  • There’s nothing inherently special about Joe Rogan, he’s just a popular media figure who repeats generally right-wing talking points and presents a right-wing aesthetic, and thereby funnels his audience into that mode of thinking.

    Liberals have several of their own equivalents of this figure on various talk shows and news stations, but people don’t like them because they’re smug dickheads who exist to cough up the same tired lib-shit that people are only ever more burnt-out on. And young people don’t really watch television media anymore.

    There are popular liberal / left figures online that democrats could tap into, but the most popular tend to be too far left of the party leaders to support. The democrats ultimately do not want leftists or even just “progressives”, they want the moderate republicans – the dragon they can’t stop chasing – and only tolerate the left flank of their party at best.

    They literally just need better politics, and they’re hellbent on rejecting that change, unless it’s moving rightward and becoming a wussier version of republicans. So (god willing) they will die as a party, and they will deserve it.
