bionicjoey ( @bionicjoey@lemmy.ca ) 16•5 months agoGoddamn that was good. I had forgotten what an actually good political late night show was like.
UndercoverUlrikHD ( @UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev ) 11•5 months agoNice to see him back, never thought he would return.
1984 ( @1984@lemmy.today ) 7•5 months agoAbsolutely watching this, the man is a legend.

I’m sure I’ve missed some others too.
ComradeSharkfucker ( @sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml ) 5•5 months agoMyanmar Rohingya genocide
delirious_owl ( @delirious_owl@discuss.online ) 2•5 months agoI mean the one thats currently being tried in the ICJ (Palestine)
Amaltheamannen ( @Amaltheamannen@lemmy.ml ) 2•5 months agoWhat China is doing constitutes severe human rights abuses, including arbitrary arrests and reported destruction of shrines and mosques. It includes reported torture and violence, but it’s not a genocide. It’s done under the guise of anti terrorism and anti extremism.

𝕽𝖚𝖆𝖎𝖉𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖌𝖍 ( @sxan@midwest.social ) 2•5 months agoYes. You’re right. It’s pretty close, though, and “genocide” is handier than a drawn-out, nuanced description for which there isn’t a convenient term. Abusing the word “genocide” is little worse than using the extremely broad and easily downplayed “human rights abuses.” The latter is as equally appropriate to US police treatment of minorities as to China’s treatment of the Uyghurs, but you’d agree they’re vastly different in scale and scope, right?
bionicjoey ( @bionicjoey@lemmy.ca ) 5•5 months agoVery briefly, but he says he may cover it in a future episode
blindsight ( @blindsight@beehaw.org ) 5•5 months agoI forgot how short they were. Watched at 2× speed, granted, but it was over in a flash.
Still, it was good. As a Canadian, it will be nice to have a succinct, entertaining summary of America’s descent into fascism. (I’m not feeling very hopeful, can you tell?)
Blahnominous ( @Blahnominous@lemmynsfw.com ) 2•5 months agoThis isn’t the full episode. It’s just his opening monologue. The full episode has more interaction with the news team and an interview.
