“The fundamental weakness is empathy,” Musk recently told radio podcast host Joe Rogan. “There is a bug, which is the empathy response.”
As Musk has established himself as at least the second most powerful person in an administration seeking a wholesale remaking of institutions, rules and norms, what he said matters, because it encapsulates a political plan. What the Project 2025 report set out in over 900 turgid pages, Musk’s remark captures in a simple pithy mantra for the social media age.
It’s likely due to all the DMT, weed, supplements, and head trauma he’s had over his career. Rogan has been bashed around like an old soccer ball in a LatAm favela, and his pivot to ‘PodcastBro Extraordinare’ came with so much drug use, it makes your local pharmacy blush.
DMT and weed have nothing to do with this.
If anything, it’s the HGH and steroids.
Both cause long-term psychological shifts with extended, heavy use, which Rogan is known for. HGH and Steroids do as well, but DMT and Cannabis are definitely the stronger psychoactive compounds.
I’d love to see one other example of a person doing DMT and becoming a fascist. Honestly…
Highly unlikely that DMT and weed reduced his capacity for empathy.
More likely the mainlining of $$$ and value system that says cash supercedes all else.
Ain’t no drug like money!
Bro Brogan hasn’t been in a fight since he was like 19. Rolling around on the mat in a gym doesn’t cause head trauma.
His problem is that he’s just a dumb asshole by nature.
all that horse testosterone makes him look dana white.
