    The comedian would later go further in taking the piss out of himself, noting that “the funniest way for me to die is if I die from COVID” and reacting to criticism from Prince Harry about his anti-vaccine misinformation. “My first thought was: F—. Did I? I might’ve!” he declared, grinning. “But here’s my take on that, sincerely: If you’re getting your vaccine advice from me, is that really my fault?”

    “That’s not my job, kids. I’m a professional s–t-talker, OK?” he offered up in his own defense. “Some of the things I say make sense. A lot of them don’t. It’s up to you to figure out what’s what. That’s the fun part.”

    Oh FUCK off. If you didn’t want the responsibility of people listening to what you say, maybe you shouldn’t have a job broadcasting to an audience of millions. He thinks it’s funny that his vaccine conspiracies have almost certainly killed people.

    Spotify and now Netflix? How about we stop giving obscene amounts of money to an obscenely hateful idiot?

    At best it’s pandering to the lowest common denominator, at worst it’s nefarious work to spread disinformation.

      It’s neither. It’s dumber, and it’s more repulsive: outrage pays. He’s literally selling rage to the hateful. And he knows he’s doing it. Same as Alex Jones, Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Jesse Watters, etc.

    Rogan wondered why “suddenly every man in a dress is stunning and brave,” and blamed pop culture of his lifetime for depictions of killers as crazier when they wore dresses, citing PsychoThe Silence of the Lambs, and Little Red Riding Hood. “It’s almost like a pervert wizard waved a magic spell on the whole world,” he remarked. “With a wave of this wand, you can walk through the women’s locker room with a hard c–k, and anybody who complains is a Nazi. Abracadabra! And it just worked.”

    Does he have worms in his brain too? I mean, how else is he coming up with this shit?

    Part of the reason conservatives are so obsessed with policing the lives of others is that doing so is the only context in which they’re “allowed” to think about these taboo things. As long as they carry the shield of hate in their heart, they can go back to thinking and talking about it again and again and again. No, no, they’re not obsessed with gayness because they like it or want to fantasize about it, noooo, they are just really into virtue and purity. /s 🙄

    Time to stop giving attention to that attention whore. He is nothing more. I never understood why people would jerk each other off over listening to some old, undereducated and ugly bastard. If thats what i wanted, there are more interesting stories and takes available under my local bridge. I do not even have to pay for it and listen to ads.

    I kind of want to watch it now. I’ll time how long it takes for me to switch it off.
