In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter about his future Apple TV+ show, Stewart touched upon the potential of Twitter, as well as his strong comments with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
"Oh, sure, it's democratized connection and also democratized destruction. It's like everything," said Stewart in a citation to the influence of Twitter. "Not to quote MC Hammer, but you can't take the measure without considering the measurer.
"It's kind of the point I was making on Colbert that everybody got mad about, which was, 'These are just tools, we're the ones that fuck them up.' So yeah, it's exciting and connecting and incredibly dangerous, like pretty much everything we've ever made," he added.
"You're referencing your June appearance on The Late Show where you went all-in on the theory that the coronavirus originated from a lab in China. I couldn't tell if Colbert was entertained by your bit or maybe a little nervous," said reporter Lacey Rose.
"I don't think he was nervous. It's not like he doesn't know what I'm going to say," Stewart remarked. "Listen, how it got to be that if it was a scientific accident, it's conservative, and if it came from a wet market, it's liberal, I don't know — I'm just not sure how that got politicized.
"But it was an inelegant way to get to a bit that I've done for years, which is our good-intentioned brilliance will more than likely be our demise," Stewart added in regards to his June comments. "The bit is about the last words that man ever utters, which are, 'Hey, it worked.' I guess I was a little surprised at the pushback."
Stewart arrived as a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in early June, where he indulged in the events about the origins of COVID-19.
"I think we owe a great debt of gratitude to science," he said. "Science has, in many ways, helped ease the suffering of this pandemic, which was more than likely caused by science." "Do you mean perhaps there's a chance that this was created in a lab?" Colbert asked.
"A chance?" Stewart replied. "Oh my god! There's a novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking Wuhan, China, what do we do? Oh, you know who we could ask? The Wuhan novel respiratory coronavirus lab. The disease is the same name as the lab. That's just a little too weird!"
