(11,302 posts)It's really easy.
I don't agree with him on all things. Certainly not his views on vaccination.
I absolutely agreed with him this week about how no one is willing to tackle the obesity issue. It's not politically popular to even attempt it. Our side will just call everyone "fatphobic" for noting that nearly four in five Covid deaths came from the obese.
His rants about public health are usually righteous. I part ways with him on his vaccine commentary. The rest? He's absolutely correct.
He platforms all kinds of people, Right and Left. It's why I watch him. If you want only liberal or Democratic guests, there are plenty of shows that cater to the wish for a bubble. People should seek those out. Leave some shows for those of us who like exposure to a diversity of views.
I don't care for heavy metal. Really not my taste. Cool for those who do, though. And yet somehow, I don't sit through a Pantera album and then go on an internet tear about it after. Weird, right?
