillary is rolling out half a dozen dindu moms because they dindu nuffin

>I will personally help load the ovens when the day comes to remove these hypocritical, two-faced lying Jews.

But remember guise! Holocaust is just a myth! :^)

>Trevor Noah
Least funny person on the planet. I've seen female comedians who are better than him.

Not a lot of Republicans and Drumpf fanbois apparently.

That's fucking hilarious desu

>Check out the UCR
>Violent crime in 2015 is + almost across the board

You didn't actually check out the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, or you didn't understand it. So which are you: a liar or an idiot?

Not available in my country wtf? any idea on how to fix this

What a qt

>feelings are irrelevant
>unless they belong to someone who isn't a straight white male

something something yuri psyops something demoralization

Genuinely surprised and delighted there were no poop or pee jokes this time

I'm quoting to illustrate the hypocrisy. Republicans are finally trolling liberals in the manner that liberals argue.

I guarantee you he'll never mention the DNC leaks.

Yeah we went cocoon mode and emerged as the lone superpower. Their claim to fame is that nobody hates them even though their our sub bitch.

>What he says doesn't seem like bullshit if you're ignorant about it but if you watch one of his shows about something you know, you see it's total shit.

There is a fancy name for that. You read a newspaper about sth you know about and see the author's bullshit. You turn the page to read something you don't know that much about and believe every word.

NO REAL ARGUMENTS IN THIS THREAD

I heard he's funny in South Africa because he says the same exact things that he does here but the difference is that in the case of SA it's funny because it's true. I can't confirm though, only repeating what other people in Sup Forums said.

Americans love to gobble up Z-list and has been british celebrities

The part with Gingrich was pretty embarrassing though. Good thing he wasn't picked as VP.

I've seen his stand-up, and I do think that he was a pretty okay comedian but his show is terrible. It feels like he doesn't actually write his own jokes.

that was england not canada ladyboy

so not having been born in a country gives you no right to have an opinion or share an opinion on that country's politics even if you are now a citizen? even if it's your job and you actually do more research and know more about it than the average national.

wew

The socialists that love this shit would have been the people that wanted to stay with the UK back in the day

Not many people fought the British, ironically

kill yourself. you probably wanted to remain.

The left has been spinning US history... basically Columbus came over to rape and murder indians, the entire economy was based on slaves we kidnapped from Africa, and our whole culture has been bent to rape women into line.

They unironically believe these things, and have been attempting to peg patriots as jingoistic morons... with some success, but we took that back. Murrica.

Complaining just makes you extra stupid, racist, and sexist, and would get them torn apart by their commie friends.

I don't care if Trump does like him, I'm still not going to be nice to Tears Morgan until he apologizes for the gun grabbing.

At least our economy isn't based on whoring ourselves to Americans.

>muh feelings instead of facts
I'm pretty sure I've heard this argument before from Prager university regarding leftists

Today they even uploaded a video claiming that conservatives are more kinder than liberals LEL. I'm a conservative and I know that is bullshit.

Lebowitz summons "Oliver" Liebowitz casts laugh track on Olivers social commentary with mo jokes technique.

Honestly, he's pretty fantastic. His segments are always hard hitting and funny. He's probably the only must-watch person on US television at the moment. At least he's not a miserable hypocrite and stooge like Sean Hannity, was was proven last week.

So I am not the only one who noticed that. However Oliver also had no real arguments in his immigration, brexit and border wall videos.

>Conservatives aren't kinder than liberals

I don't know about Middle Earth but here in Burgerstan conservatives genuinely are kinder than liberals

>Not available in your country
Thank fuck for that

>I can't wait to see his segment on the DNC leaks.
>He will do one...right?

What's slimey limey's opinion on DNC leaks?

>the era of the liberal "comedian" is ending

Thank fucking God.

Not sure why you're posting this, he completely BTFOs Trump and his retarded supporters.

>He sucked on Community, which was also a shitty show

nigger you what

I'm ashamed that his da came from my city

m.youtube.com/watch?v=LCayqrFm0pI

> Politicians deny statistics and facts for "feelings"
> Sup Forums will defend this

this
Sup Forums btfo, will you ever recover?

