    Why do people listen to this idiot? His stance changes when the wind blows. The “wind” being a threat to his profit.

    I mean, I don’t think Rogan is “Evil,” or even little “e” evil, but for Pete’s sake, he’s just a meathead dudebro who has let fame and money go to his head. He should go back to just smoking weed and talking about aliens.

      Recklessly endangering the health of an entire democratic system for short term monetary gain is definitely little e evil.

          His entire job as an MMA commentator is to interview people who were recently concussed into a pulp. That’s about where he’s at — able to converse with people who are struggling to stay lucid enough to not get carried out on a stretcher. Something something DMT and gorillas, Jamie pull that up.

            Funny that you mention that;

            He’s stated multiple times that when he knocked that other kid cold for a long, long time with the spinning back kick in that tournament, he decided then to stop, before he got major CTE.

            He stopped way too late.

            No offense to anyone with a traumatic brain injury. But most of them don’t host Nazis and other pieces of human garbage to influence legions of teenage boys.

              Had a CTE when I was 8. A very long time ago.

              And I just keep getting more progressive as I creep towards inevitable mortality.

      That’s textbook Nazis. They were all for it until it wasn’t popular and a threat to their profit.

      Unprincipled self-serving assholes ARE evil. If you spread dangerous words that end up motivating people into harming others, YOU are at fault.

      That is why we shouldn’t tolerate hateful talk towards innocent people, even when “he’s just joking!”, “she doesn’t really mean it!”. Enough little words together make an avalanche, and his words are not even little.

      He’s either woefully ignorant, or he’s a Kremlin asset. The amount of Russian propaganda that comes out of his mouth is next level. He has refused to interview the Klitshkow brothers about Ukraine, and those guys are both prime candidates for that podcast. Former boxers turned politicians that want to speak their side on Ukraine, and he couldn’t be bothered. Instead, he was happy to have Tulsi Gabbard, Tim Pool, and Jordan Peterson on multiple times to spout pure propaganda. It’s infuriating that anyone gives him the time of day to listen to what his podcast has become.

        It really, really wouldn’t surprise me if a good bit of his fortune is Russian money laundered through American corporations. We all already know that many other Right Wing Grifters got paid that way, Pool being the most well known.

        funny how they all went quiet when it was found out the media company funding the grifters was linked to putins oligarches, roegan probably became one very recently. Tulsi is a given, she has been one since '16, and her being a right wing ASIANs youtube channel was pretty obvious too. she was a guest on that channel just right before trump was elected(like a few weeks before, which was suspicious), she was of course parroting russian backed propaganda.

      I would have agreed a decade ago. He’s evil now though.

      Some More News did an excellent segment on Rogan. One of the interesting things they noted is Rogan’s tendency to stay in opposition to the running political power. This checks out
