@Donald Sneed - this is more than simple comedy. The issues that Amber talks about have been going on for so long now that they are hardly a laughing matter. We want these things to be known, understood, seen for the sham that they are, and updated to reflect modern society rather than the 1930s. It’s time.
These are assertions. Not facts. You learned literally nothing. You heard things. And had to suffer through some absolutely torturing cringe to get those divisive assertions.
It's sad that comedians have had to take on the mantle of the press. We're thankful, of course, that you're doing it. Thanks for keeping it real, Amber!
I was once casually asked if I wanted the new employee to be a man or a woman and my reply was; I don't care, the most capable person should get the job. if an octopus was the best choice then go for an octopus. the same applies here, her gender doesn't matter at all in her chosen field of work but she's excellent so people shouldn't oppose her for no reason at all.
@@benzaiten933 An octopus would probably be excellent at multi-tasking, but I would definitely question their knowledge about medicine if they were to be appointed Secretary of Health.
Every single “how did we get here” segment is impeccable. Some of the strongest writing of this type I see. Similar in some ways to Last Week Tonight style arguments but honestly sharper and with better delivery. Amber Ruffin and her team are making something really special
It’s honestly like the thoughts and feelings so many of us feel but can’t quite put into words explained so perfectly. I really really wish the people who need to see this content the most would see it. It’s such an important conversation.
Thank you so much for defending trans people in this piece, nowhere near enough mainstream shows have talked about what we face and you did a great job ❤️
She also defended trans people in her segment on that Utah school that ended their reading program because a book mentioned a transgender boy (if I’m not mistaken).
@@marmac7619 No matter how much I dislike CAITLYN Jenner, it is WRONG to deadname a person. Her politics are awful but her name is Caitlyn. Stop being an a$$.
you know its kind of ironic because green eggs and ham's message is about someone who is afraid to try things and assumed he won't like them and goes to extremes to avoid it... but once he tries green eggs and ham it ends up being delicious and great and he wonders why he avoided it for so long.
Brecklyn, there may be more then you know❣️I don’t understand everything about transgender people, but I care enough to try. I watch this show called, Big Sky, and there is a Beautiful transgender person on there. I love her❣️Her character is very sweet & gentle 💗. But she can be a BadAss too! I see it in this world, you got to do you! So if that’s you, it ok! 😊
THANK. YOU for acknowledging the trans struggle that's been worse ever since Trump. Thank you for seeing us & understanding it's part of white supremacy/colonialism✨
It is so heartening and amazing to me that this kind of no punches pulled uncomfortable conversations are being had on a major network now. Let's keep the conversation going.
outstanding breakdown of the situation. thank you Amber. it is sad that we still have to talk about these subjects and explain once again what is up. maybe one day it will not be needed.
...irony... ...saying that people are trying to "cancel" Dr. Suess and his books...when it's literally a couple of books out of a hundred...and then read from one of the books THAT AREN'T BEING CANCELLED...
Also, leaving up the picture of Leonidas Dyer (of whom i had never heard) while you described the unspeakable history of anti-lynching bills, confused me, so i Wikipedia-ed him - and he was a hero in many ways, and should be celebrated for his progressive political agenda. i wonder if anyone else needed that clarification...
You don't want to know what we are described in when we use the words "kitchen" and "pocketbook" here in the South. My husband is the only one allowed in either one of those.
Didn't think Joffrey would be shocked at rand paul's brand of evil then again, didn't think 2020 would unleash a nightmarish dystopia upon the nation and beyond but nonetheless, a spectacular analysis by Amber.
I hadn't made the connection before, but the January 6th insurrection does sound like T**** tried to imitate Cersei's destruction of the Great Sept. If he'd had a big stash of wildfire, he might have succeeded!
Actions speak louder than words, but words have the power to influence people to take said actions. What you say matters. Thank you Amber for all your “How Did We Get Here” segments.💜💖
This video brought me to tears thank you so much. You touched upon so many topics that need to be talked about! Comcast is an amazing company(noticing that this is on Peacock!👐🏾) This is real news!!! Thank you!
This show speaks so much truth that I forget that it’s a comedy show. I get my laughs but I get a full service of deep thinking to go with it…honesty and resolve is what I get.
This was GENIUS! I want your autograph. I don’t have any but I want yours, AMBER RUFFIN❣️❣️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 You are amazing I love you. Nice braids 😁 your hair is gettin long!
During the pandemic our representatives have also been trying to undo end to end encryption again. Every time we're even slightly distracted they start trying to do that.

