Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Joe Rogan is NOT going to vote for Bernie Sanders. [View all]Demsrule86
(71,555 posts)coming out of my son's mouth...and I walked by his door and was disturbed with what I head...I listened to much of his stuff...I have access to it. And I found it a pernicious hate filled rant...say what you want but this guy spreads hatred against POC, Gay people and Women...he is probably worse than Limbaugh...he makes it socially acceptable to hate and endangers those society loves to marginalize... and in the case of trans-women and Gay people. He makes it socially acceptable to sneer and believe bigoted lies about them. And, I mean the world would be a better place without those Gay child abusers and weird Trans-women...am I right?
It is a free country, listen to whom you chose. But just so you know, I won't support a candidate that thinks this guy Rogan's endorsement is something special in the primary. In fact, as Mineral Man said, I will actively campaign against him in the primary. Rogan's hate filled screeds mixed with a few progressive talking points makes the bigots feel good about themselves and their dark views... and encourages acceptance for these pernicious views. I have fought my entire life for social justice and civil rights. And it is beyond disturbing to learn that some progressives not only listen to this guy but agree with him. Seriously, I am horrified and saddened by this.
And this post is not about you or an accusation in any form..just an explanation of how I feel about Rogan's endorsement of Sanders and Sander's celebration of said endorsement. I don't know you or what you believe.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
