Leftist Cenk Uygur went on a bizarre and angry rant in which he claimed that Joe Rogan has a personal “hatred” of transgender people because he had sex with them and now allegedly has deep regrets. “The Young Turks” host also wants to know “how much of a groomer and pedophile is Joe Rogan?”
During Wednesday’s episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, Rogan skewered people who find the word “groomer” offensive.
Rogan posed a question to people offended by the term groomer, “Do you not like it because you don’t want children to be groomed, or do you not like it cause it’s a pejorative that’s used against the left? Which I think is more likely.”
Rogan emphasized, “Here’s what’s more important — not have people groom your f***ing kids. That’s what’s more important than you getting uncomfortable with this word because it’s used by people on the right.”
Rogan wondered, “And how many of those people are doing it under the guise of ‘I’m an LGBTQ educator’?”
“There’s people who are good people in all walks of life,” Rogan declared. “Trans people, gay people, straight people, bisexual, whatever the f*** you are. There’s good people in all walks of life. There’s also pieces of s**t that will use those labels in order to get closer to groups of people and indoctrinate them. Indoctrinate them for their own sexual pleasure. That’s real.”
“The Young Turks” hosts Ana Kasparian and Uygur reacted to Rogan’s opinion by outlandishly questioning whether he had sex with transgender people and whether he is a pedophile.
“Joe Rogan doesn’t understand why some people would have a problem with the usage of the word groomer, as the right wing in America incessantly uses that type of terminology to inaccurately describe people they disagree with,” Kasparian asserted, then claimed Rogan “apparently loves to provide cover for right-wingers.”
“So as you guys can see, Joe Rogan went on a rampage because he had a right-winger sitting across from him,” Kasparian proclaimed. “So of course, he had to get down on his knees and fellate him, as he usually does when he has right-wingers on his podcast.”
In the “Joe Rogan Experience” episode in question, Rogan spoke to Gad Saad – a Canadian evolutionary behavioral scientist, professor at Concordia University, and author.
However, Saad has described himself thusly: “I’m neither a Democrat nor a Republican (I’m Canadian). I’m neither a Liberal nor a Conservative. I’m a person who is driven by a set of foundational values and ideals. Accordingly, my political positions are based on adherence to those ideals, which I construe as congruent with my two definitional ideas of truth and freedom.”
Uygur took it further by saying that Rogan hates transgender people because he is allegedly insecure about being sexually attracted to trans individuals. Uygur urged any transgender people who had sex with Rogan to contact him.
“By the way, if you’re the trans person or several people that slept with Joe Rogan, can you let us know? Because it’s obvious that it’s personal for him,” Uygur asserted. “Okay, Joe, you slept with a person like that. There’s nothing wrong with it! Get over it! Get over it, Joe! It’s super obvious that you’re super into trans people. And you’re taking it out, your hatred of yourself, on them, and you’re making their life dangerous.”
The unsubstantiated, potential accusations against Rogan by Uygur continued.
Uygur asked, “Look, given that Joe Rogan seems to be purposely blaming people who didn’t do it, I wonder if he’s covering up for things he did as a distraction?”
Uygur ranted, “Maybe that’s why he’s blaming gay people in general for things they didn’t ever do. I mean, you probably maybe have a guilty conscience, and you probably want somebody to look somewhere else.”
He lashed out, “It does make you really wonder, is Joe Rogan a groomer? Has he done this to little children?”
Kasparian chimed in, “We’re just wondering if you’re a groomer.”
Uygur stated, “I don’t know how many children Joe Rogan might have molested. I don’t know what the number is. I don’t know if it’s in the dozens. I don’t know why he’s covering it up so much, but people have a right to know how much of a groomer and pedophile is Joe Rogan? I don’t know. We’ll have to find out.”
Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald shared a video clip of “The Young Turks” on Twitter with the caption: “Cenk Uygur is on a hunt for trans people that he is fantasizing had sex with Joe Rogan, and urging these trans people to contact Cenk and tell him all about it.”
There were thousands of Twitter reactions to the video clip, many mocking Uygur and his assertions about Rogan.
Journalist Brad Polumbo noted, “This is extremely bizarre behavior.”
Comedian Yannis Pappas asked, “Your assertion being, If you sleep with a trans woman that means you must support them competing in high level women’s sports even if they transitioned a year ago?”
Journalist Jon Levine tweeted, “This is basically left-wing Alex Jones.”
Last October, Uygur attempted to rattle the cage by claiming he would “end” Joe Rogan if they got into a physical fight. That opinion was also widely mocked.
