punk rebel ecks posted:Holy gently caress that Bill Maher and Cornerl West exchange was awful. Maher is such a moron. Actually believing Pence wouldn't be worse than Trump? Thinking it was the "holier than thou" leftists who sat out the election is why Hillary lost rather than Obama rural voters flipping to Trump or people sitting out voting? Holy poo poo. Don't forget Cornell West explaining to that piece of poo poo David Frum (this guy vigorously promoted the Iraq War before the invasion) the CIA's history of overthrowing democratically elected governments for the last seventy years, and that we shouldn't empower them in order to fight Trump. Really, West was dealing with two retards on the panel.

I don't want Maher to get fired. Real Time and GoT are why I subscribe to HBO.

You really think 'lol' means anything other than 'I'm just racist against brown-skinned people' here?

By a white dude shouting about his right to free speech.

Groovelord Neato posted:why did you quote me being right and follow it with lol? i need this explained to me. thanks. Wahhabism/right-wing Islam is arguably the most well financed extremist ideology on this planet, and the American military has been doing their dirty work in the Middle East on behalf of their oil for the last sixty years. Meanwhile, Richard Spencer gets his rear end beat in public by hippies wherever he goes. Forgive me if I find the former more alarming.

coyo7e posted:... Oh I'm sorry you only will accept atrocities formally funded and run by a distinct church? Centrist #36328 (you) cites the crusades as a counter-argument to the issue of 21st century Wahhabism financed by the oil and gas trade. How original and insightful.

PT6A posted:Honestly, I think he hosed himself pretty hard this week -- worse than last week. Yeah, everyone makes a mistake, and he made a big one. But he had a week to think about it, reflect on why the thing he said was so hurtful toward black people, and three different, extremely on-point, intelligent, politically astute black people telling him exactly why what he did was unacceptable, and he hosed it up. At that point, it's no longer just a mistake in the heat of the moment. avatar post combo

Gimmedaroot posted:Bretibart recently lost more than 1000 advertisers. You can't blame that on sensitive snowflakes. Breitbart 'News' is almost fully subsidized by the Mercer family. They dumped $11 million into it a few years back, which is chump change to a family worth over $30 billion. They'll be fine, and it's hilarious watching them imply otherwise. gently caress Breitbart, but I am concerned about corporations - who have enough power and influence already - in general controlling speech and content through advertisers. This really is an extension of the immense problem of corporate media altogether; specifically in their refusal to (accurately) cover the dispossession and material interests of the poor. I like how Bill brought it up.

IRQ posted:It was hilarious to see that little breitbart gremlin claim that corporations were controlling their first amendment right to free speech by choosing not advertise on their lovely website. Entitled much, snowflake? It's always fun to see virulent 'free market' advocates such as O'Reilly and Breitbart News get destroyed by the very system they promote 24/7.
