Went to see Neil DeGrasse Tyson last night. Lost all respect.

I've always like him and thought of him as a reasonable, grounded person, but I was wrong. First of all masks were required at the show. The lady at the front told me and I told her I thought this was a science show, not a political show. This venue has not had a mask policy for a few months and the city hasn't for over a year. The first 30 minutes were a political rant about covid and white republicans. He called it "House keeping".

He had a slide showing that republicans were more likely to die from covid. He said 5x more likely and that was DATA no one could argue with, yet finding that number online seems to be hard. I found 73 more deaths per 100,000 people for Republicans and 306/100k total. That means about 190 deaths from R and 120 from D, hardly 5x. More lies and hyperbole to support their narrative. Also, that "data" is assuming political affiliation based on counties that voted >60% pro Trump. Talk about a stretch. That's a lot of assumptions to disparage an entire political party's supporters. But, that's what the left does.

Of course he's urging people to get the jab and STILL wear a mask jfc. My mask was off the entire show. I had a jack and coke to sip and when it was done I would just pretend to take a sip when an usher came by.

Another slide showed reluctance to get vaxed and had a chart based on race and political affiliation. White republican was at the bottom showing the most reluctance. I found this interesting b/c if the chart was to show "Amount of reluctance" why did it not show White republicans on the top? More mind games and I really thought he was smarter.

Then as he's doing to show he keeps saying he has to skip ACTUAL SCIENCE slides because he was short on time. Un-fuking-believable.

There was also a couple of jabs in there about race, claiming the lies about people of color and dealing with the police. Apparently there was a kids book written by someone about him where he's on a roof with a telescope and someone calls saying it's a gun and he says, 'I have to show the police Saturn in the telescope so they don't shoot me b/c poc and the police don't mix.' SOMEONE ELSE CALLED SAYING YOU HAD A GUN THEY'RE JUST DOING THEIR FUKING JOB. You think if it's a white guy they're bringing fuking mayonnaise sandwiches and board games?

My gf bought the tickets. I have only seen him on shows on TV, I did not know anything about his politics. I don't tweet or FB.

Die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain

I hate how everything and everyone has to have such a hard political bent to everything in the last few years. Just shut up and telescope

It’s so fuking depressing when all of your heroes lose their minds.

A few celebrities I once looked up to who have become villains in recent years:

Neil DeGrasse Tyson
Robert De Niro
Howard Stern
Jesse Ventura
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Stephen Colbert
Eminem

The list goes on...

I knew him from the meme for years, but I've only heard him speak from a short clip here and there, then I decided to listen to him on a long drive, since I saw him on Rogan and had exhausted everything else I was listening to.

What an insufferable fukking douche. I'm not a big Rogan fan, but he was so needlessly disrespectful toward Rogan, and so incredibly up his own ass, I had to turn the show off after 30 or so minutes. I feel sorry for anyone that has to deal with him irl, dude has the biggest ego out of anyone I've probably ever heard.

Yup that was his most recent JRE interview. It was clear to me Neil was popping ******** right before the show because he wouldn’t stop interrupting, dude was off the walls.



His earlier appearances around 2014-2016 were actually enjoyable listens though. Back then he was informative, interesting and down to earth. Good chemistry between him and Joe too.

If I was ever going to see him live it would have to be a guarantee that the only thing talked about would be Space. I love to listen about Space and Space theories. If that wasn't the only topic, I wouldn't go.

Yea, he's always been kind of annoying....but more recently just letting it all go to his head and taking advantage of his platform.

Last time he was on JRE (a few months back) I didnt even make it 30 minutes in.

He's just an arrogant ass-hat now.

Great thread OP, really interesting to hear first-hand accounts of these creatures IRL to confirm that my hyperbolic assumptions about their subhuman nature are not completely unfounded.

Never liked this De Grasse Tyson ****g0t anyway, he always struck me as very Bill Nye-ish, just kind of science for dumb people who want to feel smart for the afternoon. Obviously not surprised to hear that his entire fanbase is composed of liberal cretins either but JFL @ masking reqs and repped bigly for your zinger.

Last time I saw that guy on the JRE he was insufferable and you could tell his ego is HUGE.

Not in the least bit surprised at what you've reported.

That’s how pretty much all leftists are, especially ones with any type of money or power. Whatever message they have to parrot to get money and power they’ll do it. This is evidenced by how quickly they’ll contradict themselves if their group asks it of them.

That’s disappointing to hear. I thought he’d be a reasonable voice in all of this. What a ****ggotron. Total loss of respect now.

Why does the left have to lie so much? They’re only furthering the divide between everyone with their constant bs. I can respect someone who just has a different view as long as it’s based on real substance. This bs they’re doing isn’t respectable at all and only caters to the other people like them who are full of chit.
This body holding me, be my reminder here that I am not alone.
