    Where are folks telling me that Russel Brand is a secret leftist who just knows how to talk to the masses?

      It's fandom bullshit. There was a time where up-yours-woke-moralists had fans claiming his "advice" was "nonpolitical."

          Dr Professor Lobster Esq. PhD MD doesn't hate feeemales! He says the feminine is sacred which is why it's compared to dragons and evil magic! up-yours-woke-moralists

            What's especially funny is how the whole "chaos dragon" is like a phenomenon that is real across legends and cultures but Peterson ascribing it to some kind of immutable truth puts him firmly in the Helena Blavatsky/Hyperborea/Nazi Occultism camp instead of anything worth writing about.

            Like damn dude good job using something real to springboard into talking about stupid things. Neat parlor trick!

          I remember when Peterson first started showing up and people were all "He's being taken out of context!"

          I'd go watch the full context and it'd be so, so much worse than what I originally saw lmao. They'd claim it's not sexist/homophobic/political/whatever when Peterson is ranting about how makeup turns women into prostitutes or some shit.

    I think it's hilarious both that Rob Schneider is appearing and that he's listed above Taibbi

      Fascists want to be the heroic rebels so badly while at the same time being the authoritarian strongmen.

      Something something enemy too strong and too weak.

      Who the hell is he? Sounds like some "influencer" that maybe has associations with Joe Rogan.

        Oh idk if he has associations with anyone. His schtick is "british rapper" turned MAGA grifter. He was guest on a podcast I listened to circa 2016 and i just remember him being so irritating, but also the dumbass hosts of the podcast were kinda falling for the grift. Now i sed his name on all these sort of events
