He wasn't great at doing that on TDS. On TDS he really only did that properly in interviews and on Behind The Scenes. The writers were clearly American so the jokes did not fit him at all. I hated his jokes when he was host. He's good when he's being himself. He wasn't himself on TDS. Don't get me wrong, I think it was a great opportunity for him, and I hope it takes him onto better things, but the daily monologue was mostly cringe. The cultural references did not ring true ... cos they weren't, and the political references were irrelevant bc he was not a citizen. I'm glad he moved on.

in the philippines, we had a very similar election in 2022. it was akin to Obama vs Trump. On our side was the most productive VP our country's ever had, on the other side was the son of former dictator Ferdinand Marcos. The lead up to the elections tore families and friends apart. There were a lot of trolling and threats on social media. Marcos Jr won. Two years later, we've moved on with our lives, and it turns out, Marcos Jr was on the liberal side. He even turned his back on former allies that had personal agendas in pushing him to run. Those former allies (the President from the previous administration, and his daughter who became Marcos' current VP) are the ones with the rabid fanbase a la MAGA-heads (look up President Rodrigo Duterte for more context). Any chance they get, they'll still harass and insult anyone who mentions or shows support for the former VP, even though they won.

Isn’t that part of some brainwashing scheme? Americans sing their anthem all the time, first thing in class and also in sporting events, they wave their flags everywhere, they swear to God in courts, the Bible is in public schools, Hollywood make Americans believe the USA saves Humanity in every movie, Veterans are honoured in various occasions… All that participates in the cult of war and the sense of imperialism that exists in this country. Most Americans feel entitled while they really shouldn’t. Maybe the worst thing with Americans is the love for money. They’ve associated God with the dollar… and another thing is how fake they can be with one another, which is something tourists very often tell about Americans. That’s because nothing is free in the US and people see a possibility to make money in every new relationship. Americans learn to hate people who are different. It starts internally: republicans hate democrats, white folks hate black folks and Latinos, rich people despise the poor (thinking they’re poor because they deserve it). In foreign affairs, Americans unite together in the hate of Arabic and so-said non-capitalist countries. Americans love guns and will always vote for millionaires. Isn’t that sick? Once again, they love money, so any millionaire is a model by principle, even if it’s Donald Trump. When it comes to the gun culture, that’s partly a legacy from the gold rush but also because people distrust each other (which started during the gold rush) and rightfully their government. So, basically, what makes the USA a country is the dollar, common hate for anticapitalism among American citizens and the wrong idea that the USA is the greatest democracy in the universe and have the duty to spread democracy all around the planet. But this unity is only possible with some brainwashing (anthem, flags, God mentions, dollar) that an American can finally realize by traveling abroad.

@@EricNkomo Brilliant! If the group ever needs a songwriter, I think you’ll get in. That honestly has made my whole day :)

I'm crying both because Trevor is so funny & I miss him on the Daily Show so much. 😂

Having him walk in to Grazing In the Grass was a nice touch

nice mix

4:00 THANK YOU!!! That was one of the biggest culture shocks for me. Anthem, flags and pledge everywhere.

The point Trevor made about how people overseas spend more time criticizing the people they voted for makes *perfect sense.* Americans just want to win at politics. People in sensible democracies actually want to hold their political winners accountable.

To be fair when its a local election and involves a mayor or some such the people will criticize them but if theres ever a split in the voters and they know the opposition has an equal chance to win then they'll spend more time attacking the rival over their own parties representative Which is overall dumb because the people still suffer when the crappy guy stays regardless of party

Don't blame the people, blame the ridiculous "largest minority wins even if it's not a majority" election system the US has. In that system, letting criticism build for your party's guy helps elect the guy you disagree with even more. So people naturally get afraid that criticizing their own guy will get someone even worse in power.

Sometimes, it is ridiculous though. The current president of Philippine is Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the son of an infamous corruptor-dictator, the late Ferdinand Marcos. Recently, people criticized him for using the presidential helicopter to go to a concert. I was like, 'Duh, you voted for the son of a corruptor. What do you expect?🙄'

@@arlom5132Even when it comes to defending Ukraine, the U.S. does it because it benefits them (they don’t want Russia to overtake the American position as the world’s leading superpower, especially from a military standpoint). I remember when there was a genocide in Rwanda in 1994, President Bill Clinton opted to keep the U.S. out of it. His government had nothing to gain from protecting those unfortunate Tutsis who lost their lives gratuitously.

You guys know nothing of the National Anthem. The original is a slave slogan!!! You people are so daft!!!

6:05 I love the dynamic these two bring 😂😂

The South African and New Zealand national anthems are also really beautiful and worth listening to. Both are multi-lingual anthems. In terms of the flag and patriotism I think that patriotism can easily be a gateway drug to nationalism. Patriotism on it's own is not bad but it is becoming a tool to isolate nations and create "them and us" mindsets. Someone who is patriotic and well travelled is usually very understanding of other nations and feels a bond to other countries. Someone who is patriotic and has not travelled at all is often very narrow minded and not really someone with a good understanding of other people that share the world with them but are different to them.

Nkosi Sikelele has to be the one that makes me cry. Because the first time I saw it play as an anthem and not a protest song, i was a teenager watching Nelson Mandela take power. The most unfathomable feeling.

its also essential to binding a nation together. things like giving back to a nation is only really possible when backed by sometimes irrational emotions like patriotism. i also think the idea its a gateway drug is a very university-educated perspective. we can't trust the masses. lets guide them. i think they are capable of thinking for themselves.

If Trevor thinks all anthems are about how beautiful the country is, he should listen to the French one. It's literally describing a bloodbath ! To be fair, it dates back to the French revolution, which were violent times. But it always feels weird to hear it sung by football/soccer players before a match. Like... do you intend to murder the other team and decapitate them ?! 😅

He is a race hustler that spews anti white hate instead of blaming black criminals for the horrific crimes happening daily in society

I love the song they played when he walked out, a South African classic by Jazz icon Hugh Masilela

We had to sing our anthem as part of our morning devotion from primary school to high school. I can't remember if we had devotion every day but we sang our anthem a lot in Jamaica.

Thank you for sharing your time with us here, sirs. Good on you, Stephen for sharing this world treasure with us.
