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.

[-] NauticalNoodle@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago

To his limited credit, I'm pretty sure he's called himself dumb in the past.

[-] TheTetrapod@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

He does it all the time, but as a means to excuse himself for uncritically platforming cretins after the fact.

Rogan is a fucking tooool who enabled Trump 1 & 2.

[-] carlossurf@lemmy.ca 29 points 2 months ago

Joe meant to say hes a dipshit who got conned twice by the same conman lol

[-] tortina_original@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

They thought that meal team six would have balls to go after someone who might fight back?

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Didnt you see they arrested that guy who was a multi traffic ticket violated with his last speeding ticket in 2013! Hasn't had a speeding ticket in 12 years, he's gotta be up to something

[-] HazardousBanjo@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

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.

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.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Some people, probably most, are that ignorant. My wife is a legal, brown immigrant, fighting for her 10-year visa, which should be a rubber stamp by now.

She had no clue. "They're only taking criminals." Hell, the immigration office told her not to worry about what she's seeing on the news. And low-level government workers like that aren't exactly parroting MAGA talking points. They just want to do their fucking job and go home.

And it's true! The odds of ICE snatching her are slim, especially since I haven't seen any around here and there's no ICE office in the region. The odds are slim for everyone, but they're ramping up fast and I've got a solid education in 20th century history. I know what's coming.

Took me some time to make her realize this is a real threat to her. I don't want to scare the shit out of the woman, but I'm nowhere outside the house, especially with her, unarmed.

My man, over half of Americans read at best on a 6th-grade level. How informed do you expect them to be?

One other thing, you're right, most undocumented aliens are in violation of civil law, not criminal. Read up on it a bit, IANAL, but you generally have to be purposefully fucking up for your border crossing to be a criminal offense.

[-] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

he said that hispanics are genetically criminal
but trump talks so much gibberish it’s impossible to listen to all of it.
conservative media leaves out the most horrible stuff while leftist media focuses on it….
it just shows rogan only consumes news from one side.

[-] Phegan@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

I actually think he's just that stupid.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

How did so many people get fooled by him when he'd already been president and was just like this for four years‽

Not that we didn’t know this already, but anybody that says this kind of shit immediately loses all credibility. It was 100% obviously bullshit when they said it. Just like getting Mexico to pay for the wall. Or Trump having a healthcare plan. It was all 100% bullshit.

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 months ago

It's Joe Rogan, he lost credibility about 15 years ago.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

He really did. He's such a fucking idiot. And a maliciously irresponsible one.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I'm not sure why he would ever be considered credible in this area to begin with

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.

[-] Triumph@fedia.io 12 points 2 months ago

Not quite.

Unidentified masked armed thugs snatching people off the street without due process and shipping them off to gulag (sometimes in a completely unrelated country) is wrong even if the people are criminals.

Criminals also have rights worth protecting.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

And one of your rights as a non criminal is a fair and speedy trial if someone mistakes you for one

[-] Triumph@fedia.io 6 points 2 months ago

Fair and speedy trial is a right we all enjoy, regardless of our criminal record.

[-] nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 4 points 2 months ago

TBH I'd prefer he just FOAD

[-] DasAlbatross@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

What a useful idiot.

[-] sgtgig@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

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?

No, Joe, you didn't. You are doped pit, but your brain isn't that destroyed. You knew, just as we all did.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

If that were true, and I don't believe it is, then you are a moron.

[-] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The last bit is definitely true.

Democracy is the best we've got and it still fuckin' sucks thanks to legions of idiots just like Joe Rogan.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 6 points 2 months ago

Why is anyone still listening to this moron?

[-] EndOfLine@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

For anyone not following things like elephant graveyard on YouTube, this shit is a face saving attempt for them.

Both him and Duncan Trussel are getting hammered by parts of their audiences for not only full throated support of Trump, but actually using their platforms to boost the shit. Same with Theo Von and a few of these other fucking clowns.

Duncan Trussel is famously the person in a space suit telling Rogan people are going to manipulate and use him. This shit is clownshoes.

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."

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.

They all assumed immigrants were 98% dangerous street criminals, 2% hardworking field and hotel workers, which is the observable part for them. They never considered it's the observable part because they're the backbone of several industries.

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.
