As a German I’d like to remind everyone of the fact that „warehouses for a certain group of people to perish in“ don’t have an amazing history of being bought by Amazon. They also don’t tend to turn into malls.
Wilsu Sonnect they turn into museums, to remind people about what happened. But not all visit museums, it seems...
Erebos It’s a shame. People should really visit the medieval prisons of Nürnberg and then go see a concentration camp. To see how far we didn’t come.
The fact that the sheriff added “perish” to his reasons for keeping “those people” locked up indefinitely is the language of fascism right there, and should have no place in any nation...yet here we are, echoing humanity’s worst mistakes
Let's not gloss over the fact that his comments came in the wake of, and were in the context of, a shoplifting case.
As a German, it is truly a bizarre and horrifying spectacle going down across the Atlantic these days. Makes you wanna shake Americans and shout in their face YOU HELPED DEFEAT THE NAZIS WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO BECOME THEM 80 YEARS LATER.
You can actually hear the genuine frustration in John's voice throughout this entire piece, and rightfully so.
must be trying to lie for a living like jhon
ruclips.net/video/QwIU7iUfhow/видео.html
18:30 - there are fine people on both sides
19:30 - and im not talking about the neo nazis and the white supremacists because they should be condemned
entire left cant spend 2 seconds looking up a speech and instead lie every step of the way, if you dont see a problem with such a blatant lie being spread everywhere on the left, including john oliver, than you truly are a sheep.
@@eitansharabi9488 they are just words. What do words even do now. Nothing. His actions are against what these protesters stand for. You call us the sheep when your happy with people who supported this living used band-aid would happily shoot and lock up black people. I see now why right wing idealists use the nazi flag. They are supporting their idols.
Yeah, he's an actor. This is a show. And he is totally spinning the story.
@Ohma Zi-o The irony is we could say the exact same thing about your side. Your racists, pathological liars,. Hypocritical idiots. Not sociopathic though, you not intelligent enough for that.
@@eitansharabi9488 that is a great video for post. For years I've been hearing people spout the lie of Trump defending white nationalists in that speech. You just watched the two time stamps that you made and you can see how full of shit they're whole narrative is. But all these propaganda fed sheeple will never pull their head out of their ass and see that their side can have flaws just like the side they hate
I swear each week I’m like “how can this get worse?” Then I hear a cop propose the idea of literal concentration camps and I’m proved wrong again.
That's America for ya. I'm glad you guys voted out the Orange 💩 because he created an atmosphere where people now think that it's perfectly fine to be open about their Racist views. But America Still has a boat load of issues to fix before they can call themselves the greatest country in the world. Because it definitely hasn't been for decades.
@@zarakikon6352 It never was.
Sincerely,
An American who remembers what we did to those who lived here before us.
@@StellaStarfall I know that it is "just" a computer game, but in Red Dead Redemption 2 there are some missions you are doing for and with an Indian tribe and all of it was just so fucking sad, I didn't even wanna finish the story line. I don't think a game ever has made me cry before and this one managed it twice. And while I was playing the game my mind wandered to all those that died in horrific ways over the course of our human history and I once more started hating what we are and why we can not be better. There is so much pathetic, empathyless trash wandering this planet, you'd wish we just finally blow it all up and call it a day, since, as we are constantly being remembered of by olivers videos, humanity will never change.
@@cracknigr6065 That game was made by a company (Rockstar Games) that, turns out, is an example of the sausage principle: If you love something, never find out how it’s made.

So why say concentration camps.
You have to know you are lying?

You can tell how John gets progressively more angry each week
Hopefully he gives up and goes back to England lol

When things get increasingly worse every week... it's natural to become increasingly angry.
"Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities."

This quote exemplifies the Left and their behavior so very well.

@Marksman King The cops are supposed to be professionals not panicky civilians. Why can mass murderers be taken alive, but not a person who had their kids with them?

Hilarious how terrified the person sounds when she says "We'll be one step closer to government-run healthcare!"
If it wasn't for government-run healthcare, I would be dead (2 brain aneurisms plus appendicitis). And you know what? I didn't even have to wait to be cared for, in contradiction to the Republicans' talking points (proud Canadian)
@@jamesmccarte1609 Hello fellow Canadian! And what you say makes a lot of sense (as it should)--based on my experience, you only wait for insane amounts of time when whatever you have isn't life-threatening, which is annoying if you have a broken arm or a mild concussion, but it's ultimately how it should be.

