The apotheosis of what a dumb guy thinks a smart guy sounds like.
The manifested avatar of a crowd of drunk college kids having an uninformed debate.
The patron saint of mansplaining.
From my knowledge of them (which is sadly non-zero), I think Ben Shapiro fits the first description better.
my favorite Shabibo moment was when he had a "debate" with a famous Tory broadcaster in the UK and got dunked on so hard he called him a leftist.
He was promoting a book about how the left is quick to anger and intolerant at the time to boot, but of course his go to insult was to call someone a leftist.
So basically he hasn't changed since he was on News Radio.
Nobody, not even dumb people, think Joe Rogan sounds like a smart guy. They think he sounds like a relatable (dumb) guy who talks to smart guys.
