Joe Rogan was always very left-leaning. Used to listen to the podcast a lot in the early days, was a regular on his forum for almost ten years. I don't listen much any more, but as far as I can tell his opinions haven't changed.

The political spectrum has changed a lot. Supporting free speech and opposing proxy wars suddenly makes you a conservative, for example. Those same things made you an annoying liberal 20 years ago...

Edit: Joe had a Carl Sagan quote in his signature on the forum. I just had a funny thought that Sagan had a lot of views that would have modern liberals attacking him.

"Education on the value of free speech and the other freedoms reserved by the Bill of Rights, about what happens when you don't have them, and about how to exercise and protect them, should be an essential prerequisite for being an American citizen — or indeed a citizen of any nation, the more so to the degree that such rights remain unprotected." -Carl Sagan(modern conservative)

Heh


my brother, joe rogan has never in his life, ever, been "very left leaning"

you also tattled on yourself. you admitted you dont listen much anymore then go on to say his opinions havent changed. take a gander at any episode of his before the spotify deal, then listen to any of them from the last 6 months. then post again about how he hasnt changed at all :rofl:

Dems are completely lost

Turns out you cannot appease corporate backers and your constituents simultaneously

Who would have thought

The political climate has changed a lot. Only a few decades ago in 1977 it was the democrats of ACLU who were supporting free speech to give nazis space to demonstrate. Now it's the republicans who advocate free speech. The current-day democrats seem to want more controlled speech. I can see both having positives and negatives.

My opinion is I would prefer free speech as long as there's no violent actions or harm to persons or property, no matter what is being said.

I think it's an interesting change in the political climate none the less.

Yeah, I don't listen much any more but I do still catch an episode once in a while, have probably watched 2-3 in the past six months and I didn't see any new political opinions in them.

I'm willing to agree with you if you can give me examples of political opinions he's flipped on. You have to provide the specific examples though, you can't just tell me to go watch a three hour podcast without even telling me which one...

this video is 11 minutes and touches on the values related changes. i am all for people changing their minds because people grow up and life happens but Rogan has done complete 180s on a LOT of his beliefs. i used to watch his videos and still watch if he has an interesting guest but hes a full-on right winger now, through and through

Are there any critiques of Joe Rogan that aren't from women or gay men (like this video)? The most persuasive argument on why the left hates him is that he is masculine, and this only bolsters that argument

That entire video fails to provide a single example of Joe Rogan switching a specific political view--just like you have failed to do. Every sound clip of Rogan in that video is saying the same sorts of things, promoting the same left-leaning ideas. Where are the examples of him saying the opposite?

It should also be noted that you claimed that he was "never" very left leaning, and then posted a video of him stating a bunch of very left-leaning political views. Do you have a definition of "never" that I haven't seen er what?

I mean that Rogan won't have on a guest who disagrees with his anti-Ukraine position. He's a coward. I don't know how Rogan's ability to beat my ass has anything to do with this... I think you're getting emotional.


Again, he has offered to have many guests who are pro-Ukraine on. They refuse to join his show. It's not Joe's fault that he's merely a liberal, and unwilling to bend the knee to marxists demands that would change the entire format of his show to appease an America-hating cult. :)

LOL! Bernie Bro Rogan was never "liberal". Sad how anything to the right of Stalin or Mao is now "conservative" to you cultists. And you wonder how Trump won the EC in a landslide, AND the popular vote. Man, when will you grow up? :rolleyes:
