[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so sick of smug men who think they get to decide what’s worthy of discussion. [/quote]

Yes. I feel slightly better about this knowing it is from 2016 and not like today, but still. Oh because someone saw it on social media it's not a thing Jon? Okie dokie.

Not what he said.  He said he didn't know and it was important.

More importantly, NOT everything you see on social media is real.  Hence the Comet Pizza shooter.[/quote]

No, not what I was saying. He smugly dismissed the guy, clearly a fan bringing up an important concern, and tried to make him look stupid. Had the audience laughing at him. Saying he hadn't seen "the tweets" as if social media is an insane way to get credible information. It is not. The fact that there is fake news doesn't = everything is fake news. Not how this works.

Jon Stewart's reaction is EXACTLY why people are silenced. Because you risk looking ridiculous if no one believes you. This guy looked ridiculous in the audience in 2016, and now he doesn't. Jon does though. [/quote]

I also think that he was friends with him for 30 years he would have heard of these allegations and this kind of behavior, or seen how he was around women. I don't buy the "I had no idea" from him or Pamela Adlon[/quote]

Yep. It was an open secret in the comedian community.

And I agree with PP that someone of Stewart’s stature getting an audience to laugh at the questioner is exactly the kind of thing that keeps these issues swept underneath the rug. [/quote]
