Alex literally rants about Satan and devil worshipping Democrats who should be murdered, this isn’t some cute conspiracy crank. Rogan is a fucking moron.
Alex Jones will get the show views. That is the only ideology Rogan has. If Adolf Hitler was found alive in Argentina, Rogan would have him on.
Eh, this is more guessing than anything. Also, hitler didn’t like Catholics
They did, and that is something I as a Catholic have been trying to bring to light. I just believe that there should be forms of evidence for quite bold claims like that
I think he did it to piss off the parent company. No joke. Also, bullshit like this is good for the Rogan brand. Just allowing any random maniac on reinforces the market place of ideas narrative for the cult of dude bros that listen every week.
Joe Rogan will do an election night commentary together with Alex Jones and Kyle Kulinski (secular talk) . I'm guessing al the non-political viewers will find one of them more rational and perhaps want to check out what he's all about.
They're apparently friends off the air as well.
I just hope that one day they both take a little too much DMT and wind up in some steam tunnels like in Mazes and Monsters.
To be fair to Joe they've known each other since before infowars. They tried to break into Bohemian Grove back in the 90s
He's been friends with comedians for the last like 35 years. Do you think the kind of stuff Alex Jones says is new to him? He's been best friends with Eddie Bravo since forever who is basically Alex but just less funny.
He's a dumb guy who has political people on his dumb guy podcast but he is largely apolitical. Thinking about politics probably makes Joe's head hurt. Expecting him to be politically literate or have any kind of cohesive identity is insanity.
Joe Rogan is literally nobody. He is famous because he is the UFC commentator and managed to make a successful podcast of that lol like honestly what do you expect?
He's too dumb to push back on his insane right wing guests and is too dumb to realize the damage he does, so why care?
A lot of these people care when he gives his inexplicably large platform to right-wing dickheads, furthering the dudebro-to-fascist pipeline.
I don't give a shit about Joe Rogan or his show or his guest lineup, but I can see why other people get hot and bothered about it.
I agree with basically all of the reasons why people who arent right-wing fuckwits would not like rogan or his podcast, I have just come to accept that he is literally too dumb to do anything about it.
How he can have Cornell West on and agree with literally everything and then the next day brings on generic right wing lunatic #32 and also agree with literally everything is just something I have decided is not worth thinking about.
I was going to talk about how I use to like the oldschool JRE where the biggest guests were like neil degrasse tyson or the head of epic games when Gears of War was huge but I think it's more that I just liked being alive better back then (probably because I was a child and was incapable of thinking broadly about the world and how absolutely cancer it is)
Yeah, it's one of those things that we have no control over, so I have to wonder why any of us should care about it. Maybe I've gone full doomer and just accepted that some things are always going to be shit, but I don't want to waste any of my energy wringing my hands over Joe Rogan.
I just think of all the things to care about trying to fix, is the joe rogan podcast really something that matters at all? Even if we somehow lobby joe to not be a right wing moron what have we won? A singular celebrity with a moderate following is now probably a lib instead of a dumbass? Most of the largest celebrities are libs and yet America is still largely a conservative hellhole.
Helping a single person in your real life understand class consciousness does infinitely more to make the world better (especially yours) than being mad at joe rogan for being dumb.
For one thing a bunch of people who liked Jones in the early 00s when he was only known for 9/11 is an inside job and bilderburg just switched over to Rogan. I know a couple people like this and would bet that a big percentage of Rogan's bro audience were once into Alex Jones.
its all a big laugh until people are shooting up pizza shops and mosques
Season 2 episode 2 of Newsradio features a discussion in a coffee shop about Dilbert and a cameo by Scott Adams. This would not be the last encounter between Adams and Rogan...
Don't know why anyone expects Rogan's show to be a platform that has some kind of positive impact on the world. At best it's net neutral dumb bullshit.
I for one enjoyed the imagery of a photograph of Henry Kissinger sticking his own finger up his ass
Alex Jones is a more honesty human being than 90% of the political class
