    I can’t believe I used to listen to him lol he got me with the scientist interviews… Like not the Egyptian aliens types, but people like Neil Degrass Tyson.

    Then I listened enough to realize he’s a jackass right winger pretending that liking weed puts him on the left somehow, kinda like Bill Maher. Yeah yeah Bill you’re tolerant of “the gays” and you like weed, but he’s center right if anything, again pretending he’s on the left for his ratings.

      I think if you’re a right winger who smokes weed, that makes you a libertarian, not a liberal.

        If you think Libertarians and Republicans aren’t the same thing, you’re smoking too much weed.

          You know there’s a big difference between a liberal and libertarian, right?

          Libertarian - an advocate or supporter of a political philosophy that advocates only minimal state intervention in the free market and the private lives of citizens.

          Liberal - a supporter of policies that are socially progressive and promote social welfare.

            Ok, I’ll spell it out for you. Joe Rogan is the one claiming to be a liberal or at the very least, a centrist. Not me and not the person you were originally replying to. Everyone here knows Joe Rogan is a libertarian.

              Oh, thank you so much. I don’t follow the whole Joe Rogan thing so I wasn’t familiar with him claiming to be a liberal. I thought he stuck to the conservative/libertarian thing and wasn’t trying to convince people he was something else. Thanks! TIL
