    If you take the word of a Hollywood comedian for facts, you have gone full fucking stupid.

    No one that listens to him takes what he or his guests say seriously, unless he rarely features a scientist talking uninterrupted for three hours, which I cannot find anyone else who does this.

      Sadly I can tell you from experience that a massive amount of Gen Z/A actually do look up to these people, and it is a massive problem.

      When a large portion of the next generation are looking up to the likes of Andrew Tate and Joe Rogan, does that mean we are all full fucking stupid?

      Listening to another humans voice for long periods of time definitely has a psychological effect on you. I’m pretty sure the biggest driving force behind conservatism is that 2 hours of AM radio most Americans listen to on their driving commute

      Ah, the Fox “News” defense. Unfortunately, a lot of the people who listen to him have long since “gone full fucking stupid”.
