I just don't understand how so many people can say with a plain face "I just didn't think he would do again exactly what he did the first time he was president."
I mean, I do believe that Joe Rogan is both ignorant and stupid, so…
Lot's of YouTubers play stupid, so that they get better engagement with their public, like saying some wrong things like it was a mishap gives you comments, being a bit dumbish makes people think they can outsmart you etc etc. it's a monetary strategy. IMO.
I call it this as "The Voter's Wager", essentially they believe less bad things will happen than promised, and more good things, because people are too confident in the "politicians just say things sometimes they don't mean".
I was a little shocked that they used Project 2025 so thoroughly, I though they'd just pull a few key things and try them out at first. Instead they do like half of it in 6 months. It's astonishing for people on both sides, it's definitely not what we're used to. Obama had 8 years and tons of political capital and only got a couple signature initiatives done, nothing like Trump's dozens and dozens.
The wealthy are in favor of Project 2025, so there is no real opposition to it. The wealthy did not want healthcare reform, so it had to be fought for tooth and nail only to end up with a compromise of handing tax money directly to insurance companies.
theo von is like the temu roegan.
I always thought he was a dumb media whore, but it turns out that he's stupid for free.

Never bothered to listen to him, but a local stand up comedian has probably watched every podcast episode of his, and discussed it quite a bit on his own podcast: Nobody should listen to Rogan. He's an entertainer and that's it. He'll allow anyone on his podcast regardless of beliefs and he tends to either believe or pretend to believe them when they spew conspiracy theories and other bullshit. His political opinions depend on who's been on his show and that's it. Most guests have been right-wing grifters for a long time now, so that's what he believes.
And that's from a FAN of Joe Rogan.
"But, but, you see, once authoritarianism starts creeping in, and it makes some inroads, which it's definitely making right now man."
The irony of Duncan Trussel saying this while wearing a Palantir hat feels like a top tier psyop. I'm not even conspiratorial but there is no conceivable world where you could be that dense.
no conceivable world where you could be that dense.
Peter Thiel believing to prevent the Antichrist with Palantir could be more dense.
Thats what you get for being a stupid POS joe.
Trump's campaign promise was 10 million deportations or something like that. Did Rogan think there was 10 million criminals just out of control last year?
In March was when we started seeing news of tourists, grandmas, ice cream men, and small business owners getting thrown into ICE Internment camps. In May, we started seeing kids being rounded up.
And only now is he going, "Hey this is weird?" I can't believe I used to listen to this dude.
The thing they were doing under Biden?
When a republican says "criminals" they mean "brown people who aren't filthy rich". Which, just to be clear, does not include drug cartels or any other people typically included by the word "criminal".
Fuck Joe Rogan's dumb ass and his willingness to take every republican propaganda statement at face value.
Ignorance of the law isn't a defense, ignorance of obvious reality shouldn't be either. He's complicit and he knows it.
Yeah Joe, you and 100 million other idiots.
Actually no, this is deliberate mass ignorance. The GOP has openly advocated hunting minorities for a while now, and used the word criminal like an insult, not a statement of fact.
He really needs de-platformed like Alex Jones. Same human sewage machine.
I don't think you can deplatform people who are being injected with cash by the richest people in the world. Best folks can do is expose where their money's coming from.
He's just mirroring what his user base is thinking. We might be giving him too much credit with changing people's minds: he just says what his listeners want to hear.
In 2024, it was all about how Trump was going to restore American men to greatness and power against the encroaching evil of criminal immigrants, feminists, and trans drag queens (???)
Now the same American men have realized that's a bad look and he's just providing the excuse for why it was okay to support this stuff.
We might be giving him too much credit with changing people’s minds: he just says what his listeners want to hear.
That's from 2016 btw
he just says what his listeners want to hear.
This has literally always been his schtick. He also constantly agrees with everything his guest say even when they completely contradict each other.
He's got no actual opinions on anything and never has.
It must be hard to be stupid. Things happening all around you all the time that you don't understand.
Raised in a strictly authoritarian environment where critical thinking is shunned.
The world must seem so confusing to these people.
Rogan is a fucking tooool who enabled Trump 1 & 2.
Poor, poor, Joe Rogan. Reality has eluded him.
Thought is not something he has done on a regular basis
Joe Rogan and "thought". Who else thinks those do not go well together?
Fell For It Again award
Cue the very next episode where Joe will be spending 300x as much time berating the left because he saw a leftist do something stupid in an AI video with PS2 graphics.
Joe, you have a large platform, and Fuck You money, and can say or do anything that you choose. You could turn your entire listening base back to the light if you felt like it.
Nice of you to finally acknowledge reality, but you've got a lot more heavy lifting to do. You're not the enemy of my enemy just yet.
Joe meant to say hes a dipshit who got conned twice by the same conman lol
I'll never understand the masses of idiots, how they could be such fans of a guy like this. Go ahead and do a bunch of drugs and think you are figuring out the world, but maybe instead of broadcasting a bunch of half baked conspiracy theories, just keep it to yourself.
Why is anyone still listening to this moron?
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

What a useful idiot.
They thought that meal team six would have balls to go after someone who might fight back?