@@theeviloverlord7168 Wait time actually depends on a lot of factors, for example, the time of day, the time of year, the population of the area you live in.........just like in private health care
It would destroy the industry. at least give people choice.
Conservatives: “protest curfew good”
Also Conservatives: “covid curfew bad”
lmao your comment killed some of my brain cells
It’s not a curfew if it’s last all day and goes in for months.... it’s not even close to the same idiot.
Liberal: gathering is bad due to Covid.
also Liberal: protesting GF no problem.
@WolframaticAlpha Just a bit?
Just the classic double-standard. They also want to have their cake and eat it too. We want to fix man-made climate change, but we want our coal too... "But you can't have it both ways..." "But I WANT it!" ....
Everyone just overlooking the fact that the sheriff of Kenosha literally ADVOCATED FOR EUGENICS
I was thinking the same thing. Everyone is focused on the RNC. How is this man still sheriff??
Don't forget he also advocated for concentration / death camps... again...
I could somehow see Hitler's face being promoted as a weird positive soon. They are being that blunt with it
And then said after they die we can sell the warehouses to Amazon! Wtf
Lol, so hysterical. What's wrong in sending away people who destroy our nations? People who can't take responsibility, respect our cornerstones/laws? People who time and time again destroy for themselves, others, communities, and the country? But no, apparently the "EUGENICS" is the scary boogieman to look out for. Laughable.
that sheriff was actually talking about putting black people in boxes to prevent them from having children. wow
And for our next gameshow. "Fascist rally or Republican Convention!?" "The best has yet to come". Was this phrase uttered at A) Republican Convention 2020 or B) Nazi rally 1935. You have 30 seconds to answer from...Now.
Ethnic cleansing is a very effective strategy against ethnic differences. Ask China.
Fear of 'these people". This is not new and instigators on both sides will only make matters worse.
That clip made me realize something: Prisons in America are awfully close to the concentration camps of WWII...
Yes. Shocking. That sheriff needs to be fired.
What the hell happened to t his country that allows a sheriff to casually advocate for concentration camps and still keep their jobs
Sheriffs are publicly voted in through an election. :/
So they get to play on people's fears of crime to stay in power.
The problem is nothing happened, this is business as usual since America’s inception. Thing need to happen to make this shit stop, but given an entire political wing is predicated on ramping it up, and the other is about co-opting it and changing as little as possible whilst paying lip-service to change, it needs to come from the people.
The system won’t save anyone, the system is the problem. General strikes would be a good place to start!
❤️
@@Halokon woah
What do you mean by "happened". It has always been this way.
You mean the country that has a Constitution that codifies slavery and returning escaped slaves to their owners, which would have been one of the roles of police. That country?
Im surprised the Kenosha sheriff didn't call his solution "The Final Solution". 🙄
Fun fact, Hitler got that name from the US.
@@hedgehog3180 Of course he did 🤦♀️
They also got their anti-Jewish Segregationist laws from us... Glad we're inspiring the right virtues for the next generations...

