Joe Rogan Praises ‘No-Nonsense’ Tucker Carlson, Predicts ‘He Could Win’ The Presidency in 2028
Joe Rogan thinks Tucker Carlson has what it takes to become president in 2028.
What a meathead asshole Rogan is. Tucker too.
You're viewing a single thread.
are we ready to admit that Joe Rogan is basically just a right wing podcaster now or are we going to continue this stupid dance of "no he's just a centrist telling it like it is"
A 'centrist telling it like it is' always ends up being a right wing asshole lying about their intentions.
It's just like all those conservatives that "left" the GOP because they don't want to be associated with Trump and called racists. The problem is, they still all vote pure Republican down the ticket and support regressive and racist policies, so did they really leave the GOP, or are they just arguing in bad faith?
And actually, I'd argue that they're making the problem worse, because that leaves the GOP primaries in the hands of the nut jobs that like the way the party is headed...
I think the 'enlightened centrist' is born when an adult takes an interest in politics for the first time. It's natural for someone ignorant to see the extremes as scary. The problem is that the right is better prepared to guide this neophyte into reactionary politics without ever challenging the "centrist" identity. Politics in conservative spaces are never "right", "reactionary", or "regressive", they're just common-sense ideas, that everybody knows, and totally make sense when you think about it. (There's also a huge helping of edge-lord humor to desensitize the centrist to ideals that would be appalling if people weren't "being ironic". )
So as they drift farther and farther to the right, the only people to challenge the "neutral" identity are on the left, who appear to be attacking a reasonable person; with mainstream ideals; just asking questions.
This is where the "I don't always agree with the right, but the left are a bunch of crazy jerks" mantra comes from.

"Just asking questions"
Politics aside, of the few times I've heard him speak, he doesn't seem too smart.
Watch his episode with Bernie or Cornell West. Every sentence blows Rogan's mind because he's so stupid and has never thought of an issue for more than 0.003 seconds before reaching a conclusion.
Agreed. And it's not a new thing, either.
Scratch a centrist and a fascist bleeds.
