Coronavirus V: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

True that , they are noobs

Help me help us 🙊🙉🙈 skills are hard

Our education system is a shambles; I've come to realize that being a human being who uses my brain critically, I exist in a group that represents _maybe_ ~15% of the population? That's not enough to sustain a democratic society on! I learned recently about the phrase *"Educational Perennialism"* which believes in teach true critical thinking and reasoning skills to people predominantly through direct teaching of the great classic works of man; while I'm not picky about HOW we do it, WE NEED CRITICAL THINKING AND REASONING SKILLS!

It's more than just poor education, it's also a lot of unfettered capitalism that allows the very rich to prey on the ignorant and gullible, including the news they watch. It's big business keeping as many Americans as possible as stupid as possible.

Sadly because of these kinds of people Trump will probably be reelected. Found a good video explaining why Joe Biden will lose the election: krplus.net/bidio/ct2eqKmCh6_Dk4o

That would be all the 2% of people.

It is a cross that I must bear.

Thanks the small amount of idiots we have are just really loud

All 12 of us thank you.

Theres very few of us but we appreciate it

Cuz ppl want affirmation and not information....

And if they do, they will be going "LALALALALALA CAN'T HEAR YOOOOOOUUUUU!!!!!"

This is true for literally every educational thing ever, mostly stuff about vaccines.

Exactly!! 🤦‍♀️😢

Tkaos Because: Stupid is Forever -Ron White

Randall Goguen This is amazing 😂.

ha ha ha :)

hahahahah good one

He had s note from his dad.....gawd!

You Sir Are Amazing!

Get your suit ready, because you'll have a need for it when visiting them if they keep up keeping on.

Lots of funeral, but still, at least less idiots in your generation xD

as a European ... I pray for you. Because it's unbelievable how many crazy dumb people you got out there ... Haven't seen these idiots anywhere else "fighting for freedom" shit ... you really need some kind of revolution already. You're not united and everything that you should do for your own people is seen as communist. Very very sad

Even if they catch coronavirus and survive, they would have spread it to their family members before the symptoms could even appear in them. And I am sure not all of their family members are young enough to survive the disease.

You sound like an incredibly smart old soul, way ahead your time. Thank you for taking this seriously. Also, you can tell that you enjoy writing passionately; I'm a writer myself. Perhaps you should take a look into pursuing the same.
;)

Preach

Rynskie RIP customer guy

He died because he came in or that's how you found out?

I'm sorry you have to deal with such people. I respect what your doing.

Theres way more right? Sorry non US resident here just interested.

Matt Pet Yes. Yes, there are more.

@@mattpet7913 The States crossed the 200,000 deaths mark the other day I believe

Even worse now

96Swinehart he just had to go back mentally to his old days of standup. That silence can be deafening if you’re not prepared for it.

I am glad he hasn't resorted to a laugh track like some other people. Totally cheapens it all

@@ryanm6404 great way to word that

@@abhijeetshrawage4763 is that really a thing?

96Swinehart it’s evolving

That guys eyes just creeped the fuck out of me

Honestly televangelists in general give me the creeps

I’m convinced he’s a psychopath.

He looks like a puppet built from reanimated corpses

@@duderyandude9515 He has killed someone, I believe it lol

I think Dr. Phil was talking about the number of bodies he has buried under his pool.

Hello Cleveland!

we need to interrogate him on the messy foundation on his face too

'Dr' Phil is not even a licensed psychologist since 1989 (seemingly let it lapse, after being reprimanded the previous year), let alone a medical doctor. He got a doctorate originally, so that's how he gets to call himself a Dr.
Much like he conveniently never mentions how he was previously married & divorced, to a woman who had a less than flattering description of his behaviour. He was very young, so he can't really be judged on that, but he always has a condescending attitude (and of course is often pretty full of it)

Especially now

That's because he has common sense, as with most Americans, but there's still the others and that's what makes it heartbreaking

Yea I didn't laugh at all. I hope he tries harder next week. I expect better.

He ain't American...

@@foureveralone he has a citizenship...he's american too

Nathaniel Carroll Yes he is. He received citizenship years ago.