“We have to get rid of this group of people” this is alarming
Dylan James Until you became one of them
Dylan James thats how fascists think dude
What is even more alarming is the possibility that this group of people will NOT be gotten rid of! We must do it NOW!
camps ;)
"This group of people" Yeah, violent criminals and get rid of them with jails. I know, horrific that anyone face the normal consequences of criminal actions in 2020.
John Oliver is getting steadily more and more angry each episode
Me too
Blake would still be alive if he just obeyed the police. Way to leave that fact out.
How could he not be?
I once aspired to visit America the beautiful,now,I feel way more free and safe in a post apartheid country that is South Africa
look at the country, if you're not more and more angry each week, somethings wrong with you
Scrantonman95 he is still alive, ass.
"The best is yet to come" is a weird thing to say after having held office for 4 years.
The fact that a cop said that confidently in public says everything you need to know about the institution of the police.
He spoke whimsically and said something kinda stupid.
Who the hell cares.
That Kenosha Sheriff really seems to be looking for a "final solution"
cough 1940s cough
He would certainly look the other way
Sad how fascism is echoing throughout our country and how many Americans are rallying behind it because they cannot define it.
"When they whither away, we will convert the buildings."
@Ebony Panther,
Holy shit
You know you're an extremist when you end up calling a moderate "radical".
Recipe for success in our system:
Radicalise, call the other side radical and yourself moderate. Ignore the politics of the rest of the world and push an America = world view. Call everyone who doesn't agree with you a liar and once enough people believe you there'll be at least one news network that will do it for you to make money off of it.
@Invert Your Cross I love how his point flew a mile above your head XD
Invert Your Cross i disagree and think none of us are political scientist but I wont argue as you asked
@Invert Your Cross ah another person who doesn’t know how political positions/ideologies work
@Invert Your Cross Hiya! I'm not sure if you've heard of the Overton window, but it's a really fascinating bit of political theory that explains why some things seem moderate to a particular group at certain times in history and others don't. If anyone to the left of you seems "radical", up to and including the incredibly centrist Joe Biden, it may be beneficial to actually explore what those people are saying. Even if it is just an exercise in reaffirming your own beliefs, it can be very enlightening!
Regan: *makes fun of soviets for shooting people who disobey curfew*
Republican: *shoots people who disobey curfew*
no he shot someone attacking him stop being an npc
It's like how when 1984 came out the US claimed it was about the Soviet Union, but the Soviet Union claimed it was about the US when the author had just made it up. A totalitarian and oppressive dictatorship is the same, doesn't matter the propaganda it wears
Trump: announces having the China virus on the anniversary of the formation of the Chinese communist party
Patrick Star sounds like he’s a fan of the party he made it a special day indeed
1000000000 views stupid npcs shouldn’t wander aimlessly into dangerous territory
10:15 - So the people who got shot were breaking curfew, but the 17 year old doing the shooting was not violating curfew?
To be fair, Kyle claimed it was self-defense. I wasn't there so I can't really comment on if he was lying, and i wasn't present during the trial. But, If it truly was self defense then justice has prevailed and I want to believe in that.
However he still was out past curfew and I feel that should be best addressed in another case.
@@n8zog584 did you not watch the footage?
He claimed self defense but was a weak claim because he is very clearly in the wrong. He only won the trial because that judge did everything short of kiss him on the cheek and call him a good boy
@@faye626 if shooting people who attacks you isn't self defense, then self defense doesn't exist. That's why Republicans dived on this issue so hard, and that's why it won in the courts. If Kyle wasn't armed he would have had his brains stomped out by a schizophrenic just for showing up with the wrong opinions. The only way to nail him with anything would have been to prove he knew his mere presence would create a self defense situation, and establish some sort of premeditation based on "duty to retreat" or something along those lines. But the prosecutor was a clown, who tried every specious argument he could except what I just outlined.
@@leethax100 the schizophrenic threw a plastic bag at him so he resorted to gun violence
The second victim, having known that rittenhouse was armed and dangerous (considering he just shot and killed an unarmed man over an empty bag) was attempting to disarm the threat
Yea rittenhouse reacted in self defense to someone who was trying to disarm the threat. Gun violence was a gross over reaction
US, you desperatly need more than 2 parties.
Technically we do, but not enough people vote for any of the so-called 'third parties' (there are several of them).
No. It desperately needs to purge itself of the racists and fascists that have taken over the GOP
Oh we do have more than 2 parties. However the two parties hold all the power in terms of elections. We have the two major of Republican and Democrat then we have several smaller parties such as the Libertarian party, the Green Party etc. But not enough people cast their vote for a third party candidate because their odds of winning are beyond slim to none.
Every election we’re told “this is the most important election of our lifetime” and “now isn’t the time to vote third party.”
Well when the fuck is it then?
@@Kleineganz You need ranked-choice voting in every state so ppl can safely vote for their nr. 1 choice and not feel like it is a wasted vote.
Oh no. Environmentalism and healthcare. The HORROR.
😂😂
Don’t forget women who can think for themselves!!! How awful!
It’s my right to live like shit and be in debt to own the libs
Well I mean truly, how much clean air do we really need to survive?
A healthy planet and healthy Americans?? How disturbing.
This is the first episode in this wonderful show's life where I've seen John angry to the point of having to stop filming. This is one of the most powerful episodes of non-fiction TV I've ever seen. If only it were watched by all sides of politics.
You should watch the one about child separation at the border. He's basically crying at the end its so powerful.
He is an actor.
It's all fake dude.
Dude: Talks about Covid in the past tense
January 2021: Hello, we are now at 400,000 deaths
February 2021: hold my beer
March now and it's over 500.000 ! And America has T**** and his enabling Republican suckups to thank for that.
June 2021: 600k
September 2021: 757k deaths. I thought Biden would know how to spot these deaths by now. Nearly a year in office and death rates and covid is still about with more covid shots on the raise with booster shots
June 2022: over 1 million
That sheriff does Sound Like 1940s Germany, as a German I can say that.
The difference is, in 2020 Germany he would not be in Law Enforcement, but facing trial.
Always those Germans in the commentary section pretending Germany was the stronghold against fascism nowadays... It is not. Nazis in the military, Nazis in the Bundestag and this weekend even on the steps of the Reichstag... unhindered, while left protests are always forcefully attacked by police. "Nichts gewusst, 'ne schlechte Tarnung".
Operation Paper Clip relocated those actual Nazis to american Universities, founded NASA and gave many new identities.
some had towns named after them, were given a job as the mayor etc.
Wow. Look to your own house, Fritz. And maybe come to an honest reckoning with your own nation's history.
@@mtLarN nazis in the military - is bad, i agree with you on that and should be investigated and dealt with. same with the police force.
nazis in the bundestag - depends who you meant. the afd? altough i dislike them they were voted in. we're a democracy so as long as the party doesn't fuck up hard enough to get banned they deserve their seats.
nazis on the steps of the reichtag - if you're talking about the protests, they were allowed. i don't think they should have been because of corona but we have demonstrationsrecht, versammlungs- und meinungsfreiheit and they were approved.
