I just can't stand John Oliver. He symbolizes most everything I hate about hipster douchebag SJW culture. He paints those who disagree with him as bigoted, moron, hillbillies, and the holier-than-thou attitude coming from a Brit just really irks me. Ironically, these anti-Trump videos he makes are doing more for Trump's cause than most of Trump's rallies (with the exception of the Chicago one). I have never seen this amount of hate directed toward a candidate (and that includes Obama, who I voted for), than I do when I see the comments on these videos posted to facebook. The number of people calling for the assassination of Trump is absolutely disgusting. He disagrees with them on black lives matter and what to do about Islamic terrorism, so these people think he should be killed? The majority of comments on those videos are more along the lines of "hahahaha look at this idiot Trump, anyone who supports him is some kind of wet biscuit retĪ±rd!" When I see shit like that, it makes me want to vote for him more just to watch these "tolerant" morons squirm.
Just my 2 cents, I think you're reading too much into John Oliver. The simple fact is that he's a comedian first and his show is a comedy show. It's no different than John Stewart or Colbert were. He's playing to what people want to hear and people take it at face value. Most level-headed people realize he's strictly showing one side and is pandering for comedy and views.
Honestly, what he's doing is nearly identical to what Trump is doing just on the other side of the spectrum.

Right, the people being the majority of democrat voters who regard this as "news". Level-headed people don't watch this crap or just watch it out of curiosity.
What he does has no resemblance to what Trump does. Because you laugh at Trump doesn't mean he's trying to make you laugh.

The wall would have to be a mile high for it to really prevent shit. I loved the part where it dawned on Trump mid sentence that people with a rope could circumvent his brilliant wall. I do agree with securing the border somehow though. I think a giant moat would be harder to cross than a wall. If the side leading to the U.S is just a slick wall of mud that would be hard to get up. And i'm assuming it would cost a shit ton less to dig a giant deep moat.

Yeah because they don't have rowboats in Mexico, and building a makeshift raft is too complicated for dumb Mexicans. Brilliant idea Cleve.

When right wing news is being put against a comedy show, I think that shows more of a problem with the left.
I'd also wager to bet, that while not completely unbiased, Oliver's show is less biased than Beck

They're both biased - but Beck is a total nutcase who thinks he's speaking on behalf of Jesus, so I'd probably agree with you.
I don't care about Oliver being biased, but he's not funny (which is why he failed as a comedian in the UK) - that's the only reason I don't care to ever watch his show.

I think he's funny (or at the very least, the writers)

Right, if you don't find his comedy funny I can completely respect that and won't argue on something subjective. But it's a simple understanding that he is a comedian first who is objectively making others laugh albeit with a touchy subject. Heck, I still laugh at some of his stuff but he's starting to get painfully repetitive in his routine, but if it ain't broke don't fix it I suppose.
-
I think he's great. And I fully understand his stuff is written to appeal to his target audience. As a matter of fact every broadcast concerning current event is based on the viewers. It's not to convince them of one thing or another but to validate their pre-existing opinions.

Anyone see him before the operation?

Fucking little british fag.

See, translated, you're calling him a cigarette.

I think it's a little disingenuous to say it's only a comedy show. Would you say the Watters World segments on the O'Reilly factor aren't news because they have a comedic spin?

It is primarily a comedy show that pokes fun at recent events / news. To do so, it presents the story, with facts, but in a way and with opinions not everyone might agree with.

Fuck John Oliver for god's sake he's doesn't agree with me on anything, vote Limbaugh!

That doesn't make it any less a show that people go to get their news.

Sure, but it isn't trying to be a show that people get their news from. Beck and the like are.

I 100% disagree with that. Every single video you've posted is injected with the politics of current events.

To me John Oliver is making fun of the news and the people making the news, while Glenn Beck is not. He thinks he KNOWS what's best for people.

According to this a wall is feasible:
