The Daily Show - Race/Off 

10:21 (re:racism) _"You're tired of _*_hearing_*_ about it? Imagine how f*cking exhausting it is living it."_ Well said.

Anyone watching this in 2020 while Minneapolis protests and burns as the country replays 2014-15 all over again?

Watching this in 2017. A black citizen did almost exactly as Sean Hannity described. He was shot like 7 times.

"Why all the interest in holding police officers to a higher standard than gangs?" PREACH JON *yes i know this is years old*

6 years later and everything that Jon said still applies today. He is deeply missed on TV

"You're tired of hearing about it, imagine how F*****g exhausting is is living it." He nailed it Perfectly. The Mindset for most people is, "it doesn't happen to me, so it must not happen at all."

"See, you being ignorant of those attempts doesn't mean the issue itself is being ignored, in the same way that when it snows where you live doesn't mean the world isn't getting hotter." MIC DROP! God, I miss Jon... Trevor Noah is also killing it tho, this is just the Nostalgia in me talking.

4:34 when recently a black man did exactly that and still got shot while still sitting in his car in front of his infant child and wife.... but whatever Sean Hannity....

"You're tired of hearing about it, imagine how tired people are living it", true words. Thanks John Stewart

I'm watching back on this man's videos. And my respect for him just grows and grows with every word he says.

This is going to be relevant for the rest of my life isn't it...

It just boggles my mind that even with this 10 minute explanation, there are still some people out there who still. Won't. Fucking. Get. It.

i love how people who obviously arent black nor a minority of color have sooooooo much to say about how it is to be non white in this country. petty theft does not equate to being shot twice in the head. no one deserves that no matter what race. as a black male living in this country ive been racially profiled by cops and its demoralizing that i cant even make it home from work in uniform without being hassled because i look like i may be in a gang. you can never imagine the anger that builds inside of you when you know youre being judged by something as stupid as the color of your skin which you have no control over.

Jon's commentary here was relevant then and is just as relevant now.

"Did you just 'he who smelt it dealt it' racism?!" God, that is just perfect.

As much as I love John Oliver, Trevor Noah, Seth Meyers, etc....there really is just no replacing Jon Stewart. He was the master, the king, the OG, and I miss him sooooo much😞

This is so absolutely true. I lived in the the US south and was working at one of the top scientific research institutions in the country. I had a black colleague who was a well-regarded scientist and we went out for lunch a few times. Every single time he suffered from racism, especially because he was accompanied by a white woman. I was in shock to see how blatant racism is in the US and I even lost my patience at a restaurant where he was mistreated. it was appalling. Anyone who says race is not the problem here is a bigot himself.

Sean Hannity carries a gun around. Worrying.

Holy shit... that last statement.

These comments are going: 5 years ago; 4 years ago; 3 years ago; 3 weeks ago; 2 weeks ago; 2 days ago; 1 day ago 12 hours ago; 1 second ago They're all saying the same thing. Nothing has changed.

Another example of why so many people are turning to Comedy Central for news & opinion and not the major networks.

I miss this man.

Thank you John Stewart for explaining mine and every other black person's struggle and attempting to try and get it through the thick skulls of those who refuse to listen

Sean Hannitty says the right thing to say when you have a gun is "Officer I have a legal firearm in the car." So what was his excuse with Philando Castile?

I heard of a Black University Professor that has a routine when he drives at night. He places his driver's licence, his registration and his insurance on the dash right above the wheel so that he doesn't have to reach for them. And he's been doing this for years.

This is one of my favourite segments of Stewart's. It goes to show that he gets it - that he, on some level, can comprehend the level of discrimination that us POC face on a daily basis. And if this segment strikes a chord with you, regardless of your colour, then you, too, can empathise on some level with our struggle. And I thank you for not turning a blind eye to it. We can only, together, create meaningful change. P.S. #Bernie2016

"So we live in New York City, a liberal bastion- *applause* - let me finish." Jon is the fed up dad America needs.

5 years on. Nothing has changed. It’s gotten worse.

