This shaping up to be spectacular! As someone whose younger self was there when Sacha Baron Cohen unleashed Ali G on the unsuspecting morons of the early 2000s — including our orange prez, The Donald — I’ve sometimes lamented that he’d never be able to get away with it again.

Yeah, but I mean, when has political satire (or humor in general) NOT been preaching to the choir? I mean, conservatives aren’t tuning in to shows like The Daily Show or any other show that mocks them, and vice versa. I mean let’s be honest, no one in that Sam Bee “c*nt” controversy would have ever seen that clip if…

It’s not all desperate has-beens. He got Joe Arpaio who is currently running for Senate, so it’s also desperate, criminal pieces of shit who refuse to do the world a favor and wander off into the wilderness, never to be seen or heard from again.

Kind of happens that way when you’re out of power in every branch of the federal government.

There will be no legislative, judicial or executive victories to celebrate for at least the next year, and probably the next three. The most that anyone can do is try to move voters to head to the polls. I doubt that Donald…

That’s a pretty good description of what Trump is doing right now in the UK.

It sounds like it’s pissing off a bunch of rightwing chuds, so I am here for it. 

The original comment happened to mention Samantha Bee specifically. You may have noticed that I also went on to make a general critique of the other late night hosts from that comment. If you want me to rip into Trevor Noah, Bill Maher, Stephen Colbert (loved the Report, but his current show sucks), John Oliver, Seth…

Well, first of all, it’s kind of throwing stones in glass houses for the AV Club to be complaining about a comedy show attacking the right wing, considering the ostensible pop culture site the AV Club has become mostly about jabbing at Trump in every single article. (Not that he doesn’t deserve it, but the political…

Baron Cohen is depansting these people. He’s vastly better than Samantha Bee, who mostly just yells (not even makes actual jokes, just shouts in the general cadence of one) as if that’s supposed to qualify as satire somehow. I loved Stewart, but he did inadverently give rise to all these clapter machines that just do…

Well I personally think this is...

Or, you know, don’t care about what other kids are named, especially when they aren’t out of the ordinary?

Palin has no decency. She deserves to be tricked and laughed at because she’s a terrible fucking person.

... the AV Club didn’t do that. Different company. Different people. Do you even know what site you’re on right now?

Yes, your comment also reminds me that a certain subtype of nerd exists who absolutely cannot stand the idea that anyone he thinks is not clever might occasionally think of themselves as clever. Like, the whole concept of someone being satisfied by a silly joke they made drives him up the fucking wall, and makes him…

If you didn’t understand clickhole was satirical after reading some of it or seeing their quizzes or lists (!!), I don’t blame you for enjoying the pandering dulcet tones of xkcd reassuring you that it couldn’t possibly be that you may not be the sharpest knife on the internet.

This is the exact wrong take.

Just because you CAN post a photo of someone who’s out in public doesn’t mean you should. We’ve also run pieces about street photography encouraging people to ask permission before snapping a pic of someone. 

My husband and I are white working-class people and watched Bell’s special this weekend, too. We laughed our asses off and didn’t find anything to take offense at. Maybe because we’re not the people Bell pokes fun at?

Let’s say all of that is true — does it make it okay to vote for the guy putting toddlers in jail?

Seriously. It’s like so many of them get their opinions from 8 hour “WHY ____ SUCKS” Youtube videos.
