“Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia”

Toby freaking Keith gets a writeup but not a word on Wayne Kramer. SMDH.

Yep. Switching positions and then pretending that you always believed in the position currently held is as American as apple pie.

It’s the old “prematurely anti-fascist” thing where you were right but its suspicious you were right before we decided it was right, so you don’t get to be right

One strange, frustrating feature of the politics around the Iraq War is that a broad consensus has emerged that the war was a colossal mistake, without any corresponding acknowledgement that the people saying that in 2003 were right. I suspect that many of the people who were eager to vilify the Dixie Chicks in 2003…

You’re correct. He’s outgrown the show, and SNL needs him more than he needs SNL. I agree with your sincere statement. 

Seriously, that’s quite a leap to assume that a gay man of Chinese descent wouldn’t be happy about appearing on a show with a guy who has made jokes at the expense of both Chinese and LGBTQ folks. 

I would think that most popular media has a cast that’s less conservative that its audience.

Wow, this is the first time I’ve seen this aggressively pathetic incel actually engage with an article instead of just posting the same comment below other comments.

I watched about half an hour of his material. One chunk was about how Down’s Syndrome kids “love John Cena and tits” ending with “i never believed that being gay was a choice, but it’s true that people who can’t think love pussy.” But he prefaces the whole thing by talking about how a Down’s Syndrome family member is…

Interestingly, no one is exactly sure who those analysts are either.

What is specifically bad is having to do 2 map missions in order to do 30 minutes of traversing an empty map trying to farm kills to get enough currency to pick between 6 plays of 3 generic end game missions or 1 boss fight.

HOLY FUCK, THIS GUY JUST SIGNED AS A BUDWEISER SPOKESPERSON?!?!?

I remember when you had to be a billionaire mogul or media star to have folks and bots itching to defend you online. Now any rando with a podcast gets, "so what if he's racist! Check out his patreon!" It's very weird.

Call me old fashioned, but I remember when they used to hire famous and/or talented people to host SNL.
