It's safe to say that the people who have a burning hatred for Hyde and the MDE boys hate them because the shit that they're doing struck a nerve.
Hyde definitely has a talent for doing that, even if much of it boils down to him just throwing a lot of shit at the wall knowing that at least some of it will stick.
Just look at that Joe Bernstein faggot who has pretty much dedicated his life to destroying MDE after getting humiliated by Hyde.

Tim and Eric did it first, whereas Sam Hyde did it best.

You can see this in the former's panicked efforts to remain relevant. Tim Heidecker, for example, recently did some deadpan interview thing where he 'came out' as a 'cuck' - which rather than being humorous was merely cringeworthy.

>equating crude humour to good humour is a good sign of a fucking retard.

Crude humor, humor that actually has some stakes to it, is the only humor that matters. Ugliness is key. Otherwise you end up with John Oliver and Samantha Bee.

>any political humour of any sort is generally shit and it's hilarious to see sam hyde bitch about jon stewart then proceeding to do the exact same thing except for the invalids.

MDE understands that the only way to engage with the culture is by appropriating and subverting its methods and mechanisms.
Love it or loathe it, they are doing a fantastic job at giving the "apolitical"(and therefore implicitly supportive of the current establishment) and liberal absurdist/"ironic" humorists a taste of their own medicine.

And yeah, you're really convincing me that you're just an apolitical bystander who hates all political humor equally by referring to MDE's audience as invalids.

how so? what exactly are they saying?
all they've done are 4chan-tier references to alpha males, how miscegenation is bad. and a david duke name-drop.
the reason they can't properly articulate what they want to say is that what they want to say is that it translates to the literal serious posts by autistic stormfags on 4chan. and also the reason it's only funny to invalids.
>And yeah, you're really convincing me that you're just an apolitical bystander who hates all political humor equally by referring to MDE's audience as invalids.
i never thought jon stewart or any of the daily show hosts were funny. but their message at the end of the day was good-natured. the difference between american liberal satire and sam hyde is what's underlying it, but you're evidently too autistic to see that.

There was absolutely nothing good-natured about the deliberate way in which Stewart and his ilk have gone out of their way to turn their audience into simple-minded, complacent cretins.
They've done nothing but encourage severe intellectual laziness and mindless demonization of any perceived opponents, up to a point where there's a legitimate bit of brainwashing to the whole thing.

I've asked myself a lot whether Sammy boy is cultured or reads a lot. He's name-dropped a lot of stuff in the past, and his comedy seems a step up from what most people are doing. But other times, he comes off as a complete moron.

I think he does try to be cultured and well-read. But keep in mind that the guy is an art/film student (can't remember which), so it isn't really his scene. It's kind of like a worse version of Cliff from Better Than Food: he tries and that's admirable enough, but I don't think he can hack it quite.

I don't think you understand. I like Sam when he does actual satire (which can, as you know, be political) but he frequently just soapboxes in a way that isn't funny or interesting.

I also don't consider MDE to be all that deep, or like a biting critique of our culture or whatever. The fact that some people do probably leads to self-importance and hence the """alt-right""" proselytizing.

>> No.8799826

>>8799789
It's basically about a man who wastes his life away because he's in denial of his situation. I think that's what Sam is trying to evoke in a lot of his videos, that there's an entire generation of people who have no motivation or goals or experience, who go to college because their parents told them it would fix their life. And when it doesn't, they smoke pot, they fuck, they waste their life away doing things that their friends or family told them they "need" to do, and before they know it they're 40 years old with a shitty job and a cunt of a wife and they have nothing to live for. That's just my interpretation though

Woah
Where did that come from? I'm as happy as anyone else on this site. I don't think you need to be Harold Bloom to be a comedian, but I'm just being realistic about Hyde's intelligence and level of culture. I mean, the guy's in serious danger of considering himself some kind of redpill messiah figure. The whole HydeWars thing makes me nervous. It's fine if it's gonna be just him and Charles shooting the shit, but I can't be fucked with a guy, who's idea of a philosopher is Stefan Molyneux, shooting hour-long vids about his world-view.

His Ted Talk was some of the mot biting satire I've seen on the internet. Nobody's ever skewered the whole tech-utopian bullshit as well as he has. But if he starts making serious videos about government cults or living in a simulation, then I'm out.

This pretty much. Sam is on the same level as Jon Stewart, but instead of being steeped in sarcasm and the stand-up tradition, Sam is an ironist and a sketch comic. He's "smart" in the same way that Jon Stewart was "smart" as host of the Daily Show, but neither are insightful intellectuals nor comic geniuses. I haven't seen much of MDE and he's funny, but from what I've seen he skewers particularly easy political targets much the same way Jon Stewart did in the Daily Show's heyday.

He's developed an ego so big he thinks his shit don't stink and his "comedy" has stagnated as a result. On top of that there's the insecurity about his masculinity (from not having a dad) that comes through when he touches that subject, also resulting in him fucking trannies.

Hyde and MDE are hit and miss. I enjoy the show sometimes but his politics is very drawn out. He' comes across as pretentious and arrogant, which is carefully crafted to appeal to the alt-right and it's easy to suspect him of trying to pull a Kaufman.
