Yeah! Just because a racist, fascist douchebag does a seig heil doesn’t mean you should tell obvious big mean old lies about him being a Nazi!
You tell those woke mind virus victims, Joe!
He’s the voice of a generation…
The generation that grew up breathing lead fumes.
So weird to see this guy now after watching him early in his career on news radio. Then watching fear factor from time to time.
When I think of Rogan now I remember the day Howard Stern was kicked off of clear channel. I guess the only thing that really bother Republicans was that Howard wasn’t on their side.
Goebbels say what?
That’s giving Joe way too much credit. Goebbels was evil, but he was also smart.
Spot on. There are so many good quotes from him and Goering. I’m not a Nazi weirdo or anything, but they’re just so… Relevant.
Goebbels:
A lie told once remains a lie but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth.
Makes you think some leaders studied this a bit…
Yeah I debated going with Göring, but I decided to pick the 'mouth of Sauron ’ angle. As Göring is also way more intelligent than Rogan… And a legit war vet.

Do people always forget how the story about crying wolf ends? A real fuckin wolf shows up. Rips the kid to sheds. Horrible ending.
An entire town decided that they’d have a child act as the monitor for a known threat; he makes two mistakes and then they stop believing him as he does the job the town put him there to do. At no point does anyone decide, “hey, maybe we should put two kids up there… just in case.”
It would have been to progressive to not use child labor. They likely didn’t respect his job because they considered it unskilled. All he did was stand at the door at Costco and check for membership cards.
Oh wait…
To shreds, you say?
“Well, how is his wife holding up?”
To shreds you say?
These people play the “left is always over reacting” but they would carry water for Elon no matter how damming the evidence. They’ve shown they don’t care about evidence or reality its all vibes to them.
Joe Rogan is a meathead.
Close your eyes and imagine a meathead.
That’s Joe Rogan.
Only a fool would listen to what Joe Rogan has to say because only fools listen to meatheads.
Unfortunately, we live in an age where meatheads are idolized by millions of people. Because our educational systems have failed. Because many, if not most, humans were simply not ready for the internet.
I thought he was Broprah until I remembered Oprah didn’t chum around with the fascists, white supremacists, or neonazis on the show.
You mean the satanic panic lady was pure…
Other than Dr.Oz
He’s not hitler. He’s just a nazi.
I wouldn’t be shocked if Joe didn’t know that there were Nazis other than Hitler.
Looked like an autistic seig heil to me. Bet the Nazis are happy. That’s probably the metric, if someone is doi g a salute that looks like it’s for a group. How does that group feel? They probably feel like he’s impure gypsy blood, and the autistic siege heil was indeed an autistic siege heil.
I feel dumber just having read that. Apparently pointing out that someone made a Nazi salute is covering for the fact that … checks notes … you’re an asshole. The fact that this village idiot is popular is truly a damning indictment of America.
I still can’t for the life of me figure out why anyone gives a shit about what Joe Rogan says. We need to stop giving monumentally stupid people such large platforms.
I can’t either, but he helped swing the election.
He’s popular because of long-format, uncensored interviews with interesting people in en era of heavy media manipulation and short form propaganda. It’s not that hard to understand why he has a large audience. The amount of push back from people complaining about him “platforming” people they disagree with further adds to the appeal. People want free expression and exchange of ideas, not censorial hall monitors with holier-than-thou attitudes who think they know better than you.
The problem is meathead Joe Rogan lets his guests tell cool stories about their experiences to gain an audience, then proceeds to express the stupidest fucking thoughts imaginable to all those people from the gaping anus that serves as his mouth.
He’s the first person to say not to listen to him. I don’t have an issue with people expressing their opinions even if they’re as mean as this; usually folks are nicer about it when it’s in person and not online.
My problem is he uncritically accepts bullshit gecause he has no idea. When he was ypunger he was more willing to change.
long-format, uncensored interviews with interesting people in en era of heavy media manipulation and short form propaganda.
