Rogan tried explaining it this way … “There’s a video that’s out, that’s a compilation of me saying the n-word. It’s a video that’s made of clips taken out of context of me of 12 years of conversations on my podcast, and it’s all smushed together.”
Rogan said there were times he thought he could use the word during discussions about pop culture … citing Redd Foxx and Richard Pryor , but there’s an obvious difference. Rogan says he was wrong and is regretful.
He says, “Now, I haven’t said it in years, but for a long time, when I would bring that word up, like, if it would come up in conversation and instead of saying the n-word, I would just say the word – I thought as long as it was in context, people would understand what I was doing.”
There’s another clip shot 11 years ago that’s even more problematic … in which Rogan says a taxi driver dropped him off in a black neighborhood in Philly and it was “like they were in ‘Planet of the Apes.’”
Rogan says, “I was just saying there’s a lot of black people there. But, then I went on to talk about what a positive experience it was and how much fun it was to go to see this movie in a black neighborhood.”
The popular podcaster says he will never use the n-word again, calling this “the most regretful and shameful thing that I’ve ever had to talk about publicly.”
He says he hopes this will be a “teachable moment” for others.
Que every white dude who was at Woodstock 99 shouting the N Bomb with DMX coming out with sorry videos
What about drug use? You can find so much shit in almost every his podcast… but some tards do care…
No such thing as Comedy in a few years, or just straight shit talking. LONG LIVE THE UG YOU CUNTS!
Stick a fork in him…Joe is done
That was Joe’s favorite word.
Joe should have just doubled down and said it in his apology
When they decide you gotta go, your past is magnified. When they decide you’re towing the line and/or useful, your past is minimized.
It’s not about right or wrong, good or bad.
Spotify made a mistake acknowledging Niel Young. Should’ve pretended like nothing happened. Next week it’d have been some other news. You can’t touch shit and not expect your hand to smell.
But instead they called his bluff and removed him, triggering a chain reaction.
Then Joe issued a video and now another video.
The best way to win, is not to play. Do, not, acknowledge!
Has nothing to do with ‘right or wrong’ it’s about hive
Mind
Joe shouldn’t have apologized .
Spotify already caved to their woke employee mob by deleting certain episodes this week. That was the beginning of the end.
Until there’s video of him directly calling someone a ni&&er, y’all can shut the fuck up.
Speculation
Crazy how there is one word an entire race can’t say. Even if it’s quoting someone else saying it, while another race uses it all the time. Explain the logic in that.
Spotify getting their monies worthy now. In for a penny in for a pound. They want all the apologies from him. Ouch.
Not that I agree with him saying it, but I agree there’s missed context.
