Watching this as a European, it's wild how blatantly hard this "news" anchor repeatedly tries to twist the guys words to make him sound like he's saying something he's not.

Like the guy's being perfectly reasonable in almost every point:

• We're all paying taxes for healthcare benefits, why are we not all getting access to them?

• The US treats illegal immigration with a bizare level of criminality. Unless there's violence involved, then its a civil matrer, so why are militarised bloodthirsty hounds being set upon these people?

• Speaking of which... ICE are litterally going around in masks, racially profiling and detaining and killing US citizens. Why are they not being held to account?

It actually makes me happy to see that anchor squirm when the guy brought up Donald Trump being a pedo and the pushing under the rug of the Epstein files.

Oliver should practice emoting in front of the camera a bit more. His arguments have the sauce, but his delivery is completely sauceless. He needs to use his face better.

That host is an absolute fucking tool.

What's the time stamp

Oh shit, the time just evaporated when Donnies child fucking got air time.

He's doing great. It's hard to stay focussed under that sort of bullshit cascade. Definitely better at the start, when he mostly ignored the dead cats and just stated what the DSA's extremely popular and easy to sell policies are.

Hehe. Just got to the fun part. That is great. Talk about an unforced error. 😄

That was great, he held his own really well

THINK of the CHILDREN!

Do you mean the children...

• Raped by the current president?

• Bombed in Iran, on orders from the president?

• Now starving in the US because of programs cut by the immigrant appointed by the president?

Oh, the Administration in the US definitely think of the children...

It's Fix news, I'd prefer a few more layers of abstraction if possible.

while being repeatedly interrupted and ridiculed.

That's their entire m.o. Ask a question then talk over them loudly the whole time.

Also it's a little too graphic when referring to pedophilia.

Yes. Haven't you seen the election results?

It's Fox, literally the only people who watch it are the Maga. Unfortunately that's too many of us still so yes, we really are this stupid

As an American: yes. Unfortunately, yes.

Are Americans really this stupid?

For the most part, yes.

Yes.

he is an extremely biased news host.

also sweaty. didn't know i could see sweaty people out of 3rd person shooters.

You don't have to be a member of the LGBTQ+ to suck dick btw.

I understand what you're trying to say, but I also think people understand what OP is trying to say

Nothing. It's an attempt to associate LGBTQ people with something for which we already have strong negative emotions in order to make/keep them the Source of All That Is Bad, around which simple minded voters can be rallied.

Furthermore, it can be used to derail legitimate discourse. You're forced into a defensive position when interviewed and asked "why are you defending a pedophile" and your first response needs to be "LGBTQ is not the same as pedophilia". There's an immediate ick, even though it's 100% correct.

I may just be desensitized but i read it more like the way you would read "shit eating pedophiles" as in it's more of a general insult than a literal dick sucking nonce

Or it's a parallel to the dicksucking these " " " " News " " " (quotations for emphasis of their distance to actual journalism) channels do for their nonce filled political class
