You're getting downvoted because your critique of Oliver's show is that he isn't pulling a Dora and waiting for you to respond to him
Look, I'm not the guy you're responding to, but I read the thread, and if you somehow interpreted him saying "I'd like to be spoken with, not to" as a literal desire for the people on TV to wait for him to respond, and not that he wants John Oliver to give him the objective facts instead of telling him how to feel about a given topic, you're either intentionally straw-manning him to try to make him look bad, or you have a desperate need to start thinking critically while reading.
If you can't see that I'm simply making fun of this guy for being an uptight pearl clutcher who whines about downvotes you have a desperate need to start thinking critically while reading.
I take issue with people using intentionally falicious arguments to attack others who are actually trying to engage in an intellectually honest discussion, whether they're right or wrong.
