iirc john oliver also pushed the “uyghur genocide” narrative and even interviewed the dalai lama so honestly we should just cut all these shows right off
I can’t say this enough but John Oliver is straight up controlled opposition. Every show (haven’t watched since sometime before COVID but I can almost guarantee his schtick is the same) is him going over one of capitalism’s many failings/success stories (depending on where you fall in the class structure) and redirecting any potential thoughts about addressing the systemic issues into blaming one guy/family/org. They’re the problem, not the system that allows them to perpetuate the abuse and exploitation.
He’s literally married to a Republican veteran who was working for Pete Hegseth when they met. Dude has mentioned how he can’t win any arguments with her since she just uses the “I’m a troop, you’re just a comedian” card on him lmao
Maybe, but he’s still willing to cede the moral high ground to a Republican activist who participated in the invasion of Iraq. Like I said before, he’s never against capitalism or the american imperial project itself, he just wants it to have better optics.
hey remember when this guy pushed the Chinese lab leak theory during a wave of anti-Asian violence

WHAT WAS SHE DOING IN THAT WAR YOU INSUFFERABLE DIPSHIT
even serial killers don’t lose the moral high ground to a yankee troop
especially one that works in war-criminal rights
Yeah, John Oliver is ick
He also did a ”Vuvuzela bad” episode and one on Taiwan too.
Also came after Jill Stein, after Bernie was conspiratorially cheated out of the Dem nomination in ‘16.
Total douche punching down.
i think he still does it