we will always have to fight against fascism and be vigilant.
learn from the past. never forget it. never get complacent.
J.-H. M. i think the point was not that germany is magically immune to fascism today, but rather that there are laws which forbid revival of Nazi ideology ("Wiederbetätigung"). like at least there is laws against this ideology as opposed to america. again, no one is saying there isn't Nazis in germany today, or that germany has no anti-racist work to do ...
Did that sherif just casually suggest genocide? Really?!
Its been weeks that Burn Loot Murder cultists wants to put White right wingers people in "CAmps" to re-educate them or even kill them all.
And its the SHerif statement thats ticks you off?...
He did!
I'm from austria and that guy seemed like he and hitler would've gotten on really well.............. i am disgusted by america, they helped save europe from hitler and his ideology, only to succumb to the same shit 70 years later... y'all need reforms... more checks and balances... and we all need to continue fighting fascism and populism... yeah they are easy to elect but they're so hard to get rid of once they show their true face... America shouldnt be repeating germany's mistakes, especially not after the US fought hard to rid europe of this evil... the soldiers who fell fighting the cancer that spread through central europe are surely turning in their graves...
He didnt suggest genocide he suggested people who cross a certain threshold of crime should be put away forever so basically a really really long death penalty, that includes the 60% of white meth head people in Wisconsin prisons too. He basically said “if youre a criminal were gonna kill you...by locking you away in a warehouse for 100 years” which is still outrageous but to say he is referring to genocide is a ridiculous stretch.
@@Mugthraka Lmao, please stop. The Sheriff is in a position of power, some rando who associates with BLM is not. Stop being so afraid of nothing.
Larry Kudlow saying that the pandemic is over OVER A VIDEO FEED cracked me up! Why aren't you there in person then Lar?
The main part of covid was over though right?
If you give the man some leniency you might have a more normal response.
America is living in such a dystopian state. It’s so hard to believe this is happening, but it is.
This is true, and it makes me so scared
No, ur being lied to.
I feel like John Oliver has been talking faster and faster due to his rage just building
And there is so much to talk about he needs to be fast to get his point across
Or because there's so much crap to cover he has to talk faster and faster to get through it all in the time allotted.
And I’m commenting more and more because of the race building in me with these dumbasses defending shooters
I feel like he needs to talk fast simply because there is literally 10 other stories occurring while he is doing his show.
Yeah I got that too. He had a lot to say though.
"Had they not been out after curfew" is the "what was she wearing" of the current situation.
Thank you cuz you can turn their entire argument in the other direction
So true
The kid who shot those folks was out after curfew too...
nailed it
KOK0100 you do realize that at least one of them had a gun right? There was even footage of the guy he shot in the bicep with a gun to his head execution style and he didn’t shoot until he heard someone behind him fire a shot while he was running away and he turned around
11:38 I am German and he is literally describing the holocaust
Yeah. Americans agree. Most just haven’t seen the video yet
This aged horribly. Rittenhouse's prosecutor keeps embarrassing themselves.
Yeah dude
I genuinely prefer john Oliver without the audience
Philbert Christian I’ve been thinking this more and more with each passing week.
I prefer the audience without John Oliver.
@@tinglelovesyou4296 I think many of them are dead by now as they were recorded long ago. Not sure, probably the crowd noises are of vastly different ages
I certainly think the lack of an audience is an asset to the show these days, when the sheer severity of the stories he’s covering is so much higher than it has been previously. It lends focus to the topic at hand, and helps shape the tone of what he says. I remember noticing in the first quarantined episode that when delivering a joke, the feeling it conveys is of a very different breed if there’s no audience laughter
Yeah I noticed that too these past couple of months
“‘The best is yet to come’ is sounding less like a promise and more like a f**king threat.”
so i take it the great orange leader couldn't even fulfill its promises in 4 years god knows it sure would in 8 tho!
LOL!!! BE CAREFUL WHAT WE WISH FOR.
Well fucking said, Oliver. Absolutely spot on.
I think it was a threat. It was the RNC...
Truth
I got an aneurysm, listening to that "Sheriff". Good lord.
I know right, holy shit.
1 year on and the verdict is not guilty
"these people" "this generation" "they" he's being very careful not to say which group he wants to systematically imprison and murder in concentration camps but it's,, it's honestly very unsettling
He seems fine with the deliberate exclusion of nuance if only there was a word for that
Doesn't matter what group he is talking about. That shit is grounds to be removed from office, and given a nice 9x9 padded room that he must never leave
I want to agree... if i could read this sentence
No. You are just reading and racism when it’s not there like the left always does
@@jessejive117 why is every right-winger's response always just a wordy version of "no u, I'm covering my ears lalala"
"Jesus deserved to be nailed on the cross, he should have just obeyed the law" is the type of thing these people would say had they lived back then.
@The Last Danite And yet Pilate didn't exonerate Jesus and let him be executed. Why? Everyone believes Jesus was a criminal...
@The Last Danite Yet Pilate, the Roman Prefect of Judea, given the powers of arbiter of justice and law of the area, can't exonerate Jesus if he believes he broke no laws? Tell me what stops the highest official of Judea from freeing Jesus and letting him die when he believes he is innocent?
Don't mix in a fairy tale with real life in America.
@The Last Danite You mean better kill an innocent man than have a riot in your hands? What a moral to tell people...
@The Last Danite You also missed the point of his statement. Despite Pilate believing Jesus is innocent and is in a position to say he is, he let him die because the people believed he is a criminal, that he should "follow the law".
Wait, did that sheriff suggest genocide? Also that last line scared me for real. All I have to say is... Vote, my friends. Vote. Vote blue down the ballot. Let's create a blue wave!!! We got this 🌊
1 man said something hypothetical?
Yea thats not a good reason to vote for or against man.
17:35 whoever wrote that bit needs their salary tripled. HOLY SHIT THAT WAS GOOD
in 2020 "the best is yet to come" sounds like a threat
i laughed way to hard at her choice of words... had to go down to comments for that one...
@Nagoalc Like.... we already had to deal with so much shit-- but there is more to come beyond this... (or is this gonna be a /r-whoosh for me or you?) I don't know.... but that lady's face was hella scary.
@Robyn Justice it's so frustrating to try to tell people this because almost everyone thinks that sounds too alarmist but it's True. Trump is a Fascist, very classically fascist.
@@marching27 her face was so scary because she was high to the sky.
12:06 Felt like I was in a horror movie. Guys, if I disappear along with all other black people, you know what happened...
the sheriff of Kenosha literally ADVOCATED FOR EUGENICS
LIKE WTF
Sheriff guy, just because your town's name sounds like a planet from Star Wars, that doesn't mean you get to meet Darth Vader when you join the Dark side.
Too many police, border patrol, and ICE agencies have been usurped by right-wing ideologues and that's the rot that needs to be removed.
Eugenics would be selective breeding. He advocated for GENOCIDE: The systemic killing of a particular racial/ethnic group.
@@matthewhafner962 Exactly. Alas, most people don't know the real definition and origin of eugenics, which appears not to the nazis.
@@matthewhafner962 Is there a word for genocide combined with eugenics? Genogenics? Eugenocide?