I F'ING love watching Amber. So intelligent and teaches me something EVERY TIME. Thanks Amber and writers!
Yep still learning with Amber
Sadly though, y'all ain't the ones who need to hear this stuff...
Can't adequately express how much I appreciate you, Amber
Here here! 🍻
I’m sorry you can’t express that adequately. 😔
Yeah I wonder why it took them this long to give her a show ... oh wait, no I don't. 🤨🤔🧐✊🏿
This
No Doubt!!! 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾👸🏾🦁🇳🇬🇺🇸
It’s so crazy that I learn more from a comedy show than the “news”. Amber Ruffin is so insightful. Truly thankful for her ❤️
Y? U have a small computer in your pocket, u can look up anything you want...btw I luv her too❤❤

I keep having to do a double take. He looks like Rick Astley (side-eye).

Comedians have always had the job of speaking truth to power.
Gotta say Levine did an absolutely exceptional job for the people of Pennsylvania despite the insane opposition from the PA Senate.
Agreed! She was one of the best people leading PA through this time

Very well put. 100% agree

If only Congress was allowed to raise an objection of “relevance” like the judiciary we would be in a lot better place.
There is, a participant or ex-officio can "call for orders of the day"
Jim Jordan would never be able to speak again
I would be hollering the old Perry Mason mantra, "incompetent, irrelevant, and immaterial," every day.
The "How did we get here(s)" are cathartic and should be necessary viewings for all US citizens.
It’s honestly like the thoughts and feelings so many of us feel but can’t quite put into words explained so perfectly. I really really wish the people who need to see this content the most would see it. It’s such an important conversation.
The "people" who need to see it are too busy giving it a thumbs down.
There’s an award of high regard in Amber’s future. I’m certain of it. Amazing! 👍🏻
Thank you so much for defending trans people in this piece, nowhere near enough mainstream shows have talked about what we face and you did a great job ❤️
And bruce jenner has really done a major disservice to ALL Trans People! I am so sorry for YOU!!!

Amber is definitely a great ally!

Republicans use it, but they didn't get past the first "I do not like it."
Amber is truly a national treasure.
Amber's show hits different. She is really her stride right now.
I am going to watch her and suggest her to all my friends
No Doubt! 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾👸🏾🦁🇳🇬🇺🇸
Very well said! Resisting change is all about maintaining power!
Your message is always clear and concise and you open my eyes some every week.
Thank you for defending us Amber, I'm transgender myself. So few people care about us.
Brecklyn, there may be more then you know❣️I don’t understand everything about transgender people, but I care enough to try.
I watch this show called, Big Sky, and there is a Beautiful transgender person on there.
I love her❣️Her character is very sweet & gentle 💗. But she can be a BadAss too!
I see it in this world, you got to do you!
So if that’s you, it ok! 😊
Bless you my dear. Have a fulfilling and happy life.😊👍🏾
Sending love and power to you and all other trans folks!
You are loved & you MATTER, @Brecklyn! Sending virtual hugs to you, so you KNOW💗.
You stay safe out there, always keep yourself in the best of health both mentally and physically.
Yoooooooooooooo! The hot comb joke tho? 🤣
I had to run that back! 🤣
I loved it. Yes! I was so here for that one.
History teachers should play "How did we get here?" clips in class!
Absolutely agree
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💯💯 Yes!!!
Amber Academy
That would be great because it's educational and entertaining.
Not a terrible idea. A better one would be to abolish compulsory schooling 😁
Another wonderfully designed history lesson! Bravo!!!
I think this is the closest I have seen Amber come to being furious.
These are the nicest comments I've ever seen on RUclips!!! A real testiment to the hearts and minds of people that Amber speaks to 💕💕💕💕
Not just a comedian, but also an elite social philosopher! So glad I found your show Amber.
That was 7 1/2 minutes of EXCELLENCE, Amber!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
At this point, I think we can admit the "culture war" is a slow-motion civil war.
I'm stealing "raisins-in-the potato-salad terrible," but I'll credit you, of course.
SNL Tichalla Jeopardy sketch.
Raisins in most things are awful. Like stuffing. Why would anyone do something so horrible to things we all love?
Those aren't actually raisins.
How 'bout blueberries in the potato salad then?
It’s a Dorothy Parker reference - ‘This wasn't just plain terrible, this was fancy terrible. This was terrible with raisins in it.’
Preach!!
Amber and crew thank you for laying plain and bare the ongoing EVIL of the culture wars with humor no less! - OUTSTANDING episode!
This show does not hold back, and I love it!
Thank you Amber for the clarity!
PA loves Dr. Levine 🙌🏻
THANK. YOU for acknowledging the trans struggle that's been worse ever since Trump. Thank you for seeing us & understanding it's part of white supremacy/colonialism✨
“Stay out of my kitchen until you learn how to use a hot comb” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It is so heartening and amazing to me that this kind of no punches pulled uncomfortable conversations are being had on a major network now. Let's keep the conversation going.
You a re doing some great edutainment over there, Ms. Amber
They don’t believe different cultures can co-exist. They are so tyrannical. The cruelty is beyond any defense.
Thank you so much for this!
You are the best!!
outstanding breakdown of the situation. thank you Amber. it is sad that we still have to talk about these subjects and explain once again what is up. maybe one day it will not be needed.
...irony...
...saying that people are trying to "cancel" Dr. Suess and his books...when it's literally a couple of books out of a hundred...and then read from one of the books THAT AREN'T BEING CANCELLED...
I wish I could give more than one little thumbs-up
Same here!
You can ring that subscriber bell & share video to others so they can fall in love with it too
Also, leaving up the picture of Leonidas Dyer (of whom i had never heard) while you described the unspeakable history of anti-lynching bills, confused me, so i Wikipedia-ed him - and he was a hero in many ways, and should be celebrated for his progressive political agenda. i wonder if anyone else needed that clarification...
I wasn't confused.
If senator Rand Paul is so upset about being circumcised he should take that up with his parents, not trans-persons
I LOVE YOU AMBER RUFFIN AND THE AMBER RUFFIN SHOW!!!
Oh.. so.. that's not just the average Republican's reading level? Neat.
Green Eggs and Ham is a few grades above-average for them.
No, that's just what Matt Gaetz reads to his girlfriend everynight
I thought that was the only book they own.
Well, I bet R. P. couldn't handle _Fox in Socks._
They like democracy until they're losing... smh
Amber...bubbie...it isn't bc they are terrible (they are, make no mistake). It is bc they are terrified. A changing world frightens the unenlightened.
There's empirical data to back this up. Check out "affect displacement theory".
Well and history.
People who think they are enlightened are anything but.
@@BlazingOwnager dude i'm so woke i went back to sleep xD
Even worse than the unenlightened are the cynical opportunists who actually know better but are just pandering to their base.
Amber: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! x1000
You just summed up the nakedness of the modern GOP and it's 400 year ancestry in 7 minutes.
Because it was Republicans in the south trying to keep their slaves?
@@naughtynat82 that was Lincoln's party, not the one today. You know this
@@naughtynat82 note my usage of the term ancestry. Details count! 😉
Kudos to you, Amber! You are brilliant!!
You are brilliant. I wish your message reached more people.
They won't talk about domestic terrorism because without it the pubs wouldnt have a party.
You don't want to know what we are described in when we use the words "kitchen" and "pocketbook" here in the South. My husband is the only one allowed in either one of those.

