Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Bret Easton Ellis (best-selling author, screenwriter, and podcast host) about the decline of the mainstream media, cancel culture and why he is anti-anti-Trump. Bret is the author of “American Psycho,” “Less Than Zero,” and his latest hit, “White”, and he has been described as the dark laureate of Generation X. Bret discusses what it was like growing up gay in LA in the 1970s. Bret shares his thoughts on the gay community and how identity politics and cancel culture is harming the community. He gives examples of even gay voices like Morrissey that are being silenced for not having the correct groupthink.
