What's this?

Maybe I missed it, but all I saw was Dan exposing the hypocrisy of Don

Winslow that's apparently trying to get Rogan cancelled. And in turn the hypocrisy all too often found in the left that does predominantly push for the cancelling of folks. I haven't seen anyone try to claim it's OK for Rogan to use the N-word, let alone that horrendous apes joke. Not Rogan himself, either.
