How much exactly do you think Joe Rogan knows about the government of Canada? Pretty sure it's around fuck all. He's just a propagandist for the fascist regime at this point.
What's crazy is how outright pro-Trump pilled the Canadian right was until about three months ago when Trump took office. You had the Conservative party outright bragging about being Pro-Trump, Trudeau floundering in the polls because of his criticisms of the Trump leadership team, and big oil-exporting states absolutely glowing at the prospect of a climate denialist government joining hands with them in the next election.
Then Trump took office and started threatening sanctions, he started accusing Canadians of exporting fentanyl, and he started making vague threats aimed at Canadian territory. Public sentiment turned on a dime. The Conservative Party crashed in the polls. Trudeau's liberals surged. Canadian media and politics turned incredibly hostile towards anyone Trump affiliated.
And now guys like Rogan are just catching strays for being Trump adjacent. He doesn't know anything about Canada. He just knows his (increasingly former) Canadian base is suddenly calling him all the slurs they'd historically reserved for his left-wing guests.
I recall shortly back a lot of us Canadians talked about leaving the monarch, but we seem to have gotten over that in a hurry also. 😉
People's opinions change very quick now.
I think it's just the propaganda machine being efficient. All the major social media platforms are owned by billionaires (except blue sky but not sure there's nearly as many users compared to twit/meta/reddit) and they're manipulated to push the interests of the elites.
How much do you think Rogain actually knows.....full stop...about any subject?
He knows lots about MMA.. and that's about it.
He may have forgotten much of it after getting hit in the head too many times
Joe Rogan became convinced Trudeau was a dictator because of COVID restrictions.
Like they say aboht him, knowledge a mile wide, and only an inch deep. He has been defending women beaters, rapists and anti intellectualism before he became an actual tool of the new regime.
A mile wide my ass, fucker had an empty head even before he started farming concussions.
Rogain is such a pussy. He’d never leave his basement to go to Russia.
I dont know who needs this information, but:

I don't want to know you've doxed someone; but what's with this address?
Sharing information that is publicly available isn't doxing, even if it isn't widely known.
Its a production studio location for a popular podcast. Can't recall which one.
You aren't wrong, but it doesn't mean what you are doing is right.
If you want something dirty done don't pussy foot around it and do it yourself.
I think if times were shaping up to be different, I would completely agree with you.
However, it seems like the US is gearing up to start a global conflict the likes of which we haven't seen for almost 100 years. There is slim opportunity, now, to maybe stop it. Or at least buy whom I would consider to be the allies of a free, open, and democratic society time to prepare a bit further.
What this means to me is to not worry so much about how others choose to gate keep or endorse whatever it is you have to offer. To me it means all options are on the table, including flipping the table over. If all you can do is a little, do a little. If what you can do is much more, then do much more. But the gatekeeping, the "Why are you doing X, you should be doing Y" from people who are doing neither..
I know how these things shape up, in my limited and poor experience. It takes a village. It takes many parts.
If you want something dirty done don’t pussy foot around it and do it yourself.
I won't repeat myself again.
I won’t repeat myself again.
Great. Why dont you keep it that way in the future?
You think Russia has a better government than Canada? What in the living fuck?
He knows where he's getting his bread from. Don't go to Canada. As a matter of fact, stay out of everyone's way and do the world a favour. Cunt.
Keeping Joe Rogan out? Probably the best campaign ad the Liberals have right now.