This clip deserves an Academy Award for it's pertinence, truthful comment and well written and expertly performed satire of a news report with common sense as its premise and truth as its content. I watch it at least once a week to remind myself of how far the mainstream media has gone into the pockets of corporate owners and their agendas and why the Daily Show became the gold standard of journalism even though it was intended to be a comedy show. The funny part, or serious part depending on how you look at things, is that they use actual film of real "reporters" and politicians and experts saying some of the most ridiculous, stupid, idiotic crap I ever heard. It also illustrates why there needs to be a law or regulation against networks like Fox News to cease and desist calling themselves a news station or misrepresenting the facts of a story while pretending to be journalists. Stewart is more real and pertinent than ANY other news reporters or anchors, especially the folks at Fox under right wing dissonant and traitor, Rupert Murdoch. The Daily Show illustrates how bad things have gotten between the PC culture and the "Lie to your face, evangelical brainwashing corporate representing scum" they call journalists at Fox News. Long Live John Stewart!

"He who smelt it dealt it, racism?" i absolutely lost it. That is exactly what he did. John you make the horrifying truths so much easier to handle.

Jon Stewart needs to return, especially now after George Floyd

Trevor is doing a pretty good job, but Jon Stewart is the GOAT.

5 years later and we need Stewart now more than ever

Jon Stewart is the realest. I had to slow clap at the end. That last line holds so much truth it's sad and ridiculous.

This show was never the same after he retired, always liked watching him

Anyone come back to this after the Ahmaud Arbery shitshow?

Jon has set a standard that no late night show host will ever reach. I miss you man!

He told no lies!

It’s not too late Jon, you could still run for President.

"You being ignorant of the facts does not mean the issue is being ignored." -Jon Stewart, perfect quote.

John, will you please be president

Almost 5 years later and Jon still makes me weepy eyed. Thank you for your service.

I came back to this after what has happened to George Floyd. If I had never seen this video and you told me it happened yesterday, I would depressingly be not shocked whatsoever.

You can tell John is getting more and more real as the show comes to an end for him.

I love how people think they have it all figured out if you get into a situation with the cops. "Well I would have just..." "If only he just..." there's no if only anything. Having nothing threatening about you other than the color of your skin isn't exactly something you can correct..."excuse me officer, lemme put my light skin back on real quick" sounds a little silly

"You're tired of hearing about it? Imagine how fucking exhausting is is living it." 6 years later, it's still happening. This is sickening. We need you back, Jon.

6:52 "Forget that in Ferguson 94% of the police are white, and 63% of the people are black, forget that 92% of police-searches and 86% of car-stops are for black people. Forget that the white local goverment finances nearly a quarter of of its anual budget through the fines and penatlies, disproportianaly leveled against the black portion of the population, FORGET THAT THE HISTORY OF THIS TOWN INCLUDES THIS TASTY NUGGET 7:13" Everytime i hear this i just get mad at the US. I'm Dutch and i cannot wrap my head around the fact that this shit happens every single day in the US. I know that i now sound like i am calling everybody in the US racists, but that is not what i am trying to say. Shit like this still happens! As i said, i live in the Netherlands and, i don't care what the US may say, i think that in the Netherlands we have it better on most areas, including racial issues.But i will never say that we are not racist, because in Europe, including the Netherlands, we are redicilously, yes stupidly, bias against the Islam. I cannot give reasons for this, since i also believe that there is no excuse for racism. But since in the 'Western World', where we are so incredibly proud of our 'freedom', and our amazing communities and culture, we still cannot face the fact that we are a bunch of racist ***holes. It really makes me wonder this: "What the F*ck is wrong with us?"

I have a little brother who unfortunately has been targeted because of his skin. He was so scared he refused leaving the house unless I came with him. For a year I took him everywhere, from little things like down the street to buy candy or as far as school. Then one day he came to me and said "If I don't wear clothes cops won't think i have a weapon. Should I try?" As a brother I was heartbroken my own little brother was pushed to this kind of thinking. It's hard being a black man, correction a minority of color. Whites, with a few exceptions, will never understand. I have great respect for those that think this behavior by cops is out of control. And Fox News is despicable for supporting this. They literally feed the fear.

Couldn't have said it any better.

The world needs Jon Stewart as POTUS

This... this held up so well. Nothing has changed.

Without ever using the term, Jon’s takedown of Hannity was one of the best illustrations of what white privilege means I’ll probably ever see. His f’ing privilege is so ingrained you know Hammity had no idea he was displaying it 🤦‍♀️

Jon did some amazing segments on the show during his time, but this has to be up there among the finest. The cast off line is just so brilliant.

Right now this segment is even more relevant! #justiceforfloyd

Interesting what’s said at 4:45. I remember a certain Philando Castile doing exactly what Hannity suggested there. It didn’t save that man‘s life though. And here in 2020 we are again.

