[@pieshka4509]

You can plot a trajectory to him becoming more center left after the Bernie primary when he won California after Joe's endorsement and suddenly CNN smeared Bernie's supporters as the highly misogynistic and bigoted "Bernie-bros". Even after supporting Yang and his UBI proposal, suddenly supporting Yang got you a similar smear to Bernie-bro but with more farright connotations. I still remember a livestream between democrat centrists that supported Yang vs a leftist and his eyes lighting up with an impending far right smear when they said they supported Yang in the primary

As long as they keep behaving the way they do, and keep pushing rationality and civility as far from themselves as they can, they'll never get 'their own Joe Rogan'.

[@Trojance]

Can't be having a cheap readily available medication threatening the profitability margins of the vaccines they just invested in!

[@Cheesus-Sliced]

It was no longer recommended because it was no longer profitable. The patent ran out before 2010 as well, but during covid pharmaceutical companies would have prioritised profit from their ineffective, patented, antiviral medications and effective painkillers, accepting the public as collateral for that profit. The simple explanation for ivermectin is it functions as a protease inhibitor which prevents cells from replicating at least one protein essential for covid, meaning the absolute *minimum* effect it has is a reduction of viral load.

[@littlewigglemonster7691]

Theo von has followed his footsteps, and taken that road as well, and is killing it. I just listened to one the other day for two hrs about a cat lady. Its so good

[@noobkaka567]

Most of the times he doesn't have experts on, most of the time it's grifters, or people who are adamant that they are right when they are in fact wrong, it leads to sometimes mind blowing funny episodes - where I'm not sure if Joe Rogan believes them or not, but Joe doesn't interrupt them and let's them rabble on which I think is fine and in fact a admirable trait in Joe. Let the crazy people talk, viewers can dissect what they are saying themselves.

[@nickmajora]

@@noobkaka567 Case in point - Terrence Howard. And then the follow up episode with him and Eric Weinstein.

[@PineappleBaconPizza]

10:59 Joe Rogan didn't get radicalized, and he still supports Bernie Sanders and his ideas. He just saw how much the media liked to lie, and he believed the msm on what they said about Trump. Over the years, he slowly started to think he wasn't nearly as bad as they said he was. Joe Rogan is still way more on the left and supports basically all of the major ideas of Bernie Sanders, and he liked Andrew Yang to this day.

[@neonxraven99]

He is just a guy that chooses logic i respect him

[@christianalanwilson434]

We live in a time where being moderate gets you labelled as "a dangerous radical" by extremists on both sides. Its loony tunes.

[@Dra1n__TV]

Asmon on Rogan when?

Would be nice

14:15 that's literally the definition of Misinformation.

I never heard of you before the ban, then I watched your apology video and subbed instantly. Seeing a influencer actually own their mistake was so refreshing and I'm subbed to you for the rest of my/your time on KZbin!

Hollywood ended up just like legacy media. A bald guy in his basement in Texas is bigger and has more pull than everyone in Hollywood. How the mighty have fallen

[@CommanderShepard-wq3wo]

23:24 This situation is just like that meme. Of a guy riding a bike, then sticking a stick in his own wheels causing him to fall and hurt his knee, then blaming it on someone else. In this case, Joe Rogan

Anything that wasn't promoting an intersectional cultist view of the world got labeled as 'far-right'.

"Scientology was less zealous that the covid narrative" - Asmon

[@antonyouten5447]

It's facts. Imaging injecting yourselves with a new tech that's now been peer reviewed to show it was dangerous. While also thinking being in an open store, but a piece of plexiglass would save you. Or believing ivermectin was dangerous. Or believing 2020 was free and fair.

