For anyone not following things like elephant graveyard on YouTube, this shit is a face saving attempt for them.

Both him and Duncan Trussel are getting hammered by parts of their audiences for not only full throated support of Trump, but actually using their platforms to boost the shit. Same with Theo Von and a few of these other fucking clowns.

Duncan Trussel is famously the person in a space suit telling Rogan people are going to manipulate and use him. This shit is clownshoes.

Theo vons last few weeks ,hes look so pathetic trying to act like right wing machismo man. im surprised he wasnt invited to ridayah comedy festival. before the pandemic, i first found theo von on asian poc yt channel of failed "comedians' now turned maga, he was definitely more humble then. although i felt he also is a trashy person.

They all assumed immigrants were 98% dangerous street criminals, 2% hardworking field and hotel workers, which is the observable part for them. They never considered it's the observable part because they're the backbone of several industries.

I hope Joe is held accountable in the trials to come as well.

[–] plyth@feddit.org 3 points 14 hours ago

He has the platform to change public opinion. If he only acknowledges the deportations then he is signalling to his audience that that's the limit to which it should concern them.

In that sense this is support for the politics, not opposition.

Oh Joey-jo-Joe... that was never what it was about.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 10 points 20 hours ago

If any MAGA listening to this asshat are getting the message, this is good news.

My idiot neighbors are cheering on ICE for "rounding up the criminals".

[–] stardust@lemmy.ca 9 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

No he didn't. He just says this kind of stuff to seem impartial but continues to push the same right wing agenda to his cult followers.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 15 hours ago

hes trying to look "neutral" so he doesnt get flak from his fans, or ditch him for someone else.

[–] arin@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago

All a facade to take power and go full Nazi

[–] Tronn4@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago

He should start talking at colleges

[–] Montreal_Metro@lemmy.ca 8 points 21 hours ago

He a fucking dumb ass nazi simp

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 6 points 20 hours ago

The unfortunate part is this might be the only time Trump supporters hear they aren't. Wonder if that means they abandon Rogan.

[–] Yawweee877h444@lemmy.world 7 points 21 hours ago

You thought that, because you're stupid, Joe.

Because you're stupid.

[–] TuffNutzes@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

So I guess Joe Rogan really is as stupid as I thought he was. And here I was thinking he was just being a vindictive prick.
Dummy meathead certainly looks the part.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 6 points 21 hours ago

Joe Rogan is so god damned stupid I’m surprised he can drink from the right end of a glass.
