John Oliver eviscerates the phony outrage over the Hunter laptop story.

The bulk of the episode focuses on Facebook and how Zuckerberg is bending company policy to trump's will. Paradoxically, the very thing the Right accused FB of doing when Biden was prez.

Because the laptop story is central to Right wing orthodoxy regarding the assertion the free speech of conservative's has been targeted, I took note when Oliver shredded it. Go to the 24 minute mark of the show. Or watch the whole thing, it's excellent. I enjoyed it immensely.


It's worth mentioning that when two states sued the federal government, alleging that government officials had censored speech in violation of the 1st A, they lost.

'Hunter Biden’s laptop was real'

It was real in the sense that it exists, but it didn’t prove much.

Trump allies obtained a laptop or copies of a laptop during the 2020 campaign that allegedly belonged to Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s son. Over time, there has been less doubt that the laptop did in fact belong to Hunter Biden, though how the laptop came to be obtained by Trump allies and Trump-friendly media outlets is unclear.

The London-based Daily Mail has published a series of salacious findings from the laptop, including nude photos of Hunter Biden, that have focused on his drug use and legal problems. Hunter Biden has been open about his history as a recovering drug addict; he’s said it’s possible the laptop was stolen from him.

Nothing from the laptop has revealed illegal or unethical behavior by Joe Biden as vice president with regard to his son’s tenure as a director for Burisma, a Ukraine-based natural gas company.

Zuckerberg has radically changed Meta's platform policies to allow more lies and hateful speech, just the way trump likes it. Mark also agreed to settle a lawsuit over the entirely legal banishment of trump from FB because of trump's repeated violations of policy.

The Oliver video shows trump being asked if he thinks his threats against Zuckerberg influenced Mark's decision to align FB with trump's wishes. His answer....."probably."

1. The fbi and the cia worked together to run an intelligence operation against the ameican people, without authorization. That is mutiny at best and possibly treason.

2. People's speech was suppressed.

3. This is not about "outrage" but simply noting that the left has politicized the government and that the supposedly neutral civil servants and agents have actually been turned into dem operatives and thus need to be purged.

That little bit of nonsense doesn't really address how Zuckerberg has altered the platform's policies to align with trump's penchant with allowing misinformation to proliferate unchecked.

I am find him incredibly whiny, nasal, and unwatchable.

Can you summarize the gist of his claims about Hunter Biden’s laptop? Is it that is fake according to a bunch of retired intelligence officials?

I went to :24 and it was still him crying about Facebook.

Interesting. I see how you state as fact that FB is trying to curry favor with TRUMP! while pretending it was only an accusation that they did it for Quid Pro Joe. Quite funny that you're pretending in another thread that FB did not do that, even though they admitted to holding regular meetings with government officials to discuss it.