Truth

[@vryc]

Once journalism started to become an "elite" institution, solely populated by people with degrees and as a pipeline for elite status-seeking, it lost the one condition it had retained for decades: honesty. There was a matter-of-factness about journalism. It had its dark times before WW2, but somehow, for about a 35 year period, it managed to attract ethically responsible people, people that were primarily interested in Truth. Most likely because many of these 35-year time frame journalists had lived through and fought in WW2, which imparts a harsh but true perspective not easily discarded. But universities no longer select for Truth-seeking as a good unto itself, and are instead simply a mechanism to distribute the accepted ideas and ideals of elite society. These 35-year journalists left a legacy and mentored many younger journalists, and for a time, this imprinted mentorship which regarded Truth as a paramount virtue in journalism, continued to shape these newer journalists within the media institutions. But over time, this was either diluted or lost as a new breed of elite-centric journalist took centerstage. Once this takeover was complete in the early 2010s, objectivity and honesty were stripped away for profit and a no-holds-bard tribal affiliation. Legacy media was now only interested as an elite-seeking signaling device, nothing more.

The kicker is that Joe rogans first child is black, people often forget.

[@JohnRhinoTheThird]

I’ve been a gigafan of Joe ever since he played Joe Garrelli on NewsRadio. I guess you could say I know how to pick 'em. Some people are just born with this incredible gift to know what’s good in life and some aren’t. I’m just thankful to be one of those exceptional people 'in the know'. 😏

[@JJJJJVVVVVLLLLL]

that’s pretty far back

@@JJJJJVVVVVLLLLL Correct. I don’t mean to brag, but I’ve been 'in the know' for a very long time (probably since birth). I’m just one of those people who gets it.

Friendly reminder that the host of Fear Factor and the host of the Apprentice did a podcast and changed the course of US history.

Saying that Joe Rogan is "radicalized" is ridiculous. What does JR do thats remotely politically radical?

[@dailysaga]

Well, he did support Bernie Sanders who is a Marxist

[@Bnewton00]

Why does the "Expert" called to discuss the drug look like the asian dude in Dark Knight on the Tv.

[@mainscape6619]

journalism used to have codes and ethics if I remember correctly. Don't know when they abandon it.

[@christianalanwilson434]

About ten years ago I think, when the decline of legacy media really started to hit.

[@Users_rx]

Since barry obummer took office

[@paulcarmi8130]

Iirc in the late 80s or 90s there was some TV clause requiring news orgs to only deal in objectivity and then when that "expired" it slid further and further down. I've seen it in more than a couple comments and videos and should've remembered it..

[@DarkeningDemise]

Everything the MSM accuses others of they're guilty of themselves. Much like MSM gaming outlets such as IGN, Polygon, Kotaku, PC Gamer, etc.

I wish I know Joe Rogan sooner and might have not taken the vaccine. The entire promote was had so many shortcuts and money involves

[@Sly_404]

Rogan and similar influencial creators could take over because the mainstream media decided not to serve the public anymore. It's that simple. If your product doesn't appeal to the audience, they will go elsewhere.

[@urphakeandgey6308]

What upsets me most is how a lot of liberals liked Joe Rogan talking about random conspiracies... Until Joe started having opinions they didn't like. Now it's a bad thing. His show has always been off the rails.

[@squiggs1002]

yah a lot calling him alt right, far right now. I am like really? he supported bernie sanders in 2020 and he is doing the exact same show that he always does.

[@mddell58]

~~~ Two years after his show 'Reliable Sources' was canceled by CNN, Brian Stelter is rejoining the media network. “I'm returning to CNN in a brand new role as Chief Media Analyst,” the reporter announced in an edition of the network's Reliable Sources newsletter on Tuesday.

5:48 - I mean. This guy named Asmongold is solo beating the 5h1t out of twitch. Literally.

[@MikeG.666]

They put the filter on Rogan. Ive never seen a more profound example of boomers trying to taint the system with photoshop to explain to the masses that this is a thing... where literally everyone else said "Nah, you guys did this to the footage, this isnt actually real." Kudos to the entire world for calling them out.

I lost trust in all corporations when Google removed the video search function after the top 10 videos would constantly be conspiracy theory movies. They couldn't get rid of them so they just got rid of the video search function completely...
