Ants fans...
0 2015-04-27 by maynardsabeast
We are all obviously fans of Anthony but his new core of fans are generally pretty god damn insufferable. It's not a core of comedy fans anymore, Ants hardcore fans are a group of hardcore neo cons and racists. Maybe not full on racists, but people that care way too much about race. Basically the types that own "don't tread on Me" stickers and flags. Arguing with them is terrible, within 2 exchanges you will be called some kind of "liberal", and they will start spitting these pre packaged statistics at you. It's a shame, Ant has turned into a 100% Fox News rhetoric spewing curmudgeon. His fans have generally lost a lot of either respect or just interest in him, which leaves him with his bread and butter demographic of 40+year old, angry white guys the types that tell you how Obama is a Muslim that is only concerned about taking away your guns, and minorities and immigrants are responsible for all their problems. These fans are 10x worse than their God Anthony is, and that says a lot cuz almost every single day Anthony becomes worse and worse. I don't understand how a man (a succesful wealthy man) can spend so much of his time thinking about and discussing black people. I'll be the first person to admit to you the problems in that community but the only time I think about it is when I see it. Anthony seems to be dwelling on it every minute. It used to be cute and funny, now it's angry and overwhelming.

You're not really wrong. The bigger these yokels become as a percentage of the TACS fanbase, the less likely we'll ever see Ant at SXM again. The majority broadcasters aren't trying to cater to the Stormfront demographic. Fox News/Breitbart/Blaze-type conservatives -- sure. But actual fucking white supremacists (or "white nationalists," or "European-American rights advocates" or whatever the fuck you want to call it)? Forget about it. Red Eye would have a hard time touching him. The "Nazi" or "racist" labels that liberals arbitrarily throw at conservatives would literally apply.
Yes, it's his show and all his equipment and he's got the freedom to say whatever he wants, but this monotonous "Racial Justice Warrior" Anthony is going to keep him relegated to a public-access-level subscription service (yeah yeah, Manhattan studio coming, whatever). I guess that's great for the niche of people who love getting into white-man-persecution-complex circlejerks, but it sucks for those of us who may have entertained some far off hope of SXM letting him back on one day. Oh well.

Why wouldnt I admit anything? I have always been open with what I think. I agree with some of what he wrote, disagree with other things, but in totality I think he is viewing everything from the wrong lens.

Every time I read one of your posts I can't help but picture a 14 year old kid with wrestling posters on his wall and soda cans all over the floor. I don't know what it is, but something about the way you write makes you seem very immature and a bit stupid.
Oh, also your opinion is dumb.
6 jimcozad 2015-04-27
Hahahahahaha nailed it. He's an angry baby boy.
-10 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
The only reason I recognize your name is cuz whenever someone replies to me in a really cunty way I check his name and think to myself "that damn slippery slope guy, always fucking with me!"....not really sure how to reply to this, I don't drink soda and I have no "posters" on my wall. As far as my opinion being dumb, I think your view on that is strictly coming from a place where you are dying to know what Anthony's cock feels like inside your mouth so wheneber someone says something bad about him you think it's "dumb". Your reply right here blows cuz in this particular thread I'm only really spitting facts. Anthony's demeanor and style have certainly drastically changed in the past few years and his politics and racism have definitely taken the front seat over his comedy. His demographic is absolutely old white dudes that spend their TV time watching History channel marathons and live by the motto "don't tread on me". The type of guys that love nothing more than a free t shirt from Budweiser or their local unions and police. A bunch of regular Joes that can't stand the persecution of the white man these days and aren't gonna stand for it! (Except they totally are)
5 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
whoaaaa there cowboy, you are making a lot of assumptions in the second part your post.
-7 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
Assumptions based on experiences talking to, meeting, and observing my subjects. Kind of how Ant does every day with black people. And just like Ant I shouldn't have to clarify that I don't mean "every single one", just a large, majority portion
4 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
lol, who have you met in real life that is an Anthony supporter?
You have no idea what the large majority of his demographic is like, especially in such detail. The only thing I will give is that they are more libertarian oriented. But, that does not equate to being that vivid caricature of a "redneck" that you described.
2 OneForty1 2015-04-27
Not to mention Anthony ALWAYS finds facts to back up whatever he is saying. Whether they fit with the argument or not is yours to decide. But your "facts" are nothing more than baseless accusations.
2 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
are you talking to me?
On a side note, I agree about facts in general. But facts can always be manipulated in certain ways to support a given point. However, I havent seen him do that.
5 OneForty1 2015-04-27
No sir. Refering to OP. I daisy-chained under your comment because you brought up a thorough response that should be read before mine.

