Joe Rogan is a piece of shit. He became a multi millionaire in California because of the infrastructure and people of California. Then instead of staying and playing taxes to give a bit back to the community, he took his money and ran to Texas.
A classic fuck you I got mine.
That is not why he is a piece of shit.
He is a piece of shit because he is a fascist propagandist. Who cares if he moved money? He enables fascists.
This is why you guys are where you are right now. You have accepted fascism like it's normal.
AMERICANS HAVE NORMALIZED FASCISM BECAUSE OF JOE ROGAN.
Take a breath.
If you run around calling everyone a fascist no-one will take you seriously.
Rogan is not an elected official nor really active in anything to rise to the level of fascist. He's a piece of shit moron, but if he's a fascist that everyone and no-one is.
He called one person a fascist whom spreads fascist propaganda
I think you are placing the bar for facism a bit high friend. You don't have to be in government or influential in any way to be a fascist. You can be a homeless person who hasn't spoken to another person in a year and still be a fascist. You can also be a fascist without believing that you are..
Fascism is both a set of beliefs taken to an extreme and actions wittingly or not done that furthers the power or reach of an organized group who holds those beliefs. More or less it means facism can be something you do rather than something you believe strongly in. Your rank and file facist is tricked into the position.
Joe Rogan is either a facist or a puppet/ tool of facists that serves as a algorithm kidnapper into their pipeline to normalize their veiw points. Whether Rogan himself holds these beliefs personally is kind of irrelevant. It is the use to which he has been put and the damage is done.
So what word would you prefer for someone who intentionally provides a large platform for fascists to spout their rhetoric and misinformation, thus helping them gain power?
This is not how being a fascist works.
