Jon Stewart did a parody of the opening of his own show. It's one which would please MAGA – at least on the surface. 😉
BONUS TRACK!: After the MAGA parody, Jon welcomed a REAL Nobel Peace Prize winner – Philippines journalist Maria Ressa. Ms. Ressa had to deal with thuggish harassment from (the now former) authoritarian President Rodrigo Duterte.
She compares what happened in the Philippines to what is going on currently in the US.
One of her key points was to emphasize the role of social media in spreading what she calls "toxic sludge".
Jon compared what he calls "ultraprocessed speech" on social media to sickening ultraprocessed food.
The Nobel laureate said that what we are currently experiencing is more like Armageddon than the Apocalypse – and that's good news; see the vid to get her reasoning.
She ended by reminding everybody that Rodrigo Duterte is now in jail at The Hague awaiting trial for crimes against humanity. The implication is that Trump's future may not be as rosy as he thinks.