I didn't say redneck. And I've met plenty, been a fan for 15 years, I've been to Jims shows, events, and frequented O&A related message boards for years. I've also noticed the extreme shift in fans in the past 2 years
3 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
Oh god, you are one of those losers. No offense man.
-1 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
I'm a loser cuz I've seen Jimmys stand up a few times live and frequent the same message board as you? I honestly shouldn't of said events, I actually went to a Stern event when I was in high school, but besides Jimmys shows (where o&a were, which are essentially events for the show) I've never been to one. But I've seen the pictures. Just check out the pictures of Anthony's poker event and tell me I'm wrong
3 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
Thats not what you said. You essentially said that you have been an "active fan" for 15 years. Believe me, if I still have this mild interest in this non productive "hobby" in that long, please pm me and call me an idiot.
But I shouldnt call you out on that though, to each his own.
As far as the other thing is concerned, "events" by their very nature bring out the minority of the group known as "super fans". Im sure its not an active indication. Even if it was, dont forget where you started this whole diatribe, talking about Anthonys supporters. Thats a different animal from the tangent you went on.
-1 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
Yes I'm from NY and have been listening on and off for 15 years. Basically any of the times I was in a car or work vehicle during the times O&a were on, and i had the channel, I would listen. Some years it was a lot, some not at all.
1 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
Thats fair enough man, certainly not trying to call you out for taking an interest in passive entertainment.

0 Flamgirlant 2015-04-27
Dicis was absolutely great, but it's not at all representative of what his show's like. If anything, Dicis can be used as an example of why Ant's show is not good - he almost never does shit like this.
-5 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
Anthony is still funny, he just spends less and less time focusing on it. This clip is pretty funny, even though If Opie had a famous dice impression he'd be getting beat up for constantly leaning on a 30 year old irrelevant crutch
7 marc2w 2015-04-27
im liking his shows so far for the most part i do think he needs a cohost though
-3 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
Yeah he desperately needs a co host. The show is alright. Ant used to be the only conservative voice that I enjoyed listening to and respected his opinions. He even convinced and swayed me on certain issues. I feel like in the past year or 2 though he's gotten worse and over the top. He basically takes the shitty Fox News stance on everything and doesn't really come at the stories and issues in a funny way anymore. Don't get me wrong I still love the dude but his show kinda sucks. I don't understand how people give him such a pass and hate on O&J so passionately when that show is way funner, funnier, and more entertaining than TACS is. The people who truly love TACS are exactly how I explained them above. Thick headed, and hateful people generally love to hear their beliefs and opinions validated. It's just an echochamber where they get to hear their shit get repeated or their opinions literally get formed for them by someone smarter than themselves and go out and repeat it
1 OneForty1 2015-04-27
Personally i always liked Ant because he presents his views in a fact-based, funny amd generally entertaining way. I don't agree with most of what he says at all.
Does this make me a thick-headed, rascist buffoon?
You generalize even more than Anthony does.
-4 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
Lol I said the same thing, I too have always enjoyed Ant for those reasons, but recently it's become unbearable. It's also pretty fucking obvious I don't mean all of ants fans. LOL it's AMAZING how butt hurt people are getting for being generalized (over something that is true), but when they're talking about black people's behavior they will tell them to "suck it up, I only mean the bad ones"