Unfortunately, no. He's STILL the sheriff in October 2021!
how does this even happen?!?
I don’t believe it. He should be removed and banned from ever holding public office ever again.
Good
I love how he has just gone off his MO and gotten angry, like Jim Gaffigan. #blacklivesmatter
Dude describes concentration camps, with zero self awareness. Thinking he came up with the idea of concentration camps.
That's because he wishes he was one of Hitlers Butt Buddies.
@@captainarcher2 You mean like Ernst Rohm? Well he got his in the end. Uh, just rewards, I mean. Anyway, the warehousing of human beings solve none of humanity's problems. It's been tried by the left and right to no avail. Folly and and waste of time and treasure, probably also with the loss of the souls of those who tried.
Scary isn't it
I recently read that Hitler was actually was inspired by the genocide against native americans to put up his concentration camps.
Please, don't let history re-repeat itself. I am from Germany. Please be stronger than my ancestors and not fall for a government that wants to kill its own people, but stand up against it.
@@WHix-om4yo I think the concentration camps of Japanese ppl was bipartisan during WWII, wasn't it?

@Boyd Crowder The irony here is Kyle was actually doing his duty.
@@bwanakelvin5555 how is a minor illegality carrying in a place that he dont live doing his duty? And dont give me the carpet about being a cadet not even the police we packing ARs so why should he. If it was a black guy do you think that the cops would just let him go? NO! They would have at worst shot him to death. You know why roit control uses shields pepper spray tear gas and high pressure hoses? Because if a shooting in a crowd like that happens it can lead to more then just riots. Riots must be stopped but by proper authority not a kid brandishing a deadly weapon.
Love that quote. Thank you.
@Djed Vartanes but in german language and in context to fascism in Germany. I had to ask google because I first thought it was a Batman or Hunter Thompson quote. I'm not from the US...
I really appreciate this raw version of John not hiding his rage. Feels cathartic as a viewer who also gets angry at the state of things but is far less eloquent.
He is an actor, you sad sad person.
Yeah because you’re a stupid liberal who likes to virtue signal. John Oliver is just another two minutes hate. You’re angry because you’re wrong.
it's acting, dont be dumb
Agreed !!
He is an actor as that other person has said.
You shouldn't let your emotions out, They make you weak and stupid. Just like john.
The 2 lawyers in the video were attacked at their home by blm not what john said happened at all. Go research that case. The video of BLM on their lawn is clearly visible.
I know this isn't necessarily the most relevant criticism of that racist, gun-wielding couple but that is some atrocious trigger discipline in their picture.
That is absolutely relevant, because idiots shouldn't own or promote firearms. Especially if they have no trigger discipline.
You should only put your finger on the trigger when you intend to fire.
Their trigger discipline is fine, the problem is far greater and deeper in them
@Fact Check: Correct on both counts:
Racist- yes
Shame on them- yes
BLM broke onto their private property so they came out of their homes with guns.
How is that in any way racist, Remember BLM is a movement of WHITE people not black people.
Calling white people holding guns infront of white people a racist act.
You truly are a special cupcake.
they need to fire that sheriff thats just gross
What about all the blacks murdering though.
An American sheriff declares his support for concentration camps. Never thought I'd see it.
The scary part isnt that he said it. Its that he thought it was fine to let it be recorded.
It gets worse. Joe Arpaio actually ran them.
Sounded more like extermination camps to me
We did it to the Japanese citizens 80 years ago.
You must not have been paying attention then. Much of what went on in Nazi Germany was borrowed from USA...
Takes a man of immense strength and wisdom to publicly admit he's not history's greatest Zazu. Rowan Atkisnon is an international treasure.

