OT: Billy Corben on The Joe Rogan podcast

[TemplarCane]

I went all four hours on that podcast and have watched some of the clips over again...Eddie and Joe egging him on and taking the ridiculousness up is just hilarious to me. When Eddie Bravo walks in and Alex Jones begs to get choked out so he can have an out of body experience so he can see in the future and follows up that with a story about how he lost his virginity is comedy.

I have to admit listening to Eddie Bravo and Alex Jones rant on is funny.

Eddie Bravo explaining flat earth theory to Alex Jones. Jokes for days.

I enjoy Rogan's non political guests. Recently listened to a journalist that covered one of the Mexican cartels recently and had insane stories about how much power the cartels have in that country. I also enjoy when they talk about space and the universe as well.

That was an excellent episode, good call.

I don’t mind the political guests, but I could skip Jordan Peterson and not miss anything. A few too many repeats of the same guests repeating the same chats.

Yeah, I think that was British journalist last name Grillo. That was very interesting although part of me wondered how much was embellishment on his part.

I thought the same to an extent but from all I read the cartels are known to override local law enforcement.

100% Agree.


HARD disagree. Plus, most of the extremism on the right leads to violence in the form of shootings/bombings related to religious zealot white supremacy/national socialism dressed up as patriotism. Most of the extremism on the left is just cuckoo conspiracy theory anti-vaxxer unrealistic utopian bullsh1t rhetoric that is more about passive resistance than violent resistance.

There are extremists on both sides, and we all need to figure out who is extreme on both ends and try to stay focused on what affects everyday people. However, I'm much more personally afraid of right-wing extremism than I am left-wing extremism.

First off, Steve Scalise would like a word w you with regards to political violence.

Second, national socialism is a right wing idea ?!?

And the extremists on the left are just anti-vaxers and conspiracy theorists !? You been living in a cave the past few years? Never heard of ANTI-FA? Try wearing a MAGA hat around for a day and see how much hate comes your way.

BTW, Leftist ideology has a body count of 100M+ in just the last century alone, so please tell me again why we should be afraid of the right wingers again?

How did you ascertain that I'm for censorship? I've listened to Rogan and probably will continue to do so but that doesn't absolve him from criticism. The Alex Jones stuff isn't an isolated incident where Rogan was just humorously giving the guy enough rope to hang himself publicly. It's obviously a mutually beneficial relationship now where Rogan is glad to appear on Infowars too.

You're right about people having the option to not listen. I'm a free markets guy at heart. Listen, don't listen.....even boycott or support sponsors if you want. Free speech isn't freedom from critique or public scorn though.

You questioned why Joe would even give someone like AJ a platform, as if the best thing to do w guys like Jones is to censor them out of existence.

My apologies if that isn’t the case w you, just hate to see people voluntarily give up their rights because of muh progressivism.

Once they’re gone, Gluck getting them back.

^^^This. We should be wary of both. People state-side tend to make more excuses for right-wing extremism because it is wrapped up in religion and faux-patriotism. That's why it's scarier to me.

In my day-to-day life, Antifa isn't trying to shoot/bomb me nor anyone I know. It's a lot more likely that right-wing extremism within the US can hurt me than Antifa can.

Wait wut?

Please cite examples of all the right wing violence that is taking place in America right now.

 

[usfcane]

Right now right wing (racists, religious nuts like jihadists) tend to be more responsible for violence globally, but in 60s through 80s it was left wing neo-Marxist groups like Shining Path, Red Army Faction, Weather Underground, etc. Before that it was right wing, with fascists, racists like the KKK, and and paramilitary (Irgun). Then before that, it was left wing, anti-imperialists and anarchists (Black Hand, started a little something called WW1). Both left and right have very dangerous people. You aren't "safer" on either side. 10-15 years from now, it's a good bet you will see the pendulum swing back and left wing Marxist groups that use terrorism will make a comeback as countries abandon socialism.

KKK was founded by democrats, where do you get this stuff from?

In the late 1800s, democrats were the party of the South. Upholding the traditional southern way of life. Majority of the confederate statues put up during Reconstruction were put there by democrats. Jefferson Davis was a democrat.

They were a very right party for a long time.

Aww, the ol party switch theory, no sorry man, that’s just not true.

What party voted against the 64’ Civil Rights Act again?

 

[OriginalCanesCanesCanes]

How many times is Billy Cohen going to go back to the "Miami" documentary well? Multiple cocaine cowboy movies. Multiple "The U" movies. Now he's pimping his Balco-steroid-A-Rod movie like steroids in baseball isn't a twenty year old topic. Is his next flick going to be a behind the scenes look at the production of Scarface? I believe I saw he released a live action dramatic production about *surprise* Cocaine Cowboy, Rivi Ayala. How many times can one filmmaker regurgitate the same content?

Yeah his well has already been running dry for a while now.

You didn't pass 11th Grade United States History, did you?

Where do you get your stuff from? Do you understand anything about American history or politics? #1: Your claim is objectively false and is debunked in literally the first link in a Google search of "KKK and the Democratic Party." So starting off with a easily debunked lie isn't a great way to win an argument. Many KKK members joined the Democratic Party, but the party did not create the KKK.

2nd, Do you seriously think the southern Democrats in the 1800s who were members of the KKK were left wing liberals that would hang out with Nancy Pelosi? The Democratic Party was long associated with Jim Crow laws and racism. Read a history book. Southerners who were unhappy with the result of the civil war and freeing of slaves chose the political party that Lincoln did NOT belong to. Guess which one that was? The parties basically flipped around the civil rights act of 1964, as opportunist Republicans saw an opportunity for a powerful wedge issue (it worked). I've heard some dumb arguments in my life, but claiming the KKK was a left wing liberal group because many members were southern Democrats (aka Dixiecrats) is perhaps the dumbest one of all.

I’m so glad I started this thread....

The Miami Billy knows isn't the one I live in.

It's absolutely the one I live in. I grew up down here and lived abroad + all over the states. Things are " Special " in My-Jammy.

This is a full on savage state especially down here, nothing U can do but embrace it....

 

[Tad Footeball]

But but but Alex Jones "apologized" for his Sandy Hook trutherism. You must be for censorship if you don't think everyone should willingly and repeatedly share their platforms with him!

Alex Jones: Hold my beer, dupes!

Alex Jones broadcasts conspiracy theories on Sandy Hook dad Jeremy Richman’s death

Every city in the country is filled swindlers, shysters, and unscrupulous types. The city is not defined by them. I guess if you hang out with those types like Billy does, then you'd have a warped sense of what Miami is.
