Because if poor white&black people are busy blaming each other they won’t blame the Ruling Class who run things.

[@FirestormX9]

yeah Stephen always lets the truly insightful ones talk freely without any speed pressures or random jokes. But it takes time to know someone on that level, and they go with their speed routine as a default with most their guests. One of the reasons why he at times interrupts the guest or only takes a one or two line answer to the questions instead of further explanation is to speed up the segment so as to get more things to talk about. But many people don't see Stephen from this perspective, they find it rude and such.

@@arlom5132 Sure.... but labelling things in black and white by definition ignores reality for ones own convenience. To actually bring people to your side, you have to be willing to understand the nuances of their criticisms and statements, then correct the points where they went astray. I think the real problem lies in the fact that most people don't actually know how to reasonably defend their own positions on either side, because they are dictated by society, rather then determined and learned for ones self. The more you push anything, no matter how evil it seems into a corner and forbid it, you've instantly given it credibility it never deserved.

[@tudeslildude]

@@skierpage ....... okay? The problem isn't labelling the statements as antisemitic, it's labelling the people parroting them as antisemitic. When you do this, you delegitimize the word, when dealing with actual antisemitism. If people were actually doing what you just described it would be fine, but there's a complete lack of the follow up, the only thing that happens is the labelling and shaming. We don't explain to them why they got it wrong, we expel them from society and never let them back in. Peoples interests don't seem to lay in understanding and reconciliation, it lies in demonizing the other side. It's what the right does on abortion and 'wokeness', and the left on stuff like this racism. When you demonize the other person, you don't have any intention of reaching an understanding hand out to convert them, you just want to punish them and move on. This doesn't end up solving anything at the end of the day, and just deepens peoples misguided beliefs.

Wokeism is a social/cultural movement, not an economic one, that many lefties don't agree with. Wokeism just happens to be bundled together with "left-leaning ideas" in this point in time through a reductionist non-nuanced narrative peddled by the mainstream.

[@Prince36300]

@@AdilAmeerPutin I think we are driving towards a similar point. I agree, Jon is firmly on the left and while Id argue the term "lefty" in '22 implies far left social politics, it is probably pointless to get in vocabulary debate. My original point is that most lefties do THINK like Jon. We are just not as represented in social and traditional media because the incentives (attention/conflict=money) favors people and ideas that are extreme, simple, lack any nuance and provoke emotion. Even if you do think like Jon, you are deincentivized to talk this way because of potential backlash and harassment from the other extremist viewpoints. The issue is the medium and political system not the voters themselves.

I believe wholeheartedly that the Twitter mob is well out of hand, but this is entirely different. I think much more harm than good comes from allowing racist nonsense, especially from influential celebrities, to proliferate on social media. Kanye posted antisemitic in the months leading up to the "deathcon 3 on Jewish people" idiocy. I don't recall any "useful conversations" stemming from those earlier tweets being allowed to "air out". And how would those conversations go exactly? Can you even imagine a large-scale civil, productive conversation around racism occurring on Twitter? Oh yeah, I can see it now, a slew of antisemites tweeting back how this conversation has really turned them around. Stewart's take strikes me as foolishly Pollyannaish, especially when you consider that antisemitism is currently on the rise worldwide and people are suffering because of it.

@7:50 his metaphor with a wound and needing to open it up to cleanse it, in the Netherlands we have the saying: "zachte heelmeesters maken stinkende wonden" - "Gentle healers cause stinky wounds" == This proverb is actually a warning that sometimes you have to take firm action right away to solve a problem. If you are too 'soft' in your approach, for example if you take half-measures because you are afraid of getting into fights with others, the situation can only get worse. The problem then "festers" - perhaps unnoticed at first - until it turns out that it has only gotten worse. The healer in this proverb refers to an unqualified physician. Until the nineteenth century, besides doctors, there were also healers: they mainly treated wounds, fractures and growths.

"Jon just consistently nails it. Every time." You mean the cross? Hiyoooo!

[@Wypipo]

It’s as thigh he said “we obviously can’t just tell the goys to shut up when they notice things we don’t want them to…” and a million Jews cried out at once “oy - that Stewart fellow, right again he is with the ideas…”

these two together elevate the show from light night jokes to thought leadership

"We all retreat to our corners of misinformation"......damn I felt that.

[@serin7318]

Metastasizing out of our ever loving minds. Heartbreaking. I am still hoping for us as humans

[@apollolancer78]

And I just learn a new word 'Mestastasizing' I'm gonna be using that for days. Jon really make us reflect what life is truly about.

