Gutfeld’s Monologue Exposing the Left’s ‘Performative Ignorance’ Is Pure Genius

Greg Gutfeld opened his monologue on Gutfeld! Wednesday evening by putting a name to something I’d be willing to bet most of us already recognize. The left’s latest routine, he explained, runs on a willful refusal to acknowledge reality, followed by a demand that everyone else do the explaining. Gutfeld called it “performative ignorance.”

And he was spot on.

“So the left has a new song and dance they’re inflicting on us, and it’s called ‘performative ignorance,’ where people fake a lack of knowledge about the most basic laws of life and then expect you to explain it,” Gutfeld said.

The scam starts with feigned confusion over things no serious adult struggles to understand. “They claim to be baffled by the simplest concepts,” Gutfeld said.
