“And so, that is the way that a lot of things I say are often interpreted,” he added, noting that he couldn’t care less how people feel about his comments.

“This woke culture wants to be offended by everything,” The four-time NFL MVP kept going. “You just go online and find something you don’t agree with. ‘I’m offended! How could you possibly say that?’ I don’t really care. I don’t care who it’s coming from or who said it.”

Rodgers’ misleading comments regarding his vaccination status last year made him the talk of the town. “immunized.” Later, however, it was revealed that he hadn’t been vaccinated.

Then he said that the media criticizing him was most likely being supported by ad revenues from vaccine companies such as Moderna and Pfizer.

“And it’s a station that may or may not have in the past been brought to you by Pfizer,” Rodgers said. “Then they gotta make sure that their villain gets cast in the correct light. And whether or not they’re sponsored by Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson, whatever it might be.”

“When you go up against some of those powers that be, put yourself in the crosshairs, they’re going to paint you in a certain way,” He added. “And that’s what the media did to me a couple years ago. That’s fine; that’s their prerogative. … But I think I responded pretty good in those times, and I’m glad I went through that. Anything that comes after that, it’s small potatoes, bro.”