Better than Edward Hibbert though
John oliver is literally BBC stuffed in a guy
Takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile - than this show makes me a man!
(And it is Sir Rowan Atkinson for us non-knighted folks)
Truest thing he said in this week lol.
"Politically 1940's Germany" is fantastic.
Never say never John... “If you’re looking for a better visual illustration of the differences between being black and white in America, I don’t think you’re gonna find one“ is what we all thought but then January 6th 2021 happened
Lot's of white people being arrested for the most minor of crimes?
A white woman being murdered by a black man?
What of these things shows that america is anti black and pro white.
Even your own example falls so short.
wait wait wait, he basicly explained in USA the concept of a death camp as a solution for "young black men" and is still a sheriff?

I hear you. Take a break from media for a bit if possible, detox, relax, and come back stronger. Take care of yourself. : )
As a person who leans left, these Rittenhouse videos haven't aged well after watching the prosecution rest in his trial.
Read up about the lawyer couple case and how that was entirely self defense too
I like some of Oliver's work but I'm surprised he didn't choke with the amount of bullshit he was spewing in this vid.
@@zaper2904 exactly. Once video started coming out I could that this was probably self defense, but the way this trial is going makes me think that this is malicious prosecution, because it's not even close.
I'm going back to see what people said at the time because I knew the coverage when the incident happened was bad for Rittenhouse, but the whole narrative seems to be the opposite of reality. John Oliver, for example, calls him a vigilante, but from my eye the only people who were trying to take the law into their own hands were the one's trying to beat up or kill Rittenhouse.
@@cjlb49 Exactly. After being found not guilty and demonstrably innocent, he cannot be a vigilante. He also has no links to white supremacy groups or even any militias. He really does have grounds to sue HBO for defamation.
Or, maybe people are using basic common sense. That when you have one guy with an assault rifle, and one guy with a skateboard, maybe the one who brought a method of transportation wasn't actually the one who went there to kill someone.
@@Aethelia I suggest you watch the trial. There is zero evidence that he went there with the intent to kill people. The guy with the skateboard however....hitting someone in the head with a skateboard is clear intent to injure.
I think he has found good pacing for non-live audience shows
Wow, that cop is insane. Stop them from having children because they stole clothes? Locked away with no recreation? That's insane
Not “lock them away with no recreation”
“Lock then away so they can’t have children and then die”
That’s a definition of genocide!
The thing is he said it knowing that enough people agree with him so while it is insane to you (as it should be) it is a normal enough thought that he feared no push back from anyone that mattered.
That's Kenosha and Racine in a basket.
but he said they will make them a mall or amazon warehouses later
EVERY kop is insane. Do your homework: KOPS WERE INVENTED BY KINGs AND DICTATORS TO KILL OR BEAT UP ANYONE WHO QUESTIONS AUTHORITY.
The history of Kops is billions of times WORSE than any of you think. Slave Patrols were the LIGHTEST of their sins!
Jesus christ, that Sheriff is absolutely disgusting, it’s hard to even watch that clip of him speaking, and he’s still employed?
People of the world, HE DOES NOT REPRESENT THE WHOLE OF THE UNITED STATES!
No you see doesn't like black people. That's perfectly ok here don't you know./s
That’s the 🇺🇸 for you...overtly denouncing and denying racism, while covertly...or not so covertly, in the case of this sheriff, openly preaching neo-nazi policies.

Technically there will be. With whats going on I doubt it'll die because biden is in office. And then throw in butt hurt conservatives into the mix. Not his fault since he walked into a shit show
Funnily enough, Ive never actually thought "we should put shoplifters in warehouses until they die".
Once upon a time, bland, nondescript deviate sociopaths like D. Beth were given great powers and their ideas were taken to the next level and actually enacted upon and many millions of people were in fact warehoused in barracks and in cages and ''put in warehouses until they die". True story.
these capitalist bastards be like: ruclips.net/video/wGYhIFl26Tg/видео.html
Harvey Weinstein have ya thought about making movies?
@Harvey Weinstein I'm sure you feel the same about the Kenosha shooter that crossed state lines to murder two protestors, then? What about Trump, who we know kept his mouth shut about covid19 and STILL refuses to take ANY substantive federal action? Just throw him in a warehouse? What about Rand Paul, who refused to wear a mask and didn't even bother to tell anyone he was positive for covid? Every Trumper that refuses to wear a mask, for that matter? Just throw them in a warehouse and lock them in a cage until they die?
@Harvey Weinstein or how about a movie about an incel so frustrated with their own lack of achievement who experiences such traumatic cognitive dissonance born from the conflict of their functional failure at odds with their own over-inflated sense of self-importance, that they then create a youtube account with the name of a convicted rapist so that FINALLY they might get some attention and feel as though people might, for the very first time, give a shite about what has come out of their incel mouth.
Eugenics was left in the 1940s. I suggest it stays there. If you're interested in sharing political ideas and having a discussion how about you change that filth you have as a user name and grow the fuck up... and stop making me irritated enough that my own username becomes ironic...
Haha Just remembered John Oliver played Zazu in the new Lion King ❤️❤️
Does anyone just watch all of John Oliver's pieces for hours and just hope the apocalypse comes faster?

