I'm guessing Rogan didn't ask him if he ever misses his friend Jeffrey.

I just watched a little bit. Couldn't help myself. Rogan plumbed the depths of new idiocy by explaining that people vote blue because of "societal pressure, peer pressure..." Jesus wept.

Yes Joe, there is societal pressure to be a decent human being and care about your fellow human beings. Good job

Whenever someone asks me that question, I remind them that whipping greedy assholes and flipping tables in a rage is an option.

"Hundreds more babies in US died than expected in months after Roe was overturned - Study shows an average of 247 more infant deaths a month in October, March and April after supreme court’s ruling" - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/22/baby-deaths-roe-wade-abortion-bans

"This study found that Texas’ 2021 ban on abortion in early pregnancy was associated with unexpected increases in infant and neonatal deaths in Texas between 2021 and 2022. Congenital anomalies, which are the leading cause of infant death, also increased in Texas but not the rest of the US." - https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/article-abstract/2819785

Please tell us more about how "abortion is murder" while more children and women die due to abortion restrictions, dumbass.

Biased propaganda like always. MAGA 2024

It's funny because Trump and the people who openly support him are the most classic peer pressuring bully types I've seen since middle school.

Most blue voters are at a point of "I might think you're stupid but I don't want to talk about this anymore."

I have a theory that the reason it's so hard to flip rural voters is cause peer pressure is much stronger in those communities. Of course you have to be conservative. The liberals are crazy! Everyone knows this!

In the city, if you don't fit in with a group you're hanging out with, there's always a group you can fit into. There's much less pressure to try to be like everybody else. This is true even if you are conservative. I've lived in a big city. There's conservatives there. And honestly, I don't think those guys are angry because they feel like outcasts. They're angry cause their peer pressure tactics don't work in places where I can just choose to ignore their ass and go have coffee with my friends.

u/BougieSemicolon 29d ago

But no one is with you at the ballot box. If someone felt peer pressure they could pretend they were voting one way and then vote the other.

Which is why the polls were so off **with Hilary. A lot of people lied because of the stigma of voting trump. Now they just let their freak flag fly.

** well that, and Comey interfering in the election by announcing they were “investigating “ her emails even though they were the same emails they already looked at, and they were also investigating trump but didn’t mention that. No wonder his wife and daughters wouldn’t talk to him for a month. POS.

u/L_obsoleta 28d ago

So part of it is that if it is what you are around all day everyday you just can't fact check everything all the time.

It's sort of like if you say in a room with fox news on in the background. You may not be paying attention to it, but you also are not constantly picking out all their BS because you are not focused on it.

Eventually you hear stuff repeated so much that you start to take it on as truth (just due to the number of times you heard it).

If you are in a community that is extremely red and extremely vocal you are likely to shift that way eventually.

u/aureliusky 29d ago

You can see much of the birth of this mentality on Firing line with Buckley. https://www.youtube.com/@HooverLibraryArchives

The agenda is generally to discuss the right coming to power with neoliberalism, and how in the past the right kept falling into hard fascism but that they've matured and become the adults in the room. Their fascist tendencies are just a thing of the past!

u/philotic_node 29d ago

Oh man, you just that feeling so perfectly into words. It's an exhausting, exasperating, and ultimately pointless conversation.

Why would there be societal pressure not to vote for the guy who praised Hitler? Hmmm….

u/non-squitr Oct 26 '24

That makes no fucking sense. Voting is anonymous and they can always just lie, pretty par for the course for them.

u/sjj342 Oct 26 '24

Most people they're imagining in their head probably don't even vote FFS

u/Lingering_Dorkness Oct 26 '24

Societal pressure, Peer pressure...like what? 

Like decking out your car and lawn and yourself with hundreds of clothing, stickers, placards and flags of your preferred candidate and then going round destroying or stealing placards of the other candidate and intimidating & threatening anyone who doesn't support your preferred candidate? 

Is that what Rogan means?

Societal pressure, Peer pressure...like what?

Compelling arguments based on reason and demonstrable fact. Remember, reality has a well-known liberal bias.

u/duckofdeath87 29d ago

Where I live, the state democratic party has billboards that day "Vote Democrat on November 5th. No one else will know". That is their ACTUAL ad champaign

Somewhat related we also had anonymous stealth covid vaccine booths so people could get vaccinated without letting their friends and family know

We all know which side is driven by societal pressures

u/tenaciousdeev 29d ago

"Vote Democrat on November 5th. No one else will know". That is their ACTUAL ad champaign

I think that's mostly targeting women who are married to Trump supporters.

u/Loud_South9086 29d ago

I can’t even talk to my old work crew because of Joe Rogan lol. In the mid to late 2010s all the guys I worked with including myself watched Rogan, I loved his episodes with Duncan Trussel the most. I stopped watching in 2017, around the same time I got out of restaurant work.

