I think he already had that moment - when his SNL got cancelled. Listening to the old podcasts too you can tell he was quite reactionary. I think some of it still boils under the surface.

In all though, like a lot of the American comedians who have 'alright' moments, they tend to skew 'apolitical' libertarian but with free healthcare opinions. The types that Bernie could get to vote for him rather than Trump, when ordinarily they wouldnt support a different democrat demon like Clinton/Biden/Harris.

I went through a big phase of listening to MSSP. I think a big part of what they've got going is a feeling of authenticity, and security in themselves. I think that goes a long way in stopping true weirdo brainworms from taking hold - because so much of the Right especially is wrapped up in weird masculinity complexes and WASP self worth problems.

Yeah I remember hearing about that. I don't really listen to the type of podcast he's on, so I wouldn't know, but that sucks to hear. Maybe it was a wake up call, though I doubt it. On the other hand almost all other chuds that stuff happens to do nothing but talk about being cancelled.
I guess I just want him to not be an absolute turd.
