The US Presidential Election Thread

[Val Keating]

Yeah, it's a dumb guy listening to a grifter with dementia.

Riveting stuff.

Rogan isn’t dumb.

You’re just applying that cheap label to discredit him.

It’s a weak tactic, and it doesn’t work.

 

[Dan]

If only Biden did a 3 hour podcast with Joe.

(He won’t….neither would Harris but she should)

I’d have my bingo card ready.

 

[Chadwiko]

The best (and arguably only good) Joe Rogan clip;

Rogan isn’t dumb.

Nah he’s pretty dumb

 

[Chadwiko]

Nah he’s pretty dumb

And he's not funny.

His latest comedy special was painful.

 

[tricknologist]

dumb describes him pretty accurately

 

[blackshadow]

Nah he’s pretty dumb

He's pretty dumb.

He's got a good grift going on - he plays the pseudo-intellectual contrarian very well and sucks a lot of people in with it. But when you look at the substance there's not a lot going on at all.

I don't really care about this stupid seppo election but I'm surprised people don't agree that Trump needs the sort of generals Hitler had.

Rogan most certainly isn't stupid. He's many things, but dumb is not one of them.

You don't get to his position in the culture being stupid.

He's like the Coldplay of podcasting.

Immensely popular but immensely shit.

He's just a media personality type, not a true grifter.

But when you look at the substance there's not a lot going on at all.

There's not a lot going on with pretty much all people in broadcast these days lol.

For what it's worth, I still think women will win it for Harris, and it'll actually be pretty comfortable in the end.

Geez….

 

[Dan]

Some miserable sods round these parts.

 

[ferball]

What? You like Coldplay?

 

[Dan]

What? You like Coldplay?

Don’t mind em but immensely shit?

Imagine hearing that about ACDC, Queen, The Beatles, Frank Sinatra …..you’d think that guy has rocks in his head.

Dude are you comparing Coldplay to the Beatles???? (Or any of those other bands as well...)

Some would.

Like anything it’s subjective.

 

[ferball]

This thra-ed has it all.

Coldplay or the Beatles?

Micheal Parkinson or Joe Rogan?

Kamala Harris or Donald Trump?

Gen. Has Spiedel or Gen. Hans Oster?

Does it have to be one or the other?

 

[ferball]

Some would.

Would they? Clearly they have less musical sensibility than a fossilised trilobite.

The Beatles are objectively better musically than Coldplay. Not even Chad could disagree with that.

 

[ferball]

In at least one of those comparisons it does...
