To be clear, I'm not being anti-semitic. Jon Stewart, to me, is emblematic of everything wrong with liberal politics in the United States. He spent 8 years dunking on George W and Republicans for being "stupid" while they consolidated power. He had a massive platform to mobilize liberals and instead they all made jokes about how uncultured Republicans were, while the Republican Party played a ground game that let them redistrict and take control of courts at every level to establish minority rule over the country.

Bill Maher - I don't follow him as closely, but everything I hear is basically regurgitated reactionary schtick. He says "the things they don't want you to say" which really means punching down at fat people, queers, people of color, etc. He's a relic of the early 2000s when you could attract a sizeable audience just by being a substance-less edgelord. As far as I know he's basically done a 180 politically because liberals used to enjoy that stuff but now it's more popular with right wingers.

The person in the article also discovered Ray Romano, so... he's 3/3 in my book.

John Liebowitz wasn’t a political organizer. He was a mediocre comedian paid to tell low-info people how to think (and vote).

I’m also astonished at how liberals, with full financial support of the world’s wealthiest people (you could count notable exceptions on your hands), censorship authority over every digital and print media, control over education curricula, union bosses, the FBI, and more have the ability to believe that they’re victims of some right wing conspiracy. It’s not just wrong; it’s the opposite of the truth. The US is still distinguishable from North Korea, so clearly there must be skullduggery afoot! BIG OIL must have done this! It can’t possibly be that most regular people think my pseudo-religion is dumb.
