Gang violence...
He was an attack dog for the right against Obama
i guess i see the point but it is hard to compare the two when one actually exposed things that otherwise would not be known, and the other was just yelling fire in a theater

What the fukk happened to Maher, dude has become a complete servant of the democratic party.. dudes like Maher, Stewart and Jon Oliver used to be edgy because they exposed rich elite corruption but now they only do it for one side. So in realty they are okay with corruption as long as they somehow get a piece.
Id leave Jon Stewart out of it... He was a little too buddy buddy with Obama but he tore the Dems a new one all the time... And hes effectively retired now.

But largely you are right. The main left leaning political commentators are falling in line these days. Even Maddow and Chris Hayes have been lets say... Generous to Clinton.

Even though he isn't on TV right now, Keith Olbermann has been begging Jill Stein on Twitter to drop out :mjlol:

I followed him on twitter and immediately regretted it. Fam talks about Trump all day to the point that it got me feeling like that Clinton Foundation money long :sas2:.

Yeah but look how far it got them both. An enemy of your enemy may not be your friend, but its a damn good resource.

My point is that they both (Assange and Trump) are scumbags but made their name by being a thorn in one side's ass so the opposition championed them, and that prestige went to both of their heads. It comes a point where you gotta draw a line on what help you accept or else these egocentric characters will keep using it as opportunities to raise their own profile.
