Rogan has had on more people talking about Palestine than any mainstream news media and just as many ghouls. He's not good but he's also not very unique.

Rogan doesn't have many consistent ideological positions, but hating people he describes as "scolds" seems to be one of them. IIRC one of the reasons he said he liked Bernie a lot is because he didn't feel like Bernie was pretending at being some enlightened being shaking his finger at the teeming masses (not his words), and I get that. It's a good way to fit it in your head why somebody who is totally disengaged and scattershot in their beliefs would like Bernie but hate Hillary and Neera

yeah, it's this.

i also liked when he had on dave rubin saying contractors don't need GOVERNMENT REGULATION to make them build a house safely, bc the FREE MARKET motivates them to do a good job, rogan immediately calls bullshit and u can see from the look on his face how confused he is to be the smart one in the room. has rogan had marianne on his show? they could swap rubein ownage war stories

Any time Rogan has a lefty guest there will be deep discussions about systematic problems in America and what to do about them and you feel like he actually grew in his view point that day.

Then an episode later he will have on another guest and agree with them that the real problem is those darn SJWs.

Doesn't matter who you get on his show, because part of his problem is he is a rube with a goldfish memory who's view point is based on who he talked to last. Unless it's about weed then he has strong permanent positions.

yup but that's ok. he would have the anti-SJW chud on either way. if some of his massive fanbase gets exposed to real progressive ideas for one show it's a win, even if the majority of them just wind up thinking, "huh, i don't really agree with them, but they aren't as dumb and crazy as steven crowder says they are"

The best Joe Rogan is one with Graham Hancock, who’s a looney who believes in atlantis and ancient aliens and poo poo, and the reason Joe is into that stuff is because Graham Hancock is way into dmt and mushrooms and they met at a legalization convention and did mushrooms together and Joe loved those mushrooms.

Because Hillary was the candidate of empire abroad while Trump was the candidate of genociding at home. Hillary had a proven track record while Trump didn't. Bernie people care about evidence and results in their evil.

"The Man Who Cannot Deadlift"

I’ll definitely agree that there are Bernie -> Trump voters/converts, as I’ve met them myself. One of my old high school acquaintances is exactly that voter. The thing you have to understand is that they have extremely shallow beliefs and political understanding. This acquaintance of mine was in favor of Bernie because of a vague anti-government sentiment and thought having healthcare would be cool, and he figured Bernie was gonna take the elitist rich down a notch. Then Bernie didn’t get the nomination and Trump was talking about draining the swamp, so he latched onto Trump. This dude also used to regularly link to poo poo by Milo, vague anti-SJW sentiment, and even once requested people donate to Project Veritas for his birthday. He himself is a queer, poly, POC who also happens to be the textbook definition of a limp-wristed soyboy according to his own words, though he seems to not realize this at all

People like that don’t give a gently caress about facts or political theory. They don’t think about any implications of anything. He likes Trump because Trump projects an image of strength and pays lip service to the vague concept of disliking the government. It’s why stupid lib twitter takedowns and gotchas of Trump’s incoherent speeches and tweets is completely worthless, because none of these people give a gently caress about any of it and barely even understand what it means. Bernie actually looked like he wanted to do stuff to help people, but the Dems are completely worthless and spineless for the most part

Speaking of which even in the most recent election its is pretty impressive that the Dems are coming at Trump on his strength. Cause while his genocide at home is certainly showier Biden's slavery revival through prison labor is undeniably stronger long term.
