Fox News host Dan Bongino said Saturday that people like himself can’t get traction because of the left, but people with “cultural capital” like Aaron Rodgers and Joe Rogan can a real difference in the world.
The context of that observation was a discussion about “censorship” on issues related to covid vaccines and mandates, following comments from NFL star Rodgers that were huge news.
“When in the course of human history has the side that’s doing the censoring and trying to shut people up and make them show papers and marginalize a part of the community ever been [the correct side]?” Rodgers is quoted in an ESPN interview. “We’re censoring dissenting opinions? What are we trying to do? Save people from being able to determine the validity on their own or to listen and to think about things and come to their own conclusion? Freedom of speech is dangerous now if it doesn’t align with the mainstream narrative?”
