Imo, Joe Rogan is as dumb as shown in this thumbnail.
Idiots are fine and all, but people should definitely not be taking cues from them

fyi using stemio is very easy
I noticed him on my Netflix just now.
Thumbs downed the lot on principle. I ain't watching that shit.
...is he closeted gay? Gays who know about closeted gays, please enlighten me.
People who spend time thinking about other peopleβs sexualities are thinking about it for some reason. Like, who does that?

I agree that he wasn't that funny. But it was also really tame. I don't remember it being "gay sex obsessed". I don't understand why people care so much about him. He's really just extremely average.
He may be extremely average, but he's also one of the top podcast hosts and platforms a lot of harmful stuff. That's why people (who are against him) care. I don't know why people like him though.

Donβt give this guy space Lemmy wtf.
But where else are they going to get ear pleasure? There's so few options!
It's not a weird competition!
Everyone can be weird in their own way... just some should never be in charge of anything ever...
Using "weird" about a comedian actually risks the whole gambit IMO. You start calling everyone weird, maybe it's just you who is the unusual person calling everyone who disagrees with you weird.
The whole point of the attack is that the weird people are not acceptable elected officials. Keep it to people who are trying to get elected.
Imo it isn't great anyway. I'm fucking weird, and I've been working my whole life to turn "weird" into a good thing rather than something for 90s bullies to use to call you retarded (along with retarded itself). In 6mo "weird" is going to be synonymous with "nazi." Austin TX is gonna have to change their slogan lol.
Austin TX is gonna have to change their slogan lol.
They strangled the slogan to death with copyright enforcement over a decade ago. Austin hasn't been the tie-dye hippie blueberry in the tomato soup of Texas for a while. Its absolutely infested with techbro freaks and finance assholes now.
That's all well and good, but it's irrelevant if you understood that the crux of that particular joke is simply their slogan being "keep Austin weird." Not only have I never been to Austin (stone cold steve or otherwise), I've never even been to Texas. The geopolitics or demographics involved therein are of little consequence, assuming they have not already changed their slogan.
