Correct this typo gya faoggt <| sep |> The black panther party openly supported Obama . David Duke is a POS who I ' m sad people ever supported . Your average republican is not racist and most republicans aren ' t . to me , one of the reasons people think republicans are racist is because 1 most DONT support Black Lives Matter and 2 be use most support more free market economy as opposed to social welfare which under obama is aimed to try and help blacks affirmative action . <| sep |> This comment is exactly why I am so skeptical of John Oliver . He has a very unique style of using jokes to bookend his arguments . This disarms the viewer so they don ' t critically consider his argument . Additionally , by combining arguments with insults he is able to galvanize his audience against certain groups such as third parties , so the viewer associates that group with public ridicule . Then , the cherry on top , is whenever one of Oliver ' s arguments is questioned , the criticism can be dismissed , because John Oliver is just a comedian making jokes . It is near perfect propaganda .
