    a haughty, cackling asshole ignoring a woman’s expertise

    Boy howdy, that’s a spot-on description. Never listened to him because I expected it to be trash; but I didn’t realize the situation was so dire

    Motherfucker leans into sensationalism and shock-value, because he’ll be forgotten as soon as he shuts the fuck up—and of course he won’t have any useful skills to hold a job with real value afterward. Fucking cowardly shits, afraid to work on something of substance when the fame/infamy runs dry

    So yeah, it indeed made my blood boil a little lol. Wish I could say it was mostly pity for him being so… dumb? But nah, that’s a person acting like garbage and should be treated as such (until proven otherwise)

      To be fair, while I haven’t listened to a ton of Rogan, that’s easily the most openly vile thing I’ve heard from him. And it’s not from his show, he’s a guest on some call in show. It’s also an older clip.

      Usually his schtick is a lot more subtle, “I’m just asking questions, I’m just open to hearing all sides, I just happen to platform Nazis and never push back on their opinions because I’m so open, also I think trans people are evil”

      You know. You know the fuckin type.
