True. Can’t deny that. Everything you said is true. But...

“but I found myself wishing both Williams and DeGeneres had called Burrell’s actions out a little more explicitly.”

Thank God y’all are taking on the burden of adjudicating some of these high-level disputes, it saves the International Criminal Court at The Hague some docket space.

Stories of Trump supporters “attacking” women and minorities were all over Jezebel, and Jezebel even grudgingly admitted some of those were hoaxes.

Uh dude, you may not know this but black on white crime doesnt exist here.

Four teens kidnapped a mentally disabled teen and tortured him for at least a day and maybe two days, and filmed it and put it on Facebook Live. The Superintendent of Police in Chicago called it “kids just being kids.” Because oh sure, the scamps! Stealing candy from the drug store, TP-ing a house, kidnapping and…

As much as it pains me, I’m gonna have to agree with Joe on this one....

a good and right opinion—that Phish is a great band.

Counterpoint: Phish and the Grateful Dead are absolutely fucking terrible. I hate Joe but even a broken clock blah blah blah.

He’s right, Phish blows donkey dicks and should go away forever.

Eh, he’s not that wrong about Phish being a middling band.

No, I think the point he makes is fighting “at all,” for unions, not “instead of.”

It’s an excellent example of Dems being out of touch.

Don’t know about you, but I heard a lot more noise being made over transgender rights than unions and worker’s rights.

Jesus, Hamilton, I’d expect your straw man argument to at least be less obvious.

That’s not what was written. He said to fight for both equally as hard, not choose one over the other. Are you still hungover from New Years?

Buuuttt the point he’s trying to make that you cavalierly ignored, isn’t wrong. Or you can keep doing what ya’ll’ve been doing. That’s worked.

Nice strawman.

Maybe if the democrats fought fervently for unions the way they fought for transgender bathroom rights we wouldn’t be in this shitty conundrum.

John Oliver is British, so he probably finds this reception to be a comforting reminder of his rightful place in the universe.
