    The same idiot who says these are “soft times” producing “soft men.”

    We’ve had “once in a generation” catastrophes every fucking year I’ve been alive, Joe.

    “We got him elected.”

    There were clips of rogans shitty podcast after trump got elected and Joe Rogan was ecstatic saying this shit. I’m not gonna search for the clip but I’m pretty sure he said it, and undeniably he was enthusiastic about trump winning.

      He also castigated environmental protesters, that’s what turned me off from him, although I don’t pay attention or I would be well off already. This guy is an opportunist. He believes in nothing.

        He was radicalized by Covid lockdowns and not being able to do his entertainment jobs. The guy had enough money to just chill, but he couldn’t just wait it out like the rest of us. He’s worse than agnostic, he’s self centered to the core.

              Neat, i just learned something :3

              Edit: for those that also may not know, it can be used as an adjective to describe things that are noncommital (software, people, etc) or to profess ignorance. Which seems to be how it became a word for someone who is on the fence about a deity. I assume the original commenter was using the latter definition.

    Man if I were Joe I’d be so pissed off at the most popular podcaster in the world for having one of the richest men in the world who bought one of the most widely-used social media sites in the world on his podcast the day before the election to help endorse Trump. If only half the planet had seen this coming and said something!

    Joe Rogan, like their president, reflects them.

    Only the United States could give us Rogan and make him as popular as he is.

    The downfall can’t come fast enough honestly. These arseholes deserve retribution for the shit they’ve done and since the citizenry lacks the spine and decency to do it, collapse of the nation is the only way.

      He was in office for FIFTY YEARS, what did he do? He was a worthless hack.

      Is he better than Trump? Sure. So was every other President, it’s a very low bar.

      But he was not the “good guy” even before he was senile.

        Legit, my stupid friends got mad at me for pointing this out the first time. Biden hasn’t held a regular job since the 70’s. His job was fundraising for politics. They picked him to run with Obama because he was the most milquetoast centrist available (which is literally a proponent of the police state in the US). He was a token, a skin tone balancer. Everyone’s buddy gaffin’ Joe.

        These dynastic politico assholes are the problem. If you’ve spent your whole life in politics, you are deeply out of touch. You can’t possibly legislate properly if you haven’t been forced to engage with the job market for decades. Not even because you are good at your job, because incumbency is the thing that decides elections in MOST cases.

          After Trump the first time, the Democrats had a real chance to clean shit up and seal the deal for GENERATIONS. They had a majority, they could passed a higher minimum wage (at least the 15 people have been protesting for since… 2000? 2010?), universal healthcare, taxes for billionaires, busting up monopolies, and everything else FDR would have agreed with without hesitation. SOMETHING, at least. A few years of this would have been amazing for our consumer economy, consumers are important.

          But no, they’d rather humiliate everyone who voted for him; sure, he wasn’t as bad as Trump. Good job you shithead, how hard was that? Was your 50 years of experience not enough to know how to “beat the system”, all of the ins and outs? Where’s your wisdom, old man?

          The entire last 10 years have been embarrassing to every American, in my opinion, bOtH sIdEs and all that

          Yeah? And what the fuck did you do?

          I know one thing I didn’t do, which is pass legislation that put thousands upon thousands of people into prison for “the drug war”.

          So, that’s nice.

            Yeah, well, you also didn’t slam the brakes on after Trump tried to run this country off the cliff the first time. So there’s a whole lot of shit you haven’t done, other than run your mouth.

              That’s quaint, since Biden is notorious for running his mouth.

              Please note that you are confuzzled, it’s BIDEN that didn’t slam the brakes on after Trump tried to run this country off the cliff the first time, not me. Time for your nappy perhaps

              Did you know he authored the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986?

              Anyway, I’m sure Biden will appreciate your service to his horrific career of ineptitude. Anti-Drug Act alone was disgraceful

                And apparently that’s all you got, is bitching and moaning about legislation from 40 years ago that happened under a massive national mania. Fine. Don’t get over it. Things change, people change, except possibly you.

                  Massive national mania indeed, something I’m sure you have been duped by again and again and again and again.

                  Biden didn’t change, he was shit then and he is shit now. Now cry more, you’re good at that!

              Biden could’ve slammed the brakes on Trump by appointing an AG who would’ve pursued prosecution and put Trump behind bars for his many crimes. Instead he appointed Merrick Garland, who was as useless as himself. Such is standard operating procedure of the democratic party: let bad guys go so you can have someone worse to run against instead of actually making things better.

    He’s wrong, though. The chaos is not universal, it’s coming from a single place. A white house with a giant hole next door.
