Rogan is a great example of a few things:

  • The Dunning-Kruger effect

  • “I’m just asking questions” being used as an excuse to host an unbalanced number of individuals purporting one specific worldview

  • Toxic masculinity posing as intellectualism

He is extremely popular with one particular demographic. That demographic tends to share the toxic masculinity and the Dunning-Kruger-fueled belief that they can be experts at everything from the armchair.

“I’m just asking questions”

Glenn Beck was (is?) big on that one too.

Yes, and Tucker Carlson. It’s kind of a thing.

The difference is that Beck and Carlson are actually more straightforward with regards to how they lean. Rogan always suggests he’s a centrist, sometimes even suggesting he is apolitical, which is patently false.
