    I think about this everytime someone reference this buffoon.

    Joe Rogan is like some barbarian Khan from the steppes that took an interest in intellectual things and his podcast is basically him bringing slightly nervous scholars and magicians to come before him to explain how the world works

    “glasses man, you explain to Joe why sky big, and how tree grow” but he will also believe almost anything you tell him, and only recently (in the past few years) does he clap back like

    “Tiny hat man say otherwise, do you lie to Joe? tiny hat man say fat not bad for you, that sugar is enemy, so which is truth? Joe thinks you are wrong” and people just nervously go

    “oh-oh ok h-Haha yeah i guess so”

    “Joe spend many moons on horseback and training with bow and arrow, but Joe also wonder why skyfire rise from mountains every morning, you will explain this to Joe”

      I loved this greentext! That was back when people even had a shred of respect for the dude. People LIKED the dumb ass barbarian khan with questions. Way more than this free wheeling granola deepstate fuck

          And profited from it. Heinously. Really don’t think dude even believes anything, he’ll just do the “simple barbarian khan” act for whoever’s paying and then chimp out on anyone who tells him one of his spirit animals never existed

        Alt text on the image says “Knesset”, which I had to look up but apparently is “the parliament of modern Israel, established in 1949. It consists of 120 members elected every four years” according to Oxford dictionary.

          Kinda crazy how a few years ago you heard people shouting “it’s da joooz dude, da joooz are enabling the pedophelic elite!”

          And everyone on the left called them antisemitic conspiracy theorists.

          And now the left are doing it too lol

            Yeah kind of shows who was just hiding their power level. On one hand that comes with the territory of having an ethnostate but on the other, “leftist” people who are willing to conflate the state of Israel with an entire cluster of cultures wouldn’t never have said it out loud ten years ago. They must be pretty stoked to live under an admin who they feel gives them permission to do that now.
