Right-wingers on X are not impressed that the popular podcaster is throwing his weight behind RFK Jr.

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

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

        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.

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

              Silicon. But Yeah, that’s the joke.

              Unless you are talking about sentient fake tits?

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

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

          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.

        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.

          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.

          unrelated, you should read the short story “they’re made out of meat” by Terry Bisson.

          it’s about aliens trying to figure out humans.

        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.
