He interviewed with Dave Rubin and Joe Rogan. Also who on the left would interview him? That's the issue with claiming that he only talked to one side.

- jashmatthews 7y agoAs he said in his interview with Peterson, he declined interviews with any centrist media. He filed an NLRB complaint before posting, hired Charles Johnson (who is a professional conspiracy dude and claims to know where MH370 is) to run PR and made a bee-line directly for maximum exposure with people like Molyneaux. That's a very deliberate choice. He's no martyr of rational thought.
- alxmp 7y agoWhere is the centrist media? Mainstream media is a mix of SJW and occasional attacks on corporations as a diversion to hide the actual exploitative system. Also, in what world is Joe Rogan alt-right? He's all over the place politically (as one should be). EDIT: Apparently libertarians are such a great threat to the people who have their snouts in the trough that they have to be labeled "alt-right".
- reroute1 7y ago"Centrist media" kind of took a dump on him... Why would he run to them? Is Joe Rogan not a centrist? He is self proclaimed liberal on most topics, right wing is a silly label
- uxcolumbo 7y agoWhat makes you think Joe Rogan is alt right? Watching his interviews with various people who are more left leaning doesn't give me the impression that he is alt-right.
- jashmatthews 7y agoHe didn’t appear on Rogan until a long time after his first interviews.
- dirtydroog 7y agoRogan was labelled alt-right after he interviewed Gavin McInness and Alex Jones again (a comical interview btw). That may have been cancelled out by him interviewing Bernie Sanders though.
- free_rms 7y agoRogan is aesthetically a bro, that's all this comes down to. If he were more 'soy' and less 'bro', while having the same mostly-liberal opinions, he'd get an entirely different reaction from the elite cultural left.
- dirtydroog 7y agoI'm a European living and working in Europe. I have no idea what a 'bro' is.
- free_rms 7y agoAnd I'm too American to give you a good analogy :) In England I think they'd say 'chav'? Think culturally lowbrow vs cultural elite. Rogan came up as a cage fighting commentator. In Europe there would be a lot more techno blasted out of a much smaller car.
- alexilliamson 7y agoA stereotypical bro is someone who says "bro" a lot, like to do chest bumps with their others bros, scream about sports while shotgunning a beer, and talks with his bros about women as sex objects.

- manigandham 7y agoJoe Rogan is not alt right, far from it. That was my point, that the interviews were not from one side.
