NEW: Joe Rogan goes off on liberalism, says he was a liberal his whole life but can no longer support their cause because it has “gone full communist.”
Rogan is wide awake 🔥
“I was very left-leaning… at the end of the day, I’m way more left than I am right. But California went nuts, man.”
“It’s gone like full communist. It’s out of its fucking mind. And their approach to law enforcement is so insane. It’s so insane.”
“The no cash bail, the letting people out for committing violent crimes, not stopping people for stealing.”
Yep, the progressive Left has become [I say become sarcastically] a cult. Joe Rogan is right…
BUT this “shamming/excommunication/cult-like,” etc… aspect of the Left has always existed. HOOVER has a great article on the removal and truncating of history by Stalin called “Inside Stalin’s Darkroom”. And the first few books I read on the subject that alerted me to the move by Democrats and the Left to censor speech were:
- Illiberal Education: The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus (1991)
- The Shadow University: The Betrayal of Liberty on America’s Campuses (1999)
- The Betrayal of Liberalism: How the Disciples of Freedom and Equality Helped Foster the Illiberal Politics of Coercion and Control (1999)
- The Dark Side of the Left: Illiberal Egalitarianism in America (2003)\The New Thought Police: Inside the Left’s Assault on Free Speech and Free Minds (2003)
In other words, Joe Rogan is late to the Party and is only now [partially] realizing that the Party and ideals he supported is the foundation for radical censorship and the curtailing of freedom and the source of tyranny.
I wanted to include a comment that someone made along with my response:
- I used to be a republican most of my life until these past 6 or 7 years or so. After trump and the magot cult I’ll never go republican again.
MY RESPONSE:
Trump curtailed regulation and government policy more than Reagan. We still have a long way to go… like shutting down [completely] the Department of Education, for instance. But we need someone closer to Javier Milei in office… but on a related note: libertarian economist Milton Friedman voted Republican almost his entire life, as does libertarian Thomas Sowell after leaving Marxism. Jason, be part of the base of the GOP that pushes us towards freedom and [God willing] limited government.
