Kaysee | Mar 24, 2024 |    ) tuckerresearch | Jan 12, 2024 | kwskultety | Jul 4, 2023 | I have been an avid watcher of Mr. Gutfeld’s television shows since the days of Red Eye, which Fox News aired at 3am EST starting in 2007. I have followed his shows across the TV schedule because I find him funny and even being sarcastic and utilizing satire he makes sense GG uses satire, sarcasm, humor, and examples to point out the silliness of the liberal left, conservative right and both sides need to divide us as a society. Throughout “The Joy Of Hate”, he takes aim at both ideology sides pointing out the hypocrisy and spin. Hollywood stars, television journalists, political bloggers, educational institutions, government departments.... No one is safe from the spotlight of satire and humor that GG shines on people, politicians, various industries and events in the recent past. The book was published in 2012 so while some of the topics are no longer current he makes excellent points. Pointing out the hypocrisy of: ⁍Tea Party vs occupy protests ⁍Obesity and promiscuity ⁍Two women being called sluts - one a liberal the other a conservative. ⁍How conservative minorities are called racial does with no blowback Added bonus is that the chapter titles are puns or satire of common sayings i.e.: ⁍Winners and Looters, ⁍Unreal Estate, ⁍Poop Stars, ⁍Working at the Death Star, ⁍Harmed Forces.... RECOMMEND? I recommend this book to anyone who is not offended by salty language, sexual innuendo, and can handle seeing their “political team” eviscerated. This review appeared on my website. DISCLAIMER I received via the OverDrive/Libby app from the Harris County or Houston Public Library system. It was read as a Kindle eBook.

HTML:From the irreverent star of Fox News??s Red Eye and The Five, hilarious observations on the manufactured outrage of an oversensitive, wussified culture. Greg Gutfeld hates artificial tolerance. At the root of every single major political conflict is the annoying coddling Americans must endure of these harebrained liberal hypocrisies. In fact, most of the time liberals uses the mantle of tolerance as a guise for their pathetic intolerance. And what we really need is smart intolerance, or as Gutfeld reminds us, what we used to call common sense. The Joy of Hate tackles this conundrum head on??replacing the idiocy of open-mindness with a shrewd judgmentalism that rejects stupid ideas, notions, and people. With countless examples grabbed from the headlines, Gutfeld provides readers with the enormous tally of what pisses us all off. For example: - The double standard: You can make fun of Christians, but God forbid Muslims. It's okay to call a woman any name imaginable, as long as she's a Republican. And no problem if you're a bigot, as long as you're politically correct about it. - The demonizing of the Tea Party and romanticizing of the Occupy Wall Streeters. - The media who are always offended (see MSNBC lineup) - How critics of Obamacare or illegal immigration are somehow immediately labeled racists. - The endless debate over the Ground Zero Mosque (which Gutfeld planned to open a Muslim gay bar next to). - As well as pretentious music criticism, slow-moving ceiling fans, and snotty restaurant hostesses. Funny and sarcastic to the point of being mean (but in a nice way), The Joy of Hate points out the true jerks in this society and tells them al Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
