I'm absolutely on board... but why John Oliver? Why him in particular?
I have no idea on why. But it's hilarious.
I suppose to make John Oliver acknowledge what's going on in Reddit. And make at least a little remark on his show.
You know, he has a real rebel sexiness about him. Like a librarian who makes a lot of noise.
*gasp* so taboo
Iβm not even his target audience (Iβm further left), but Iβve seen some clips of his show and heβs funny, would be neat to have a sort of "Downfall of Corporate Social Media" episode featuring spez. Iβd watch that.
I feel like he would enjoy saying enshittification
He has previously mentioned specific Redditors on his show. So this might be a clever way to get him to do an episode in the meltdown at Reddit.
Because heβs peak sexiness obviously.
Really this is just r/pics admitting that all pictures not of john Oliver were really just fooling themselves
@Spitz how do you not know john oliver? he's the guy that look lime a maniquin with a square head thick accent and a beack nose, used to be on john stewart, but now has his on show on hbo.
@J4g2F @lvxferre
I didn't ask who he was. I asked why pick him especially for the malicious compliance thing.
