Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Joe Rogan's existence lowers the quality of life for a significant number of people.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 2 years ago (2 children)

He is trying to fill the vacuum of space left by the outing of Alex Jones.

There's lots of money in it for him if he gets to that status.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

You need substance to fill a vaccum.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

He is our future Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

Need to get this stitched and on a wall.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I miss the days when he just tried to be Art Bell.

Kari Lake and all her adherents are cunts. Joe Rogan and every single one of his fans are cunts. This isn't rocket science.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

It's cunt science!

Joe “knuckle-dragger” Rogan and his political takes. He keeps in contact with Alex jones who openly brags about radicalizing him. Several episodes of the Knowledge Fight podcast have shown this.

Its amazing how much "fraud" they claim when they speak publicly yet they have nothing to say when they are under oath in a court room.

Do people still listen to Rogan?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He is popular with the type of crowd that thinks WWE is real.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wait, you mean the Undertaker really isn't a zombie?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Pfft, what are you, an idiot? Of course he's not a zombie.

He's a revenant.

Millions listened before Spotify, but they aren't helping.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Sadly he's the most listened to podcaster in the US according to some metrics.

who else is gonna stroke their egos for no reason

"I'm just asking questions!"

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, let's get our news and opinions from stand up comics. What could go wrong. Fuck experts. Next time I want medical advice I'll listen to a podcast.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

He was a worse comic than pundit

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago

Conservatives monetized lying to people and ginning up exploitable rage. Rogan just wants his share of the take.

The only “real fraud” in her election was Kari Lake.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

Joe Rogan is back acne in human form. Just like Alex Jones.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yawn. Wake me up when there is actual tangible provable evidence of voter fraud. You know, besides the 2 examples of voter fraud for Trump out of 160 million votes in the 2020 election.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

All the evidence is on the heisenberg laptop which we can know the evidence it contains OR know the location of, but never both factors at once.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

No all the missing votes are definitely on Hunter Biden's laptop

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

The real fraud is she got too many votes.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

We banned that bot site wide for those wondering wth that was.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Still seeing it on kbin

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Joe needs to lay off the drugs. You could hide a kayak under those bags around his eyes.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

And I’m sure Broprah is positively pissing himself with happiness as seemingly all GOP lapdogs are when praised by their handlers.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Rogan is a stochastic terrorist and enemy of people who value the rule of law, freedom and democracy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Worse. He’s a fucking selfish dick that’s willing to sell out the stability of democracy for a piece of paper.

Edit. Actually what you typed is worse. Agree that Rogan is a POS.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

100% with you

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity, but this is deep into stupid territory.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Apparently, fear… is not a factor for her. /s
