Seth Rogen calling out Ted Cruz on Twitter isn't a "feud," he told Stephen Colbert, as "feud implies equal ground."
The Hollywood star has gained notoriety for confronting the Texas senator on the platform multiple times, notably for Cruz's constant backing up of Trump's baseless allegations of voter fraud that ultimately led to a mob of Trump supporters violently storming the U.S. Capitol, and Cruz's extremely dumb public bemoaning of President Joe Biden's executive order to have the U.S. rejoin the Paris Agreement — among many other things.
Rogen has previously called out people using the word "feud" to describe the situation, and he reiterated this to Colbert while appearing on The Late Show on Thursday.
"Feud implies equal ground," said Rogen. "If someone's trying to murder someone with a baseball bat and someone is yelling that person to stop, is that a feud between the baseball bat-wielder and the person yelling at the baseball bat-wielder? I don't know if that's a feud.
"I think feud implies two people hitting each other with baseball bats. Ted Cruz is a fascist. He denies the reality of the election. His words cause people to die, and I'm making jokes about it. Is that a feud? I don't know. To me, it doesn't seem like a feud. To me, it seems like I'm pointing out the fact that he is a terrible man whose words have resulted in death."
