Joe Rogan shocked so many leftists celebrated murder of Charlie Kirk

In the moment, Rogan and Sheen looked at clips from MSNBC where a pundit's "hot take" was that Kirk was killed by a "supporter shooting their gun off in celebration."

"There's gonna be a lot of people celebrating this," Rogan said. Sheen agreed. Weeks later, Rogan was shocked to find that people were celebrating Kirk's killing.

"Well, the Charlie Kirk thing f*cking opened up my eyes," Rogan said on his Sept. 30 show. "Yeah, I never expected so many people would celebrate that man's murder."

"Bizarre, just bizarre, like normal people, that I think, think they're good people," Rogan said, "and they think they genuinely think that guy was a bad guy, and I don't think they're right, and I think they were indoctrinated. And I don't agree with everything that Charlie Kirk said or did—"

"I don't care if he was a bad guy or not. I don't want to see him, I don't see anybody die," said guest Brandon Coleman of The Red Clay Strays.

Rogan pointed out that Kirk and Coleman are about the same age, with Kirk only 31 at the time of his death and Coleman just a year or two younger.

"He would go around to college campuses and have arguments with people, or have discussions with people, have debates with people," Rogan said. "But it infuriated people, because they felt like this guy is going against the progress that was being made in society. But what he did not feel, like, was progress, like it was a progressive agenda that was being pushed in most college campuses."

"It's a leftist, Marxist sort of agenda. He didn't feel like that was the correct way to live, and he felt like he had arguments against it, and he wanted, and it was, you know, it's a business too, right. Like, he developed this big social media platform because of it, and I, you know, I don't, like I said, I don't agree— I don't think some of the things he said, he shouldn't have said."

"But the fact that people were cheering when he died, normal people, housewives, moms, like fucking people working at banks, people working at various industries, celebrating a man getting shot in front of his kids in front of the whole world."

"That's evil," Coleman said.

"What the f*ck is wrong with us?" Rogan asked.

"It's just really weird now," Coleman said.

"It's really weird, and it's celebrated to hate people, and that's the weird part, and most of us know that that's wrong. And that's why, like, when this Charlie Kirk thing happens, there's a giant blowback. And most people recognize like 'hey, as collectively, as a society, this is not right.'

"Regardless of whoever that person is, whether that person's on the left or the right. They just got shot in front of the whole world. This is, it's not a thing to celebrate ever. And especially when you're seeing people on the left that are supposed to be progressives."

"These are supposed to be the kind compassionate, inclusive people that are celebrating gun violence, public execution like— That's insane. That's, that's a public assassination. That's insane."

Rogan called out the hypocrisy of leftists who promote gun control but then celebrate gun violence before attributing much of the vitriol to people being "confused."

"We're all just, so many of us are confused because of the rhetoric online and again, a lot of that's not normal. It's not organic, it's not real, it's not real people, and it's not what you would ever get in real social circles of healthy people."

"You're only getting it through this very bizarre filter of just text on social media and videos where someone's just talking to the camera, celebrating on social media. It's like, it's very strange," he said.
