“I do remember one thing he said to me. Joe Rogan was being so fucking mean to me one day—and mostly we were all friends, but Joe could be a weirdo—and I was sort of upset about it, so I was just sitting over in the corner. And Phil came over and put his arm around me, and he said, ‘You know, I just want to tell you you’re loved.’ Isn’t that really nice? I know you expected me to tell some wacky story about Phil, but he was like that, too. He just put his arm around me and said that. He was so sweet. He was a really nice man.” - Maura Tierney speaking about Phil Hartman and Joe Rogan on her time on NewsRadio.
"Kids are extremely malleable. They are extremely easy to manipulate. They are extremely easy to influence." - Joe Rogan describes his business model to Aaron Rodgers.
I don't watch Joe Rogan or listen to his Experience podcast. Unfortunately, the Youtube algorithm, which forcibly promotes Reactionary liars, forces him into my recommendations all the time. So, I am exposed to his bullshit on a regular basis which has in turn forced me to listen to critique of his lies from other channels.
Joe Rogan was always an asshole, but now he's a full-blown reactionary liar who uncritically regurgitates every rightwing lie which comes across his punch-drunk, encephalitic, drug-addled brain. Rogan continues to produce these bon mottes of rightwing outrage that his young male audience listens to and absorbs on the basis of his journalistic intergrity and authority
"So that, that's a real thing..." Joe Rogan intoned: about a big beard man getting into an argument with a black women in Chicago about using the women's bathroom as his disgusting slobby guest loudly masticated a cough drop.
World, bro. You ever see this video? There's this lady in Chicago and this guy is trying to use the women's room and she's going in there with her daughter. And this guy has a full beard, just a full beard. And she's yelling at him. She's like, you are whole, you are a whole man. And he is like, I am a woman. And they're like big deep breath. Like deep voice, big husky guy with a fucking beard. It's like, it's like, what the fuck man? Like what the fuck is this really is this, is this being kind? Is that what this is? Is this being open-minded and compassionate? Or is this opening the door to fucking psychopath? This is it. Yeah. Click this. Look at this.
Once his off-screen producer pointed out this was some "satire" sketch, Joe Rogan turned from an aggrieved angry white man to a befuddled rube, "Oh that women's a great actor!"
While speaking with avowed fascist Tulsi Gabbard, Joe Rogan helped catapult the Cat Litter in elementary schools rightwing lie, by telling a 'My Friend Story', who had personally seen the cat litter for children who identified as cats and dogs.
My friend, his wife is a school teacher. She works at a school that had to install a litter box in the girl’s room because there is a girl who is a furry who identifies as an animal, and her mother badgered the school until they agreed to put a litter box in one of the stalls. So this girl goes into the litter room, or to the girl’s room, and urinates or whatever. I don’t know if she poops in it, that’s gross...You’ve conned the school into putting this fucking litter box in a girl’s room, which is bananas.
Oddly, that Republican lie was just before the 2022 election. Funny how Tough guy Rogan attacks the vulnerable Trans youth community. Even when he had to admit he made this shit up and spread a readily available Republican lie he couched his walk back in oh a wacky mother had lied to him. He didn't lie, you see... he was lied to.
I fed into that and I should probably clarify a little bit. I have a friend, and my friend’s wife is a schoolteacher, and she told him that there was [sic] discussions in the school that a mother wanted to put a litter box in one of the bathrooms. He told me this and I talked about it on here, and then people were saying ‘That’s not true, that’s an internet rumor.’ So I contacted him again, and I said ‘Tell me exactly what she said. Contact her and find out.’ She no longer works for that school, she works for another school. She contacted the other school, she didn’t get a response.
Seemingly mocking the Australian officials by speaking in a slow, dopey voice, Rogan continued: “They were saying, ‘Whoa, you could grow your own food. And what else? The disease was from your food. It infects the population, kills us off. Oh, we can’t have that.’”
Rogan said he didn’t know what the justification was for the law but he was “pretty sure” it had to do with agricultural contamination.
“You could justify it if you were a real piece of shit, you could say most pandemics come from agriculture … fucking creeps man, these fucking creeps, they got a good grip on people during the pandemic,” he lamented.
“That’s how you motherfucking smoke out an anti-vaxxer, you can’t even go to the grocery store any more and you can’t grow your own food.”
His producer, Jamie Vernon, then Googled the topic, which threw a spanner in the works of Rogan’s rant. “Nothing’s coming up,” he said. “The closest I can find is New Zealand.”
“Hold on,” Rogan replied, whipping out his own phone, to no avail. “It’s got to be a real thing … it seems too good to not be … damn it, it better not be fake.
“Did you hear what he said yesterday, or a couple days ago?” Rogan asked his guest, MMA fighter Bo Nickal, in an exchange first flagged by Mediaite. “He’s talking about the Revolutionary War. He’s like, ‘One of the reasons why we lost the Revolutionary War ... was that they didn’t have enough airports. If you were you at any other job, and you were talking like that, they’d go, ‘Hey, you’re done,’” Rogan added.
When it was pointed out to Rogan, Jello-brained syphilitic Trump had made these comments, oh well never mind.
“Oh, OK,” Rogan said. “So Trump fucked up.” “You can tell he, like, messed up his words,” Nickal said. “But that’s the thing about media these days, it’s like, you gotta look into it.”
And... ya just can't trust that MEDIA!
Non-Stop Covid Lies:
In 2022, BBC fact-checked Rogan's COVID, Vaccine, Ivermectin, Hydroxochloriquine lies. But, Rogan has lied for going on 3 years about Covid and Vaccines and it's really not worth going through each and every episode in which Rogan lies. Even when guests point out Joe Rogan was wrong about his wild rightwing lies about "myocarditis" he simply goes back to it and continues to lie. In fact, in January Rogan brought a Canadian semi-comedian Tony Hinchcliffe on to claim Canada's life expectancy has gone down due to the "forced" vaccinations by Justin Trudeau.
Rogan and Rodgers had a horrible falsehood-filled conversation ranging over Trans persons, Vaccines, and Banana Republics. Additionally, Rodgers lied again about his attempted smear-job of Jimmy Kimmel and it also led to Rogan claiming Rodgers had been proved right about his Anti-Vaxx nonsense. Rogan also claimed a Fucking New York Times opinion piece proved Jordan Peterson was right about Trans people. And this all made me realize where we are these days. Rogan & Rodgers are Reactionaries who are simply going to proclaim themselves right and dare anyone to question them. That's really how Fascist have always operated, declare themselves in charge and eliminate anyone who challenges them.
Rogan has lied so often, and with such shameless abandon it would be nice, if people slotted Joe Rogan into the same category once occupied by Racist Limpballs because he's advancing the same tired ideology of rightwing oppression, bigotry, and slavery. But, like always, the youth must learn the lessons the past generations learned all over again. I'm actually sure Rogan would love to call himself a "harmless little fuzzball" and not a well-paid member of the Media, with the number #1 podcast on Spotify 3 years running.
There has been much made about the crisis facing young men in America, as women increasingly take over college, jobs which require brute muscle fade, and the trades no long provide the long-term stability and income needed to raise a family to make the American dream.
As young men flounder, Republicans have increasingly placed the blame on Wokeism (which they can not define) and culture. Rogan presents himself as a bad ass, martial artist, comedian, and a bon vivant of edgy things like kettlebells and ketamine. But, Rogan lies so often and so willfully the young men who listen to him are getting purposefully misinformed and it's showing. Rogan isn't alone in advancing Edge Lord Fascism but, as the #1 Spotify Show 4 years running he's clearly punching above his weight.
