Joe Rogan finally has done something useful by pissing off stupid people.

[-] minibyte@sh.itjust.works 196 points 3 months ago

– and splitting the vote. That’ll do.

[-] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 76 points 3 months ago

Does anyone really take Rogan seriously enough to follow his endorsement? Enough people to make a dent?

[-] minibyte@sh.itjust.works 117 points 3 months ago

4.8M views on a video posted 9 days ago. So, yeah – probably.

[-] MeatStiq@lemmy.world 71 points 3 months ago

At one point the dude had 90,000,000 listeners. That's about 1/3rd of the country.

Granted, they're not all US based.

Some of them are silicone based

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

*Silicon. Silicon is a crystal and silicone is a kind of rubber.

[-] Impound4017@sh.itjust.works 16 points 3 months ago

Heartbreaking. My silicone dildo gained sentience and now supports Trump 😔

[-] aniki 6 points 3 months ago

It just wants to be fucked, so it makes sense.

"Silicone parts are made for toys!" - Sir Mix-a-lot, poet

[-] elbarto777@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Silicon. But Yeah, that's the joke.

Unless you are talking about sentient fake tits?

[-] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 months ago

Sentient lip and ass injections too. All body dysmorphia matters.

[-] gibmiser@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago

Those semi-sentient molds...

[-] RattlerSix@lemmy.world 59 points 3 months ago

These are the people that are deeply concerned about the sexuality of M&Ms, they take every-fucking-thing seriously

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

These are the people that are deeply concerned about the sexuality of M&Ms

That's...kinda weird.

Like, yeah, the green one is canonically trans. And sure, some people refer to their HRT as "Fem&M's", but most people don't obsess over it like they do.

[-] Phenomephrene@thebrainbin.org 29 points 3 months ago

Honestly, Joe Rogan can get people to believe some pretty weird stuff. For example, I believe the inside of his skull may just be packed with meat. Like, an actual pulsing node of meat. I know it sounds crazy, but if it were to be true for anyone it'd be him.

[-] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Imagine that, sentient meat. I wonder what would happen if you gave a Hickory Farms summer sausage some DMT. Can sausages do DMT? Jamie, pull that up.

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 7 points 3 months ago

Joe Rogan P-zombie confirmed 😳

[-] LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Eh maybe. To many conservative men, he's savvy enough to make them feel edgy while still having ideas and thoughts that are mentally accessible to them. Basically, he's saying Trump is old news, and most people looking at Trump can see he is old news.

[-] adarza@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago

who paid him and how much to do it?

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 23 points 3 months ago

I wonder what finally pushed him to do this. Was it leaving a bear cub in Central Park that clinched it?

[-] chalupapocalypse@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

I dunno, he's probably mad he didn't eat it

[-] Crikeste@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago

To be fair, I’m sure a ton of stupid people were really happy about this as well.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 months ago

He backpedaled so fast. Mr. Rogan also has to take testosterone.

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!
