I used to listen to Joe Rogan like 10 years ago, back then it was all weed smoking and crazy conspiracy theories and jui jitsu and getting fit. Whats changed its been a while?

Nothing and everything. Joe Rogan’s ‘I’ll talk with anybody’ reputation which made his show so appealing at the start landed a lot of right-wing extremists on that show. People began to criticize Joe Rogan for not having any standards and giving truely horrible people a platform. Typically the more left leaning a person was the more they criticized him and this has slowly pushed his opinions to the right over the last decade. Additionally a lot of Trump supporters began to see Joe Rogan’s show as a means to popularize and legitimize their beliefs. Since Joe Rogan is so impressionable, and Trump supporters found a home there he made the final leap into right-wing conspiracy theories after Trump was elected and has been getting even more out of touch with reality ever since.

He’s become a right wing media amplifier.
