How much exactly do you think Joe Rogan knows about the government of Canada? Pretty sure it's around fuck all. He's just a propagandist for the fascist regime at this point.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 140 points 3 days ago (5 children)

What's crazy is how outright pro-Trump pilled the Canadian right was until about three months ago when Trump took office. You had the Conservative party outright bragging about being Pro-Trump, Trudeau floundering in the polls because of his criticisms of the Trump leadership team, and big oil-exporting states absolutely glowing at the prospect of a climate denialist government joining hands with them in the next election.

Then Trump took office and started threatening sanctions, he started accusing Canadians of exporting fentanyl, and he started making vague threats aimed at Canadian territory. Public sentiment turned on a dime. The Conservative Party crashed in the polls. Trudeau's liberals surged. Canadian media and politics turned incredibly hostile towards anyone Trump affiliated.

And now guys like Rogan are just catching strays for being Trump adjacent. He doesn't know anything about Canada. He just knows his (increasingly former) Canadian base is suddenly calling him all the slurs they'd historically reserved for his left-wing guests.

Joe Rogan became convinced Trudeau was a dictator because of COVID restrictions.

Like they say aboht him, knowledge a mile wide, and only an inch deep. He has been defending women beaters, rapists and anti intellectualism before he became an actual tool of the new regime.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 30 points 3 days ago

A mile wide my ass, fucker had an empty head even before he started farming concussions.

Whatever Fox News tells him about Canada is what he "knows" about Canada.

Has been for a while. Rogan is a piece of shit.

[–] WheelerSelanne@lemmy.ca 24 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Most of it will come from Jordan Peterson with his twisted, drug addled take. I think it goes back to his News Radio days from Dave Foley's horror stories about his divorce however many decades ago that was. You just know Rogan's wife is locked into an iron clad contract. Don't nobody mess with Joe's roll.

[–] el_muerte@lemm.ee 24 points 3 days ago

Definitely got it from Peterson. Rogan has called Canada "communist" and claimed that people are being imprisoned here for posting criticism of "wokeness" on the Internet. Both of those claims echo Peterson's idiocy, but the second one in particular is pretty much guaranteed to be straight from his mouth as it's the exact "compelled speech" bullshit that earned him much of his early notoriety and, as far as I know, hasn't really picked up traction with other alt-reich talking heads.

Joe Rogan Experience in a nutshell:

Guest: batshit insane shit

Rogan: uh huh, oh wow, that's crazy, never thought of it like that

Rogan: also like, here's my thoughts bro (insert popular opinion here)

Guest: continues batshit insane shit that contradicts that expressed opinion

Rogan: I totally agree.

[–] uienia@lemmy.world 48 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Don't forget

Morons: Rogan is not a right wing propagandist, he has guests from all over the political spectrum.

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 48 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Seriously man, I hate hearing: But He's had Bernie on!!

yes, a left-winger on a handful of times and basically inundated with right-wing propaganda on the other hand.

That's like saying Fox News isn't right-wing propaganda because they've had Jon Stewart and Michael Moore on.

Please please go to russia... maybe they'll send him to the front and he can compost with some sunflower seeds.

I'm wondering if his temporary work visa was denied, and he's trying to spin it to look like it's his idea.

Rogan is such a little cuck. I bet he dreams about getting tag teamed by Donald and Elon. He wants those orange fat rolls and Donald’s diaper / shit / talcum-powder smelling flaccid cock ramming him in the face while Elon grinds into him from behind with his cybertruck body and broken, malfunctioning penis.

Americans in general are such cowardly little bootlickers. They show off their big trucks and guns and pretend to be baddy “alpha males” then they get on the knees for Israel and Russia or any kind of genocidal regime that shows themselves to be in same league of sadism, decadence, and buffoonery.

You think Russia has a better government than Canada? What in the living fuck?

He knows where he's getting his bread from. Don't go to Canada. As a matter of fact, stay out of everyone's way and do the world a favour. Cunt.

Keeping Joe Rogan out? Probably the best campaign ad the Liberals have right now.

Joe was gonna get booed so he decided to take his things and go home. Weak men can't handle criticism.

Somehow, Canada will find a way to go on without him.

In other news, Joe Rogan wants more undeserved attention.

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 30 points 3 days ago

Go to Russia. All MAGAts should go there for a mandatory visit since they live the country so much.

[–] Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world 28 points 3 days ago

Of course he would. He's an asset, functionally if not actually (yet).

Joe Rogan is a scumbag and an idiot but he is useful in that if I find out someone listens to him I know they're a moron.

[–] HonoredMule@lemmy.ca 25 points 3 days ago

It's actually really handy when right-wing influencers tell Canadians not to listen to them.

[–] Rooskie91@discuss.online 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I would also prefer if he went to Russia.

Why do foreigners hate our government for its domestic policy so much?

I don’t like the monarchy in UK but I don’t constantly spend energy hating on them, nor would it realistically stop me from visiting.

I guess it’s a hate boner thing.

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 28 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It's not all foreigners. It's right-wing Americans. And if they didn't keep hating it, they'd have to admit that Canada is better governed than the USA in many respects. It's a challenge to their belief that they and their far-right dysfunction are the pinnacle of human existence.

I don't give a shit about UFC, or Joe Rogan.

[–] TommySoda@lemmy.world 22 points 3 days ago

Less than a week after he said "Why are we upset at Canada? This is so stupid."

Either he's incredibly dumb (highly likely) or someone paid him to say that (also highly likely)
