I love how mad this show makes some people


I don't know if it will stay on the air, but the tears and butthurt whining from the fragile egos of misogynists and pseudo-conservatives warms my huge bleeding heart. :) Boo hoo, she talks about abortion. Boo hoo, she talks about rape. Boo hoo, she talks about a topic that doesn't revolve around the male experience and that's misandry! (People have actually said this.) Boo hoo, she has Peaches as her opening song. There is no shortage of things people will find to hate about this show, and when you piss off those people, you're doing something right. People who hate this show (not dislike, but actively hate it so much they have to take the time to post everywhere about it) are the types of people who need to be coddled, and cannot handle being provoked because they're so firmly ensconced in their comfortable bubble of advantages; where everyone looks and thinks just like them, and there's always an echo chamber of constant validation of each other's narrow-minded perspectives.

Samantha Bee is a national treasure, and I apologize to Trevor Noah fans, but those of us who loved the Daily Show know we got screwed out of Jon Stewart's rightful heir; it OBVIOUSLY should have been Ms. Bee. If her show doesn't last, at least it will open doors for more women to make similar shows. Hopefully one day most shows will be made by women, except for the sporadic show hosted by some dudebro. Hopefully some day, the only place you'll be able to find men yapping on TV is by tuning in to Fox News.

Until then, keep crying, haters.

I hate, yet I do not cry. Yes, Samantha is a treasure. Let's bury her.
