i've already posted this before, and i also have to let out my more far-left side for this.

all that being said, just recently in his monologue, stephen riffed on the us being given the silla crown at apec, going so far to call south koreans (in the thumbnail of the monologue on youtube) "seoul suckers".

being someone who lives in the us, i have to agree with the koreans on this. the crown was supposed to be a symbol of korea and korean history and culture, going back to silla. yet stephen (and by extension the late show team) calls the koreans "seoul suckers", as if that's funny. it's NOT funny.

and don't get me started on the fact that stephen's old show "the colbert report" had himdo a character that's supposed to be a parody of asian stereotypes, but all that culminated in an out-of-context tweet (from the colbert report's official twitter account) which revealed that his 'stereotype parody character' unintentionally makes a mockery of asian people, and stephen (both his character and himself) missed the opportunity to apologize. suey park was right about that (and she DOESN'T deserve the harassment that she has gotten).

before any of you colbert-lovers on hexbear (if there are any colbert-lovers on hexbear) complain, i have a sense of humor, i strongly disagree with trump and i understand satire and such, but stephen has gone too far and failed to be satirical, and as such, i request stephen colbert to apologize. i will NOT watch the late show until stephen apologizes. the day stephen apologizes will be the day there's a blue corn moon.

stephen colbert is a bourgeois liberal who supports netanyahu and secretly hates socialists.

i said what i said. thank you for listening to my rant.

colbert should've just shut his mouth and stuck to acting and writing and such.
