Joe Rogan reacts to MSNBC article linking fitness to white supremacy: 'Holy f***'



A resurfaced article that linked physical fitness to white supremacy garnered a shocked response from podcast host Joe Rogan after the official account for MSNBC posted it Monday.

"Being healthy is 'far right.' Holy f***," he tweeted.

The opinion article from 2022 tried to claim that white supremacists online were trying to use physical fitness in order to seduce people into extremist groups.

The article from opinion columnist Cynthia Miller-Idriss was ridiculed widely when it was first published, and that mockery was reignited on social media.

"The only way to prove you're not a Nazi is to get fat," said columnist Bridget Phetasy, who has been a guest on Rogan's podcast.

"Being normal is a revolutionary act nowadays," replied BlazeTV host Lauren Chen.

"Wtf, i did 10 pushups and now there's a swastika tattoo on my shoulder," joked one user when the article was originally published.

Others scolded Rogan for supposedly not reading the article before responding.

"Begging you zero brain cell s***heads to read past a headline just one time. Good Lord," read one response.

"I love how millions of dudes think this guy is some genius when he’s a total f***ing moron who can’t read," said another critic.

Rogan had previously mocked liberals for trying to link fitness to the right-wing cause and accused them of appealing to people who are lazy and fat on his incredibly popular podcast.

"There's a giant percentage of our population that is really lazy and fat, and if you want those people on your team you have to say, 'There's nothing wrong with being lazy and fat, in fact; not being lazy and fat is actually connected to misogyny, racism, and fascism, and the far right,'" said Rogan in February.

"So people are like, 'Great, let's just eat donuts and just f***ing vote blue,'" he concluded.

Rogan's tweet about the article received more than 163k likes and 10.5 million views in just five hours.

Joe Rogan rejects clamor for new gun control and sparks liberal outrage online



Joe Rogan rejected the clamor for new gun control regulations and outraged many liberals who lashed out online against the podcast superstar.

Rogan rejected calls for greater gun restrictions while speaking to scientist Lex Fridman on the Thursday edition of his popular podcast.

“It’s like, how do you stop that? No one knows how to stop that,” Rogan said.

“What is the answer? Is the answer to take everyone’s guns?" added Rogan. "Well, they’re not gonna give their guns up. Only criminals are gonna have guns. It’s not gonna be a good situation.”

He went on to make the conservative argument that an armed populace is a necessary precaution against the possibility of a totalitarian government.

“We see how they are, even with an armed populace, they still have a tendency towards totalitarianism," Rogan continued.

“And the more increased power and control you have over people, the easier it is for them to do what they do. And it’s a natural inclination, when you’re a person in power, to try to hold more power and acquire more power. And it's never, there's never an inclination to give more power back to the people. to give more freedoms back to the people," he added.

"Freedoms lost are rarely regained," Rogan concluded.

Many on the left went on the attack against Rogan on social media.

"I am shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, that Joe Rogan is saying stupid s*** that is not based on reality," read one popular tweet.

"Joe Rogan admits he’s a moron, so why does anybody listen to him?" tweeted a left-wing activist band.

"Shocked, shocked, that once again Joe Rogan has weighed in with Archie Bunker wisdom from 50 years ago," said another user.

"Joe Rogan doesn't oppose gun control because of some deep logistical thought process he spent years cultivating. He opposes it because he knows he's built a predominantly large right wing fan base and doesn't wish to upset them," tweeted another critic.

Rogan hosts the most popular podcast in the world.
