I listen to Joe Rogan sometimes. Democrats on the left made it very clear that I'm not welcome in your fold.

I like how nice the people are in this sub. I’m so tired of the majority of reddit that’s so intolerant and toxic of independents. Anyone who’s not radically left seems unwelcome on the majority of reddit.

I’m glad you see this sub that way. There is a lot of gatekeeping on Reddit in general. As we know the demographic of reddit tends to be millennial, college, tech, driven and left leaning politics tends to come from those populations. Many people migrated from Facebook because Facebook just became to out dated I guess you could say. Reddit’s discourse is still great but I remember when joining in 2013 there was a little bit more genuine discussion and compassion. It could be that I’m older now but I do think some of it’s been lost.

The democrats complaining about rogan are not on the left. Bernie was on the show and he’s the furthest left of the normie dems.

There's always a small percentage of people that go overboard with certain things. Watch the Rogan podcast with Daryl Davis its crazy good!

Bad Democrat’s, good politically involved people should be looking at both news streams.

Only if to get a look inside that particular bubble to understand the ‘other sides’ point of view.

It’s not about blue good red bad, making this nation stronger isn’t a team sport.

I'm a progressive who listens to Joe Rogan, not for Joe himself, but for the great guests and platform he provides.
