Joe Rogan calling people out over mental fitness is a prime example of a pot calling a kettle black.

Not directly related beyond steaming and podcasting apparently rotting people’s brains, but I just watched a stream where a guy tried to cough up a lung and then said “it’s not allergies, chat, it’s just hay fever”

Like, damn bro. You’re about to get clowned on by thirteen year olds with more medical knowledge than you.

In case I’m not the only one who didn’t know what hay fever is:

Hay fever is the common name for allergic rhinitis.

Hay fever is caused by the nose and/or eyes coming into contact with environmental allergens, such as pollens (grasses, weeds or trees), dust mite, moulds and animal dander.

Fuckin lmao

Did he correct himself? I doubt it, so a huge portion of his listeners just believe it was Joe Biden now and that will never change?

The article wasn’t very long, you could read it… Rogan was corrected and he acknowledged his mistake.

I’m certainly not a Rogan fan, having never listened to his podcast, but this doesn’t seem like something to roast him too much over, anymore than most of us know he doesn’t really fact check anything himself.

No he didn’t. He just said “oh Trump fucked up”. That’s not admitting his mistake. He didn’t say “oh well then maybe Trump shouldn’t be president”.

One of the most punchable throats in media makes nonsensical noises. Film at eleven.

Dude doesn’t even have a neck. He literally has one of the least punchable throats.

Edit - he’s like a turtle with his head retracted. Just a forehead sticking out of a wide torso

I seen a bit of this interview yesterday. The article doesn’t cover it all. As soon as these 2 knuckleheads started spewing airports and it was Biden that said this I was confused as this was something Trump said a few years back. Didn’t they know? They ride the media for skewing things and they weren’t even aware of how Trump was called out in the same media for this some time back.

Below this fellow breaks down the double standard in more detail than the article does. It covers how Rogan and his Guest said no one should listen to Biden and how he is unfit for office due to this airport thing. Then when the producer points out to Rogan that Biden is referring to what Trump previously said, it wasn’t a big deal all of a sudden to Rogan and the guest.

Trump gets a “whoopsie doodle” pass and Trump is still the better choice in his mind I’m sure. Not saying Biden is a gem of a rose but with how hard the right are trying to pin anything on Biden and failing, Trump is still a rotten to the core choice for endless reasons.

In short: Joe Rogan is a crypto-fascist.

At least a few months back Alex Jones was bragging about finally converting Rogan to his side. He’d been telling his audience for years he’s been working on getting Rogan to take his stance.

Its always unfalsifiable. They’re right no matter their position, $100 million > objective reality any day /s

Thats why estoppel in the legal system and the legal system in general are Trump’s kryptonite, even if it looks like hes constantly usurping it. Make him pin down himself and he just can’t do it so he loses cuz he can’t stop himself from hedging or being sure what he says is going to be universally adored by those he “represents”

Also, like those Targets that let you steal until its a felony and both of you hit the big time 🎬

To that, Rogan responded, “Oh, so [Trump] fucked up.” Nickal commented, “That’s the thing about media these days. You gotta look into it.”

It’s almost like other instances of those two elderly gentlemen speaking exists and Rogan can use those as context

Biden is mentally unfit to do 4 more years as president. Trump may also be mentally unfit but he’s a lot more mentally present than Biden

Trump 8 years ago wasn’t as mentally present as Biden is now. That’s not even a defense of Biden - Trump is such a goddamn idiot that he has never in his life been as mentally present as an emu. He has a shit brain and always has.

Not if you actually listen to what they say. But you, and apparently millions of other Americans, only pay attention to energy and not substance. Trump is more energetic than Biden but he’s also completely incoherent. Biden still has a very strong command of policy and the political process, can give and take with reporters on the fly. He just happens to speak less energetically.

He claims he voted libertarian in the last election but I feel pretty confident that won’t happen next year.
