My afternoon giggle. 😆

he's a gd "birther" and a freaking Liar..

I literally laughed out loud.

Who gets excited enough to advertise the support of a birther along with the other baggage that person has?

I require more than one tweet from a comedian before I label him a birther.

A Birther too, just like Trump. Ugh!

Ron Paul AND Gary Johnson.

reached him somehow. Not sure why that is such a bad thing.

try with the false equivalence again. Not a last ditch response when one has nothing to respond with whatsoever


But here's a thought experiment: Imagine if any RWer who shills Breitbart articles was to endorse either of them.

The cries of "PROOF SHE'S REPUBLICAN LITE" would be deafening on Twitter.

But not so much with Sanders.

Sad that so many people can be duped by a few who want to make money from them

If we only have people who have never said anything stupid or offensive in their lives voting for us, then we are going to lose in a landslide. Obviously I don't condone his birther post (apparently that based on some book editor who somehow wrote that Obama was born in Kenya in a bio, WTF, I hope that person got fired). But I do want his independent audience to vote for Democrats rather than Republicans.

would want to embrace that endorsement?

I mean I don’t know because he changes. I think he’s more in a class by himself and has followers. Not a criticism. Just my impression.

You are judged by the people who support you, Bernie.

joe rogan's endorsement.

Link to tweet

You know, the one where he explains that the picture he posted was something made by someone that worked for Obama. He was making a point about that.

Never mind, though. I know why you don't explain the point Rogan was making. It doesn't fit your narrative.

But do go on.

they can read your mind on the INTERNET.. 'cause.. agenda.

Snopes verified that the pamphlet was a real thing.

That wouldn't pass muster here on DU, would it? One would have been told to find a source that wasn't RW racist, neo-nazi owned sewage for consumption by RWers, and not promote that shit where progressive, intelligent people converse, and called a Freeper troll. And rightly so.

Now, since, as you pointed out it was factual, wouldn't Rogan have had a wealth of other sources to tweet out?

Such as Snopes?

But snopes says it is authentic.

I know you want to paint the guy as another David Duke with this tweet but that just isn't what was going on. But, hey, carry on.

Sort of evidence he's a fan of said source, isn't it?

So it isn't so much now that he was a birther (since it's clear that he was doing a bit on something someone on Obama's staff wrote), NOW it's because he linked to Breitbart.

It's almost like you are just looking for a way to shit on Rogan since he endorsed Sanders.

It is laughable.

The author of the OP, maybe?

I pointed out the Breitbart link from the get go. YOU were the one who kept defending the credibility of what he was sharing - which was not a Snopes fact check....but... wait for it....

An article from Breitbart.



It's almost like you are just looking for a way defend the conservative bigoted shit that Rogan spouts for a living, including promoting on twitter a Brietbart piece that wouldn't last two minutes on DU, since he endorsed Sanders.



Next.

and I don't think it does.

It was a bit. And the pamphlet is verified as authentic by snopes.

Clearly I know nothing about you that isn't DU.

But next time you want to post about someone being a BerniBro or other nonsense, you might want to remember your line of not knowing anything about someon.

I admit I don't know anything other than your DU persona.

I'm confused now. I was pretty sure you didn't like him. You really are an enigma.

You are the one that said I didn't know anything when I said you didn't like Rogan. So...

ETA: I also learned that I don't think you know what "keep digging" means.

Really want to go there?



Dig away - you're going to need a bigger shovel at this rate.

Me trying to have a discussion about whether someone can know someone on the internet is bad.

Someone else just responding to me with "YOU DON'T KNOW ME" is not problematic at all.

If anyone here is needling, it's not me. I actually have had a dialogue about who this person is and if I know anything. The other in thins instance has added NOTHING to the discussion despite my efforts to dig deeper into the subject.

Finally, I look forward to you going after others on this board that needle. (Hint: you won't.)

Attacked so ruthelessly!

You don't know me? Don't think that's a strawman.
Me saying I did know that person's DU persona? That's not a strawman.
You not going after people that actually do needle on here? Also not a strawman.

You are going to need to be more clear with the claim you are making and be sure to provide enough data to support that claim. Pro Tip: If one is making a claim of a fallacy, you are likely going to have to make the warrant overt and not assume it is clear.

I told you what I thought wasn't a strawman. Please feel free to refute that with an actually argument and not some passive-aggressive "needling" emoji.

So, again, what's the strawman you are talking about?

Dems doesn't just dislike Joe Rogan, she despises him and all like him including ( Nazi) Richard Spencer.

Birtherism is suddenly cool and trendy.

Not that Bernie ever had any respect for and admiration for President Obama. He wanted to primary him in 2012.

NOBODY.

Idiot like joe rogan.

Link to tweet

What do they say? If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, swims like a duck...?

Stop it. It makes you look desperate.

There are a lot of things to go after Rogan about. This isn't one of them.

Several times. You have responded to the posts that explain it. I'm sure you can find them and reread.

It's all explained in this thread.

He isn't even remotely political. That's one tweet from 8 years ago. Knowing Joe, probably in response to a guest, story or some beautiful sarcasm. What he didn't do is vote for a war that killed 300k civilians. Your outrage is noted

or many years ago.. if he didn't think it he shouldn't have tweeted it..

and the pamphlet said he was born in Kenya. Yes, Rogan linked to a Brietbart site, but I believe it was confirmed that this was written by someone working for Obama and was clearly a mistake. Rogan was riffing on the mistake.

he spews...all the time...shame on Sanders.

Link to tweet

It was corrected long before the first tweet from Rogan and the second after he was called out for his birtherism.

The correction:

What supporting evidence do you have outside one tweet?

the fantastic shoes and Kathy Griffin. They were smeared by the republicans with half truths and lies. I require more proof before I accept he is a birther. Asshole yes. Before I brand any comedian a birther I require more than one tweet from them.

You keep posting it, but it never shows anything but more unsupported claims.

Much like this whole thread.

He claims they asked to be on, Biden and Warren campaigns deny, the Buttigeg campaign didn't comment. That's it.

Then you added on a bunch of wild accusations that you refuse to back up, adn you have not at all answered my actual question.

Either back them up or admit you're wrong.

It's sad this has gone on this long.

on DU. But should you say something that is awkward they’ll alert on you in a second.

Gracias, LA!

Who is the Democrat?

I don’t know of any birthers on the Dem side, but if there are, by golly, I won’t vote for them either.

It was another example of very poor judgment for sanders to tout/promote this endorsement. sanders has shown some very poor judgment with hiring and not firing Sirota and stein supporters

But yeah - fuck that guy. Sanders needs to tell him to be quiet. He'll hurt him in the GE with black voters.
