    I know I've done it, many of us have done it, but I'm sorry, when you're a public figure and you tweet things over and over like "fuck you", "you stupid fuck", and "Dude just stop this is sad [sic]", you come across as a person with a weak vocabulary and limited intelligence.  Doesn't mean I don't agree with him about Cruz (I do!), but Rogen's tweets leave him looking like someone with limited creativity and intelligence.  For that matter, all of the people in these tweets sound like high school kids arguing in the cafeteria. 
    i've seen rogen go after people like cruz before, and i think his passion gets the best of him, and he also just doesn't seem to give a shit what people think of him. 

    I honestly don't know much about the guy, and for me, his tantrum tweeting doesn't inspire much curiosity.  I guess he's a big star somewhere.
    he's actually quite famous. LOL. mostly stoner comedies.

    Both Rogen and Cruz are famous and rich because of their personalities. Their careers just happen to allow them to portray who they really are as people. Unfortunately for the country, Cruz's position directly impacts us all. I can just choose to ignore stoner Rogen's movies if I want.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I remember reading an article about some dickhead scientists that were trying to link cursing with higher intelligence. I am sure you could google that shit to see if it holds any truth. Sorry, I just don't feel like trying to link a fucking article right now.

    Everyone should treat Cruz and his ilk the same way Rogen treats him on Twitter.

    Good for him.
    I agree.  I don't think it ruins his argument against Cruz cause he curses.  That's the kinda bullshit that gets us in trouble...instead of worrying about substance of the thought/idea, we worry how it was said.  It's twitter....he's no politician.  And for that matter cheerleading an insurrection deserves hanging....it's much worse than using the word fuck.

    I would say linking cursing or not to the intelligence of the person in question is irrelevant.



    Ted Cruz for obvious reason is dumb. And have zero problem supporting fascism.

    It's not the cursing that Lux is talking about, it's the lack of substance and wit to those comments....I agree, he can do better.  A professional comedian should be firing back some witty fuckin retorts.

    They’re both the same exact personality.  Hilarious that neither sees that.

    i don't find rogen to be the seasoned type of comedian that can clap back in a half second with something ultra witty. he's more of a comedy writer. 

    and honestly, i gather he's just fed up.

    His complete bluntness and no respect for Fascist-for-reelection-Cruz is refreshing and it is funny as hell. Haha. 

    Sometimes a "I know" is all you have to answer when someone says "I love you", whatever professional script writers had thought out and written.

    We all should be past the point of trying to be clever or witty when dealing with traitors. That time has come and gone.

    They should be in jail, and if that can't happen they should be heckled and booed wherever they dare to show their shithole seditious faces. Fuck them. They need to be outcasts in a civil society (with no civility shown for them).

    I see nothing wrong with or anything indicative of a lack of intelligence from Rogen. He’s playing down to the competition and winning every exchange.