-5 maynardsabeast 2015-04-27
I don't know man, the guys raises a fair point. Ants obsession with minorities is pretty weird and over the top
5 ricardo_von_nicht 2015-04-27
Ill tell you why I think what he wrote is a narrow opinion:
Despite anybodys political leanings, it cannot be plausibly said by anyone that a person of a certain status, low or high, is not affected in some way by problems or actions of others in a society. A person cannot isolate themselves and shield themselves from a societys issues. Wealthy people are impacted, as are the others. There is always a domino effect. If the issue is degrees, the guy above could make an argument (a white guy living in Ferguson is impacted more than a white family in the suburbs of Seattle, but everyone is impacted in some way) but thats not what he did.
That line was just retarded. Why does Bill gates care about mosquitos in Africa, why does Michael Moore care about the pay for prisons etc etc?
If anyone really believes this, then they are just simply retarded. You can have an opinion about the general characteristics of a segment of a specific group, without wishing the entire group ill will.
Thats the topic he chose to focus on, and he has the right to. Just like Michelle Obama focuses on school lunches. Their voices are just louder because they have some level of "fame"(?)
4 OneForty1 2015-04-27
This is like saying that the owners of the establishments in Baltimore being looted and destroyed shouldn't give a shit because they are in a higher societal status. It makes no sense.
No matter your status, ALL issues affect you either directly or indirectly and everyone has the right to form whatever opinion they feel.

Neither grants them legitimacy, except for the sheep who're predisposed to swallow whatever they say anyway.

David duke does tend to back his claims with sources. A prophet doesn't have that ability since his claims are based in faith.

The fanboys and sycophants on both sides are both comedically insufferable and embarrassing. One side is idiot, backward stormfront racists that hyperventilate about black folk; while the other is Opie's gang of soccer moms and the lovable, but insane, "Hi Opie" guy.
0 Flamgirlant 2015-04-27
I'm sure many will disagree, but Jim is and always has been my favorite person on the show. There's plenty to hate about him if you're trying, and there are plenty of things I dislike about him myself. But Ant's obsession with this shit has absolutely ruined his ability to be funny and my ability to enjoy his show.
I don't fucking care at all that he's so obsessed with this shit in his personal life. My biggest problem is that it has completely overtaken his show, turning it into something that seems almost completely self-serving. He knows most fans want less talk about the black community that he's so focused on. Ronnie B told him straight to his face that he needed to stop and start being more funny. But he ignores it, because talking about it is what he wants.
That's something I hated most about Opie. His Stern rants and rants about management or equipment fucking up existed entirely for his own catharsis. He ranted about it because he wanted to, with no regard for his audience. Ant even talked about some of that as something Opie did that he didn't understand. But here he is, doing a show in his basement for his fans who were loyal enough to subscribe to his 1-man show, who put up with the shitty technical issues, Rat's fuck-ups, KtC's "boy pussy" videos, claims of the Ron and Ant show, Artie as co-host, and never coming back to reddit - who have been overwhelmingly supportive of Ant considering how negative we all are otherwise, and yet Ant's focus for the show continues to be not on what his audience wants to hear, but on what he wants to say.
Just today on twitter, he went from:
to:
I'm sure some people enjoy this kind of stuff on TACS. Good, I'm glad some people enjoy it. But it is so far removed from what the core of his audience enjoyed about his presence on O&A.
I never thought I'd say this, because I think O&J stinks and I've always fucking hated Opie and continue to do so, but I'd much rather listen to O&J tomorrow than TACS. Of course, like everyone here should, I will be doing neither and instead listening to #BENNINGTON, because Ron continues to put forth a great effort to deliver a show that's entertaining to his audience. And yes, I know my phone crapped out in the middle of that rant.
