Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

omg dude can't just say "yeah he was a business associate, so were a bunch of people" and then just get indignant about being acused of being a pedo
like that's it. his fanbase would just melt back into the default mode
but instead he's alienating his most frothing, loyal, conspiracy brained supporters by just telling them they are all fools and suckers. fools and suckers for either believing him or being "tricked" by the dems (which by extension means Trump and co were tricked for like almost a decade)
you've demolished all the bridges donny boy. closed the paths out. sure you'll wiggle out of whatever but when you have Rogan acolytes calling the DSA the only true america first party you might have done fucked up
What are they going to do, not vote for him? Lmao
Really?
I will say, I have plenty of friends who are Rogan heads…the Rogan bloc is amenable to whichever group will court them and the republicans are really huffing their own farts if they think these people are solidly their base.
I could easily see them get radicalized towards more left wing positions
he'll never lose his true fanbase, the actual MAGA types, no. some might disengage and get lazy about electoralism. but yeah the Rogan libertarians will probably split: some will disengage, some go back to reason.com libertarianism to fret, and some remember their stint as Bernie bros but just like the Rogan sphere podcaster, see Mamdani as the new model of politically giving a shit.
i mean he's got fit, he's effortlessly masculine, has a classically beautiful wife, more radical then Bernie (for now..), and the State (and by extension, the Elites) are all united against him. dems hate him, which makes him anti-woke.
one thing I agree with Sam Seder on is that when these guys say "woke" they mean "weak".
it will be the subset that are the least racist, most amenable to pro-Palestine/anti-Zionism, and disillusioned with capitalism. it will be those mythical "white men" the dems want but they don't really want
Also he's really good at talking. Check out his interview if you haven't already
