Atlas Hugged posted:Weirdly I read it as a defense of slavery because according to him all the tools we use to condemn slavery are based exclusively in ideology and dogma. 'slavery is only bad if you accept basic human rights as some fundamental truth' or maybe 'you can only believe slavery is wrong if you believe in God' or some other dumb poo poo, I don't know, and I guess that's the point

He has made it clear in other places that he believes anyone who is not a sociopath is a secret Christian because he personally cannot conceive of having a conscience if you're not terrified of divine retribution. Not in those words because he refuses to say anything directly, but in enough cases that the source is obvious.

toiletbrush posted:thats sort of how I read it too I read it more as 'the Christian premise that humans are uniquely and explicitly created in god's image, distinct from the rest of creation, is the fundamental reason why treating one another as property is wrong' but phrased in such a chickenshit way as to barely be a question. He doesn't feel the need to frame his actual opinion, as per usual.

What's the deal with Jim Jeffries, anyway? I saw some of his standup yeeeaaars ago and it was up there with some of the most crass edgelord comedy I've ever seen, and he just seemed boorish and irritating. Did he get sober recently or something? Because the content he's produced more recently seems compassionate and well-reasoned and funnier than before.

Rogan was a decent comedian once. As Subjunctive said, Newsradio was pretty good. And even some of his standup has decent observational humour that you don't have to be a chud or a wook to enjoy. In an alternate universe, he's still on the standup circuit nursing his waning relevance, and all the charlatans he would have otherwise platformed are similarly irrelevant. Instead, he lucked into reality TV at the right time, and used Fear Factor's lucrative payout to yet again luck into the podcasting game at a crucial point in its development, and probably altered the course of human history for the worse.

News Radio was great. I wish I'd see Dave Foley more. A lot of people hate it but I like Rogan as a UFC commentator. He is knowledgeable and can describe what's happening pretty well. Shame about his..... everything else.

But that was a comparison that I would have expected anyone over the age of 6 to be able to make. The fact that he hadn't is indicative of many things, none of which make Jorp look good.

Considering he promotes himself as an authority figure, "rules for life" guru and (cod-)philosopher, no you do not gotta hand it to him that he failed to make the most simple and obvious comparison to his anti-gay position.

One his stand-up bits is about how stupid America is about guns so even when he was an alcoholic his head was on straight about some stuff.

I don't give him credit for that either as he has absolutely not grown as a person from the correction. He still has the same hateful message. At best he stopped using one incredibly obviously wrong argument when he got humiliated with it while still having the same beliefs and using different phrasing. Doing debate club style "Ah good sir, you have bested me with that turn of phrase!" and rolling right along with the same emotional message of hatred towards a targeted out group is just fascist conversational chaff. Not caring about your words because it is the enemy who cares about words not you, to mangle a quote.

Are we sure that Jorp has never thought of that before? Or is it just the first time someone has directly asked his opinion of the civil rights movement and he realized that he couldn't disparage it so clearly, so he had to backpedal? Because let's be honest, Jorp doesn't have a high opinion of civil rights for anyone but straight, white, Christian men. Remember his stance that MLK should've focused on his marriage instead of civil rights?

I don’t remember if I ever had that particular stupid view (I probably did) as a teenager, but I did have a lot of stupid ideas in my teens that fell apart under the slightest scrutiny. Some because I said them aloud and was made to confront them, others that kind of toppled like dominoes once I actually started internalizing that I was just a stupid teenager who hadn’t figured out the world nearly as much as I thought I did. Jorp being a man in his fifties and having never encountered that thought, internally or externally is frankly embarrassing even before you factor in his career as an ideological preacher. That he feebly backpedals and then immediately purges the thought rather than take even a second to re-examine his worldview means any concession he made on-camera is worthless. If there was anything in that reaction that deserves credit, he would not have carried on his lifelong crusade, and even then, he’d still be a total idiot.
