4:59Now PlayingDave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" explains why he stopped identifying as a progressive and began calling out the regressive left; how the left abandoned traditional liberal values like free speech, individual rights, religious freedom, and judging people by their character instead of their skin color; why identity politics and the "oppression Olympics" replaced Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision of equality; his defense of religious liberty despite being a married gay man; why diversity of thought matters more than political correctness; and how defending classical liberal values increasingly pushed him away from the Democratic Party and toward conservatism; and much more.