Nikki Haley: America is not a racist country
Also Nikki Haley: Here's my inspiring story about how my parents overcame racism in America.
Yeah Nimrata Randhawa Hal.... sorry... "Nikki" Haley would love for you to gather round for her heartwarming story about how totally not racist America welcomed her exactly as she is.
"America isn't racist now" and "America was racist many decades ago" aren't contradictory statements.
She has money and a platform now, therefore, nobody else matters.
Also Nikki Haley: And here's how my name used to be Nimrata Randhawa before I changed when I went into politics so that I could sound more white and escape racist reactions.
Or, you know... the biggest single deciding factor between allegiance to only two parties is the 2nd amendment, which was adjusted out of fear of blacks with guns.
"The best is yet to come." Takes a real different meaning after the riot.

Casually advocating genocide and claiming thats just what everyone is thinking
Seems there are some are in Georgia who agree…
www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-54160638
He wasn't advocating for genocide. He was saying, "Hey, maybe, it's not a good idea to let violent criminals back into society."
@@abren5974 Actually, he was advocating for genocide. Preventing a group of people from having children is a form of genocide. And that's without even mentioning that he wants to keep a group of people in a place to die in. That is literally genocide.
@@abren5974 No he wasn't. He was saying let's lock up black people who shoplift in a warehouse until they die, to kill off a generation.
Explicitly calling for genocide.
Getting frigging sick of bigoted people saying "I'm just saying what everyone is thinking." WTF do you think you get to be a mouthpiece for the rest of us??
'Warehouses'
That's a new euphemism for concentration camps I wasn't expecting today...
Well when people are just "human resources" then it only makes sense you would store them in a warehouse.
@@caseyb1346 Yes, and make sure they are all properly tagged and inventoried! ***Shudders*** Honestly, I think all this insanity can be partially tied to the failure of our education system. Good education is democratizing, civilizing, and encourages self-reflection & rational thought. It's not a coincidence that the same party that supports mass incarceration and cruelty has also been actively attacking our education system for decades. It's much easier to create an army of terrified pawns if you've damaged their ability to think first.

Stolen comment
The kicker when you find out that Sheriff Genocide is the same guy from the viral kneeling cop photo is just... wow.
Yeah, I did not see that coming and it was a punch to the gut.
Sam Iles I was horrified and disgusted in that sheriff. He literally is the worst in humanity.
I haven't seen that viral video, but commenting "Sheriff Genocide" all over it when I do is a fun idea.
I thought I saw a follow up video to that kneeling video where those cops were attacking the protesters in the same place a few hours later
Yep, everything they do is propaganda, they don't care about us. These Monsters are constantly everywhere.
"Real change does not come without real discomfort." That was the most important sentence in the episode, people.
Real change doesn't always necessarily mean better.
+
Discomfort, obviously, doesn't guarantee we're going in the right direction, but this quote is intended to speak to those who think we should just go with the status quo flow and ask nicely. Letting the powers that be get away with "thoughts and prayers" and empty promises got us here. As the right wingers are so fond of pointing out when they're the ones "resisting": our government (and all power) should be afraid of us, not the opposite.
C N I’d point out that uncomfortable doesn’t need to translate to violence, MLK made people uncomfortable without the need for violence
@@stephenandrzejewski6765 "A riot is the language of the unheard" - MLK
Also, a lot of that violence is instigated by right wingers trying to obscure the message of the protestors. Some is just opportunists looking to rob, and a lot of them are white as well.
Finally, white people riot over sports teams losing, so maybe cut the people being harassed and murdered by the authorities a little slack on the subject.
“The system does not respond until its forced to.” Preach.
I've never seen an accurate representation of prison industrial complex than in the sheriff's speech
That sheriff went off script and into genocide land. Unbelievable
Actually Trump is wrong that Biden or himself will change or solve the problem, most of the protest are actually directed at the local governments. That sheriff has the biggest impact, followed by the mayor, the governor, and finally the Federal Government which might be able withhold some Federal funding. Local governments, even ones run by black mayors and police chiefs have a real hard time coming down on city employees if the they have to choose between the employee and a citizen.
What rock have you been living under?
Some hick boss having an idyllic dream about racial cleansing is perfectly normal in America.
They actually went through with occasionally too, until at least World War 2, when black people were suddenly equally valuable again. Happens on occasion.
If I want to be really cynical I'd say black rights are being rolled back 'cuz we haven't had a good gotterdammerung for a generation or two. Nothing gets equality hammered through faster than needing more willing bodies for the trenchstormers.

