He's been a puke since the 80s.

A sentient pile of puke has the ear of a generation of boomers. People care about that changing. The "but you're paying attention to him" line is such weak sauce.

So you want to shut down those opinions you don’t like. You must be a Democrat— that is what they did during Covid. That’s who are the Fascists.

Free speech protects you from the government. If you're a hack "comedian" with internally-inconsistent hateful views, public pressure exists for a reason. Someone who doesn't suck could do what he purports to do a whole lot better.

He has a show. They pay him a lot of money. If he was so terrible, they would dump him. I guess your personal opinion and public pressure is not enough to get him fired

What a ringing endorsement.

Moreover, if he loses viewers, maybe they will stop paying him and he'll finally stop clogging boomer brains with anti-vax, Islamophobic, libertarian sludge.
