I’m going to give him the benefit of doubt. It could indeed be true.
Yes, I know it’s the Onion, but they’ve been spitting truth lately so I’m going with it.

He’s running the same con as Bush Jr. was: He knows damn well what he’s doing, he’s playing like he doesn’t know so he can deny it. His ‘character’ is this folksy kinda dumb guy who just ‘wants to know the truth.’ Then he can put fuckin’ Jordan Peterson on and go “hmm yes, I agree with you in every single thing you’ve said except this one small one, now see, I’m totally not biased.”
Young, 16-25 year old boys/men eat this up and he makes bank because they want the easy answers that right-wing con artists pitch to be real. They want it to be reality so they overlook the pretty obvious signs that Rogan is fleecing them.
This is The Beaverton, a far superior and more well respected publication than that rag down south
I appreciate you guys are upset at always being behind the US, even in terms of the enshittification of your government, but The Onion will always be superior to the beaverton. Maybe in a few years it could be Weekly World News level, but it’s got decades before approaching The Onion.
