‘Micro-Cults’: Gavin Newsom Is Terrified That His Son Is Listening To Joe Rogan And Jordan Peterson
Daily Caller ^ | 2023 | Ilan Hulkower

Posted on 11/17/2024 1:23:03 AM PST by CondoleezzaProtege

Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California expressed concern during a recent interview about his son’s interest in right-leaning figures like Joe Rogan, Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson.

Newsom spoke to Bloomberg for an interview published Sept. 7, in which he focused on the topics of AI and its implications for governance.

During the interview, the outlet asked Newsom whether he had talked to his children about potential issues surrounding AI.

“I had a very serious conversation with my oldest daughter about the chatbots on Snap,” Newsom responded, before pivoting to a discussion of his son’s interest in online content creators that many Democrats denounce as dangerous right-wing extremists.

“I really worry about these micro-cults that my kids are in,” the governor told Bloomberg. “I say micro-cults because I don’t know if there’s a better way to describe it. My son is asking me about Andrew Tate, Jordan Petersen [sic]. And then immediately he’s talking about Joe Rogan. And I’m like, here it is, the pathway.”

Andrew Tate is a masculinity influencer and former professional kickboxer facing charges in Romania for rape and human trafficking, Joe Rogan hosts the popular interview podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience” and Jordan Peterson is a clinical psychologist and the author of “12 Rules For Life.”

All three have been widely accused of radicalizing young men by turning them away from progressive values.

Gavin Newsom of California expressed concern during a recent interview about his son’s interest in right-leaning truth-telling figures like Joe Rogan, Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson.

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

-- Jesus, quoted by John (8:44)

Well, Gavin, with the lack of a male figure at home, they’re bound to look outside for someone to show them how to be a man.

If only you weren’t such a pansy, Gavin, maybe you could help them.

"And then immediately he’s talking about Joe Rogan. And I’m like, here it is, the pathway.”

You mean, Gavin, your son doesn't think these men are good role models?

Notice how that Islamic moron Tate is conservative and placed alongside sane people like Rogan and Peterson?
Smooth scam there in the article.

Disregard everything that comes out of Newsoms mouth. He is now on a sculpted mission to win an election. He will pretend to be following intelligent thought. But he is a weathervane who will embrace whatever position which will get him the most votes in 2028. A most odious man.
The best predictor of what will happen in the future is what occurred in the past.
Newsom started SF ruination, is currently ruining California. He will do the exact same as President

Progressives have become old fogeys, angry at their children for rebelling into personal responsibility, respect for truth, love of country, and traditional sex roles.

These are potential gateways to far worse things, like watching War Room, listening to conservative radio and podcasts, watching Fox News, wearing a MAGA cap and voting for J.D. Vance, going to church as an actual believer, and then getting married and homeschooling the kids.

Newsome has nightmares of one day being asked by an angelic six year old grand daughter, "Pop-Pop, why are you such an America hating Commie?"

Instead of emulating Trump, who asked Baron to navigate and suggest the good podcast for him, Newsom response was concerned that his kids were exposed to different views... oh, the horror!

So, Gavin Newsom has an intelligent son who's NOT a WOKE snowflake or a sexual weirdo? Gavin should be celebrating not coming up with 'Newspeak' stupid phrases for the left to toss around.
