No, but there is probably something to be said about the type of person who would willingly sit through a taping of the daily show. I think there are a lot of normies who are so brainwashed that they think constant humiliation is an appropriate penance for the supposed sins of their ancestors. It seems there is also a large contingent who are waking up to the fact that there isn't some KPI we'll hit where non white people won't hate them.
For a lot of white people, white guilt is a form of strategic self-deprecation. People typically self-deprecate in order to assuage the competitive concerns of others. Most of the time it is ironic; we don’t actually think poorly of ourselves, but we joke about it to put others at ease.
On a surface level, we’re communicating to others that we won’t be aggressive assholes. Maybe we’re lying, maybe not. But the display usually fosters better cooperation, which is both desirable and powerful… in a homogeneous high-trust society where such gestures are reciprocated.
In a multicultural low-trust society, self-deprecation is tantamount to showing a predatory your belly. And racial self-deprecation communicates to everyone that should any type of competition arise, you won’t be consolidating influence or power with your own racial cohort - not even if every other racial cohort explicitly does so.
It’s worth noting that some low value cultures view any self-deprecation is weakness. These cultures tend to be low in cooperation, which also means they tend to be low in achievement/advancement. Most of Africa is still a primitive shithole because the people who live there are incapable of sustained cooperation.

Only leftists would go to that. This isn't the early Jon Stewart era of the Daily Show where it was left wing but much more measured.