Oh, when did you start caring what the WHO says, Rand?
YES!!!
Actions speak louder than words, but words have the power to influence people to take said actions. What you say matters. Thank you Amber for all your “How Did We Get Here” segments.💜💖

Yes she is!!! Who does not love her??
lol 😂 hotcomb joke was great
💯💯💯💯🤣
Crying 🤣
watch the last ep of LWT w/John Oliver for a detailed debrief of that joke 😂
I'm a 40-year-old white man and I got the kitchen joke. Don't ask me why or how.
Great video! Thanks!
I adore you, Amber!
Sooo well done! Explaining and entertaining.
MASTER. CLASS. this is how it's done.
I learn more here than any other channel. Thank you
you're right. this is beyond racism. love your segments, amber! I learn so much.
s/n we need an anti lynching bill in the US.
Awesome Amber
psychological warfare. thank you for this spin off. really digging your show.
Sorry Amber. I'm middle-aged and white... but I do understand the joke. I love the show, Amber! You're very refreshing.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! NEW AMBER!!!!!
That Paul family has bizarre obsessions.
Why does my state keep electing Ran Paul?🙄
We love you Amber!
Simple braids -- can't go wrong.
She looks super cute! 🥰
she looks like woodys girlfriend from toy story
I will accept that my place will NEVER be to understand how to use a hot comb... But that joke was spot on 🎯 I can't pretend I didn't understand it 😉
ALL the SAME 💜
Ooh, those Marcelled waves though 🔥
This was GENIUS! I want your autograph. I don’t have any but I want yours, AMBER RUFFIN❣️❣️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 You are amazing I love you. Nice braids 😁 your hair is gettin long!
Amber for Congress !!
Yes , She HaS My VOTE

Breaking it down! Yes! Thank you for all you do Amber!
Love you Amber.
You're one articulate story teller that tells it like it is! Love your channel 💗
The kitchen joke was like next level hilarious.
Sooooo the substance is great but I’m obsessed with Amber’s hair. Braids that let hair be hair and not beaten into submission to be smooth.
Nothing motivates like the truth. Preach sistah!
This is so well done
That was my Birthday segment this year. Thank you Amber, and crew for what you do. It is a breath of fresh air in a sea of farts.
I love you thank you Amber!
Amber goes full on Pipi Longstockings lol. You're Rocking it!
For a group that really doesn't like change, they really seem to like Green Eggs and Ham, which ends with him trying something new and liking it
You go gurl!!!! Well said
Blessing me each morning with wisdom 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
