Values like taking a job from a company like Apple, known for its values S/, then complaining that Apple has no values?
I lost a lot of respect for Stewart when he took a job with a company like Apple, and lo and behold it backfired on him.

I think there is a community on Lemmy that just likes hating everything, and if there's someone that's objectively un hateable they take it as a challenge

There are lots of reasons not to like John Stewart. He’s just another rich Liberal that has shit of leftists his entire career.

I think you are using "leftists" to mean something very different from what I mean when I say it.
He fought to communicate issues of racial justice and anti-corporate truth in media for years and years, then he quit broadcasting to take care of injured animals. He came back to politics to fight for justice for workers with health issues. He is now returning again, currently to go on a nationally syndicated platform and make a compelling case with receipts, aimed at the mainstream, for why the continued murder of the Palestinians is a horrifying crime and why it can be laid directly at the feet of the Biden administration.
What would you prefer him to do that's better than that? Train for combat and go and kill Netanyahu with his bare hands?

You know his career has been going on for longer than just the past year right? People can do good and bad things and people dislike him for doing bad things for the last 20 years.
He was shitting on Bernie sanders and has always supported right wing democrats and have hamstrung leftist in this country for a long time.
And democrats aren’t fucking leftist, if your party is pro Capitalism then it’s a right wing party.