Under-appreciated comment right here. Such a blatant example of double-speak.

LIBERATE US SO WE CAN GO BACK TO OUR CORPORATE SLAVE JOBS!!!!

sadly, not only in the US

"Work liberates us." Aka. "Arbeit macht frei". It's a quote used as...concentration camps slogan.
The nazis' perversion twisted the phrase' original meaning and they used it to hide how inhumane they treated people, manipulate and abuse them for their own profit... I say the US is looking quite facist right about now.

It's because the US lacks a safety net so people will literally starve or become homeless if they can't work.

Like the.miley cyrus song?

The US as a whole is handling the pandemic just as well as Europe. The only failure the US had was how bad Andrew Cuomo ran NY

​@@yelsewgalt9178 In my country we have free health care, lay off programs being implemented, even for independent workers, social security payments being applied because of the rise in unemployment, places and programs to immediately allocate the homeless and refugees, districts made social support lines, to bring food and pills to those who can't afford it or can't go and fetch it. One of which I'm volunteering in.
Behavior of the population apart, America has systemic structural issues, which need to be resolved.
And the basis of that solution is a change in consciousness, of the politicians and the people, and the realization that everybody, no matter the race, gender, ethnicity or socioeconomical background, is equal and should have the fundamental human rights to have food, health and a roof. Besides COVID, the global disease of hyperindividualism set us apart, and now, more than ever, we can see the importance of remaining united and care for each other, without having to know why. Being part of the whole humanity should be a reason strong enough for our unity.

@@xRS23x It's good to come together. My point is that the US is a large county and this show is trying to make the point that we are failing big time when that is just false. Some States are having a really hard time just like some EU countries are having a really hard time. But even in NYC no one was denied care which was happening is parts of the EU as their universal health care systems got overrun.

@@xRS23x I don't think the US or people in general need as much help as you're saying if we're thrifty (as a small country could be supported like that, but not so easy for a much larger one). I live off rice, peas, oats, flax, and.vitamins. So if we cut our needs to the very least and work hard to produce, even for free (as getting a job where I live's not an option), then fewer services are needed. I'm not saying none, but also not get jealous or want what we can't or shouldn't have if we don't need.it is a good balance.

I know this is two years late. But who the hell thinks it's okay to physically rub up against another person to rush them? That's a quick way to get your ass kicked

I believe since 2002😒😓

Hunt the good stuff

Wow just....wow

Sadly, now abusive families largely aren't being as well reported because teachers were the number one reporters of child abuse.

Kind of hard to have a mass shooting when there are no masses of people congregating. Sad truth, but yeah...

Shane Wechsler I had the same impression. Just when he sais that he knew people that have died of this virus you know it hit home. I’m pretty angry myself now looking at all this rampant stupidity!

There are def some older LWT episodes where he seems jaded/frustrated. Other sound/audience reactions definitely seemed to help keep him on center when he would usually perform though

His anger has been building up since the first Coronavirus video. You can tell that with every ending of the video his tone gets harsher

The laugh track isn't for the audience, the laugh track is to keep the monster inside John calm.

It’s pretty clear to see that he is genuinely upset at this point. I’m glad he has a platform to be able to be open and free. Also, speaking of platforms claiming to be free, fuck you AT&T!! That’s right, I said it!

That news really bothered me too! I just graduated from Nursing school and learned about condition like Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis that use medications like Hydroxycloroquine and I was thinking to myself, "There are people who need those medications first!!"
I really hope that you were able to get a refill for your medication without paying so much for it. You shouldn't have to be "sacrificing" anything in order for this drug to be tested on CoVID-19. People with conditions like Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis should be coming first!
I hope that you are doing well and that you have a wonderful day!

@@SymphonySinger Thank you!! I managed to get it refilled last week with my appointment and it was more costly than usual but not $2,000 so it's working out alright! I'm was very blessed that way. Thank you for your well wishes!!

It's okay because, as I'm sure you're pleased to know, your country salutes you. And that's what's most important. And if it isn't what's most important to you, we just have one question: why do you hate America?

