Icon Of Sin posted:Holy poo poo, I thought he’d died years ago. Last I heard of him was at Senator Inouye’s funeral (over 8 years ago ) This is the last thing I remember Dole doing, which was right about the same time I guess: Wikipedia posted:On December 4, 2012, Dole made an appearance on the Senate floor to advocate ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Democratic Senator John Kerry explained: "Bob Dole is here because he wants to know that other countries will come to treat the disabled as we do." The Senate rejected the treaty by a vote of 61–38, less than the 66 required for ratification. Many Republican senators voted against the bill, fearing it would interfere with American sovereignty.[78]

Acebuckeye13 posted:Colbert was better at playing a character than he is at playing himself is really what it comes down to imo. I'm halfsies on this. On one hand: he was great at being a right-wing foil in the early 2000s, and provided a forum for folks to laugh at right-wing nonsense. On the other hand, the next generation of right-wing motherfuckers internalized his insults and decided to make that a basis of their victimization, which indirectly led to Donald Trump's election and the rise of right-wing fascism. Colbert isn't directly responsible, but his take did lead to where we are now. It isn't his fault any more than it's the fault of Jesus Christ for being the symbol of American Gods n' Guns, but it's certainly worth noticing in the greater context.

Ive never heard of Colbert being used as a rallying cry for the right, and frankly his commentary was so benign that they would've simply found anything else to be outraged by. Colbert is no more responsible for the ascension of Donald Trump than any other entertainer in my mind. Him lampooning the right wing media ecosystem didn't create it.

Are you telling me that the same right wingers who think there are space lasers causing fires and antifa causing power outages and pizza shops hiding email servers saw Colbert’s character and knew it was satire? I don’t think so.

I'm pretty sure conservatives completely lack the ability to understand irony and that most of them actually believed that Colbert was not putting on an act.

I remember Fox News tried to create its own satirical news program to answer Stewart’s Daily Show and it flopped incredibly fast. Like, so unfunny by anyone’s standards. Here’s a promo for it; the Arial font just shows how much effort they put in. https://youtu.be/w3DA5lN1iwI
