I haven't watched a minute of any late night "comedy" show in years until now. It's absolutely hilarious how transparent the propaganda is, made in a writers' room as directed by a producer, and delivered by a paid actor as if it's part of an authentic dialog. It's literally an apparatus of the propaganda machine directly telling you what to think in a highly manipulative way. They make a point, surround it with shit-tier jokes with a laugh track, and then slip in the belief they want you to hold. Repeat for 20 minutes.

If you want an even bigger laugh. Go skip around the content without audience laugh tracks because of COVID.

John Oliver was one of the worse ones because he would by habit still leave in a 2-4 second gap between sentences for laughter. It was unbelievably awkward.

oh god. it was bad 30 years ago. Can't imagine what it is like now. People even pay subscription services to stream the stuff into their heads. Once they did it for 'free'.

    What're you talking about? That has nothing to do with this thread and how is some rando receiving benefit at all, apart from laughing at you for posting a copypasta?

      Please stop spamming this msg everywhere. Until we have actual solid proof that Trump will remain in his position (which won't happen till basically January) then there is no reason for this other than to just go and spam it everywhere creating misinformation.

        Keep acting like a child.

        Trump's word (and especially twitter xD) isn't proof.

          You can have your own opinion, but you must accept the facts. Imo they're all fools. Trump, in fact, isn't president yet. The vote hasn't even been held yet xD

          I won't listen [to someone telling me to not spread misinformation]

          You'll have to take that up with u/magnora7

          I used to like John Oliver but his terminal TDS and incessant screeching got too much for me. Pretty much all of the late night shills annoy the crap out of me now. I expect Coco will disappoint me too at some point...
