"Joe Rogan did not suddenly become shitty this week

"he has been blatantly monstrous on many levels for the duration of his public life

"marginalized folks have been calling out his misogyny and racism for as long as we have been forced to endure white dudebros fawning over him

"the only new guests at the Joe Rogan Sucks party are cishet white men for whom the vaccine disinformation was finally a bridge too far after years of his other bullshit not particularly bothering them because it didn't put them at any risk"

I don't understand. I only know of this person because I've heard about his role in spreading far-right hatred. As far as I can tell, he's getting attention again for spreading far-right hatred?

Yeah, pretty much, but this time with anti-vaxx and/or anti-mandate stuff and/or misinformation re: covid, which got him on more people's radar, so now they're talking about all the far-right + bigotry parts but some folks are acting like those are new because they hadn't noticed before.

Yeah, I'm a hipster with a lot of trans friends so I guess I hated him before it was cool, lol.
