Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

The same idiot who says these are "soft times" producing "soft men."

We've had "once in a generation" catastrophes every fucking year I've been alive, Joe.

[–] dumbass@piefed.social 129 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Joe just wants to be surrounded by hard men!

"We got him elected."

There were clips of rogans shitty podcast after trump got elected and Joe Rogan was ecstatic saying this shit. I'm not gonna search for the clip but I'm pretty sure he said it, and undeniably he was enthusiastic about trump winning.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 27 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He also castigated environmental protesters, that's what turned me off from him, although I don't pay attention or I would be well off already. This guy is an opportunist. He believes in nothing.

[–] Horsey@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago (4 children)

He was radicalized by Covid lockdowns and not being able to do his entertainment jobs. The guy had enough money to just chill, but he couldn’t just wait it out like the rest of us. He’s worse than agnostic, he’s self centered to the core.

And you helped make it happen Joe, good job.

[–] cuerdo@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

He is a hired gun, don't expect any honesty nor consistency

[–] PDFuego@lemmy.world 62 points 2 months ago

Man if I were Joe I'd be so pissed off at the most popular podcaster in the world for having one of the richest men in the world who bought one of the most widely-used social media sites in the world on his podcast the day before the election to help endorse Trump. If only half the planet had seen this coming and said something!

[–] stylusmobilus@aussie.zone 45 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Joe Rogan, like their president, reflects them.

Only the United States could give us Rogan and make him as popular as he is.

The downfall can’t come fast enough honestly. These arseholes deserve retribution for the shit they’ve done and since the citizenry lacks the spine and decency to do it, collapse of the nation is the only way.

This guy is such a fucking clown.

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 39 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I have to disagree. Clowns are funny.

[–] Jessvj93@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They also go to college, and most importantly, finish.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

And normally when clowns do something controversial they can't find work.

This dickbag says something stupid and his viewership goes up.

They vote for entertainment.

[–] PugJesus@piefed.social 30 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. It's a soap opera to them. Or WWE.

Or just sports... Shit you see asshole act the same way about musicians and actors.

Clearly this is, uh, Biden's fault.

[–] Houseman@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

Thanks O'Biden

Well you see the kids are peeing in liter-boxes, so obviously we need to bomb Iran.

Initial image says:

"Rogan: Nothing seems stable. Everywhere in the world seems fucked right now. In all my years, this seems the most unstable, globally."

Twitter response says:

"votes to destabilize the world

15 months later:"

[–] manxu@piefed.social 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's wrong, though. The chaos is not universal, it's coming from a single place. A white house with a giant hole next door.

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This one? Kremlin

I hadn't heard about the hole, but I'll ask Ukraine.

[–] manxu@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I used to listen to this prick - he's always been kind of dumb, but his show was fun and attracted a broad spectrum of guests under the assumed banner of free speech. Most of the show's subjects intersected with my own interests: food, health, tech, psychedelia, politics, self-optimization. Other episodes offered a peek behind the curtain of some of our culture's ugliest, most insane ideological backwaters. This was frankly irresistible to someone like me, like hate-watching trashy TV, but I was engaging with it critically.

There were endless threads debating whether it was right to give some of those guests such a platform, but in general, we were all so sure that Joe was a progressive hero just shining a light on these figures. He said just enough of the right things to keep the audience coming back, and his detached approach was rationalized away. We thought that if he pushed back on these guys in any meaningful way they wouldn't go on the show and show us who they were.

In hindsight, fans who weren't alt-right weirdos were naive and misinterpreted his aloofness. Of course, the arrival of Trump and maga laid everything bare. Still, the resultant chickens of social decay have come home to roost.

I'm looking forward to this asshole's fade into irrelevance, but I'm not sure it will ever come.

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

His detachment is a red flag. He's had a wealthy and comfortable life for a long time and it has protected him from whatever his guests are up to or the impact having them on his show causes. So long as Joe Rogan and his family as safe, he has no worries putting others in jeopardy. This is the fundamental right wing ideological stance that allows the cruelty. He should be able to do whatever he wants because his selfishness makes him blind to the harm he causes. He could be having these conversations in private if he was just curious and wanted to learn, instead he chooses to broadcast them to the world but refuses to even acknowledge any responsibility for the consequences.

[–] bibbasa@piefed.social 12 points 2 months ago

owWOWOWO what a coinkidink, how do we fix this mr thiel?

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He said stable genius, not stability genius.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Stable genius = pretty smart for a horse
