In a video clip posted on Reddit, Joe Rogan was seen making fun of Serena Williams’ marriage to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. Apparently, Joe was shocked to hear that Serena was married to Alexis via Essentially Sports;
In a clip from ‘The Fight Companion’, which was later posted on Reddit, Rogan sat down alongside Brendan Schaub and Bryan Callen and talked about the tennis star. Schaub asked the group if they knew who her partner was. Jamie Vernon, the producer of the show, replied, “He was on here, Alexis Ohanian”. This response shocked Rogan.
Rogan replied, “She’s marrying him? The Reddit guy?”. Schaub replied by saying that she was pregnant with his baby. The voice of UFC then poked fun at Ohanian by making jokes.
Further, Joe Rogan called Ohanian “a nice guy” and said, “but that sh*t is ridiculous.” The group then looked at a picture of the happy couple, to which he asked the question – “That’s incredible. How did he pull that off?”.
The legendary commentator continued poking fun at Ohanian by calling him a “beta” among many other things. The group then compared him to a dragon and comedically made dragon noises to mock him.
It isn’t surprising that Rogan would make these types of remarks knowing the type of person he is.
In every controversy, there is a gain and it can be huge or small depending on the controversy. According to Joe Rogan, he bagged 2 million subscribers during COVID-19 and n-word controversies. So whilst people were angry and bashing him on the internet, they were still subscribing to his channel and listening to him.
I think what people don’t understand is there are a lot more racists in the US than you think. So when a controversy comes out like this if the person is popular enough they can’t be canceled their legend actually grows especially if they lean into the racist tropes.
In any sane society, there is no way a man like Donald Trump should have become President of any country which is why America isn’t as great as some make it out to be.
