The Official "Michael Savage is a Dumbf*ck" Thread
 

Hating on Fox News is so yesteryear, in the world of conservative punditry, there's only one way to beat your competition, and that is to be even louder and stupider than they are. So I introduce you to possibly the most incredibly bigoted person to have a mainstream radio show. Michael Savage.











This guy has a huge YouTube following, that explains a lot doesn't it?

But yeah, if there was a law that allowed each American to kill one person they hate, this is the guy I want dibs on.

reminds me of my friend's dad.

I pfft'd.

Dumbfuck indeed...

I especially love how these guys rant about fascism and dictatorship while at the same time condoning beating your kids for disagreeing with you.

Neo cons at this point are just a bunch of bitter old people who call us the worst generation because we're trying to undo their golden age of opression against people they don't like because they're different.

We have the biggest f*cking burdon ahead of us than any generation before, especially these spoiled rich pundit assh*les who speak for the common joe by speaking out against the "intellectuals", even though guys like Savage were overprivilaged college grads, they don't want you to be a liberal pussy and get a good education, they want you to join the work force and be a real American.

These guys need to keep their audience stupid after all.

And Michael Savage criticizing a religion for being hateful, sexist and homophobic? That's gold.

This guy is pretty much the Peter Griffin of reality.

I would say he's more like Cartman, but he's way too smart and likable to deserve a comparison to him, then again, so is Peter Griffin.

Right wing radio commentators don't concern me that much. Why? I remember when I lived near ottawa there was this guy named lowell green who was on the same trip as michael savage. Most of his listeners were unemployed semi-retired alcoholics, but white, and they got to call in and bitch about immigrants and homosexuals and liberals.Ironically most of the people that call these shows call in the morning when they should be at work, just like the welfare bums they're bitching about.

I think savage and limbaugh, etc. appeal to an entrenched demographic that just doesn't give a fuck, like the guys in the ottawa valley that loved lowell green. Half of them,(like my friends dad for one) couldn't name the local mp to save their ass. They just had a vague notion of what's wrong with society(mgahhh...fatcat bureacrats...arafdf...taxes..immigrants..fff'n chretien.), and bitching about it was just a way to pass the time.I doubt any of them actually voted.

What's more dangerous is the opinions of think tanks being passed off as impartial analysis, and public relations handouts being treated like news from respected sources like CNN.

Michael Savage has a very loyal following and for a guy who clearly condones acts of vigilantism and killing Muslims, I'd say that's something to be concerned about.

I'm pretty concerned about the fact that I have no beer left.
That could mean serious consequences.
Care to intervene?

...while we're ****ting on right wing pundits.

Bill O'Reilly vs. Richard Dawkins




"all of the worst mass murders in history-stalin,hitler,mao,pol pot were confirmed atheists-you could bring up the crusades and al-queda--the country was founded on christian beliefs."

....the guy is unable to hold an argument together.

Heh, at least papa bear tried to make sense.

Now Savage vs Dawkwins, who wouldn't want to see that?

Also, if Christians don't want to be thought of as being retards by secular society, they should start by trying to figure out the difference between Christians and Deists, since the people who consider this nation to be founded on Christianity obviously can't.

As for Hitler being an athiest, I don't know if that's even true or not, I do know he used Christianity to justify his actions, funny papa bear didn't bring that up.

Too much screaming for me...

thats actually the premise of the show.

...the louder you scream the more valid your argument is!!!!!!!!!!!

...sometimes I think Bill O'Reilly is a secret liberal and the O'reilly factor uses that repetitive all in the family plot device ...Archie Bunker spouts ignorant nonsense, and then he gets owned by a black dude thats richer than him, or a *** guy thats stronger than him. I've never seen a pundit get his ass handed to him on such a regular basis.

I thought this was a parody until I realised Americans don't do irony.

Well you're from another country so maybe you don't understand the concept of American punditry.

Basically, the crenditials for being a successful pundit in the American media requires that you know how to yell at people, no political knowledge or journalistic integrity required.

It's mostly just a competition to see who can be the most loud, stupid and obnoxious because that's where the money is at. And yeah, I think Savage is the unbeatable champion.

I don't know why it took so long for people to realise how much of an idiot this guy is, but it seemed his recent comments on autism really did the job.

Glenn Beck may try his hardest, but you just can't beat the master.

Honestly, how many anti-fox news threads can be made on this forum. Soon enough you will surpass the threads having to do with the existence of gods.

In all honesty, I have stopped laughing at a lot of these guys because it happens so damn often. I don't even care about the media. They can do what they want. Even when they are right, their opinions are very shallow. Blogs are really the only good sources of news these days because they go more in depth. Plus, you don't have a bunch of idiots claiming that news shouldn't have a bias. However, what makes the news interesting is the the bias.

I don't think Mr. Savage (which isn't his real last name btw) is talking about the original defintion of Autism but the redefined definition of Autism that includes ADD, ADHS, and other behaviour disorders. I give him the benefit of the doubt on that one, that he's not talking about children who have a exetremely difficult time communictating with other, he is talking about the children who misbehave and are labeled by doctors as ADD or ADHD - when they're not.

Minority children have a higher percentage of asthma, I remember a study and the said one factor of why child who are minority had asthma is because a majority of them live in the inner city, where there was certain pollutants would aggravated their lungs. His point about that was parents who told their children to act like they had asthma.

