Joe Rogan, host of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” laughed at leftists during a new episode this week over their claims that they will leave Twitter over a lack of censorship.
Rogan made the remarks while talking to musician Suzanne Santo about Elon Musk becoming the social media company’s new CEO after his acquisition was finalized last week.
“Have you been paying attention to Twitter, how Twitter’s now fact-checking all Biden statements?” Rogan said. “Every time Biden says something and posts it on Twitter, Twitter’s like nope, actually, that’s not true. Like this is, this is inaccurate.”
“What I cannot understand is people being like, I’m leaving Twitter because without censorship this will be the death of democracy,” Santo responded. “Are you f***ing serious? Like, how dumb?”
Rogan erupted in laughter.
“It’s wild. But it’s also a thing you’re supposed to say, ‘I’m leaving Twitter because Elon Musk is evil,’” Rogan said of woke people. “Yeah, like having him run Twitter, I think is gonna be great. I think it’s gonna be very interesting.”
“You don’t have to worry about getting f***ing banned for cracking jokes anymore,” Rogan continued. “It’s just nice to have a guy who’s like a tech billionaire who has an opposing perspective and is a free speech hardliner because I think that’s important. The fact that he, you know, literally put his money where his mouth is, and purchased the biggest social media platform in the world, pretty f***ing wild.”

TRANSCRIPT:
JOE ROGAN: Have you been paying attention to Twitter, how Twitter’s now fact-checking all of Biden statements?
SUZANNE SANTO: Good.
ROGAN: So every time Biden says something and posts it on Twitter, Twitter’s like nope, actually, that’s not true. Like this is, this is inaccurate.
SANTO: But they’re doing it for everybody, too, it’s not just him. Which is, which is fair.
ROGAN: Which is what it should be.
SANTO: But what I cannot understand is people being like, I’m leaving Twitter because without censorship this will be the death of democracy. Are you f***ing serious? Like, how dumb?
ROGAN: It’s wild. But it’s also a thing you’re supposed to say, “I’m leaving Twitter because Elon Musk is evil.” And then like, “Yay, he said the right thing.” Yeah, like having him run Twitter, I think is gonna be great. I think it’s gonna be very interesting.
SANTO: Twitter’s funny again. There’s, like, all these great jokes.
ROGAN: Yeah, you don’t have to worry about getting f***ing banned for cracking jokes anymore.
SANTO: Yeah, it’s, oh boy.
ROGAN: It’s just nice to have a guy who’s like a tech billionaire who has an opposing perspective and is a free speech hardliner because I think that’s important. The fact that he, you know, literally put his money where his mouth is, and purchased the biggest social media platform in the world, pretty f***ing wild.
SANTO: Well, there’s some sort of saving grace with this, like, anti-cancel culture thing that’s happening, like, sure fact check. That’s great. But give people room to f*** up, give people room to say, “Hey, I’m sorry, I said the wrong thing and let me just apologize. And I’ll do better. I’ll try better next time.”
ROGAN: Human beings are very messy. You know, and depending upon who you, you’re a different person every day. Every day you’re slightly different, every day–
