      too bad Jon dropped off the face of the earth when his opinion would have mattered most, then came back toward the end of the dark time (2020 election cycle start) and just was another angry old boomer... Even Chappelle going to africa and hiding and later coming back an out of touch transphobe wasn't as damaging to US culture, lol. (But for real fuck Chappelle, especially espousing anti-trans shit in high schools, what a piece of shit he is.)
      Also honestly if Jon never went on Crossfire then CNN may still have Tucker Carlson, which would maybe mean Carlson would still be there and not poisoning US politics with easily disproved, blatant lies, flat out racism, and conspiracy for a decade on that cesspool Fox (not news, they literally said in court Fox wasn't news, its only entertainment)... Fuck Jon, maybe.
      Frankly though I haven't seen a single example of a positive Stewart influence on new comics like Colbert has had. Again, Jon is kind of just a selfish asshole.
      Thank god Ziwe and John Oliver rose above that era and are now in their shoes.
