Its a little deeper than that, but thats where we are...
Joe was a pretty liberal guy for the first 7 or 8 years of his podcast.
During the 2016 presidential race, he had bernie on, and the MSM clipped that interview in such a way that would make bernie look bad. This led to two major turning points for Joe becoming right wing. Left wing people saw Joe as a liability for their career, but Joe has always been willing to talk to just about anyone, which led to the right wing (intellectual dark web faggots) creeping into his circle.
He became isolated from most politically Left personalities and was embraced by the right. This, combined with a lifetime of appreciation for athletes, fighters, and more recently military men, along with his affiliation with Dana White, were a massive anchor dragging him to the right. Once he moved to Texas, it was game over.
None of this excuses his particular level of retardation. Its just a brief explanation of someone who appreciated him when I was a young man, and grew to be ashamed of him, aswell as all the retards who have only got into him in the last 7 years.
He introduced me to people who taught me quite a bit. My book shelf basically began because of guests he had on his podcast back in the day.
