    He’s not more stupid than the average person. He’s just more willing to open his big, dumb mouth, and he has a platform where his big, dumb ideas are broadcast to the whole world.

    I will give him credit though, because he isn’t as closed-minded as most people. Too many people never challenge the things they were taught as kids, and get angry if they’re given new information. Look how upset people got because astronomers decided that Pluto was a dwarf planet, rather than a regular full-fledged planet.

    The dumbest thing about Rogan is that he doesn’t seem to have a good filter for ideas he should be open-minded about vs. ideas that are not worth considering.
