    oh, roegan, you dont get to backout of the situation you caused. you were primarly responsible for convincing men to vote for trump by luring them into the manosphere. stick to UFC and only talk about MMA.

    Liking trump now turned cringe, that’s the only reason these knuckle draggers are speaking out.

    I wouldn’t even want work out advice from them. They shouldn’t even be taken seriously ever.

    I’m so very fucking done with Rogan. I was before, too, but I still am now. It baffles me how that idiot gained such an unbelievably huge following. The fact that he did, and furthermore probably had a real impact on the election results, doesn’t imply anything positive for my countrymen 🫩

    Joe Rogan was pals with the Tate brothers. I have no idea how anyone just excused that and watched his deep as a puddle questioning.

      a long time ago, a new coworker told me he listened to it. I checked out a few episodes. they were shit and made me question the coworker. I searched for episodes with guests I’d be interested in. those episodes were also shit.

      my opinion of that coworker was definitely strongly affected by how they regularly listened to Joe Rogan. that, and the fact that their work kind of sucked

      Undoubtedly. Ten years ago it was easier to ignore when he had an interesting guest. He’s been riding that momentum.

    Honestly, the way Kylinski talked about the Graham Platner accusers, both before and after the one he believed, puts him in the exact same camp as these Roegan dbags. Just another white misogynistic dudebro going “bitches be lyin”. I’m glad that apparently everyone is stating the obvious about American fascism, but that is really the bare minimum to be taken seriously.

      Oh man, he’s doing that shit now? Damn, you hate to see it. I outgrew him years ago, but he was influential in stopping me from falling down the alt right pipeline a decade ago and was my on ramp to progressive politics

        I’m sorry friend. I went down the same road, way back in the day with Christopher Dawkins. His book God Delusion got me out of my parents religious BS which was the starting point of my life improving. Now he is just yet another garden variety bigot.

        (oh god and fucking gaiman) 🤮

        But yeah, here is a video with clips if you wanna see for yourself. He wasn’t the only glazing but Kyle’s particularly brzaen glee, before and after he realized he was wrong, is just disgusting.

          Ugh, yeah, Dawkins. I remember leaving the God Delusion out when I was a teenager so my parents knew I was reading it and rebelling lol

          Life really is just continually being let down by white men you once thought were cool, huh?

    We need to stop talking about Rogan. He’s a putz.

    And the correct term is Shitler. Dump = Shitler

      If you hate political commentary then sure I guess, but he was one of the founders of Justice Democrats in 2017, so at least he’s trying.

        Alright, I will look him up. Thanks for the info. Most influencer types are not worth the time.