Summary of RNC: Week of whitewashing dirty laundry
Is anyone surprised that Kushner, a man who has been handed literally everything in his life to him by his dad and his father-in-law, would make a comment like that?
His disconnect and utter stupidity are only exceeded by his entitlement.
At least those basketball players earned their money..most of them were poor or middle class. I doubt anyone of them was born rich like Kushner...even though his dad was doing illegal stuff.
Every time that sycophant whimp opens his trap, journalists should ask, how's the peace in the middle east 🙄
I keep wishing that just as interviews with the Trump administration begin, the interviewer would break in and say something like, "wait, why should we listen to this buffoon?" and then cut away. Then, the would-be interviewer would address the audience and say, "sorry about that folks, we'll try to get someone on who actually has knowledge about the situation."
That was literally my first thought when I heard him say that. He grew up with a silver spoon and was given all his money. Money that was gained by his father being a slumlord and committing multiple crimes. Yet he has the nerve to say that shit about a bunch of basketball players that were born into poverty and manage to rise above it through hardwork.
Wait, did they just admit that a confederate statue is “a divisive symbol”?
*flag. No, just Haley.. Trump wont denounce it..
....... wellllllll Nikki is the scarier type of racist that tries to hide history under layers of mis-truths/semi truths........... its hard not to admit at least that.... but man I dislike her.
Republicans are such hypocrites that need to run around in circles to keep their lies in line. You can call them out on pretty much everything they say because they’re never objectively correct on anything.
Nikki Haley is just trying to position herself to be a leader of the Republican party after Trump is gone. She’ll deny ever supporting Trump’s bullshit, repudiate it, and say she was against him all along. She’s just protecting her long-term career interests.
Who knew the flag that symbolized the complete separation of the Southern US from the union could be “divisive”
Of course it’s fucking divisive, stating the obvious, still there’s nothing wrong with the flag, it’s apart of History and shouldn’t be censored

“The best is yet to come”
(Rome burning in the background)
"Giant Meteor 2020"
Roy Wiseman, you’re dead wrong, or more likely, knowingly lying. Wisconsin is an open carry state. To carry, you must be at least 18. Rittenhouse is 17 and openly carried. Ergo, it was illegal. Case closed.
Also, the FBI has documented multiple instances of right wing provocateurs rioting, looting and engaging in arson in an effort to discredit protestors. So it is false to claim “all the burning is by BLM and Antifa.” Incidentally, the FBI has reported that they have found NO EVIDENCE of Antifa participation in the unrest.
I feel like you are either knowingly lying or you are absolutely blind to the world as it is. I think the latter is more true. You are a fanboy extraordinaire. Your republican party can kill, and you will always come with an excuse. Sounds a little bit familiar? That was what people did in 1930 in Nazi Germany. Do not repeat their mistake.
@@roywiseman Go look up the origin of the term "cultural Marxism" and how it is basically an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory peddled by the far-right for decades and now made mainstream within the GOP after Trump came to power. "Cultural Marxism" is a commonly used term that says that every institution in the US has been infiltrated by Marxists. It directly comes from the term used by the Nazi Party in Germany called "cultural Bolshevism." The only difference between this and the full white nationalist conspiracy theory is that white nationalists say the Jews are behind it while mainstream Republicans don't really believe that.
Look at Black Pilled YT channel and the man behind it, Devon Stack. Look at his book "Day of the Rope." He's a full fledged neo-Nazi, and his book is just a re-write of the "Turner Diaries." Look up The Red Elephants' interview with Devon Stack and how they talk like buddies. Look up Black Pigeon Speaks and see him recommend Devon Stack's YT channel.
Look at all the similarity between literal neo-Nazi propaganda and what now passes as mainstream ideas within the Trumpist GOP on shows like Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson.
Isn't it weird how George Soros is suddenly the scape goat for everything now? Isn't it weird that a lot of Trump supporters praise Vladimir Putin because "he's a traditionalist and staunch champion of Christianity?" Isn't it weird that Putin hates Soros and had a conversation with Trump about him in Helsinki? So why is there a pro-Putin message and anti-Soros message now?
Isn't it weird that Trump says not to trust the media, even Fox News now apparently? If we can't trust the press, who can we trust? Who becomes the arbiter of truth? Trump? Isn't that a bit self-serving?
Look up the "Rope. Tree. Journalist" shirt that has been seen multiple times at Trump rallies, and NO ONE SAYS ANYTHING TO THEM ABOUT IT. It is a literal incitement to violence, and if it ever came to pass would be the death knell for any semblance of the American Republic.
Open your eyes and see what these people are really about. It should make you feel physically ill what is going on. Trump is setting in motion what he needs to obtain absolute power in the country, and his most ardent supporters are already suggesting that Trump should get a 3rd or 4th term to make up for the impeachment. Doesn't that sound self-serving and dangerous? It sure as hell does sound that way to me.
"And that insists that THE BEST IS YET TO COME; which given what happened in the last 4 years, it sounds less like a promise and more like f*cking threat" John Oliver spoke volume, powerful statement for sure!
