They're either going to hitch their wagon to a literal-who Millennial dork or they're gonna go down the industry plant path and we're going to see a complete NPC-tier nobody come out of the woodwork. Well it's either get a somebody or prop up a nobody. I guess the problem is that implementing a comedic figure from the top down is pretty much always going to be cringier than grassroots comedy. Jon Stewart wasn't in a much different position than Joe Rogan 20 years ago in terms of cultural influence. If you want to be crude, you have a better chance catering to a right-wing audience currently. Thing is, the party can't do much anything about this. It's a cultural thing.

Antifar 05/20/25 5:38:02 PM #17:	The thing is that Joe Rogan isn't the right wing Joe Rogan. He has right wing views, but what lends credibility to those views among his listeners and viewers is that he doesn't treat his show as a political project. He has guests or conversations that they're interested in and then happens to spout right wing ideas along the way. Any effort by the Democratic Party to push a podcaster or media figure will result in that figure not being trusted by the sorts of people who take Rogan seriously.

Westernwolf4 05/20/25 5:39:44 PM #18:	[LFAQs-redacted-quote] This. I am actually surprised (respectfully) at the negative reaction to this so far in the thread. This may not be the way to do it, but Democrats absolutely have to investigate new ways to get our message out. Republicans winning the online and podcast spaces is a big reason we lost. The fact that Democrats are recognizing that town halls on network TV arent going to cut it is a good thing. MAGA only exists because while Fox and Rush were being propaganda machines for decades, the Democrats only put up token resistance (Air America Radio) and otherwise just threw up its hands and developed no real apparatus of its own. Of course we dont want a Dem. Joe Rogan or to become like the GOP. But we do want new ways for progressive messaging to be in these spaces. We will lose every time if we dont find new ways to reach the electorate. Democrats should be exploring every reasonable option to do that. --- An opinion does not turn into a fact simply because the person holding it feels strongly about it. <cite>Westernwolf4 posted [p:985132858] in Democrats ...

It's because "left leaning" and "leftist" have utterly nothing to do with each other. Hence why I have always stuck with the philosophy that left versus right wing refers to something that changes based on the country, but left versus right is not. Silicon Valley is left wing, but they are mid-right when it comes to any and all politics. Thus when you have a person who is on the political left they will have utterly nothing in common with them on essentially anything relating to policy.

LightHawKnight 05/20/25 7:13:57 PM #48:	Antifar posted... I'm all on board with the Democratic Party funding its own media, and I've suggested that in the past. It's the fixation on finding a Rogan-like figure where I think these people miss the point. The party can't be Joe Rogan. But they could be Fox News, and that's just as important. Is that even possible? The whole point of fox is that it leverages low information voters and gets them angry. The ones that dont eat that up wont fall for it and the ones that do already fall for fox. --- The Official Odin of the Shin Megami Tensei IV board.

When Harris's people were trying to arrange something with him, he kept shifting the goalposts to prevent it. He wouldn't allow Zelenskyy on. The man is a Trumper, utterly and completely. He's also openly platforming holocaust deniers now.
