Apparently COVID "red pilled" Joe Rogan.

From his latest standup, where he says he loves Texas because it is full of regular people:

Quote:

After COVID, I'm like, 'I don't think we went to the moon. I think Michelle Obama's got a (*****). I think Pizzagate is real. I think there's direct energy weapons in Antarctica.' I'm just kidding I don't think Michelle Obama's got a (*****), but I believe all of that other (expletive).
His special is called "Burn the boats." Probably a reference to him going full steam ahead against the woke mind virus, and finally picking a side, for good, against it.

This is good news, for a couple of reasons:

1) Joe Rogan's audience is larger than all MSM combined. He won the new media format space for adults.
2) Anyone with influence voicing distrust for institutions is a good thing right now. Most of them need to be torn down and either discarded or rebuilt.

I wouldn't say he's "red pilled" the same way a lot of people think of it. He's just a reasonable liberal. There is a reason he loves Austin, though.

We need to him combat all the lunatic swift fans. Between Elon, Rogan and people like Amber Rose, we need them all to get the message out.

Could a standup routine be....a standup routine?

Rogan wears his mind on his sleeve with his flavor of standup. His previous standup still showed true blue believer colors - despite conversing with Peterson and others. When you contrast them, this one shows his paradigm has been shifted significantly rightward. Still not a conservative, but openly friendly to them and with a paradigm that has far more overlap than before.

Huh, I thought before Biden got yanked he said he's still vote for him and vote for Kamala.

Maybe I'm wrong, but thought I saw that.

He's said for a long time now that he would vote for Trump over Biden. He hasn't said anything like that about Harris, but he's been pretty generous with his criticism of her.

I have a hard time calling him a "liberal" now...he is VERY conservative on a lot of things. 5-6 years ago? Sure...old school honest type liberal that you could actually have a reasonable conversation with (very rare).

He believes in well-intentioned social safety net type programs, but also acknowledges it's probably a pipe dream bc the government is corrupt and just sucks at running things. Guess you could say he's a liberal idealist on a few things...but that list has shrunk immensely in the last handful of years. He certainly despises the dems/libs more than the GOP/conservatives.

For a guy who was raised by left winged hippies, that's not too bad.

We don't need him to be. Not sure we WANT him to be, given the target demographics (and I loved Rush...even as a redpilled kid listening to him with my dad). He rails on liberals plenty...but we really want him to get young men (and some women who can stand his show) to learn to THINK...and QUESTION EVERYTHING.

He and Elon have very significant roles in helping shape the future by giving alternate sources of information and growing distrust in government and media.

You also don't want him to completely turn off the millions of dudes who aren't conservatives or libertarians...but may one day end up in those camps. He has converted countless liberal and CM Millennial and Gen Z males.

Podcasts in general are red pilling a lot of people. Once you get past sound bites and listen to a 2 hour discussion about a current topic, there's no other logical conclusion ther than the government is lying to you and this is all intentional.

THIS. Once you cause people to actually THINK LOGICALLY and QUESTION NARRATIVES...it frees the mind. This is the last thing the globalists, our government, and media apparatus want.

They would call millions of men/young men beginning to engage in these practices a "growing threat to democracy".

Won't happen. Liberals are a brainwashed cult and will simply turn on them, boycott them, and claim that the Elons and Rogans of the world have lost their minds.

Thank goodness. For all of Rush's good points, he rarely interacted in society or had long meaningful discussions to seek the truth. He loved him some endless foreign wars. Knowing what we know now about the CIA controlling media propaganda, I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that he was allowed to be on the air as long as he supported endless military spending

I think Rush would be a lot more red/black pilled on things like wars now if he were still around TBH. I am 43 and I was the same way not long ago...I know plenty of boomers who have changed their tune and recognized the err of their past ways...acknowledging they were solid patriots, who were just duped.

I don't know man...tons of young males have begun trending hard right. I would imagine the types mentioned above are helping, at least to some degree.

It's a comedy routine. That was the literal punchline of the joke. He makes fun of himself being known as a "conspiracy enthisiast" several times. Pretty sure he doesn't believe the moon landing was fake...he's just talking about how much many naturally distrust our government after being lied to and manipulated so much.

Question though...can you acknoweledge that some government conspiracies are very real...like federal agencies interfering in election to hurt Trump, MK Ultra being real, unsuspecting people being dosed with LSD by our CIA, project mockingbird, Tuskegee experiments, contra wars being funded by crack etc etc?

Do you think all of that is bogus? If you don't...congrats, you're a "conspiracy theorist" and an "idiot" to many. Welcome to the club.

its been very refreshing to see him use his voice for the good of the common man, instead of just always talking about DMT or pyschedelics all the time.

Joe Rogan stepped into the shoes of Art Bell after he died.

Rogan was an Art Bell listener and Art had him on the show at one time.

Amazing what happens when you have on a variety of guests and actually take the time to listen and talk through multiple points of view. The far left media talking points fall apart and even traditional liberals start to understand that the right is not evil and actually has some very down the middle and logical views with America's best interests at heart.

I disagree.

Not as good as other comedians, but not his best stuff. Not nearly as good as his last one. It was pretty clear to me that he was stoned out of his mind.

The first 5 min he seemed cracked out.

Overall wasn't very good or very conservative, but had a few soundbytes that will piss of the lefties.
