Careful Joe. That's sounding dangerously unconservative, and you know what the crazy conservative gun people do to those conservative voices that aren't conservative enough for them.

Joe should be much more afraid of the next Groyper aiming for him. Conveniently located in Texas.
So uh, the groyper narrative is now about as solid as the trans narrative. Everything's pointing to the guy growing up in a conservative household and disagreeing with his family and all the hate.
Groypers have been threatening Trump, Kirk and Shapiro since 2019.
Podcasters need to look anti-government, regardless of the ideology of the government.
Oh for sure, but the "next Groyper" thing is a bit misleading because the Kirk shooter likely wasn't one.
I wouldn't be surprised if they one day do shoot someone significant though.
Like white nationalists aren't randomly murdering people every day of the week
Well, no he didn't. Not really. I haven't heard it (and don't intend to) but according to the quotes in this article he didn't do that at all.
“The problem is the companies, if they are being pressured by the government – so if that’s real – and if people on the right are like ‘yeah, go get ’em,’ oh my God, you’re crazy. You’re crazy for supporting this because this will be used on you,” he said.
If, if, if. Wouldn't want to risk upsetting anyone would you?
Yep this is just hedging his bets and the media sainwashing him, as they're required to do for all right wing personalities
Don't give this guy any visibility, downvote the thread and upvote other ones.
Fucking dopes all of them. Joe Rogan and all his cocksucking fans. Fucking dipshits the lot of them.
You think so, Joe? You think the fascists might be crazy?
Obligatory fuck the unfunny Joe Rogan who ushered this fascist back in.
Rogan is spineless. Tells the people supporting Trump and his policies that they are crazy but doesn’t have the balls to actually say anything negative about Trump.
Rogan is a heavy cannabis and psychedelics user in Texas where they’re pushing to outlaw even Delta8 THC. He’s in a situation where he doesn’t want to leave for a legal jurisdiction, and could be made an example at any time. The guy could absolutely be singled out: at best he could be made to leave Texas, and at worst be jailed for his cannabis use and possession.
They don’t do that to rich people.
Nobody should be getting locked up over weed. That's so fucked. Texas might as well be Afghanistan
Nah, that would be when Ted Cruz made similar comments the other day.
Only because they are worried the next government will turn on them.
Well, not just that. They derive a great deal of success from ranting against the 'liberal agenda'. If all the vaguely left leaning voices are obviously silenced, then their own engagement goes down because there's no opposition voice to rant against. As ridiculous they look on a normal day, they look just utterly beyond crazy in a scenario where everyone but them are essentially gagged.
With all the bizarre shit that has happened since Charlie Kirk's shooting, and it's a new level of Bizarro World out there, the most bizarre may be that Rafael Edward Cruz was a voice of reason.
the bizarre shit that has happened since Charlie Kirk’s shooting
Now you have right wing gun folk saying the shot was impossible because they know the 30-06 would penetrate way more and do more massive damage than it did according to the report.
There is no physical way, even broken completely down, to fully put the murder weapon in the bag the alleged shooter was using to transport it.
It is literally physically impossible.
I've been wondering about that. They might have a point? Not saying that the shot was faked , but maybe something was off about the ammo. Idk, the 30.06 is a fairly good size round used to hunt moose and elk, seems like it could easily pass right through a person
30-06 is pretty much the same size round as 7.62 which is used in AK-47s. They will generally pass right through a person (Especially in soft tissue like the neck) but it’s a normal size round for shooting humans.
Thats not wrong, but not entirely accurate, the bullet diameter is similar, but the casing size on the 30-06 is much larger and able to hold much more powered, thus giving a much higher muzzle energy. So it should do even more damage. But it also depends on the type of bullet used. FMJ vs jacked hole point vs plain soft lead.
Really kept his head down for a few days first huh?
He said that if such interference were really happening and conservatives were supporting such behavior they were “crazy” because eventually they themselves would be the target of such censorship
What's really wild is that his biggest concern is that the people doing the fascist thing could become the target of it later. There's no dawning of 'oh maybe the people doing this aren't so good' no, he's worried that the other people who have been warning that they are fascists might pursue them later with the fascist precedent they are putting in place.
You.. you made the crazy Joe.
also if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend this: How Comedy Was Destroyed by an Anti-Reality Doomsday Cult
That doc is a masterpiece.
Hell yeah.
fuck this grift. this dude did more propoganda minutes for Maga than Charlie did, he doesn't give af about free speech beyond crying about how "censored" he is into the world's largest microphone
"Oh no! The fascists I supported are being fascists!"
Too little too late, Joe.
Womp womp
The most useful of idiots.
Joe faces the same issue that Tucker does.
Both have substantial influence, and in Tucker's case substantial wealth.
Given this, I'll borrow a term from the Right to spell it out: We need more than virtue signaling.
Substantial harm requires something more than some face-turn tease.
As a thought experiment, put aside the well deserved hate you might have for Joe, and think about what harm he could inflict on the cult, if he got it in his head to do so.
Rogan is valued at $250M, 5X Fuckhead Carlson.
And not long ago, he will made a living forcing people to eat bugs.
Forcing is a little strong of a word there. Even he later said, and probably helped a few folks realize how shit america is, that it was horrible what people would do for the prize money.
Besides, eating bugs isn't a terrible thing. I'd be more concerned about the elk penises, honestly.
Rogan has made inexplicable wealth from his show.
No shit, Toe Rogaine, really?
