RE: Joe Rogan Dethroned

in #politics12 days ago (edited)

As someone who observes from the outside and listens to little Rogan media, I think a lot of it has to do with Joe's growing disillusionment with the American left over the years. They guy still supports a lot of welfare and social services, for example, but the mainstream media and left-wing politicians absolutely threw him under the bus because they never liked his willingness to talk to absolutely anyone, and he wasn't in lockstep with the regime during COVID. I don't like people seeing the GOP as the solution to that, but in our polarized society, a lot think that of one is bad, the other is good by default.

Your reasoning is always refreshing to read. I'm going to call you the "back the balance guy". I think you are spot on.

That makes me sound like so much of a fence-sitter that my crotch hurts, LOL! I'm a radical libertarian, and if it sounds like I'm in the middle, it's because I denounce the left and right alike on how they pollute liberty with authoritarianism.

Nooo my brother.

Look, allow me to present to you a messenger, our spirit animal, if you will.

Yup. It's weird how trying to be a consistent advocate for freedom means the left calls me fascist while the right calls me a commie instead of either engaging with anything I actually write. Labels and dismissal are easier than thinking.

Tis the burden we've chosen
