Summary

Former Ukrainian boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko accused podcaster Joe Rogan of “repeating Russian propaganda” after Rogan criticized U.S. military aid to Ukraine and suggested it could escalate into World War III.

Klitschko defended Ukraine’s resistance against Russia, highlighting the country’s fight for freedom and condemning Rogan’s remarks as aiding Putin’s agenda.

He invited Rogan to discuss their differences on the podcast “like free men.”

Rogan, who recently endorsed Donald Trump, called the war a “proxy war” and criticized Biden’s decision to allow Ukraine to strike Russian soil with U.S.-supplied missiles.

    He went from supporting Bernie Sanders to being a fascist bootlicker of the most anti-worker administration ever.

      I wouldn’t do what Rogan has done as a response but I don’t blame people for being disillusioned with the way Bernie was treated either. All the bad stuff people say about Trump is true but he wasn’t the one that did everything in his power to prevent a progressive with grassroots support from getting the nomination to run for president. That was all the DNC. They shouldn’t be surprised to see backlash to that kind of treatment. Obviously it would have been much better for everyone if that backlash had occurred when Republicans were running a relatively sane candidate but here we are.

        Yea Rogan and a good amount of Trump-supporters don’t care about his policies, he’s just a vessel for them to wreck the system so it can be built anew, without fptp-voting and with laws applied equally. Many of them expect a civil war because they’re revolutionaries but since that word is associated with the radical left they don’t actually use it, they just prep and vote for whatever nutjobs the current system enables to exist, in their minds bringing them closer to eating the rich and “fixing” the system, king or no king.