[@mikeyj.philly]

Regressing to the mean sadly. Natural law is conflict and war. Peaceful coexistence is an agonizing, exhausting and ultimately futile struggle against our very nature. How do we convince people in this day and age to willingly and knowingly take up arms in a losing battle for the sake of only temporary escape? Its a tough sell.

[@checksanity]

@@apollolancer78 Just an FYI: 'Metastasize' is a term that comes from medicine, primarily when talking about cancer. Here Jon used the word both for it's definition--to spread or grow--as well as to evoke a metaphor. That metaphor being: that misinformation is akin to cancer in it how dangerous it is. I'm explaining this because I believe it's important to fully understand how loaded a word may be before using it. I think Jon is the type of comic who is quite purposeful in the words he chooses to use. Plus, using cancer as a metaphor is rather serious, and I think ought to be used sparingly, rather than "using [it] for days." -From a writer (who is 6 months in remission ;) )

i seriously would vote Jon Stewart for presidency

[@ForcesInMotion]

"Blueberry was a rogue committee." "You don't expect to get it from someone named Irving." LMFAO. Still love me some Stewart.

[@jeremybaptiste637]

& that right there is the double standard. We can make fun of Kyrie Irving on national TV and no one blinks an eye " you don't expect to get it from someone named Irving," yet that's precisely what Kyrie was trying to do-discover what his history might be. I guarantee he doesn't know why he has a jewish surname. It's funny to you, not to him. That reality is many of our (black ppl's) agony. I don't think anyone unless they've experienced the same thing can understand what it feels like to have (knowledge) of a limited history and have so many outlets telling you oh, your history is this, or no, your real history is that. It's numbing, especially the older you get. Kyrie is going through those growing pains most of us go through when you really stop and begin questioning these sort of things. Why is he wrong for trying to start dialogue and get answers. He was robbed of that and so were so many of us. And now Jon makes fun of him for having a jewish last name and Kyrie may not even know why. I agree with his other points however, he hightlighted the double standard with that remark.

[@4xElements]

@@jeremybaptiste637 he isnt making fun of kyrie for having that name, he is making a (very good) joke. perhaps you missed the entire point of what the man said

[@eatchas]

@@jeremybaptiste637 It’s always an odd thing when a white person goes, wow your last name is like my family member’s first name! What are the odds, isn’t that interesting? Idk how to casually drop, well yah my ancestor was enslaved by someone with your cousin’s name and now that’s what we call ourselves without feeling like I’m yelling at someone who wants to be friendly.

[@LuiJoD316]

@@jeremybaptiste637 it’s not making fun of Irving it’s a joke to take some tension out of the room. Just like he said Colbert hated Jews. It’s clear that most of what Stewart said was a serious heart felt message with a few moments of levity sprinkled in to cut the tension in the room. I agree with the points you made about how unjust it is for all black people in the USA to have had their past and culture stripped from them. But I think you’re way off on Jon’s intent behind the joke.

[@MackMainSupreme]

This exactly what Jon meant when he said white people don't look at things from a black perspective. White people "it's not making fun of Kyrie Irving", Black people "Yes it is, they're trying 2 destroy the man's character and image because he watched a movie on Amazon Prime, shared the link on his social media, trying 2 educate himself on something black people N this country barely have access 2". Plus the Rothschild's R literally a Jewish banking family so go look it up 4 yourself and think about Y Kanye said what he said.

[@docshaftoe]

I love how quiet the room gets when Jon is speaking. Once he gets into the real conversation, there's no cheering and very little audience noise, only a slightly muted chuckle. When Jon Stewart speaks, people listen.

[@randolphpinkle4482]

I do agree, but that's because he needs long silent pauses to process his thoughts.

[@cjjackson2475]

Jon already has made the jump into changing political tides. When he shares his insights it's so to the bone honest, it's hard to contest it.

[@jaelo2314]

@@randolphpinkle4482 I see his pauses for effect. But it's entertainment either way.

They shut the laugh tracks off when they habe something serious to say.

[@houseofheadphones7691]

Jon Stewart is a national treasure. He's so funny but he's also so thoughtful. It's all about empathy, about seeing things from the other person's point of view. Even when they're wrong, there's a reason people hold to certain beliefs. Having a conversation is the best way to help people see the errors of their ways.

[@juliaconnell]

only one correction - *international* treasure (much love from Aotearoa/New Zealand 🙃)

[@rosehudson2957]

Kanye is not wrong. If 6 people are in a room and you are the 6th person, and 3 out of the 6 are the bosses who happen to the from the same group and racial identify. Then you will say the majority are the bosses. That is what I hear Kanye saying. No where is he inciting hatred or telling lies. Stop picking on these men because you all think black people won't defend each other. Blessed are the peace makers for they shall inherit the Earth.
