Joe Rogan Cancels the Cancelers

LOL. Why would I ever watch the Joe Rogan Experience? My manhood isn't in question and I don't get my advice from people who say over and over again they are dumb.

Once in a blue moon I've seen a clip of his and checked it out - almost every time I've found out that the information was at best misinformed. He generates outrage for views. Someone at Spotify was silly enough to give him a lot of money for it. Same old, same old.

"He was misinformed by a friend of his".

See, if I were presenting information that might be controversial or contentious to a very large audience of easily triggered manbabies, I might actually - y'know - bother to check that my source wasn't full of shit.

And surely he wouldn't be lying about that...

Yeah, but where's the fun in that?

The episode with Dr. Phil reveals the good doctor to be a right-wing ideologue who thinks lazy welfare recipients are the root of all societal problems. (Maybe it was already known, but I never watched his show, save the clip with the "cash me outside" girl.) Yet he claims to be apolitical. That was cringe.

Oh, his wife is MTG level crazy, and he had her on the show spouting Jesus shit, and hid behind her as a shield.
Y'know, like "what? Me? No, that's my wife's opinions. ".
Yeah, right, Phil.

What's MTG?

Marjorie Taylor Green.

She’s got a whole thread dedicated to her stupidity.

Yes, the critics need to respect that a "lie" categorically involves intent.

Still, it's pretty irresponsible of Rogan to be peddling this nonsense, especially in the context of a conversation with a high-profile former member of Congress.

So, anybody want to guess what Rogan was saying before the election on who would win? Go on, guess.

I don’t have to guess, I watched the episode.

Madison Triangle Garden.

Time well spent.

Rogan supports Graham Hancock as he airs speculative archeology on Netflix.

An archeologist has some thoughts on this. https://twitter.com/FlintDibble/status/1591863566273073154?s=20&t=VsspOhs2ZZ1On7CBwHe-hg

Eye roll right off the bat.

Maybe Hancock is a crank, and maybe he aint. But starting your rebuttal with your own woke nonsense is a no go.

Except there’s documentation to back that up. He even links to it in the thread.

Yep, Atlantis has been Wakanda for pointy-hat & armband types going back to Madame Blavatsky.
This is a thing that's known.

Matter of fact, the racism in Atlantean myths is parodied in "The Book Of The Sub-Genius" which is a parody religion started in the 70's.
Atlanteans, flying saucers, bigfoot, they moosh it all in there.
You have to know the real stuff to do the parody.
They've got illustrations of non-sub-genii as cavemen, and Atlantian-descended-sub-genii as blonde Flash Gordon looking guys with lantern jaws.
They lifted that shit right out of the real versions.
Conspiracy crackpot shit is LOADED with racism.
The further back you go, the more mask-off it gets.

The further back you go on anything the more racism you get. Racism is just tribalism writ large, with the same types of bullshit mythology.

My 23 and me analysis shows I am so white I come from atlantis. It is really funny because I never sent them a DNA sample, but they did look at a video of me dancing. Yeah, I am only allowed to do drag shows as elain from seinfeld. For the anime fans, I did dress up as Haruhi Suzamia and accidentally destroyed a few universes when the fanbois insisted I try to do the opening theme dance. (I am almost not kidding on that one)

So Namor,the feathered serpent god who was originally depicted as a white guy in Kirby’s run isn’t racist or are we talking about real Greek mytholog?

I always thought he looked more Asian in Kirby's work...
Also fairly sure there's no Namor in Plato...

I think D is referring to the new agey/Mdm. Blavatsky, and its whole quest for the universal white, err, light thing.

Why does any of this matter if Atlantis never existed? Krypton is depicted as all white culture, does that make Superman lore racist?

you're the one who asked... also: "feathered serpent god"?

Quetzalcotal. Isn't that basically what Marvel is basing Namor off of now?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quetzalcoatl

There aren't white supremacists running around going "let's all go to Krypton! You know....Krypton...".
Atlantis is still a thing for some racist kooks.

Yeah and I'm sure there are still people who think the Smurfs are satanic, so what?
