Joe Rogan defends Ye’s ‘Heil Hitler’ song
“It kind of supports what he says, which is that there’s this concerted effort, if you talk about Jewish people, that they’re going to remove you from everything,” Rogan said.
Nazi defends fellow Nazi
Fixed that headline for ya
He's a POS, has been for a long time. I am surprised that he's saying it out loud. Being a Nazi isn't great for your brand. Just ask Elon.
Elon’s problem was that his audience weren’t Nazis
That guy from Fear Factor doesn’t have such weaknesses
Remove you from banking. They run everything
What the fuck?
My understanding is Ye/his guardians have not paid his taxes, so the IRS froze his bank account. Ye thinks the bank and some imagined Jewish oversight force took away his bank account.
Ye is crazy, Rogan is an ass, and we'd all be better off denying both of these fucks the attention they crave.
I came here to say the same thing.
“If you ban it, then people want to hear it more, and then it becomes more popular,"
Me: Yeah, banning things tends to make them more popular a lot of the time. Probably won't happen in this case but sure...
"...and then it kind of supports what he says, which is that there’s this concerted effort, if you talk about Jewish people, that they’re going to remove you from everything,”
No, that's not how that works... But Rogan is well-known to be pretty dumb (in addition to being ignorant). So maybe he's just confused.
“Remove you from banking, which is what he’s saying. They run everything.”
Nope! He's just a scumbag. All benefit of the doubt is gone with that statement.
We can all safely mark Rogan down as an actual Nazi now 👍
...and to those public figures who get accused of being a Nazi (like this) let me tell you something: The way to swing yourself out of it is to not just say, "I'm not a Nazi" or "You're stupid if you think I'm a Nazi." You say, "I fucking HATE Nazis!" (loudly and publicly). Then you point to other Nazis like Rogan and Ye and spell out, specifically why their beliefs are wrong. Then maybe make a huge, public donation to a pro-LGBTQ+ organization and say something like, "attacking minorities is wrong!", "Trans people are harmless! Leave them alone", and then later you can clarify your position with something like, "Genocide is wrong—and that's why I'm mad at Israel; not Jews, specifically."
The fact that this obvious public relations formula, which someone pretty crappy at heart could put on as a front, sounds like advice from an all-star agent right now...
You can't defend Palestine without repercussions, but being an actual, literal Nazi is ok, apparently.
Because the right are Nazis or at least Nazi fanboys
I admit, I view the over the top Nazi / "politically incorrect" actions as essentially showing off that regular 'rules' and norms don't apply to a certain 'class' of people, namely the rich. Once you're rich enough, you can openly accept gold-clad jets as bribes, and no one in the USA, or other countries, will stop you.
Commoners can't even make a slightly inappropriate comment on sites like Reddit without getting banned. Left leaning government officials are losing careers over the mere accusation that they may've done something inappropriate towards a minority / women. Places like Canada and the UK, have online hate speech laws that make certain discussions / opinions, expressed online, potential criminal acts punishable by jail time.
Then you have people like Ye, overtly praising hitler. You have Elon Musk, doing Nazi salutes and supporting fascist right-wing movements. And they do these things with general immunity from legal / govt repercussions. Because they're so rich, they don't have to worry about things like going to jail for being fans of hitler / fascist movements -- that's a poor person problem.
I'm extremely relieved to see assholes like this finally going mask-off. I mean, the idiots who always dug their heels in will continue to do so, but defending a nazi, and then saying nazi shit, makes it super easy to point to later on.
I propose an internet jail where ISP's can just disconnect morons like Joe Rogan and Ye into their own little worlds.
The problem with that is when they start disconnecting dissent against fascism.
Terrible idea
Kinda already there
This really isn't news.
"Well you see there's no way some people can be as stupid to assume this song is praising Hitler. That's just preposterous. I mean clearly the song is about Hitler's cousin who's name happened to be Kyle, and those two words just happened to rhyme. Crazy how people can just jump to such conclusions. If you believe something, you're going to see it."
Joe Rogan fell off man 🤣🤣🤣
The fucking hook is literally saying heil hitler
trying to look tough by roiding up looking a veiny thumb. even your own sub turned against you on reddit. im guessing old fans of ufc hate how magaty the sports has become.
Middle school edge lord comedy died with Andrew Dice Clay
Ayyyy!
If you read the article all he really says about the song itself is that it should not be banned because banning things simply gives them notoriety, which I agree with.
Yeah, banning the KKK just gives them notoriety. Sorry, but you have to be brain dead to buy into nonsense like this.
Kkk shouldn't be banned either, as long as they don't directly call for violence against anyone. Freedom of speech is there to protect speech that is unpopular. 20 years ago conservatives might have tried to ban transgender propaganda. LGBT propaganda is still banned in Russia, and many other places besides. You can't start picking and choosing acceptable speech- either you believe in free speech or you don't.
Of course he does
Later in the episode, the pair discussed West’s diamond-encrusted swastika necklace. Earlier this year, the rapper sold swastika T-shirts on his site.”
“You know a Jew sold him that,” said Rogan of the necklace, to which Segura responded “probably.”
Joke Rogan should be ignored.
Lol. That isn't surprising.
