Awesome. While you're at it can you convince Jordan Peterson to permanently move down to Texas with you? We'd love to get rid of that shit.

Honestly, most Canadians are more ashamed of Peterson than Bieber and that's a fucking accomplishment.

Fuck no, he's yours to keep. We're full on crazies, especially in Texas!

Push them into Florida and then evict Florida into the abyss.

Did you see that alien post, they beamed up a cow, because a human called them 'grass puppers'. So hilarious. Do you have a favorite breed? I love them all.

Joe Rogan said he will not visit Canada. It is a great day for Canada, and therefore, the world.

Sounds like this Canadien policy might just be working as intended.

There is free speech and hate speech, and we don't allow one of them... never have, never will, and that's not Trudeau, that's us being Canadians, being kind, and taking care of each other, and that's what makes us different from Americans.

[-] Ismay@programming.dev 55 points 3 months ago

Well I guess we can thank Trudeau for that 😁

Stop giving this brain damaged cretin the attention he craves

[-] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 46 points 3 months ago

Joe Rogan probably has a DUI on his record or something like that that prohibits him from entering Canada.

I knew this lady who went to the same saloon in Seattle that I frequented. Anyways she was a Canadian citizen but she got a DUI in the USA and she couldn't go home until she did the requirements for entry.

[-] Shadow@lemmy.ca 36 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Uh, CBSA can't refuse you if you're a Canadian citizen for an American DUI. She definitely wasn't a full Canadian if she had to do anything.

It's in our charter of Rights.

Thanks, that makes it even more funny. She was a funny lady but yeah, did drink a bit much.

He is free to stay right where he is. Canada doesn't need him.

[-] Pronell@lemmy.world 39 points 3 months ago

Ah yes, the free speech of blocking highways with semi trucks.

From the "It's okay to run over protestors" crowd. That's speech to them too.

[-] Grant_M@lemmy.ca 34 points 3 months ago

Good. Rogan is shit

[-] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 31 points 3 months ago

Congratulations, Canada. Keep that trash out of your beautiful country

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 31 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I don't listen/watch Rogan anymore but I'm assuming the erosion of women's rights and project 2025 and voting rates and seizure of the supreme court has gotten him up in arms about his own country right? /s

[-] greenshirtdenimjeans@sh.itjust.works 28 points 3 months ago

How often did Rogan go to Canada anyway? He probably had no immediate plans to visit. As soon as someone offers him money to perform, this alpha dog will cross the border. He’s all talk like every other loud mouth idiot.

I'm sure Canada is devastated by this terrible, terrible news.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 3 months ago

Oh no! Anyway...

[-] Omega_Jimes@lemmy.ca 22 points 3 months ago

If he thinks we're far into the erosion of individual rights now, wait till he hears about our Conservatives!

[-] MapleEngineer@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 months ago

The funny thing is that Americans think that guns and hate speech make them the freest country in the world.

Well that should give Trudeau a nice boost in popularity, I'm guessing. I'm relatively sure we're not crying in our Molson Canadians because a 'roided out douche isn't going to come here.

Canada won't let Proud Boys nor Hells Angels across the border as they are declared terrorist organizations or somesuch.

This is Rogan showing out for them.

[-] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 21 points 3 months ago

He’s not welcome here either.

What exactly is he talking about? Which law prohibits the specific 'free speech' he is referring to?

[-] MapleEngineer@lemmy.ca 23 points 3 months ago

"Free speech" is a right wing dog whistle for hate speech.

[-] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

“They can come down on you for a lot of things. They seized up the bank accounts for people who were protesting, the truckers. People who were donating to the truckers, they seized their bank accounts,” Rogan said.

I don't know what "a lot of things" is gesturing at, maybe he doesn't either. Use of payments censorship to shut down protests without legal proceedings is legitimately worrying, though this is something right wing commentators tend to fixate on to the exclusion of the same stuff when used against people who aren't their audience. Here's an article that I think has a good perspective on this.

All these cases happen somewhere distant to a person in the US or Canada, so could it be that the Truckers struck a nerve because this was the first time that citizens of a democratic Western nation were subject to payments oppression? The answer is no. Cashless payments censorship has a long and established tradition in Western countries. It’s just that it’s not recognized because it’s been focussed on marginalized groups such as welfare recipients.

It's not like he's wanted up here anyway.

[-] EnderMB@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

I don't really get the point of Joe Rogan any more.

As a comedian, he's okay? He's probably no better than over a dozen other comics, and his appeal seems to be limited to a certain demographic nowadays.

As a commentator on MMA, many in combat sports doubt his ability to commentate compared to other, more experienced analysts. Some of his takes are outright biased or bizarre, and while he'd undoubtedly kick most people's ass, he's apparently not that active in grappling any more due to injuries.

That leaves the podcast...which probably has a lifespan that won't outlast his other grifts. Once the comedy work dries up, the MAGA love-in is gone, and he stops working for UFC I don't really see what's left to prop his name up.