If he didn't go off on a tangent and go ballistic, the point he was trying to make would had made some sense. I think his whole arguement is about parents, doctors, and programs but I can understand where other people think his arguement is about something else.

He didn't even mention ADD or ADHD, at all, he was talking about straight up autism.

Now if he was just ranting about how everyone thinks they have a disorder, that's one thing, but he clearly said 99% of the kids diagnosed with autism were just being brats and all they need is a good beating, if I was the parent of an autistic kid I'd want that guy's f*cking head mounted on my wall.

Savage is just utterly incapable of relating to anyone different from him, so he can never acknowledge that someone could have a problem that an upper class, middle aged, conservative christian white man doesn't have.

You're a black guy who is poor and can't find a job? Nah you're just being lazy. You're being discriminated against? No you're not. You have AIDS? Too bad, you shouldn't have slept around you whore. Got raped? You must have asked for it. Your kids have a mental disorder? No they don't, you're a bad parent, beat the f*ck out of them.

This is basically how he makes his living. :laughing:

I guess it's pretty easy to fake autism. You just go the doctor to get refered to about 1000 other doctors who refer you to a learning specialist who you shell over a wad of cash for a diagnosis that might not even be autism.

There's also these people that say school accomodations for kids with learning disabilities give them an unfair advantage somehow...they don't do the work for these kids...they just give a kid that's easily distracted an exam in a room that's less distracting, just to give one example.

...you might be confusing kids with add and adhd with kids who are suspected of having a learning disorder and given drugs. An actual diagnosis for a learning disorder isn't that casual.

...and as far as the black kids having asthma, I'd believe that. In the time he was talking about there was probably far less regulation as far as air quality, housing quality, and zoning was concerned...I'm not that educated on the subject but I'm willing to believe it wasn't just mass hysteria.There was probably some parents that exploited they're kids, but there had to be an actual problem in the first place to make it an easy situation to exploit.

Mein Kampf is an interesting read. The first half of the book is basically him writing about how he was raised catholic but had a falling out with the church. He had a hard for science but ended up back at some form of nondescript Christianity when he realized he was too stupid for science.

A child that has servere degree of Autism isn't faking. So I don't know what you are talking about. Not every person with Autism behaves the same. I talk to parents who have Autistic child, so I know a little about it, and I'm not against them. I don't agree how Mr. Savage behaved, and how he handled the issue, but I'm going to deny sometimes children are misdiagnosed.

Learning Disability is another one that has a wide spectrum of issues. If a person has math level is two years ahead of his English level then he has a LD. So what type of LD are thinking of? nevermind

The whole problem with this whole arguement is semantics, what specific ASD and LD are you and Mr. Savage talking about - they are umbrella terms that cover a wide spectrum of issues.

.....michael savage says autism "99% of the time" is an excuse for bad behaviour...it's an excuse that requires a hell a lot of a work, and appointments and stress. Yes a select few parents are bleeding hearts, but for the most part the diagnosis of any kind of mental disability requires too much effort for it to be a lazy parenting move.He probably thinks unless you act like the rainman than you can't be autistic.My whole point was that Mike was talking in generalities.

It's a douchey move to bring up personal experience, but I remember when I was in kindergarten and I got in trouble for not listening to teachers and not being polite or participating in activities...it wasn't because I was trying to cause sh*t, I honestly didn't know what the hell was going on.I was subjected to the "good old fashioned discipline" approach cause I lived in some hick town....I didn't get diagnosed with a learning disability til I was 20 was far removed that town....

I'm personally familiar with the Mr.Savage archetype and I'd like to say he's full of ****....and that the no nonsense approach has probably made him the optimistic and cheery person you heard in that clip.

I took that as a hyperbole, because it's not like he actually took time to do research to arrive at that number. ( I'm not defending what he's saying about autism.)

Those talk show hosts just make comments about news, and then they themselfves become the news, it just goes 'round and 'round. Each one puts a little different interpretation & spin to it. For some hosts it's provocative, and other it's half news half entertainment. There is nothing different from them and us, the only thing that makes them differnt from us is they're holding the microphone to a forum uses radio and telephones.

I understand what he does is commentary--but there is a difference between between ordinary conjecture and spouting utter bull****. He may not literally mean 99% of the time, but he's still implying through hyperbole that most cases of autism are fraudulent...which is a lie.

..there is a difference between him and me....he's an ignorant asshole and a bully, and I try my hardest not to be.

LOL WUT?

I remember that show, I also remember when MSNBC fired him.
Which was because of this...



Yeah, kinda tells you how much of a liberal bias MSNBC has, not for firing the guy, but for finding the stupidist conservative pundit they could find and hiring him in the first place.

Savage makes his sanest point evar.

"Our most important and inconsequencial inventions have come almost exclusively from white males"

:rofl:

What a retard. What is this guy's problem? is this a contest between the races?

What about all the stuff Asians invented? This guy seriously believes the only things the Chinese invented is paper and gunpowder?

Or how about Muslims, those barbaric savages as we know them? What did they ever invent for us? Other then modern chemistry, modern medicine, several academic disciplines and a variety of legal and educational institutions. But who cares about that sh*t?

I never cared for the term "White" because it discribes the colour of ones skin not one's cultural background. I don't think half of the men Michael Savage would consider themselves "white" they were Jewish, Greek, & Italian (among other nationalities.) For example the Greek would considered themselves from the city-state or area in Greece they lived in not the colour of their skin. The majority of them are part of the Western Tradition base on ancient Greek, Roman, and Jewish culture, among other influences.
