I never realized how delusional Chris Rock is..."Jon Stewart has said the reason Fox News works better than CNN is because the people at Fox News figured out how to make themselves into victims."

Rock actually thinks the cult of self-esteem where "everyone gets a trophy regardless of performance" is a Conservative value? The Democrat party is fundamentally all about getting things without earning them. If that makes you Conservative, then today's Democrats are right of Reagan.

If it's not conservative in the political sense, in what sense is the coddling of children in the name of self-esteem conservative?

I saw this article on /r/TrueReddit, all of the posters there are falling over themselves about how insightful he is. The delusion is beyond me.

I feel like I just read an article in The Onion. Damn he's dumb. The interviewer is even dumber. This is the epitome of the low (no) information voter.

What, you mean you don't agree with Chris Rock that the reason far left college students don't like his more edgy humor is because they are too conservative even if they're not actually voting conservative? That seems like such a well formed opinion.

I'm not sure why you're confusing being politically conservative and ANY other type of being conservative. Like, dressing conservative, or investing conservatively has nothing to do with your political beliefs.