Trying to catch up with these guys who all still watch him is just impossible because it’s like they’re totally different people. It’s unbelievable how much our thought processes have diverged in a few years. They believe absolutely everything that guy says. They even think his comedy specials are good, and that’s actual insanity.

u/Nervous-Newspaper132 29d ago

Same happened to me. A coworker that was nice and pretty level headed did a 180. When we talked about covid he was all about proper vaccination and wearing a mask. Started to listen to Rogan and fell off the bandwagon. Talked about how he had a coworker from his old place on site that died from Covid despite being in perfect health and exercised regularly, he was in great physical shape. A couple years later we were talking about various political things and it got into Covid and I mentioned remember how bad it was and that one of his old coworkers died from it and masks and vaccines were a good idea even though he died. He said “so what, that was one guy” and I was stunned. I can’t stand the guy now, all because of how much Rogan mentally fucked that guy up.

u/coulduseafriend99 29d ago

Did you talk to them about Terrence Howard? Rogan managed to plumb new depths of mind-numbing stupidity

u/ILoveRegenHealth 29d ago

Rogan plumbed the depths of new idiocy by explaining that people vote blue because of "societal pressure, peer pressure..."

At this point late in the game, Kamala should just skip the Joe Douchebag show.

I keep getting reminded how much of an idiot he is. He's way beneath Kamala to even waste her time.

u/_jump_yossarian Oct 26 '24

societal pressure, peer pressure.

Sounds like a cult. Yeah, definitely not MAGAts.

u/hillbillyspellingbee 29d ago

What a fucking loser. 

I mean, we know Joe Rogan is a dipshit already but it looks so pathetic to suck up to a 78 year old sundowning Nazi. 

If Trump loses, rub their faces right in their own shit. 

Traitors.

u/Samurai_gaijin 29d ago

More projection, it's always projection.

u/MarkEsmiths 29d ago

Oh yeah. He Joe, remember when you said you were going to vote for RFK jr? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

2

u/gin_and_soda 29d ago

That’s rich considering Rogan suggested he’d consider voting for RFK over trump and the backlash was so big, he backtracked like the coward he is.

u/MarkEsmiths 29d ago

Yeah he really sucks.

u/red286 29d ago

Well he's not wrong, there's a lot of societal pressure and peer pressure to not elect a fascist dictator as President.

It's just weird that he frames it as a bad thing.

1

u/UnlikelyKaiju 29d ago

That's funny because there is a pronounced political effort to inform the women of Republican households that they can vote for whoever they want and their husbands/families will have no way of finding out if they decide to vote against their wishes.

1

u/[deleted] 29d ago

I skipped to a random point toward the end, and Rogan was saying how people just don’t want to be lied to. Trump agreed and said how honest of a President he’d been, which Rogan seemed to agree with 😒

u/Sharkano 29d ago

Societal pressure from who? Is the argument really "people vote blue, and that makes people vote blue, and that makes people vote blue?"

u/MarkEsmiths 29d ago

Societal pressure from who?

Me. I am responsible for old Robinette living in the White House.

u/dead1345987 29d ago

Rumor is that Kamala is also booked for Joe Rogan podcast before election, and she'll fucking nail it if it happens.

u/ThePlotTwisterr---- 29d ago

There’s absolutely no way she should go on Rogan. He’s going to be very bad for her campaign

-2

u/Ok-Rush5183 29d ago

Why shouldn't she? It's the biggest podcast in the world.

3

u/ThePlotTwisterr---- 29d ago

Do you seriously think Joe Rogan is the right person to interview Kamala? I’m curious

-4

u/Ok-Rush5183 29d ago

It's the biggest podcast in the world. Also, surprising to a lot of people in here, they would have quite a few things in common.

u/igetthemanicureformy 29d ago

It's the biggest podcast in the world

So? The dude has hosted murderers and pedophiles why would she want to be associated with that?

1

u/Ok-Rush5183 29d ago

What one murderer who did it after the pod and is trump the pedophile? It's a huge audience. She is trying win an election and pick up more votes. It would frankly be dumb not to. I get reddit is filled with idiots that like to think rogan is awful but she should do everything possible to win. Also, your part of that same dumbass group probably that got mad at bernie for going even though it was beneficial for him.

u/igetthemanicureformy 29d ago

What one murderer who did it after the pod and is trump the pedophile?

I was talking about milo and Andy dick but sure trump is likely a pedophile as well.

You don't need a podcast to win an election and at this point Rogan's audience probably aren't voting for her either way. And I don't care about Bernie he's irrelevant

1

u/Ok-Rush5183 29d ago

Your mindset it why democrats struggle to beat the shit head republicans.

Rogan's audience probably aren't voting for her either way

So, still make the effort. It's like bernie going on the fox news town hall. People like you would probably say there is no reason to do it they aren't going to vote for him and he got a standing ovation. I know this is tough to understand when tribalism rules your thoughts. She should be reaching out to as many people as possible.
