The Jimmy Dore Show (2024.10.28)

Thanks for sharing.

I heard author/researcher Nick Begich say recently on C2C that the COVID crisis of a few years ago did a lot to polarize politics in America - and I'd have to admit that seems true. Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones and Russell Brand were all very suspicious of the vaccine mandates surrounding the COVID situation, and it appears that people who tended to be anti-vaccine gravitated naturally towards right-wing politics, for some reason (even though Brand is not even American and used to be very liberal). Every conspiracy-related forum and site, even shows like Coast to Coast AM, have a 60-75% Republican dominant audience, that are all anti-vaccine etc. I guess that's just the demographics of it all.

I find it puzzling still, because like David Icke, I usually try to transcend right VS left politics, and try to be somewhere in the middle - and Icke keeps saying all of this political divisiveness is a distraction from larger issues, but has become so popular, as to be "viral" in nature. Which is definitely true. This is like a sports competition where everyone is placing their bets, and somehow the entire future of the planet itself hangs in the balance. I've never actually seen anything like it before! :0 :S

Now, will Rogan do an interview with Harris - a plus for his interviewing/podcast career. Or decline doing one - a political statement....
