Never implied that I think its his true belief, only that the "say something retarded for laughs" shtick is something retards do. It can work in rare cases, but he has a lot of hardcore listeners that legitimately think retarded shit like that and only get emboldened when he says it, so at some point the "come on guys he's obviously trolling lmao haha get trolled haha" falls flat. It might be worth a hearty chuckle from the seats of the Matt Walsh fan club but from the outside looking in it's just eye roll inducing. Not gung ho about people mentally associating the current right with satanic panic retardation either. That's honestly the bigger problem.
