It's almost as if even regular young people can see that Rogan's show is a prototype of how to normalize stupidity and give platforms to manipulative grifters. Medical misinformation, not-so-subtle right wing agenda (read: anti-science, anti-LGBTQ, or at least the willingness to platform people with those views) and giving safe space to regressive "common sense" type debate. Panty melting shit, that.
"You just need to float in my tank, bro. It's filled with rhino blood and gorilla jizz. Man you right up."
IDK if I'd come to that conclusion since 45% don't consider it a turn off.
a) how many women simply don't know him, or don't know him well enough to warrant an instant turn off?
b) how many women see it as a red flag, but are willing to give the benefit of the doubt?
Surveys like these are always a bit tricky, because you often don't actually see the phrasing of the questions and you also can't see, what the thought process was behind coming to a yes/no conclusion.
But then how do you account for the fact that he was a very large Bernie Sanders supporter? He is also against the polarization of America.
Additionally, he has called out that nearly 19 of the top 20 Facebook Christian pages were actually fronts for Russian information operations to divide America.
The more our adversaries make us hate each other and dehumanize people we disagree with, the more they succeed.
Both the PRC and Russia are doing active information operations on the US based on what has been going on. They want division. They are making us give up our faith in democracy.
Why does it have to be an all or nothing judgment on an individual?
Why can't we be more nuanced?
Have you actually finished any of his episodes or are you operating off of what someone else told you? I figure you aren't going to openly admit to that because it goes counter to your argument.
If you haven't already seen it I would recommend the video Johnny Harris, a YouTube journalist, gives an in depth take on Joe Rogan. He is critical of Joe Rogan on some aspects. Here is the video:

I don't agree that he hosts some conspiracy theorists on his shown but does that make him a bad person? No.
