Quite a freeper who can enjoy Jon Stewart

I saw that right after you ridiculed us older folks who miss when TV was far less political

I’m cursed with a photog memory of freepers giving away how they really are

Just yesterday I had a revelation about someone who always says anti southern stuff

Then one little post was a big tell and all these years of his crappy posts had a root cause

It’s a curse

Better not to notice

Immaculately oblivious

I got nothing against you except Jon Stewart

Stewart had some good moments. One of my kids, in college at the time, would send me segments of his from YouTube that he thought I would like, Stewart is very liberal and Trump basher but he did land a few good shots on Dems.

Every new age cohort thinks that they invented political comedy.

Lenny Bruce waged war with the obscenity laws. And lost.

The Smothers Brothers injected leftwing activism into their act in the late ‘60s and discovered that America wasn’t amused.

Mort Sahl did an overtly political act without being insulting.

George Carlin had political barbs in his act.

The difference in most of these comics was that unlike today’s losers they weren’t mean spirited.
