Joe Rogan's existence lowers the quality of life for a significant number of people.

[–] newthrowaway20 35 points 10 months ago (2 children)

He is trying to fill the vacuum of space left by the outing of Alex Jones.

There's lots of money in it for him if he gets to that status.

[–] Cabrio 10 points 10 months ago

You need substance to fill a vaccum.

[–] postmateDumbass 1 points 10 months ago

He is our future Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

Need to get this stitched and on a wall.

[–] postmateDumbass 3 points 10 months ago

I miss the days when he just tried to be Art Bell.

[–] kescusay 95 points 10 months ago (5 children)

Do any of these fuckers have any idea what "fraud" is? Or the first clue what evidence of it would look like?

I swear to God, they think they can just say it over and over, and will it into being true. Fuck them forever. Never vote Republican, and always vote.

Joe Rogan got famous playing an idiot that can't understand basic shit on a TV show...

And then we all found out he wasn't acting.

He's unapologetically ignorant but for some reason thinks he knows more than everyone else.

[–] Catma 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

And yet, he is still not the worst person that was on Newsradio

[–] Ensign_Crab 17 points 10 months ago

Andy Dick: the worst person in a set of people that also contains Joe Rogan.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 10 months ago

Considering trump lost over 60 court cases for not being able to produce a single shred of evidence of election fraud, I’m afraid the answer is no, the republicans do not in fact have any idea what facts are. And they love to cry about it.

[–] SkyezOpen 28 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They know they're lying, but if they say it enough that all their followers believe it, it doesn't have to be true.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

I was pondering this only this morning. How cynical they have to be to lie so blatantly and know their followers will eat it up. And the contempt they must have for their base of idiots, knowing how easily they are led.

[–] Redditsucks1 3 points 10 months ago

Oh, they know, but only because they just became "woke".

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I'm sure a lot of them know what fraud is, unless it's more of a Kevin Malone situation where he has to have insider trading explained multiple times "because it sounds a lot like what I do every day"

Kari Lake and all her adherents are cunts. Joe Rogan and every single one of his fans are cunts. This isn't rocket science.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

It's cunt science!

Joe “knuckle-dragger” Rogan and his political takes. He keeps in contact with Alex jones who openly brags about radicalizing him. Several episodes of the Knowledge Fight podcast have shown this.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Its amazing how much "fraud" they claim when they speak publicly yet they have nothing to say when they are under oath in a court room.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Do people still listen to Rogan?

Millions listened before Spotify, but they aren't helping.

[–] YoBuckStopsHere 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He is popular with the type of crowd that thinks WWE is real.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wait, you mean the Undertaker really isn't a zombie?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Pfft, what are you, an idiot? Of course he's not a zombie.

He's a revenant.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Sadly he's the most listened to podcaster in the US according to some metrics.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago

Conservatives monetized lying to people and ginning up exploitable rage. Rogan just wants his share of the take.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes, let's get our news and opinions from stand up comics. What could go wrong. Fuck experts. Next time I want medical advice I'll listen to a podcast.

[–] Squizzy 4 points 10 months ago

He was a worse comic than pundit

[–] [email protected] 24 points 10 months ago
[–] reddig33 21 points 10 months ago

The only “real fraud” in her election was Kari Lake.

[–] TheJims 17 points 10 months ago

Joe Rogan is back acne in human form. Just like Alex Jones.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yawn. Wake me up when there is actual tangible provable evidence of voter fraud. You know, besides the 2 examples of voter fraud for Trump out of 160 million votes in the 2020 election.

[–] pozbo 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

All the evidence is on the heisenberg laptop which we can know the evidence it contains OR know the location of, but never both factors at once.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

No all the missing votes are definitely on Hunter Biden's laptop

[–] ChokingHazard 14 points 10 months ago

The real fraud is she got too many votes.

[–] YoBuckStopsHere 9 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

We banned that bot site wide for those wondering wth that was.

Joe needs to lay off the drugs. You could hide a kayak under those bags around his eyes.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Rogan is a stochastic terrorist and enemy of people who value the rule of law, freedom and democracy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Worse. He’s a fucking selfish dick that’s willing to sell out the stability of democracy for a piece of paper.

Edit. Actually what you typed is worse. Agree that Rogan is a POS.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

100% with you

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity, but this is deep into stupid territory.

[–] TokenBoomer 4 points 10 months ago

Apparently, fear… is not a factor for her. /s
