I'm not sure if it counts as political but their last tweet
fuck me the replies to that tweet are AIDs

Not sure if it was in that review or just one where the movie is mentioned, but the context was them making fun of Josh Sweden for whining about Jurassic World for having "70's era sexism" or something to that effect.
That was some time ago, and making fun of Joss' take on one line of dialog is not the same as all the takes they've had about "the right" or whatever.

I'm not sure if it counts as political but their last tweet is a completely red covid map with a caption about brighting up your day. I wonder if the lung association donations on Mike's dad's obit wasn't because of lung cancer, but because of covid. Tweet like that seems out of the ordinary and about as "political" as they get.
I get they like to keep it vague, but what is the point? We've had this fucking virus for 2 years and have not seen major increases in deaths until sometime after the vaccines came out, but don't tell Jay that. He'll just say that's a conspiracy. Variants of the virus keep getting weaker so no, this has not ruined my Friday.

This would be the end of them to me. Getting in bed with such horrible left wing faggots. At that point, have Lindsay Ellis and Contra Points on.

I wonder if that's the real reason they didn't do Octopuff In Kumquat. Mike didn't have the heart to shit on a corny anti-smoking cartoon when his own dad was dying of lung cancer
 
Making fun of hipsters is not punching left, just making fun of a gay fad. Even hipsters don't like hipsters.
Now you're just shifting goalposts. The simple fact is that they took a swing at something on the left side of the aisle. Just like you were complaining about them taking a swing at something on the right side earlier.

If you mean something more narrow and precise, the define it now instead of playing the same definitional game CRT supporters play of "it means what I want it to mean whenever I want it to."
 
I'll never get over how badly they interpret Borat. I get Sasha Baron Cohen has conned everyone into thinking it's a satire against American culture and prejudice but it's actually a testament to small town America acceptance. Apparently Americans are racist and xenophobic because they accept the character of Borat at face value. Borat faces little to no racial or cultural prejudice. His culture is accepted for what it is and is actively encouraged into assimilating into American culture. Also for some reason Cohen's extremely offensive and inaccurate caricature of Kazakhstan is fine because it gives America what for.
Listen, honkey, when I put on baggy overalls, threw a dirty mop on my head, and covered my face in shoe polish and lipstick; I was doing this to own whitey. Whitey's too dumb to comprehend this thematic complexity and can only seethe.

Honestly though, whitey probably is too dumb, since all I see is whities falling for his grift lol
 
The fact that nobody can pin down their politics is a good sign. Nobody wants to be fed that dogshit in funny video discussions.
Everyone can tell that their "politics" are the same combination of uncritically adopted media attitudes and not actually knowing anything as every other supposedly apolitical person's.

American politics is so Twitter-addled that being TV-addled doesn't even seem like a thing anymore.
 
I don't need them to be polticial or agree with me.

Just give me dry sarcasm, drunken antics, and abuse of Rich Evans. That what I watch them for.
This.

It's weird seeing some copes about them making fun of "the left" as well or acting like we don't know their politics at all. Again, they are 90s liberals. Not that big of a deal but it can be kind of gay sometimes lol They are some of the very few people I can stand talk about movies.
 
just watched the christmas episode, i appreciated the discussion about our Dear Feeder and of course THE HULKSTER
