    Also weird that his Twitter has no tweets from 2016 until March of this year when he retweets something about the Fall of Rome.

    Chronically online dorks posting things like 'we're like animals just like everything else on this planet, except we've forgotten the law of the jungle' is why this whole thing has been insufferable.

    Put me on the jury please.

    Tbh I’m less concerned about his other views so much or him being a right wing troll or whatever. If anything it solidifies my thoughts that across the political spectrum, the vast majority of us hate our healthcare system, and are more aligned on anti-capitalist/anti-corporation views, and that is where the Democratic Party should be centered on

    I mostly agree with you and it's one thing I noticed on the Theo Von interview with Bernie is that Theo was railing really hard against insurance companies and medical debt. I saw some clips from his Cuban interview and he said the same thing there too.

    I will say though after that brief stroll through his Twitter, he definitely gives off that right wing/right wing adjacent, slightly manosphere podcast bro that a lot of guys his age have become. From that porn tweet to his retweet on psychedelics being the most important mental health treatment. That is totally that Rogie/Huberman/Friedman podcast/crypto bro space.

    Yeah I am getting kind of a Redditbrained radical centrist pseudo-intellectual vibe from the guy. Basically the archetypical Lex Friedman listener. Not that it matters. Actions speak louder than weird online political personas.

    Just fun to flex my online political archetype knowledge. I will be honest I was 100% expecting him to be Chomsky and Zizek reading Twitter leftist.

    Internet theory is that the spine picture on his Twitter header is his, lines up with his books on back issues. Theory then goes that he may have had issues with UHC from that injury/health issue.

    Hate this is from a Barstool guy but the best tweet I could find on it.

    As soon as the backpack-filled-with-monopoly money story came out, a friend of mine called that he’d be a Reddit guy.

    There is a thread on the Rogan subreddit where they are all realizing that all his Twitter follows are almost exactly like there's are had me laughing.