And even if it did work (which it doesn't!!!), there's a significant number of people who can't take it because the side-effects will kill them. Many cardiac patients are on meds that will mix very badly with it, or the condition itself will respond very badly to it. So their only choice is to not get covid-19.

Be much worse to have it.

You can kinda see it getting to him

Damn they pushin thus crap hard

انا اشهد

I know this is an American show. With a British/American host. But....the misinformation seems to exclusively be In America.

I said the same thing last week.

and the sad thing is
other presidents, who sacrificed "American lifes" in wars and whatever were blamed and shamed for it.
this will probably never happen to Trump. he'll be re-elected and we will have to deal with his stupid face, for another couple of years.
thanks America

Remember Obama’s mustard-gate?

Also worth noting that it is not 40k people who died this year. it is 40K who died in the last 3 weeks while 35k died in the last 2 weeks.

Trump tweeted 2 days ago that 17,000 people died of H1N1 under Obama, and said polling numbers were terrible during that whole YEAR. Trump actually thinks his failure is a win.

It's reassuring

sorry for your loss :( but stay positive. This only proves that more than any weapon or what those who so passionately defend the 2nd amendment fail to realize is that ignorance can be even more dangerous than any weapon. There needs to be more focus on overhauling the education system

Agreed. This part has hit me much harder than the actual virus

My grandfather died in a car accident, and the fact that you drove to the grocery store is insulting ...

@@MrGgabber what's your damage?

Sorry for your loss, and it's amazing to read about new nurses . Best of luck with your studies.

And it’s a annoying that Trump will win because of these following reasons:krplus.net/bidio/ct2eqKmCh6_Dk4o

You mean Tucker Carlson didn't fact check? I'm shocked.

Don't tell me you are surprised?

Trump, quit trying to make hydroxychloroquine a thing, it's not going to happen.

Haha, wait a week until you’re king Obama is indicted. Oh yeah, such a big topic a guy lying over going to stanford medical school. Meanwhile, clinton’s are free running murderers.

Funny, he says he's pro-choice, yet opposes abortion. Sean Hannity, propagandist extraordinaire.

But it's not even that, most smokers will step outside/away from people to have a cigarette even of they're inconsiderate/obnoxious it's obvious when someone is smoking and at worst you can step away. This is people saying they don't want to deal with minor inconveniences for the safety of the general public and would rather let those that are at risk die than deal with them. This is the anti-vaccine movement part 2 with a vengeance, because this disease is not preventable, but it is manageable and our history and knowledge shows us how, people just need to get on board and do their part.

@@TheUnshippedcorpse But we hear that many people have recovered, quickly too, and that many are asymptomatic if they're basically healthy. At the same time their bodies are developing antivirus immunity.

@@kayem3824 oh really? Do you have sources to cite for this? Because just a week ago WHO stated there was no evidence of immunity in those that have recovered, not to mention they can still spread it regardless. Many people being largely asymptomatic is a well known fact and it's not actually a good thing, 80% have little to no symptoms, but 20% will and this is a very serious problem, that's 1 in 5 people roughly 1 person from every household. If people aren't distancing themselves then a very large number will end up at the hospital simultaneously and they have limited resources, that means they will have to prioritize care, that means doctors have to start making calls of who to save and who to forsake. If we flatten the curve and spread this out that doesn't have to happen, those people don't have to die, but people need to stay home, stay away from each other and ride this shit storm out.

@@TheUnshippedcorpse I saw today on the BBC that the medics are taking blood from those with virus in order to use as cure. That must be anti-bodies.

He prolly wont since so many people already have covered it

AMERICA could become a great nation overnight by following one very simple rule:
Every citizen, in every situation, needs to ask themselves just one simple question:
"What would Trump do?"
And then do the EXACT opposite.

Yes krplus.net/bidio/ZcVrk5xifaWlXpw

I hate how true that feels right now...

Wait, we aren't the performers?

@Boricua 787 Backstage pass?

@Boricua 787 They're at the stage playing...

And just like Chernobyl, that debt will likely be paid with the blood of the innocent...

And the history repeats

Yes, except that debt will be lots of death, and further destabilisation of the country.

See, ma! I told you my History degree wasn't useless.

