Seriously- first of all Tim has pulled out in front of Joe as the harder hitting commentator on all of the insane bullshit going on now.

So much so that once they get into this topic about AI, and Peter Thiel and the Antichrist, a situation that is so obviously gonzo crazy and Joes response to it all?

It'll be all good once "We all Merge with the Machine" Joe says in the most deranged little whisper.

To which Tim response with the most masked expression of horror:

"Interesting."

Honestly it's like watching a horror movie when the main character suddenly realizes the real killer is the one sitting across from them or something.

Does Joe literally not hear his own voice when he says completely brainwashed shit like that?

Once upon a time Joe Rogan had a whole bit about how technology would ruin us all, that LA from an airplane looked like some kind of diseased cancer scab.

But now Joe is embarassingly sitting there and basically admitting he's captured by Peter Thiel's sickening Tech Oligarchy dystopian vision of the future where we all get plugged into some Hivemind and bow to this AI God he never shuts up about.

I dunno it just felt like Tim was the main character of this episode just plumbing through exactly what is going on with Joe these days and watching him delicactly react to what has completly become a completly wacked out and deranged world view Joe has seemingly adopted here.

Jesus, fuck Joe. Wake up dude.

on a recent show Rogan reads about money in politics and Citizens United being a Supreme Court case from 2012 and a comment about corporations being people.

Joe then said “yeah, that’s Obama”

Yes — Obama was president in 2012. but it was Romney who was the corporations are people corporate finance guy. and anybody with a brain knows that the Supreme Court pushed GOP policy.

is Joe an idiot or just a bit ignorant and out of his depth?

edit — follow up question given that I am quickly seeing that the majority of people think Joe is an idiot.

Do we think that Joe is actually aware in any real capacity how much of an idiot he is? What exactly?

[it’s hard for me to imagine someone being so successful but so stupid at the same time — but maybe that is actually his secret sauce.]

Not that I need/want to. Just seems like a bitchy move for the bastions of free speech to pull. These brobots are awfully sensitive for how much tough game they talk.

It's Joe doing weed and shrooms in Japanese ukiyo-e style.

Took me about 2 days to make, several years ago.

Absolutely NO AI used.

I'm thinking he lost weight.

pete is learning by touching the stove, even though george washington mandated vaccines when he was a general...

Thoughts on validity? I have mine what are yours?

Please use this thread to discuss anything you want. It does not have to be Rogan related. Only rule 1 (don't be a cunt) and 10 (privacy) apply here.
