Joe Rogan “EXPOSING the TERRIFYING Truth on Charlie Kirk”

The Sickness of the Screen: When Did Celebrating Death Become Normal?

The recent events surrounding the alleged “hit” on conservative commentator Charlie Kirk have pulled back the curtain on a deeply disturbing aspect of modern society. It’s not just the shocking nature of the crime itself, but the almost unbelievable reaction from a segment of the public that has left many, including Joe Rogan, asking: “What have we done to people’s minds?”

According to Joe Rogan, who addressed the incident on his show, the act itself was orchestrated by “powerful figures… from the shadows” for their own “dark” agenda (0:15, 5:56). Rogan asserts that what has followed is an even more unsettling reflection of a moral compass completely warped by the internet.

The Media’s Moral Failure

The incident has highlighted a critical breakdown in how information is consumed and distributed. Mainstream media, in Rogan’s view, has “dropped the ball” (0:23), unable to be truly “free” due to the influence of “too many cooks” and corporate interests (0:28-0:41).

In this vacuum, a new, more predatory media culture has emerged.

“Joe was shocked watching how people exploited Charlie Kirk’s death for clicks and attention, calling it a disturbing reflection of how far media culture has fallen” (1:11-1:19).

The chase for that viral “clip” or the immediate, sensationalist take has prioritized short-term income over long-term value and substance, turning a tragedy into a gruesome opportunity for fleeting relevance (0:51-1:04).

The Celebration of Evil

The most profound shock, however, wasn’t the event itself—it was the public reaction.

The immediate, widespread celebration of a person’s death, witnessed both online and, astonishingly, in real-life settings like a public café, reveals a disturbing new low. Rogan and his guests spoke of hearing people “cackling like a witch’s cackle” (3:46-3:57) and openly “clapping publicly” because the “events of the day have made me very happy” (5:05-5:15).

This wasn’t an isolated, fringe response; it was a “wave” of people, including “normal people… housewives, moms, people working at banks” (8:57-9:07), who cheered that a man was allegedly attacked in front of the whole world—and in some accounts, in front of his own children (3:21-3:24).

The core of the sickness, Rogan argues, is that people are celebrating simply because “you didn’t like his ideas” (3:27-3:29).

“That is so crazy that we’ve gone that far… You feel you could feel the evil” (3:30-3:40).

The Poison of Social Media

Why are people behaving this way? The answer, according to Rogan, is simple and terrifying: Social media has poisoned us (5:33).

He firmly believes that political discourse on these platforms is not “organic” or “real” (7:06, 7:09). Instead, it’s a carefully manufactured environment, amplified by “foreign governments, by bot farms and by various elements either in our government or other governments” (5:48-5:55). These external forces manipulate the public for “their own agenda, for their own ends,” creating a digital echo chamber where hate is not only allowed but “celebrated” (6:02-6:04).

This bizarre filter replaces healthy social circles with a fever pitch of culture war rhetoric, confusing people and stripping away their morals and ethics (6:58-7:14). It transforms political disagreement into a justification for celebrating violence, a particularly damning hypocrisy when coming from people who identify as “the kind, compassionate, inclusive progressives” (6:32-6:40).

Rogan admits he doesn’t agree with everything Charlie Kirk said, but stresses that a person’s ideas or politics should never be an excuse for violence or celebration of death.

“I don’t care if he was a bad guy or not… I don’t want to see him… I don’t want to see anybody” (8:00-8:04).

The events surrounding Charlie Kirk’s incident are a grim reminder that we are at a societal crossroads. We have allowed a manipulated digital environment to convince us that our political opponents are not just wrong, but are enemies whose suffering is a cause for public joy.

The question remains: Can we collectively recognize this manufactured hatred for what it is—a “dark” agenda—and pull ourselves back from the moral abyss?
