New Joe Rogan Firestorm as Podcaster Chimes in on What It Means to Be Black

[DigitalDrifter]

As for the discussion of Michael Eric Dyson, dude has always looked a bit white to me, therefore if there is "white privilege", he's living it.

Fresh off of one controversy involving legendary singer Neil Young and Spotify, Joe Rogan finds himself at the center of another. The popular podcast host talked about what it means to be Black in a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience.

On Tuesday, while speaking to author and psychology professor Jordan Peterson, the topic of race came up. Rogan began by bringing up Peterson's odd career trajectory and how he went from university professor to worldwide fame in his late 40s. Rogan mentions how Peterson is such a polarizing figure, where he's either loved or hated by people for his work.

A drop of black blood makes him black.
But more than anything....he talks like a liberal and votes like one.
Being authentically black means acting a specific way and voting a specific way.

He's not.
He's a Democrat that hasn't gone completely nuts.

Dyson is light-skinned so his life matters less.

Well, he's following the Maher model.... Every 3 months or so he'll say something ridiculous that will get mouse clicks and attention.

Such is the life of an out of work actor who has a gig in another line of work.

As opposed to CNN or MSNBC who says something ridiculous everyday?
