For people of a certain age, Joe Rogan seems like wildly fun entertainment. To me, the guy's an antivaxing piece of shit, whose reach and influence caused so much damage and undoubtedly thousands of deaths during the pandemic. I wonder what sort of person you have to be to be able to look past that and clap "monkey man funny"
I used to listen to it religiously. He had a few fucked up views but in a long form podcast it used to get washed out. Like his universal basic income views and then him platforming Stefan something ... (like an incel cult leader). In the latter case he thought it was better to bring someone on with opposing views and then see them get flushed out over time and in that case, you see it exposed.
I think what Joe didn't anticipate was that his desire to be a contrarian and find the viewpoints away from the mainstream, so much so, that it did him a disservice. He doesn't have the mental defenses up to put up with the propaganda he was inflicted upon. He became the 'Joe Rogan questions everything' guy to 'Joe Rogan believes anything' guy.
I had it when he became fully antivax and wishes he would just go away now.
Short answer: he cut himself on his own edginess.
Stefan Molyneux. Litigious cult leader who harps on defooing, which is similar to going No Contact and could possibly be good advice but the way he actually uses it is harmful and isolating like scientology's "disruptive persons' or JW's disfellowshipping.
Also he made a documentary about going to Poland and visiting some white supremacists and decided he actually liked it, being only around white nazis.
Every once in a while I see an article about Stefan and go "Jeez, that guy's gone really downhill since Black and White."
This mother fucker are bugs on a gameshow. He is and always was a clown dancing for change.

YOU LEAVE HANDSOME PETE OUT OF THIS!
Yaar
A quarter?! He'll be dancing for hours!

“Imagine if we got a polar bear on a bunch of DMT. Wait, can polar bears do DMT? Jamie, pull that up.”
"Imagine if they did though. Imagine you're chilling in your backyard and you hear RUUAHAWGGHAHR and suddenly there's this big fucking bear coming at you"
This is much, much funnier than I expected
If she smokes the devil’s lettuce with Rogan, she’ll jump 10 points overnight.
This some hot funny right cheer