Silverfox you should add that the debt comes with interest

"saviour Cron" is better IMO

@@VitaeLibra ahhhhh... hadn't heard that one.. i think i made that my screen name like 2 years ago and you're the 1st person to comment on JO's riddle. i was starting to think it might never happen. no one's even ever asked the meaning. nice

No clickbait

My god... I could barely stand watching the clips of fox news on this show as it is, to have to watch two weeks of that much stupid... poor bastard

god, I hope they just look at transcripts and control "f" that shit

Bertie W: "colleague" seems unrealistic, "underling intern" seems more likely...

Lucky for him, there are tools for that.

I like to believe someone was smart enough to build an algorithm.

He's been getting rightfully mad during the last few episodes

No it’s not, I like John and dislike Trump but the quote “What do you have to lose” was taken out of context and the full quote is “you should have the right to choose if you’re on your death bed and all other treatments have failed, just take it, what do you have to lose at that point”

People have been saying that in the previous 4 episodes of this topic. By the time he covers Corona Virus X, he probably will turn into the Hulk.

@@MajorMlgNoob He is most likely very well informed exactly how bad things are in frontlines. His wife is ex combat medic and involved with various disaster relief medical organizations.
Heck his wife might be working on Corona relief work all the time currently. So his rage might very well be fueled with "My wife is doing medical work to help people and you are actively making everything worse".
ohhh yeah. Quick look and Team Rubicon, which is the disaster relief org she has been at least previously reported to be working with is doing field medical work in USA to fight the pandemic....
Soooo let's just say John is not only mad in general level.... He is also most likely has rather personal involvement fueling his rage....

I feel his pain. He's my all-time favorite TV person because he's true and passionate about what he does. I'm so happy that these videos are posted on youtube because I really think that everyone needs to have access to them. Kind of wish they were mandatory actually.

Bootch I thought the same thing too!!!!

I wondered if Ed Sheeran was really her grandson.

Fun fact: apparently that's not an uncommon mistake - I actually was googling that recently, and it turned out that...a lot of people mobbed her grandson thinking he was Ed Sheeran.
Turned out, Ed Sheeran sent security to help get him away from that too.

Richard Britten Also 60,000 people dying from ‘flu is terrible and he should probably be worried about that too.

To be fair, that 60k he quoted was from a model by the University of Washington

Update from 9 September ... total USA confirmed cases: 6.34 million, deaths: 190, 000

Luubelaar and the total global deaths are gonna hit 1 million soon, which is just a yikes in general

@@theandromedaeffect979 1.33 Million now as of November 17

Thank you so much for your comment and more importantly for the hard work you do everyday. I know “hard work” is an understatement, and, for what it’s worth, there are some of us who are taking this seriously so the insanity you see every day can come to an end sooner rather than later. You and your wife and all your coworkers and quite simply amazing-I don’t need to know you to know that to be true. Thank you thank you thank you.

ReuterLanmeier I know it doesn't help, but you have my sincere apologies for how pathetic my fellow Americans can be. I really hope you, your wife, and your colleagues make it through this

Fellow ER nurse here. My husband and kids moved out for protection bc I was scared to touch them too. Lost a relative just yesterday. Its been so hard and causes my blood to boil to see privileged ignorant people disobey something that was put in place for their own safety. Putting other lives, and my life further at risk and keeping us further from our spouses and families. I'm sending you well wishes friend. Thank you for your sacrifice ❤ every storm runs out of rain sooner or later. This will be over eventually, for now it's just one day at a time.

respect.

And look at how the media is covering the pandemic - it's all politics, politics, politics. I've seen almost no footage of what is really going on in the hospitals throughout our country. That is entirely purposeful. "They" don't want us to know how serious and devastating this is for those going through it.

Stupidity is letting medical experts create a global economic depression and more debt than has ever been created before.
A pandemic with 99 percent of hospitals EMPTY. 😂😂

“In the SARS family” meaning, partially, that we are susceptible to it?

phk I actually didn't know that. I would have guessed that there would be more discovered members of the SARS family.

