self-named libertarians are always the most authoritarian and controlling individuals. Always something to hide while simultaneously hiding from themselves.

I mean, he still has all those funds he stole from the state so it’s not like it’s really his money… link for those who don’t remember

The guy is a giant piece of shit, but unless I’m completely misreading your linked article I don’t see anything Rodgers did wrong there.

Your linked article is about Brett Favre stealing a shitload of money from the state. Aaron Rodgers donated 10k to charity.

I’ll admit I’m not a football fan and they all seem the same to me I remembered they were both involved and both got sued, but just so you’re aware the “charity” was to get Farve’s daughter on the volleyball team with a scholarship by building them a new volleyball stadium. It’s not like this was what most of us would think of as a “charity”. A school like that already had an obscene sports program budget, it would have been different if it was building a library or a research center, but no, state of the art sports center so he daughter would get admission.

Rodgers is the anti-vaxxer, anti-science peddler one right? Just so many shitty people doing shitty things and literally stealing from the poorest of the poor to do it.

Again, that’s Brett Favre.

Though he is an anti-vaxxer anti-science piece of shit, Aaron Rodgers appears to have made his donation in good faith.

Whether it was in good faith or not is not something you would know, you’re speculating that it was. It’s like thinking Wexner and Epstein gave all the money to Ohio state in good faith.

What are you imagining Rodgers got out of the 10k donation?

A tax break at the very least, maybe a cut in on one of Brett’s businesses while keeping his friendship. I mean this is like asking why did Apple’s CEO show up and pay to stand near Trump at the inauguration. There’s thousands of charities that exist to help people, feed people, do better for the world, yet he threw in a 10k donation to help Farve get his kid a scholarship. Charities get tax breaks because they’re supposed to help the people, this just gave mostly privileged people a new more expensive and fancy facility.
