A few years ago, who would’ve guessed that an MMA commentator’s podcast would become the go-to platform for global corporate news? In a surprisingly friendly conversation far from a hard-hitting interview, Mark Zuckerberg discusses ending fact‑checking on his platforms and defends Meta’s stance against EU fines. He paints a picture of the EU unfairly targeting his American company—a narrative that echoes Trump‑style rhetoric and hints at a peculiar view of international law.
After about an hour, the tone shifts: the pair chat about MMA, hunting, and firearms—entertaining, if you’re into that. What gives me pause, though, is Rogan’s use of populist buzzwords like “mainstream media” that tap into right‑wing codes.