@@michaelturner5093 There is a Nature article which explains it quite good, there was MERS discovered in 2012 too, which is also a respiratory syndrome virus, but since it was only found in middle east (middle east respiratory syndrome) I guess it's not directly tied to SARS family from a scientific point if view. www.nature.com/articles/s41564-020-0695-z

@@macaylac9829 that was a hoax he didn't die

I can guarantee he'd lose at least a few viewers over it, since they NEVER check the context of anything they read or see.

Again, such a fallacy of false equivalence.
Making an educated decision on if you are sick, washing your hands properly and using social distance responsibly to try to make sure you aren't one of the incredibly small percentage of people who may get someone sick is not equal to killing a baby.
That's like me saying "Well, you drove a car today and could have killed someone, so I get to murder your child."

YAASSS!That and the covid protester that had the poster that stated "my body, my choice". The irony is just jarring, laughable, and just altogether sad.

@@MrGgabber No one's insinuating equivalency? The point is basically that Hannity is a piece of shit and the fewer people that listen to him the better

It's not news. It's propaganda

It isn't in Australia and Canada. Lol

They consider themselves an entertainment channel. At least that is their defense in recent suits regarding their misinformation about the coronavirus. They can lie all they want because officially, they're not a news source, it's just a name.

You have much to hear my padawan.

I agree. But when he calls for the country to unite, his actions are not really going in this direction. Since everything he says is against the right. I totally see, why he would do so. But he does never ask: What do these people / these processes have, that the other side of the spectrum is missing / is not adressing.
Maybe the "war" between left and right must continue and is just what keeps the US strong. I do not know. (As a guy from outside the US especially)

@@awee1234 Incredibly stupid comment

@@awee1234 - Here's the problem with your statement.
Literally truth itself is against the right. Republicans, Trump, and the people that follow them all live in their own little made-up alternate reality that does NOT match with the reality we live in.
There is no compromise with that. There is no middle ground with that. The people on the left need to stop looking for compromise, because the people on the right will only continue to shift the goal posts. It's decades past time we put down our foot and draw a line in the sand so we can get our nation back to running on sanity and empathy, as it did (mostly) during FDR's time.

​@@mackan3442 no its not but ur just a shill kid

How about we invest in bringing somebody _else's_ education system _to_ the US, because ours clearly isn't working and throwing more money at it probably won't fix the problem. I hear that schools in Europe are run very differently than ours.

You just throw money in the US education system, and it will just go to more money for administrators, district officials, superintendents, etc. It needs an overhaul, oversight, and it needs to be brought to a set national standard, not a standard for an individual state.

@@stevethepocket Yes they are run differently speaking as a so called European "personally hate the term" but each country has a different system we aren't a united europe confederacy thank God.

Traffic death toll is about 40,000 a year and Covid-19 has surpassed that figure in months. So not-medical-doctor Phil is wrong again.

Right! In addition good public transit can save people a huge amount of money, compared to the insurance, fuel, maintanence, and cost of depreciation imposed by our automobile dependence. Also, it’s better for the environment if our built environment prioritizes walking, cycling and transit over cars. That requires more missing middle housing and generally increased density near transit lines.

I hate when those “geniuses” use that argument. Auto accidents are not contagious

Also, while catching a bad case of bumper can be quite deadly, there aren't any known cases of it being contageous.

James K Great whattabout-ism there buddy. Unfortunately, that wasn’t what we were looking for here, better luck next time.

You’d think with all this division we’d be somewhat competent at math

@@breakingbacon658 honestly

Problem is the common enemy is only threatening some of us. All those people in power have access and the funds available to the healthcare they need to stay alive during this pandemic. This problem isn't real TO THEM. They don't care if it hurts the public they are responsible for as long as they can make money from it, or they can win the vote of the people leftover so they can continue to make money from it. They've never cared about us regular people but half of Americans can ignore that because they don't care about anybody but themselves. If people could learn to actually care about their fellow Americans AT LEAST then we wouldn't allow these people to remain in power because every single thing they do is designed to get them as much money and power as possible.

Sadly, it's what Americans are best at.

TheOneWithComments
YES, and the only way they can keep their over-the-top wealth and power is by keeping the rest of us divided.

