That\u2019s 100% true,\u201d Carolla replied. \u00a0\u201cIf she were in her sixties and husky, nobody would listen to a word she ever said, because she sounds like an idiot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leftists had predictably gone ballistic over Carolla\u2019s comment. \u201cMajority Report\u2019s\u201d Emma Vigeland carped, \u201cIt\u2019s very predatory and creepy,\u201d while \u201cYoung Turks\u201d host Cenk Uygur sniffed, \u201cHe projects his sexism onto others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut what Carolla said is simply true,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailysignal.com\/2022\/09\/20\/no-apologies-from-this-comic-to-aoc-or-anyone-else\/\">opined<\/a> veteran reporter John Stossel, who interviewed Carolla. \u201cNobody pays much attention to House freshmen. Ocasio-Cortez is a political celebrity simply because she\u2019s pretty, and also, she speaks without constantly saying \u2018uh.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApologizing just leads to more apologizing,\u201d Carolla told Stossel. \u201cThey want you to apologize because they want dominion over you. And once you apologize, they just keep coming back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asserting that he simply didn\u2019t care what leftists thought, Carolla said, \u201cI just happen to be wired not to care, as long as I\u2019m right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Carolla spoke of his criticism of how the federal government originally handled COVID, saying, \u201cThey didn\u2019t give the ages of the people who died at the very beginning. I immediately got suspicious because it was a bunch of 90-year-olds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He decried the refusal of those on the Left to have a civil conversation with their political opponents: \u201cWhen you\u2019re going to a bar, you want to sit next to a guy who\u2019s a Steelers fan, if he\u2019s a Steelers fan. That\u2019s why they have Steelers bars and Patriots bars. But occasionally, and it\u2019s part of your job, you have to invite somebody over from the Patriots bar and have a robust debate on who\u2019s the better team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe that they would let the other side speak if they thought they could beat them in a debate. They don\u2019t,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n<p>Carolla, who once told a crowd, \u201cThe only way these people are going to go away is if everyone just sort of collectively tells them to f*** off,\u201d stated, \u201cI think if you\u2019re intellectually honest or I gave you two beers, you would agree with me. \u2026 I don\u2019t really have a choice as to what I say. It has to be the truth all the time. I\u2019m a comedian.