The topic was the RNC. Why the fuck should he cover that leak here, when the DNC probably gets it's own video

We can still shit on him if he skips that topic and never mentioned the leaks in another one

Yeah ok, I'll bite.

It does not matter if some statistics improve if you don't equally feel that the situation improves.
People are still afraid on planes even though they are one of the safest means of transport.
People are still feeling let down by their government even though the economy is growing on the paper.

If you don't feel like you are part of this progress all the facts in the world won't change shit.

After all we are not rational beings as some want us to believe. Yes on paper and in discussions - sure. But I'm sure John Oliver will succumb to his feelings when he walks through a bad neighbourhood and clutch his purse.

BUT CRIME IS DOWN JOHN, TRANSCEND YOUR FEELINGS..

The fact he won't is the problem.

Hillary has so much dirt on here that needs to be exposed.

if you're gonna do politics, everyone gets made fun of or no one does.

leftists aren't american they're globalists

Can someone summarise his points? Is it all purely adhom like usual?

That's what you get for not making fun of your side when they start fucking shit up.

Thanks for sharing, didn't know based Ollie was back, loved every second, you did God's work spreading his message, have 0.02 hillbucks.

Go back to imgur fag

so basically youre defending anti-intellectualism? if influential people, like Trump, and the republican party in general werent so fucking retarded and actually acknowledged the facts, everyones feelings would match up with reality

Simple question: Where are the bodies? There weren't enough ovens to burn 6 million bodies. That would have taken two decades.

No mass graves found though.

I'm so fucking sorry about Trevor Noah senpai, apparently I'm one of the few South Africans that think he's always been shit

> Facts don't matter if they don't "feel" right

what the actual fuck. Imagine a liberal would say, what you just said. It's not really far-fetched.

Sup Forums would probably make a new meme out of that

Noone cares if you "feel" the sun is blue or climate change doesn't exist

> BUT HEY! LOOK I GOT A SNOWBALL RIGHT HERE

Have fun with your "feelings"

No.

What I am trying to say is that we are highly emotional beings and this won't change anytime soon.

At the same time many of us strive to go beyond our emotions - a constant struggle against our nature.

The republicans (or for that matter probably the majority of political parties) and media know this and appeal to the emotions of people.

Emotions are being used in advertising and marketing to sell us products.

At the same time people are supposed to be able to switch to full on rational when talking about crime?

It would be lovely but farfetched - I believe.

literally nobody in the UK has ever heard of John Oliver

Is he going to do one making fun of the DNC?

of course not, he's not a racist

They're learning. They need to be stopped before they discover how to use meme magiks.

Don't be delusional, feelings are central to human nature.
Trying to transcend them is admirable and a huge part of the human condition imho.

Still, I am not delusional to the fact, that my emotions play a part in how I interpret things.

It is something else holding up a snowball and claiming global warming does not exist and knowing that statistically, crime is down, but still feeling unsafe in a certain area.

If you live in the shittiest part of town, and crime there goes up because it is pushed from other parts of the town. Statistically crime might be down in the city but your personal experience can not confirm that.

Thus, you discredit the statistics.

This could be counterd by more detailed statistics but let's be honest, statistics are almost always flawed when it comes to social stuff.

Some crimes might not be reported because they are seen as "normal" around one parts whereas in other parts every single sidestep by a citizen is filed.

Best tweet I saw about drumpfman

yeah advertisements twist the truth about their product in order to shed a better light on it

the same way the republicans lie by appealing to """"""""emotion""""""""" even if it doesnt reflect reality

>t the same time people are supposed to be able to switch to full on rational when talking about crime?

I suppose not if they are retarded like Trump supporters

It's funny because Prager University said the exact opposite of what John Oliver claims
youtu.be/_rOb_z-yYrU

crime rate is decreasing, but it could be lower, and stricter gun laws would achieve this. a reason for the decrease in crime is also implementation of stricter gun laws.

is it really that hard to understand?

Yes, because almost all gun crimes are committed with illegal guns, so how would restricting LEGAL guns help?

Just leaving this here :^)
