The last time I heard from Dr. Phil he had Matt Walsh on to debate that bearded tranny.

I don't understand why people ever liked Dr.Phil

Daytime television is watched almost exclusively by middle aged women, the only demographic to have a large portion be at home when it airs.

Ask yourself why an industry that lives off fear mongering, ripped from the headlines, and "talk about the freaks" is popular with middle aged women and you'll have your answer.

Its pretty simple.

Actually, he does hold a doctorate in clinical psychology. Supposedly he stopped renewing his license in 2006 or something though.

He got caught having an intern take his renewal tests, so he stopped renewing.

Huh. Well that's informative. Granted, while I think some aspects of license renewals in certain professions are a bit scammy, it doesn't excuse sending an employee out to do the tests/work for you.

It didn't effect him on television in the slightest. The intern that told, was negatively effected. They didn't need that type of intern anymore for the show.

In the past America was divided between sensible, mean people (republicans) and sensible, nice people (democrats). By mean I'm thinking of like "you'll never be a woman" and "get a fucking job deadbeat".

Dr. Phil has always been a sensible, mean person. So if you were basically nice you didn't like Dr. Phil because 'he's such a jerk'. The divide was nice vs mean.

Now the divide is sensible vs insane. So sensible nice people are saying, yeah I don't really care anymore that Dr. Phil is a big meanie because he's making sense.

Maybe he had a change of heart down the line or something, cause I agree, I wasn't a fan of him at all. I think we can just keep an eye on him while still support the message. Maybe his producers had a leash on him back then, who knows.

For people under 40, I suspect many know/like Dr. Phil because of Pewdepie milking his content for a while, that was the first time many younger people actually watched Dr. Phil.

He's always had an occasional spot of being redpilled.

Brushing with Hollywood has made him a little vulnerable to regressive influence, but the worst I think I've seen is maybe him following through with the tranny agenda to at least some degree. But that was from 6 or so years ago.

Oh I generally agree. I just seem to recall him at least going with the flow and sticking to the "narrative" on at least one episode in one of the last seasons.

He didn't seem outspoken in a supportive way by any means so much as was simply ceding to the APA's official position.

He also made some statements about the American border and the run-away immigration disaster that is unfolding thanks to Biden.
