In reply to the discussion: Question about Joe Rogan [View all]LetMyPeopleVote
(161,888 posts)28. Do you ever tire of being WRONG?
Thank you for the laughs. None of your links support any sort of argument that makes sense with respect to the fact that Joe Rogan and his audience/supporters are all racists. In law school and debate there is a concept called relevance which means that a cited fact needs to make the argument being advanced more likely of being correct. None of your cites are relevant and I am not sure what you are trying to prove.
My statement is rather simple. Only racists and idiots follow Joe Rogan. The idiots in the Charlottesville protects fit the profile of typical TFG/Rogan supporters. Look even Rogan is guilty of the concept of projection (this is a term that you should look up) when Rogan made this observation about TFG supporters:

Not all racists follow Rogan but all of Rogan's supporters/fans are clearly racists. Again, Rogan was projecting his sins onto TFG which is really very amusing
I do not have Spotify nor do I follow Joe Rogan. I was totally confused why Sanders tried to get this racist's endorsement and why Sanders thought that the endorsement of this racist would help him in the Democratic primaries. The key block of voters who supported Joe Biden were African American voters and white moderates. Neither group follow Rogan nor cared about Rogan's quasi endorsement of Sanders.
Once Joe got out of 90+% white states, the primary contest was over. This video which begins with some observations from some of the founders of Our Revolution/Justice Democrats and Sanders supporters still makes me smile

The endorsement or quasi endorsement of a racist like Joe Rogan was of no help to Sanders when the real base of the party got to vote.
As for the real argument, it is clear that Rogan is a racist idiot and and it also clear that Rogan's audience is composed of racist idiots. Here is a good example, this video shows who Rogan is

I stopped watching The Daily Show a while back, but I did appreciate how Tevor Noah dealt with Rogan

Again, while not all racists are Rogan fans but all of Rogan's fans are racists.
I really enjoyed laughing at the material that you posted. Such material did not help your argument but did provide some amusement. Again, there is a concept in both debate and the law of relevance and none of the facts you posted was relevant to the concept of whether Joe Rogan and his fans are racists.
I was a day one contributor to Joe and got to meet Joe at two different fundraisers at two homes of attorneys. I had maxed out to Joe in early 2019 and worked on his voter protection efforts. I am pleased to see that Lawyers for Biden has been folded into the DNC. Joe Biden supporters are not fans of Rogan. I note that Rogan supported and endorsed TFG and was never going to support Sanders in a general election contest. Rogan and his fans are typical TFG supporters, i.e., racist idiots.
You are welcome to defend Rogan and his audience. I amused by the number of people unsubscribing to the service that picked Rogan over sane persons

If you have any facts that support the position that Rogan and his audience are not racist idiots, please provide such facts.

No I'm (as usual) NOT wrong. There is zero proof behind that absolute ('every single one') statement

The only "followers" that are not racists are most likely those who want to keep an eye on him....
