dear ECHELON, please file the preceding under bizarro's file, not mine, thank you. i don't even know who this guy is.

if you don't even know who milo is why are you so eager to assassinate him?

seriously this shit is about as "funny" as going up to a tsa agent and telling him your friend has a bomb.

Yeah, guys, we're living in a 'hey journalist who posted a sarcastic and easily-disproven tweet about voter fraud, you're under investigation by the FBI' world now. Let's exercise discretion.

thank you.

I think violence is v wrong except when it's tactically necessary tbh

ha what a sniveling coward

wow really

the brett gelman interview linked from there is pretty good! http://splitsider.com/2016/11/brett-gelman-explains-his-decision-to-cut-ties-with-adult-swim/

feel like this whole experience is not going to moderate hyde's ideology

hyde fretting that he can't afford life insurance after all his rah-rah pro trump stuff is some sad irony

Kinda lol but mostly lmao

oh milo is harmless, he's a wannabe sacha baron cohen. he's a stand-up, but he tours college lecture halls instead of clubs

- flappy bird

Fuck milo yiannnnopoloushdhhdhs and sacha baron cohen

Like for real, we dont need gallows humor coming from a position of extreme privilege, bile, and resentment of downtrodden folks trying to advocate for themselves.

Goes without saying that milo is infinitely worse than cohen but insofar as they are similar -- snobs trolling the hoi poloi (sp?) -- he sucks too

googling "tucker carlson adam schiff" basically makes it clear that rational discourse is completely dead

What has Cohen done wrong? I don't like some of the ways he pranked people but what has he done comparable to a booster of extremists?

like, I watched it, and it's quite clear that Tucker moves the goalposts and then throws a huge tantrum, and Schiff takes it calmly at first, and then points out that Tucker is no better than a Kremlin shill working for RT. Almost all the headlines in search results talk about how Tucker DESTROYED Schiff, which I guess is an accurate depiction for a particular type of person I have no interest in ever talking to, in any context.

xp. he's an upper class christ's college graduate whose comedy has mainly been based on making fun of poors, e.g. borat and bruno were about showing how bigoted and stupid american white poors are, the brothers grimsby is vile, prole-bashing crap.

Noting rag xp, just wanted to go after the premises of flappy birds defense of this milo character

Yeah good summary jim. Not comparable to promoting fascism, but still morally abominable

borat and bruno were about showing how bigoted and stupid american white poors are

Not poors - he was mocking Trump voters

But doing it through the medium of racist caricatures -- ali g and borat

Brothers Grimsby was just out and out horrible no matter how it was viewed.

oh good, ilx is piling on that fucking loathsome cunt baron cohen. continue

cultureless gurning cretin

nobody cares about sbc, jfc

lol do I need to direct you to the Borat thread

ok maybe nobody cares about him ANYMORE but man at the time...

yeah for example

Dan were you previously unaware that fratboys are stupid or something

Tbt yaaaaass

the thing is that there has been many attempts to control alt-right but everytime it was tried everything just went sideways.

to the right workspace, lol

control alt-delete much more useful

read most of it, it seems like their feelings got hurt

I guess that piece was meant to be a plea for sympathy? Except in actuality it succeeded in confirming, without requiring any prior knowledge of the man, that Sam Hyde is a megaturd.

didn't get past the opening line of the dailycaller thing tbh

I watched some clips of this out of curiosity. It uses surrealist dystopian wonder showzen aesthetics to add zaniness to sketches that are just vehicles for MRA influenced "social commentary." Some racism thrown about for good measure as well.

Stupid.

I was worried that it was just an irreverent show that had been misinterpreted but nope. Pure poison.

The notion of a right-wing Wonder Showzen really creeps me out. I always admired that show's brazen far-left slant (even if some of the ways it manifested were pretty hard to watch)

Is anyone who's seen this show familiar with Little Britain, an irritatingly popular sketch show in, er, britain a few years back? Just wondered how it compared, if at all

Comments on that Daily Caller piece making a strong case that MDE fans aren't psychotic bigots.

Fuck this show is terrible and hateful - wish I never checked it out

hey maybe Sam Hyde and his cadre of unfunny assholes should you now pull themselves up by their bootstraps and start their own channel. that is if they're not too busy ((()))-ifying everyone or pissing on the graves of dead children at Sandy Hook.

*you know

I think the show had a lot of potential to be a conservative counterpoint on adult swim, but the obsession with gay people / them wearing drag is... hmm... lots of lazy racism, as well. I think the bit with the wine where the guy trips the other guy's wife is a brilliant take on gaslighting. the most compelling parts of MDE's work are the satire of leftist / neoliberal groupthink and mob mentality (I'm thinking specifically of the intro to one of their videos where it's a title card that reads "we went to one of the places in America where all the stupid people are and you're not supposed to go - texas!" with a sneering pic of Jon Stewart in the corner).

"Pure poison" is such a stretch. These guys are from suburban MA. Of course they're not going to understand BLM. Of course they're into nationalism. I don't think they're these cunning racist agents, they're just products of their environment... like the underlying tone of most of their YouTube videos (wburg fashion, wburg comedy nite, etc) is resentment and rage at the arrogance of "the beautiful people." That is a necessary counterpoint to our masturbatory pop culture. But if your audience is harassing and threatening people incessantly and you do very little to stop it, I have no sympathy. It's a shame, the show could've been good and I doubt anything like it will air on AS again anytime soon.

also, Hyde makes a good point in that piece - what is the difference between "Everyone Loves Kikes" (Eric Andre) and "Jews Rock" (MDE)?

absolutely baffling why there aren't more conservative counterpoint shows not riddled with racism, homophobia and misogyny

These guys are from suburban MA. Of course they're not going to understand BLM.

dude just think about this for a minute.

These guys are from suburban MA. Of course they're not going to understand BLM. Of course they're into nationalism. I don't think they're these cunning racist agents, they're just products of their environment.

jesus fucking christ at which point do you stop doing backflips to give straight white assholes a pass

I'm from Alabama do I get to be a useless fuckwit and have a teevee show please
