Exactly!

I've watched Patriot Act and I think that Minhaj does his own form of race-baiting by labeling people as racist just for not toeing his own line. He also spouts a lot of innuendo. I don't see him as the most objective social commentator out there, even if he does cauche his bias in wit.

Aww come on now!That's your white privilege talking. Hush up!

Race is a simplified American concept? Just because you're uncomfortable with the idea of racism and want to brush it under the carpet doesn't mean it's not real or not global.

@@TheDrepirela im not even white, im 100% of indian descent.

nicole lawrence am a white woman and also a huge fan! ☺️

I’m a white European woman and I’m also a huge fan of Hasan. He’s right that the internet makes a huge difference. When I was young, we couldn’t watch American Late Night shows in Europe. Now we can watch segments on KZfaq, and that’s how Hasan became my favourite correspondent on the Daily Show. I think for the majority of people, what colour their favourite comedians are is not really important. If they are good, you Will relate to them even if your background and experiences are vastly different from theirs. I love that these days so many English speaking comedians tour everywhere, also in countries where English is not the first language, but maybe the third or fourth... In 2018, I saw Russell Peeters and Trevor Noah here in Antwerp (Belgium). Both had very mixed audiences, all skin colours, different age ranges,... Russell performed in a theatre, Trevor in a small stadium.

@Message from Monnie I wasn't talking to other black people, I was talking to white people who DO worry about the color of Hasan's skin. If you must know, I'm 1/2 black and 1/2 black AF. 🤨

Calling attention to your color and gender was completely unnecessary. Cringe.

@@nicolelawrence7722 ☝🏽THIS! 👏🏽👊🏽

It's Jon, not John

john oliverrrrrrrrrrrr

Who the fuck is John Stewart

Jon is the Jewish Yoda

I dig the references, even when I don't fully understand them. It's what google is for..

I am whiter than printer paper and I love Hasan's show. It's called context clues and google people! It's such a weird question, like, what's he going to do? tone down the brown? He incorporates personal life experience into his comedy. 'My friend Jamal, I mean Jeremy'... it's so silly.

so white people have all the same culture ? Hmm weird. All brown people have the same culture too ?? Also Hasan seems more like an American with Indian backgound. Not brown India culture thing

true, but he had good q's. It's not a comedy show.

Interviewer is so boring! Seems as though he's got a dozen better things he'd rather be doing. Collectively, we wish he had chosen one of those instead!

for real i am like if he looks at his notes one more time,

miranda pow did you quit school after elementary?

He keeps asking questions without bothering to actually have a conversation. It's like he's just trying to get to the bottom of the list. Plus he says um wayyy to much for someone who's being paid to do this.

Ikr

@@sweetaman1993 well he actually has to get to the bottom of the list ... there is limited time and they want to do audience questions afterwards.. its not like this is his show and he can do what he wants

This part was really funny he rosted interviewer right away you can see on his face

Patriot Act? New eps every sunday

Yeah it's on Netflix and KZfaq

Hasan you have a slim small face , handsome face and half of it is covered with hair.You are sooooo more handsome without this ugly beard.Ask your wife.She is very beautiful.Even trim it shorter.

He was hysterical.

He, I and many/most muslim outside Saudi Arabia had always this odd feelings, dislike for Saudi family. Feelings like, Why does this colonial powers backed family brand our holyland, Arabia as call it Saudi Arabia. Fahd and Abdullah were no saints, but MBS crossed all limit in Yemen. Arabia today is not much different North Korea, just that people have little more material stuff to keep them distracted. We muslims have tons of love for holyland but we will oppose MBS and perhaps not visit Mecca till MBS is in power.

When there is autocracy, the biggest worry for the world is that the people not support it out of ignorance as in the case of Hitler, but with MBS, he has no people support. Of course, he has crazy money and crazy political power but still as long as he doesn't have popular support, there is hope for a revolution.

I wish Hasan demonstrates the same courage and criticize Israel because both Saudi Arabia and Israel are authoritarian regimes with the worst human rights abuses to their record. Let's be honest, in the western world, criticizing Saudi Arabia is seen as progressive but if you dare criticize Israel then you're conveniently labelled an antisemite. This blatant hypocrisy needs to end if we truly care about justice and human rights for all.

Facts!

wrong.

That uncle was like ...dont listen to him son

they'll never do one about Israel, that is such a packed topic. you have to go through so much history, probably the time of Abrahamic religions fighting over the middle east to the Holocaust to today.

Lol, everyone knows you cant say shit about Israel that isnt absolute praise. They will immediately shut the show down and call it anti-semetic and not a single person can go against them. They have a monopoly on this bullshit.

I think the reason people are upset is because the interviewer is treating it more like an interrogation then a chat between two intellectual people. He wants the answers given in a very specific kind of way rather than the organic way a conversation is supposed to flow. If you watched any of Hassan's other interviews you'll find you can later re-watch them because they are interesting and funny. They put a cut an dry interviewer to question a comedian for almost an hour. I lost interest in what he had to say after 10 minutes. Honestly Hassan proved how well he can handle social situations that may leave other people discouraged or disinterested.

I agree with you. I didnt find it hard to watch. Yes the interviewers wasnt the best, but I am sure he will get better with time, his questions were good, even the ones that I found controversial like the one on people watching the show, it was well handled by Hassan, and probably made a good reference point that Hassan can refer back to. I enjoyed the interview despite wanting to host to be better, it didnt take away from the show for me... actually only one thing did, starting with the housing keeping of not making comments, if at all say that before the question segment not before the entire interview...that tone wasnt a good set up.. just trying to look at both sides of the argument... but ultimately, I still completely enjoyed watching the interview :)

Ich will auch die ganze Nacht wach

congratulations

But many are not interested.

as if his show had ANYTHING to do with his skin color... It's 2019 for god's sake.

Berta Griese there are plenty of people who will have issues with his skin color. Either as genuine hatred or just trolling. Welcome to America.

We are a global human race. We’re in a time where we need to learn from everyone to be at our best.

Considered a low score in India b/c their high schools are more like our Ivy League universities, Harvard, for some reason I can't remeber another one.....Indian's kids ace schools like that b/c they've alreayd had that level of education in high school. So his SAT scores is low, relative to most other scores of Indian HS graduates.

abbie4949 I think you misunderstood my comment. I was laughing at how low it is.

He only laughed at Hasan's basketball references, and then belly laughed when audience members said something stupid or making a mistake which . was kind of mean and I think Hasan was a little embarassed.

You should try something in India

He has a platform, an interview is for interruption

@@matenagy5854 True, but Hassan has interviewed with many people before and none of them made me this aggravated. He doesn't have a feel for timing and it makes it very awkward. It's like Hassan is trying to lighten things up and make the interview more relaxed and interesting to follow. But the interviewer is treating it more like an interrogation then an interview. He wants questions answered in a specific way and will revisit the questions even when the question was already answered more or less.

@@matenagy5854 an interview is not for interruption at all--journalists are taught to let a conversation flow and definitely aren't suppose to blandly recite question after question. And before anyone rebuttals with time-constraint claims, he should be prepared with priority questions and optional ones. Or perhaps they let the original interview take its natural course and edit it afterwards to fit the hour; making two versions.

The New Yorker guy was better

Definitely especially when he's reading quotes/notes lol.

Too many "UHM"s and "UH"s. I almost turned it off, but I wanted to hear Hasan.

Fellas! Let's relax. There's enough hate and anger in this world. Let's try to empathize and understand each other's perspective. Spread love, not hate! Put the right energy into the universe, and that includes every little comment on social media. :)