Why don't we start with body cameras. Make them mandatory, if a cop does anything without his/her cam on, it cannot be upheld in court. Maybe establish a few civilian oversight committees, or change where the revenue from tickets goes. Several small changes like that would make it far easier to distinguish abuse of power, which is where we need to start.

Wow, we really learned nothing for the last 9 years. This segment is still shockingly relevant.

This man is amazing

John is fantastic, but Trevor is growing on me

We need you back Jon!!!!

Well, if I were a cab-driver, I'd also not be sure whether I want to give Ben Carson a ride.

Always on point!!Jon Stewart is the best!

"YOU TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT IT...IMAGINE HOW EXHAUSTING IT IS LIVING IT"

There is only one race. The human race.

Once again, Fox News getting called out about their hipocrisy, ignorance and racism by, the yet again brilliant, Jon Stewart. Thank you Jon for being the person you are. No seriously, thanks bud!

We need Jon back....!!! Miss him and his intelligence, insight & humor... ALL HANDS ON DECK!!!!!

DAAAAAAMN I WISH HE STILL HAD A SHOW!!

wow ive got goosebumps..finally a famous caucasian brother who understands us....enough respect..GOD bless

Jon Stewart and his writers are like a fine wine...

I wish Jon Stewart was still around to give his take on things. He was so incredibly important to the conversation.

it's almost like bad apples are not the issue when the dungeon that holds the apples is mold infested.. as a lady said this week "they're lucky we ask for equality and not revenge" june 2020

" Racism is there and it is constant. You're tired of hearing it? Imagine how fucking exhausting it is living it."

Outstanding analogy, Thank God for some commonsense. Jon Stewart should create a real news program.

I really hope this piece ages poorly someday, it’s disturbing how relevant it is years later

I'd always get a short clip of Jon Stewart's show during the South Park post-credits but never got around to watching it. At the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak I began watching John Oliver's Last Week Tonight because he had a neat little mini-series of episodes pertaining to the Coronavirus and the handling of the lockdown in various countries. After a number of other episodes I lost interest and, out of curiosity, began watching these clips of the Daily Show. Needless to say I'm sad to have missed a true TV comedy legend and heavy-hitter. Please come back Mr. Stewart!

This is exactly why i like watching the Daily Show.

Jon Stewart is a legend, ignoring a problem isn't going to make it go away.

"Imagine on a pretty regular basis, you can't get a fucking cab, even though you're a neurosurgeon, because you're black." Was- Was that a Ben Carson subtweet

When Sean Hannity describes how he shows the officer his gun, I’m reminded of Philando Castile. I wonder if he was upset about that lawful gun owner being shot and killed by a police officer?

I miss his wit. This segment has stayed with me ever since I saw it when it first came out. Much love, Jon

Some of the truest shit ever spoke by a white man

There will NEVER BE another Jon Stewart. Irreplaceable 💯

Not even exaggerating this is one of the best takes on race relations in America I have ever seen. Jon Stewart for ever!

This is why I love Jon Stewart

Bravo, Mr. Stewart. Well Done!

Barley started watching the daily show few weeks before his last one ...... One of the funniest and real shows. Sucks I was late af to realize this awesome show was out there

"'But who will stand up for all those oppressed Starbucks cups? Why aren't they addressing the *REAL* problem, the vicious and brutal assault on Christmas?? Where is *THAT* outrage?"- Every Fox and MSNBC- watching Karen ever

Every day I see anything from Jon, I remember how much I miss him and his team. Such a unique and crucial voice.

Thanks Mr.Stewart, for speaking the truth!!!!!

All the comments here are some form of "Anyone watching this in [Year X] after [black person] was killed by police?" There are a lot of comments here. This is pretty sad.

Genie: what 3 wishes may I grant you? Me: Jon Stewart back on The Daily Show, and I guess two Pepsi's.

Jon, views like these may be why you may never win another Emmy. Thank you. You have my respect and admiration.

I miss him so much. He really was the country's moral compass.

Dear John, Come back. Love, Everyone.

That last line is incredible.

6 years later, same song different day. This shit never ends

"Stern response by police who appear to be auditioning for RoboCop" This aged well.

This is probably one of the best "Jon Stewart"'s of all time. So relevant, so well presented.

Watching this in 2019 and little has changed?

I miss Jom Stewart so damn much. Can he come back to tv and do news? Doesn't have to be Comedy Central, just come baaack
