Summary

Former Ukrainian boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko accused podcaster Joe Rogan of “repeating Russian propaganda” after Rogan criticized U.S. military aid to Ukraine and suggested it could escalate into World War III.

Klitschko defended Ukraine’s resistance against Russia, highlighting the country’s fight for freedom and condemning Rogan’s remarks as aiding Putin’s agenda.

He invited Rogan to discuss their differences on the podcast “like free men.”

Rogan, who recently endorsed Donald Trump, called the war a “proxy war” and criticized Biden’s decision to allow Ukraine to strike Russian soil with U.S.-supplied missiles.

    Joe Rogan never needed their money, he got plenty from the 250 MILLION Spotify gave him to keep pumping out brain cancer to incels. Rogan is backing Russia for the lulz.

      I’ll bet the Spotify people showed him market research and told him… if you tap into this audience using your platform… the 250 will be the beginning. And then he got sucked in.

        It’s possible, though I think the simplest explanation is the guys a cunt with no internal morality, and an unquenchable thirst for love and fame
