Various nuggets of interest in this survey of Gen Z and millennials
Gen X woman here. Listening to Joe Rogan is a red flag.
Why?
Honest question. I don’t listen to the pod cast but I watch some of the clips on YouTube and have never really found anything to be too incendiary. The podcast seems to be as about as interesting as who ever the guest that week is.
Why is this comment the dumbest I’ve ever heard? Many people are talking about this. Lots of people are saying that this person might have been trying to push an agenda. I’m just asking questions here. Questions that I could look up and find the answer to but that’s not the point of the podcast. The podcast is to discuss interesting topics, like this comment, maybe being the dumbest comment. Let’s bring on our guest, someone who has nothing to do with the topic, but is full of opinions. Again, this is a topic we could easily research but that’s not the point of the podcast, the point of the podcast is just to talk, just to ask questions and have a conversation, an intellectual conversation with other men, and hot girls of course! Anyway removed amirite?

Sometimes I wonder how much the repeated concussions had a part in this.
Also you got me at Broseph Jogan x)
Sounds like you listen to a lot of his podcast
It’s accurate isn’t it? And no, I really don’t. This is just what I pick up from clips. But I tell you… I don’t know why anyone would fill a 3-4 hour podcast each day with “We’re just asking questions which can easily be answered”?
No wait, I don’t know why anyone would listen to that podcast. I get why the format exists - it’s easier to fill 3-4 hours with bs.
And they’d be right

Insecure people that are scared of being made to feel stupid, I imagine.

tbh
- 70yrs of red scare
- anything left of center (and I’m being generous here) is labelled a communist regardless of actual political affiliation

That’s okay Waifu pillows come with implied consent
Let’s just agree on “No lives matter”, especially when driving
Am I a girl? They’re red flags for me, well not the Joe rogan one, it depends on why you listen to his podcast, for him probably yes, for his guests probably no.
Joe Rogan is Goop for Men.
Sounds like 45 percent don’t know who he is.
So men are desperate but afraid of communism… and black people… and astrology?
I understand astrology very much. I dont understand how it even gained such popularity.
A few of those are concerning. Owning a gun: 46% of the guys: HELL JEA!!
Lost all respect for him and any of his fans when I heard him SCREAMING at a primatologist when she was correcting whatever it is he said was wrong. This guy started just screaming at this old woman because she had the audacity to tell him there was no such thing as a “Bondo Ape”. If a guy can’t change his mind when presented with DNA evidence and results in acting like a wild beast that’s gonna be a red flag.
It also makes me wonder how many times he’s screamed at guests/callers for telling he’s factually wrong and what the gender breakdown is.

And people wonder why they are single. Because they are red flaggging potential partners for stupid things like this. While it might as well be a nice person open for debate and not afraid to compromise.

Why should I trust changeresearch.com?

To me, that is just words on a server somewhere.
Nice thing about getting an SO is that you really only need one person
Weird to see so many lemm.ee users gloating over this when 64% of men and 55% of women see identifying as a communist as a red flag also.
It’s because saying you’re a communist usually means you also think the horrors commited by Russia/USSR/China etc are either fake or justified. People who are really just in favor of common ownership of the means of production usually call themselves socialists or marxists.
Most communist flags are red aren’t they? It’s kinda our thing.
What’s wrong with lemm.ee members?
I guess they think we’re all communist because we’re not right wing extremists.
Meanwhile Hexbear thinks we’re all goose stepping fascists because we don’t unilaterally approve of the genocide of the ughyurs and celebrate the peaceful protests at that square place

It’s not a hardline, red flag is a warning. Something to be cautious of and aware of.

Rogan is a stupid, reactionary man, who often uses his vast reach to spread provably false information. Anyone who watches him unironically is highly likely to also be stupid and reactionary.
I can understand how someone would feel personally attacked by that statement or the news that many people view it as a red flag if they’re a Joe Rogan fan.

I haven’t really watched anything since he went to Spotify
Says it all really. Maybe you should watch some of his Spotify material and inform your opinion on his current output instead of his past output.
I also used to enjoy watching his show. It was often interesting, with a wide variety of guests. I do not enjoy watching his show anymore due to the kind of people he regularly platforms, and the false info he spreads; vaccines, ivermectin, cat litter spring to mind. My own fucking dad here in the UK fell victim to his bullshit after hearing a quote about kids wanting to be cats that turned out to be regurgitated bullshit spread by Rogan. That to me was the the final straw, how someone so disconnected from those circles could be exposed to Rogan disinfo, and a warning light that his disinfo has a worrying reach.
I don’t really care about conspiracy theories
You should care more. Conspiracy theories killed people during the pandemic. Conspiracy theories bolster Russia.
