Oh no. Anyway…

At least Oz was an accomplished heart surgeon before he turned to grifting. This guy can't even claim that much.

I hope he dies alone and penniless.

Go antiwoke go broke

Dr Phil is a prick. The end.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

just like tim allens anti-woke show that never made headlines, and jerry seinfeld with his wierd commercial.

tim allens anti-woke show

Last Man Standing? I accidentally caught a bit of that. Tim Allen was a grandparent complaining that his kids weren't allowing him to brainwash his grandkids. About the most boomer coded shit I've ever seen.

Now that I think about it, I never really liked the episode of Home Improvement where they made environmentalists into strawmen and punching bags.

edit: oh god, he made another one.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Welp, that was inevitable.

I hope Dr. Phil ends up with incurable syphilis of the taint.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Those taint scars that may appear like syphilis were actually left behind from Oprah's vice grip.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

he should go to MEMHET OZ for some snakesoil cure.

Woke = compassion. GQP hates compassion.

It's my hope that Dr. Phil eats a shotgun as he pulls the trigger.

I don't have compassion for the GQP/Trump-ers/MAGAts, I wish them the worst, and I'll do my part to deliver before I'm deported/imprisoned.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 days ago

what's GQP? is that just gop with a q swapped in because q?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

woke= anything conservatives doesnt like that makes them uncomfortable, usually around bigotry ,race, gender, poc not following thier "social norms"/.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

I haven't really watched Dr Phil's stuff and have been basically only at best 'aware' of its existence, but it's so strange to me that someone who's supposed to be a therapist is against 'wokeness'. You literally have people who are victims of harassment who need your help, the very help you are supposed to be a specialist in providing, and your answer is 'I hate you'?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Didn't you know that compassion has no place in "Christian" America?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Whenever I hear about Dr. Phil I think of this

May he rot in the hell he believes in.

Oprah unleashed a lot of harm

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I wonder if she feels any shame

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

She's still a billionaire, so no.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The Daily Wire (bssically Ben Shapiro)'s streaming service/movie production branch is also going financially tits up lately.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

he also harbored gina caranos anti-woke, pro conservative movie once.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Don't forget ladyballers, which was originally supposed to be a basically 'opinionated' documentary where just some of the gang try to sign up for an actual, realworld basketball league, as women.

This original concept of the movie was scrapped after they were told they would all have to actually start on HRT and progress to the point that their metabolic panels came back showing they were now within whatever parameters that local/minor league used as their definition of 'sufficiently transitioned', and none of the crew/actors would do it.

So, they made it into a fucking terrible 'comedy' movie instead.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

worst part is that's their most successful thing they've made so far, its going super great for them over there lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

They lost Candace, they lost... female Ben Shapiro Gen Z fake streamer studio set but doesn't actually have live chatters... I forget her name... they lost Crowder even further back, though in hindsight that was actually them dodging a bullet...

But girl Shapiro, she was supposed to be Snow White in their version of Snow White.

Looks like that is probably never happening.

Also the main like co-founder guy along with Shapiro, Jeremy Boring, I think?

Yeah he was the CEO.

He's not anymore, he's out, because he is fucking terrible with money and technology, they're gonna have to keep downsizing their operations to dig themselves out of the hole they're in...

But, even that will be difficult, as the same thing that happens to all right wing talking heads is now happening to them:

They spend 5 years or a decade or whatever ratcheting up extremism, and then their audience exceeds them in extremism, gets pissed at them for not being extreme enough, and then they waffle around and get left behind, their audience now moving to ... new blood, some new, even more insane talking head.

Not woke, go broke.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Does this mean his ice show is gone?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

Broke mind virus strikes again!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

Good. Get fucked "Dr" Phil.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

What a shame. /s

[–] [email protected] 76 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Fuck Phil McGraw. He's a dumb prick who actively makes the world a worse place with his bottom of the barrel trashy TV shows.

Good news.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I agree but that's not his worst evil on our society. It's the torture camps he sent kids to and promoted.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

It's shocking just how evil normal every day things are. We gotta shut down all those camps

[–] [email protected] 54 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You mean dr. Phil the guy who invented the bum fights video series back in the early 2000s?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

There's zero reason to take credit away from the bum fights guy for his own brand of trash, but you can definitely say you mean Dr. Phil, the guy who saw profit and value in doing a bit with the bum fights guy for views.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You are correct. They are equal parts trash, one just had a national TV show he spewed his "folksy" wisdom on.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

They both exploit desperate people for profit, but one of them is honest about doing so. The other one is just misery porn camouflaged as therapy.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago

Get wrecked, fucker

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 days ago
[–] [email protected] 46 points 4 days ago

Gotta be real embarrassing to have your anti woke crusade fail in this climate.

[–] [email protected] 65 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Hopefully, this caused a lot of personal financial harm for him.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And stress on his cardiac muscles.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And stress on his cardiac muscles.

I like the sentiment, but I'm not certain that he has a heart.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

That's why I used different words 🤪🤪
