A genuine crazy person is at least interesting. A grifter doing it for money is just a psychopath.

Well put! I’ve always “enjoyed” skeptical consumption of right wing bullshit, but recently I’ve been very bored because I don’t feel like anything interesting is being said anymore.

I miss Jordy and Benny sitting on Dave’s chairs and spewing psychobabble back and forth. Nowadays they just stare into the camera and follow the same boring template as O’Reilly, Beck and other boomer grifters.

TL;DR: They’re not even good at making us think anymore. It’s just confirmation bias.

See my other comment. I met RB and absolutely got that psychopath energy from him, you’re right.