There seem to be lots of options for that these days. He’s not so unique anymore.
But he built up such a large audience.
I use to casually watch select episodes where the guest was someone cool or interesting. And the fringe topics could be fun.
But now… bleh. It’s all too self aware and shot with bullshit now.
Sure that’s fair. There is a lot of bullshit from a lot of places these days. You’ve gotta be able to filter it for yourself. You don’t have to agree with every position someone has on every single political issue.
Whether or not you or I care what he has to say doesn’t change that he has a huge audience of people who do care and if we just tune him out instead of rebutting his crazy shit he’ll go completely unchecked.
There’s an argument to be made that just engaging his bullshit gives it weight. Something about arguing with a pig just gets you pulled into the mud and the pig likes it or somesuch. (I know, I butchered that saying).
I honestly prefer the angle of “Oh, you listen to Joe Rogan. Then clearly your opinion is of no consequence and I want nothing with you”.
And people wonder how the Democrats lost in 2024.
“Oh this person did one thing that isn’t permanent and they could possibly have their viewpoints changed if they were around people like me who disagree with them? Nah I’m going to tell them that because they listen to a podcast of a guy I hate that I think everything about them is wrong and then I will never speak to them again.”
The only way to stop the young men and women from getting sucked down there pipeline into the alt right dude bro bullshit is to fucking talk to them like they are humans that can make mistakes. When you write them off entirely instantly without even a second thought you are robbing everyone involved of the potential for personal growth and understanding.
“Bigotry is bad and you should feel bad.”
“What, so people can’t make mistakes anymore? So much for the ‘tolerant left’.” And then they double down, because feeling bad is for liberal pussies.
Bro what?
Ironically, Marc Andreessen was on the JRE podcast and brought up that the new “woke” stuff essentially functions as a cult or neo-religion without a concept of forgiveness.
The scariest part is they often either cannot see it or they can see it and they just don’t care how cultish it is.
I hate the term “woke” because it’s wrapped up in so much pedantic bullshit now, but yeah.
I’m noticing that being a “man’s man” seems to correlate with being a bootlicker.
Anti intellectualism and submitting to fascist authority both align with machismo culture.
Moat of them have been trained from a very young age by their religious leaders to beleive anything without proof and that malice is the most effective and moral way to obtain dopamine.
A good soldier asks no questions and dies without hesitation for the cause. Squads, legions, whole army’s even.
The cause? Usually always someones greed
an entire ideology totally deaf to irony.
They need a daddy
And extreme toxicity to the point that it drives everyone away from them so they just start with some Olympic level mental gymnastics to explain why it’s not their fault people hate them.
No you confuse it with being a child man
So Joe it was just a Roman salute huh? He was just trolling huh even though the motherfucker has said he is a white supremecist at what point is this shit not just trolling anymore
Where did he say he is a white supremacist
He’s a cryptofascist. I don’t think he’s come outright and said it, but when he portrays himself as the semi-ironic white supremacist god “Kek,” he knows that it gives him enough plausible deniably that he can play his fashy little denial games.
After his sieg heil the other day, there’s no longer any room for doubt.
So he didn’t outright say it, but if I flip someone off while grinning and telling them they’re number one, there’s no denying what I’m actually saying.
Nazi sympathizer = Nazi
When your podcast accepts Nazis on your show … your show is Nazi propaganda
More accurately, when your podcast accepts nazi’s on your show… and you let them go off on rants and you don’t push back on them… your show is nazi propoganda.
It’s perfectly reasonable for a show to have horrific people on… so long as they loudly are showing “No that is bullshit, here’s why that is bullshit!”.
Keep doubling down, you fucking jackasses. Rest of the world is watching.
Key word is “watching”. They’re more than happy to have an audience as long as they get what they want. And they do and they are.
I wish you were wrong, but I guess “You’re up, mario”.
