Current Events > Does Comedy Central actually represent the views of the American people?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Ok, so I was watching something a 9:30 on CC last night, and the Daily Show came on at 10.

All this man did, beyond a 5 minute interview with Craig Robinson about a new show, was bash Trump. Every single joke he did came back to Trump in some way.

The I leave it on for a new show, The Opposition with Jordan Klepper, which was basically nothing but conservative bashing and BLM stuff and a white guy who you would think hated himself for the color of his own skin. I hate to use the term "SJW" but this was the height of it.

Then comes the best part. The President Show. A Trump impersonator, that bashes Christianity, says that Trump overtly racist (come on), says that the Media portrays Trump BETTER than he actually is (I guess they were referring to Fox?).

Also all three shows someone said the Trump said the SOB thing about Kaepernick to draw attention away from cops killing black men and to instead make it about disrespecting the flag. If Trump is as stupid as they are saying, then how could they accuse him of orchestrating that?

I admit, I laughed at a couple of jokes Trevor Noah said, but the last two shows weren't even funny. There was a fake conservative that came on Jordan Klepper and said he sued Cornell University for not letting him in with a negative GPA. The President show was kinda funny for about 5 minutes, but then it got old and got deeper into propaganda.

But really is this the way a lot of people think? I really didn't understand HOW triggered the left was until I watched that shit for 90 minutes last night. It seems like people are losing their minds.

Probably because he didn't do it very well.

At least South Park has the balls to go after the left every once in a while.

It's not about orchestrating; it's been standard operating procedure from the beginning to make Kaepernick's protest into some sort of insult to troops and the flag.

All late night talk hosts can't stop talking about Trump. They are obsessed. I watched Steven Colbert once and he talked about Trump non stop for like 20 minutes

Comedy Central has always been a liberal circlejerk network even South Park is like that through they claim not to be on anyone's side the liberals are just inept fools while the conservatives are literally Satan's puppets in their show.

I haven't watched CC in years because of the shit you just described. It's hilarious in the most bemusing way when you're on the outside looking in (like, voting for Trump).

It's pandering to the lowest common denominator of the most childish hyper-left audiences.

People are so desperate and petty to bash Trump. What losers
---

Nah just liberal American people.
---

Let's say Jeff's show was on every day like Noah and Jordan's show that would mean on one night there would be 2 straight hours of Trump bashing

Comedy Central thinks so apparently or they wouldn't bring it up on 3 different shows. The NFL will suffer because of this, because liberals aren't exactly the target audience of pro football. They already have people selling/cancelling season tickets, and people were booing people kneeling like crazy.

I get that, but it isn't really jokes so much is it is just propaganda under the ruse of humor. Not so much with Trevor Noah, but the President Show and Jordan Klepper were absolutely horrible, they just go into straight attack mode.

I would HATE to see conservatives get this mad over a presidential election.

Noah goes straight into attack mode on Trump,too, all of his intereviews even start out with a Trump bash, then there's Colbert, he's been angry ever since Trump won and it shows, finally, back to south park, they swore they would leave the trump jokes alone but low and behold their first episode of the season is bashing the right and just last week they had a episode bashing Trump's tweets. All those people laughing at Trump's buffonary in these shows probably didn't even vote they should be laughing at themselves because if so many more americans wanted hiliary where the fuck were they during voting time? Probably arrogantly sitting at home thinking they didn't need to vote, surely the country isn't stupid enough to elect a proven liar and incompetent moron,right?

it never made sense to me to kneel for the national anthem because cops shoot black people.

I mean it isn't the feds doing the shooting it is local police departments.

If Kaepernick wants to do something worth a fuck he should've maybe donated some of his mountains of cash to the right causes (or even started up a charity, but no that would actually take effort). He might still have a job today.

Another reason people hate the left is how fucking arrogant they are in their arguments even when they're right. The Republcians in power right now are cancer, that is true without a doubt but the Democrats are all morons and have nothing to say other than I told you sos, that's not gonna win people to their side, it's just gonna make them stick with the cancer because fuck you,guy! Never underestimate the power of spite, especially in a country brought up on ideals of rebellion and wiping the arrogant smirk off someone's face. That shit about liberal tears isn't just a joke, it's a mindset lots of people are getting even itf it's stupid, but the liberals are encouraging that stupidity with their arrogance.

back to south park,

I'm not watching south park anymore after they made the announcement that this season wasn't gonna be political, and the first two episodes are straight up about politics

the fucked up thing about South Park is that back in the day it was moderate/slightly conservative in a libertarian sense.

You're not missing out, that randy episode this week was awful, he's become another Homer Simpson/Peter Griffin

I like you because you can realize that there is a huge problem with both sides of the coin. One of the more common sense users here imo

I'm not understanding your point, tc. What were you unaware of? The most people hate Trump? That his childish behavior makes him an easy target for jokes? That we see very few reasonable conservatives in the public eye because the ones in power are cancer (as tremain said) and the ones on our Facebook feeds tend to be very stupid, simple and heavy on the memes?

Like Tremain said, conservatives are running on pure spite at this point and it doesn't make you guys look mature. Neither do the college liberals asking for fingerpaints and stuffed animals, but electing the worst president in modern history not because you thought he'd be a good choice but because you just wanted to see liberal tears is WAY worse. It actually affects important shit.

If you want to be treated like adults, your party needs more Penn Jilette and less Alex Jones before they're no longer the butt of jokes.

And that's not to say that liberals have their heads on straight, but they're way better at delivering a joke.

The joke becomes annoying when it's the same joke every night, even in the bush years it wasn't 20 straight minutes of stupid shit he said and did, It's good they're keeping people informed about this shitshow but holy crap, other shit is going on in the world,too. At least make that your majority instead of stupid shit the president said and did today and it's especially bad on the monday's because Trump has developed a nasty habit for doing the extremely dumb on Fridays before he goes and robs the taxpayers again.

Believe me, I get tired of hearing it too. Partially because it's lazy writing, and partially because I can't believe Trump himself is saying the same stupid shit over and over and giving everyone more material.
