Have any black UFC fighters commented on Joe Rogan’s racist comments?

[cburm]

Do i think hes still racist no but the ignorance and disresepect was enough for me nor i associate with anybody that uses the word blk brn yw idc what youre nationality is. To say its fine to use cause dumbass uneducated black people use it is fuckin stuipid if i was full white id feel disrespected hearing it too anybody who says it must think a white person is a racist cause they cant say it huh...

Should be illegal if anybody uses it

You say "they" when it's Joe Rogan's show.
He has full creative control over his show, and Spotify can't tell him what to do with it.
Again, you keep ignoring the obvious that he ACTUALLY stopped saying the N word, feels sorry about it, and doesn't want that kind of content up anymore.

You also ignore the fact that COVID talk is clearly the more dangerous topic to talk about, and the one he has gotten the most heat for, and yet, he hasn't apologized for most of what he's said.

Please share what he said that is wrong. Here is the best review I've seen of how it started and what the real facts are.

Its more about how joe would use the n***er word openly and told a story describing all the blk folk as apes

Nobody cares. People only pretend to care.

This. I think TS is forgetting that these guys and gals are fighters, if they have a problem with Rogan, he would get slapped.

Not gonna lie, I was a bit disappointed because besides his podcast, which I enjoy, I like the guy as a person. I don't know what it is but their is a segment of his fanbase that are racist.

His fanbase is rather large. It's like saying you're disappointed in Biden because he has racist in his fan base. You think you can have millions of Mary Sues in a fan base? Perfect beings of enlightenment? No bro this is earth.

You have some cliff notes of that, or something more specific?
I listened to about 5 mins, but I can only listen to so much of Dore.

I don't dislike Rogan. I actually like him. I don't listen to his podcast as much as I used to, but I've listened to his show for over a decade. It was easy to have on in the background when he was on Youtube.
I'm not claiming he is right wing , or only has on right wing guests.
And MSM, Fauci, or Biden being shitty doesn't erase the valid criticism of Rogan's show.
I'm not making a comparison of the two. There are some obvious issues with how both of them present information. It seems like Dore is trying to making it a comparison of the two.
The Robert Malone and McCollough episodes were full of blatant misinformation , lies, and conspiracy theories if you were looking for something that is wrong though.

Keep in mind, Joe had already stopped using the word YEARS ago and had acknowledged that he would no longer use the word - not due to a pressure campaign - but on his own accord. His reasons for using it wasn't "because black people use it" he was coming from some stoner perspective of it just being sounds you make with your mouth and didn't think it made sense to ban sounds you make with your mouth, but he changed his perspective and understood it's harm so he stopped.

CLIFFS:

Joe claimed young men have a higher level of Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart) among the vaccinated. He guest shared a link that showed that those that caught CV-19 had a greater percentage as well, and even greater than the vaccinated, so taking the vaccine is alright. Joe was interested and rethought his position.

Then another doctor came later and shared that Joe's claim was right for some younger age groups and that he was not wrong after all.

 

[Snubnoze707]

Have you even watched the full discussion where this came from? He made a bad joke - immediately admitted it sounded racist - then went on to tell a POSSITIVE story about black people and how good of an experience he had. Context matters.

Ah, I'll have to look into that one more later on. It's late where I'm at, and I'd need to read and watch the video then.
I only heard about that show with the Myocarditis claim, but I didn't see it myself.
My issue with Joe is more about the guests he bring on that misinform, and his lack of vetting them, or doing his own research so that he'd be able to properly interview them.
Joe tends to have on doctors that agree with him. But ill check it out later.

I'm a person of color and I wasn't outraged. I personally listened to him say that word live plenty of times and it's only bad when you take it out of context. In context there was nothing bad about it.

Why do you think some people get outraged when a white person says the n-word even in a non-racist context?

It seems to me that this way of thinking exposes a deep resentment towards those who look like those who oppressed and enslaved others. But I don't see how that is any less "racist" than other forms of racial profiling. Because someone looks a certain way they shouldn't have to tip-toe around and try not to trigger people... black men deal with that crap all the time, having to be extra polite and what-not to not intimidate racist white people.

I have no idea. A lot of this is just because of the internet and it's the thing to do now. It gives people attention and power over others. I've never had an issue with anyone using that word in an appropriate context and I got into a lot of fights in school with people calling me that. Singing a song and using it? Retelling a joke? I don't care about that. Basically if your not trying to disrespect\insult someone I don't see the issue.

There's history of whites being called cracker, honky, etc... I assure you 99% don't give a shit.

Not sure if serious... Did those "cracker "honky" need civil laws amended for them ? Did they have to worry about being hanged from street poles ? Or slashed with whips for disobeying ? Not allowed to vote, consider less than a dog? Not allowed education for hundred of years. Have law enforcement on their side.. the list goes on.

Those words are nowhere near the word of the N word. I don't agree with anyone making bigotry or racist comments to any race regardless. That's ignorant.

 

[kenetics]

Where am I relying on athletes and celebrities to do anything for me? What kind of drugs are you on dude?

Because you're complaining about them buying or supporting china when in fact you do the same.

So until you stop buying things from China no one cares about what you have to say, lead by example.

The answer to your question is yes. Everyone's ancestors of every race suffered horrific hardships, slavery and discrimination. The common theme amongst those who focus so heavily on past racial issues is that they are miserable and have a cynical view of the world. Maybe if people would quit dwelling on the past, they'd be a lot happier. Just a thought.

Lol you completely missed the point. Again, which drugs are you on sir?

 

[SBJJ]

Should probably change the thread title to....

Have any black fighters NOT come out in support of Rogan.

 

[Willy Knuckles]

you mean people that think your skin color determines what you're allowed to say and not to say?

that's pretty racist actually

It seems people like you are un able to provide context to this conversation. You just dumb shit down to a point where your silly Lil mind can comprehend. There's more to it though.

you wanna talk about context but you're calling a person of wrong skin color racist for uttering a word he apparently not allowed to regardless of context....

you have no self awareness kid

im sure anyone with a viewership that large would have people with questionable views.
