Current Events > Russell Brand being full blown alt right is so bizarre.

(+) Yeah! (+)

He claims he's a libertarian, but he almost always slams on liberals. I get that there's a rotation on parties that get dunked on each term, but he's pretty sus about it and to me it comes off as borderline conservative. Not to mention he has a cult leader vibe to him.

Libertarians are Republicans that don't like the religious angle.

There was this chick on my facebook I was trying to bang for a while and I was able to ignore the tarot cards and the astrology stuff but when she started melting down over covid and how we just need nature to heal us I was done, lol

You say this like it's uncommon.

He's not alt right, he's a left wing anti-vaxxer. They do exist, not in the US but definitely here in Europe

They exist in the US, too. The "no harmful chemicals in my body" type tends to vote more left.

Some of the YouTube videos I occasionally get recommended seems like videos where he's anything but right wing. I haven't watched any of those videos but based on the thumbnails/video titles it seems like he's usually arguing against the right wing guests he brings on.

Why are you this hostile?

Yeah, they actually do exist in the US too. There's a fair amount of pretty far left home school parents who are anti-vax.

I blame Jenny Mcarthy & that debunked 'autism is caused by vaccines' theory.

You seem tense. Anything going on in your life to produce such turbulence or is it just pandemic madness? Either way you may wish to seek better ways of coping with stress or your heart's gonna explode before you hit 40

Don't bother with them, they'll be gone in a few days.

Is there really someone in this topic trying to claim Joe Rogan isn't alt right? The guy that keeps "just asking questions" along right wing talking points while laughing off or dismissing right wing criticisms? The guy that laughed off Trump, but constantly goes on about Joe Biden having dementia and how terrible he is? The guy that has frequent bad faith right wing talking heads just spout whatever they want while he goes "wow really? that's crazy..."? The guy that doesn't stop talking about how Portland is a BLM/Antifa smoking ruin? His entire vocabulary is nothing but right wing conspiracies he reads on Facebook.

If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a fucking duck.

I don't know about your first statement but he has clearly shown your thought on his intelligence is wrong

He's one of those guys who knows how to have like two intelligent conversations.

So you talk to him twice, think he's a pretty sharp dude.

Two more times, you think something's up.

Two more times, you understand this dude knows literally two things.

He's the intellectual version of the guy who has only two nice shirts.

Do you call everything that lines up with your own political beliefs 99% of the time alt right? Are you alt right?

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Can you form an argument or are you just a person who throws insults at someone else over disagreements?

His main beliefs seem to focus around how the wealthy/powerful prevent any changes to society that would threaten their wealth and power, and the changes they do promote are for the purpose of further enhancing and securing their wealth and power.

Doesnt exactly scream alt-right to me, but TC didnt exactly define their terms so maybe in their mind speaking out against the establishment is alt-right.

Joe Rogan is a lot of things, but alt right isn't it LOL

Many people who call him alt right around here are mocking those that genuinely think that is a reasonable label for him. I couldn't tell if that post was genuine or satire so I inquired.

If you personally think Joe Rogan being alt right is a reasonable take then maybe you shouldn't throw around that term so easily.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


LOL He has gotten dumber no doubt, but alt right?

That is still very much an insane position to hold. Joe is basically just an idiot who is easily influenced by the last person he spoke to.

This guy is right, man, he knows his facts. He's seen the one-liners taken out of context from 3 hour podcasts, he obviously knows more about JR than people who listen to him. JR is a druggie meathead that slammed on Trump the whole time he was in office, but he had Jordan Peterson on there so he's alt-right mega Nazi bigot.

So wouldn't that mean Joe could be considered alt right depending on his last guest?

So obviously this topic was made by a throw away account in order to drum up drama, but whatever. Heres his latest video.
