It all started on Tuesday, when a moderator for r/JoeRogan wrote that “all political posts are now banned on r/JoeRogan.”

“Today we are making the decision to ban all political posts indefinitely,” the explanation read. “After careful consideration, internal discussion and tons of external feedback we have collectively decided that r/joerogan is not the place for politics anymore.”

That post was not received well. One contributor wrote, “Every reddit mod is a hall monitor dork, change my mind. Youre banning the topic he talks about the most. You guys are hypocrites and anti free speech. If you cant mod effectively then go paint your warhammer figurines and let someone else do it.”

    I’m surprised that particular group of people could possibly get more confused.

      Last i check the joe rogan subreddit were fans of the old 2016-2020 joe back when he supported bernie sanders and wasnt full on right wing grifter.

      that subreddit was basically making fun of what joe became last i checked it in 2023. My hunch is the “no political posts” means there’s been a takeover to try and make the sub “pro rogan” right wing.