Left wing media is just as bad. It really depends on the subject and your bubble.

@@roffel6876 xcuse me.... All media is that bad...

this goes with any media if you just believe everything the magic tv people tell you to believe. doesn't matter if it's the right wing media nor the left wing media. the lesson here is don't believe everything you hear especially from the MSM and Politicians because they don't care and will throw everyone under the bus to protect there bottom line.

All media is that way

People can say all media is bad... But there's only one echo chamber actively advocating a population starts killing itself in the name of freedom. So no, they are definitely not the same.

Was there really a mass email that thanked you for your sacrifice? Because gag

@@hungwilliam44 drinking only water for 10 days to fight an autoimmune disease? Holy shit fuck the shit people say.

@@ylounis Pretty sure that's lethal; there'd have to be at least a meal a day or so similar to normal fasting

@@hungwilliam44 Stop spreading your bullshit, asshole.

​@@emmae2520 I think that was specific to a hospital system. I did not receive a letter, and neither did others who take hydroxychloroquine. The common theme was reducing the supply (30-day over 90-day) and to talk with a rheumatologist about different management options in the event of a shortage. *Narrator* But there aren't any other options...

Same here

Me... at 8am...

they dont call it late night for nothing

9 am here in Germany, should work now... Ooh John Oliver

Yes

I definitely agree, but John Oliver and his team deserve the title "investigative journalists" in addition to stand up comedians. His reporting is always solid and he digs deep, especially into areas other reporters overlook. 👍

These are confusing times.

Jon Stewart started this trend.

We live in a world where Millennials and Gen-Y watch comedians reading jokes from a teleprompter and think it's news. Oliver is funny, but that's all he is. He's not the news. He's a leftist schill with a smarmy British accent. Many (not all) of his rhetorical arguments are as fake as the tele-evangelist who "blows" the coronavirus away.

@@bry2k 1) Gen-Y and Millennials are the same group.
2) This man is not propagating conspiracy theories like some other "News" outlets are so I would at least consider him a current events commentator.
3) What has this man said that is fake. Was it the call for unity, was it reporting of how misinformation is being spread though media, or was it him pointing out that presidential tweets have a strange correlation with Fox News.
I would love an honest answer to my third point.

im waiting for trump to come out and tell the people that plants crave electrolytes

The saddest part is that movie would be a Utopia compared to what's currently happening. The idiots in that movie were smart enough to realize they were idiots and turned to the Smart guy to help them. If only....

I absolutely hated that movie, but then, all this shit happening now…

Everytime John delivers more "RL" examples of People like in that Movie! Crazy Times.

I would say its a marriage between Idiocracy and 1984
“War is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength.” + DUMB ASS

glenclank sameee

Same here.

When you have worked overnights the whole time, but now your menial cleaning job is considered "essential", so things like John Oliver get you through....

My sleep schedule is so obliterated that I got sleepy at 5pm yesterday and woke up at 1:30am.

My sleep schedule is so eff'ed! I go to bed between 4-6 A.M. now

I wonder if Trump is taking the medication HQ he’s pushing, I read his family has a lot of stock in the company that makes it.

Im american living in spokane washington
Its really not that bad at all. The news has a lot of people scared.
Its a struggle everywhere you go.

@@dewmontain123 maybe not bad where you are. You should be thankful for that instead of attacking the media. Imagine the media covering California wildfires that are burning millions of acres and wildlife and property and you look out of your home in Florida and say "it's not actually that bad" 🤪

I literally nodded my head in sympathy for John. Imagine losing loved ones because of your country leader's stupidity.
This is insanity. I'm so glad I'm in Europe (Portugal has low virus levels and we took it seriously from almost the beginning).

As an American the situation in Europe seems surreal. The mortality rate in Europe is FAR higher than in the US so far. If the US mortality rate was as high as it is in Europe I don't think you'd be seeing these morons out protesting.

I can think of worse alot worse

Graham Light32 like your grammar :

@@mooselove that was brutal lmao

@@grahamlight3263 I'll bet 'worse' would be having to listen to his lying briefs... those under his pants. ;-)
