Just imagine what would happen to world politics if a tape leaked of The Pope, Trump and Putin having a big old hardcore anal gay threesome.


Nice

Fair, next. If you chose to portray yourself as a bleeding heart liberal, you should be subjected to the same idiotic standards.

Just a bunch of hypocrites who think Colbert should be fired because he said something "un-PC", while at the same time being outraged at the PC culture.

You can't make this shit up.



he went insane calling our President childish names and vulgar insults on national TV as the premier talk show host as a major network

Sure, he's allowed to say that, but is CBS really going to support this kind of foolish behavior?

If they don't, another TV station that does will grab him as soon as he's let go.


i doubt it.

I used to like Colbert, but literally everytime I watch his show it's just making fun of Trump. They should just call it the Trump Hour. The show has no purpose other than soothing crybabies still upset at the election.


I mean when you're a dumbass who says dumb shit, people make fun of you. This is nothing that started with Trump tbh despite how butt flustered his supporters get

I take it liberals are alright with this particular derogatory hate speech since it's directed at Trump.

their equivalents for conservative viewers did constantly


Not trying to be argumentative here but I don't think this is an accurate statement.


if you think that, you probably don't consume much conservative media

the typical viewer of hannity, limbaugh, or alex jones would say that the difference is "their claims are true!" and not that they're less vulgar, because they aren't.

I don't.

I try to avoid most media in general so conservative media is definitely out since it's such a smaller percentage of the media we have here in the US.

Also lol at the guy who posted Joan Rivers to make a point.

What he said was wrong, and offensive in so many ways.

He should have said, "...Netanyahu's cock holster.".

As far as I can make out:

- Trump snubs Colbert's buddy
- Colbert does a monologue and makes a tame insult about Trump being Putin's bedbuddy
- Trump supporters pretend to suddenly care about homophobic slurs being offensive in an attempt to get Colbert fired
- Trump supporters: "We hate this new age snowflake SJW agenda that's poisoning America. But you can't make gay jokes about the president mr Colbert, that's offensive!"
- Trump supporters not understanding how a homophobic slur works
- everyone scratches heads
- Colbert laughs it off
- no one actually cares on either side, entirely fabricated controversy and a wast of news time

No one was ever making comments like this about Obama on mainstream network shows. Talk radio, sure. But no one on CBS ever came close.

FWIW, I had no issue with Colbert's comments. It wouldn't have even raised an eyebrow had I been watching it in real time.

The truth of this situation is pretty obvious.

- Colbert is disliked by certain individuals due to his constant jokes about the president
- Colbert slips up and says something that those certain individuals can use against him, but they don't actually care about

I dislike Colbert because there's only so many times a comedian can use the same material before it runs it's course. But let's be real here, the people complaining about this allegedly homophobic joke don't care about the joke itself, they're just looking for a reason to target Colbert.

Thing is the gay community pretends to be offended at any moment when a celebrity makes a gay joke. Hell even Dave Chappelles new special got bashed for being homophobic

But in this case it's against trump so it's cool

I'm not offended but 9 times out of 10 people will act offended, but because it's against trump its "woooohoooo you go Stephen drag him bae!!"

where as if say, Lebron said something like "steph curry can eat a dick" it would be the end of the world


And yes it would be the end of the world if someone said this about Obama. Not only homophobic but also racist
