Explain the Cenk thing to me like I’m 5

I’ve never understood why people like Cenk or think he’s someone you should follow for decent opinions or arguments. I briefly watched him years ago, but had to stop because he was very shallow, theatrical, emotional, and mostly relied on rhetoric instead of reasonable responses. I felt similar about Bill Maher and Hasan, which is why I couldn’t watch them for very long either. I’ve noticed that he regularly repeats people’s arguments back to them in the most thinly veiled strawman style I’ve ever seen. He also does this thing where he mocks the other person by acting like a baby and pretending to cry (maybe he doesn’t do this anymore, but it’s hard to watch when I’ve seen it). It’s like when XQC crawled around the ground like a worm, but people actually think it’s good when Cenk does it? I’m not sure. Someone explain why he’s worth watching (before his shift to populism over everything at least)
