Joe Rogan is weighing in on the whole Olympics opening ceremony controversy.
During last week’s Olympic opening ceremony in Paris, viewers complained about a presentation featuring the Greek God Dionysus that many believed was mocking the Last Supper. Opening ceremony director Thomas Jolly has come forward to deny that he was mocking the Last Supper, but Rogan is calling B.S.
According to Rogan, the Olympics is scamming athletes to push their weird agenda.
“They’re being artsy. and they’re being fun but this is not the place for it. They’re pushing this weird agenda in this place where people are already getting f—ed over, the whole Olympics is just people getting f—-ed over’
Rogan explains that the Olympic committee is making billions while the athletes make none of the money.
“The Olympics is a giant scam,” “There’s two things going on simultaneously, OK.”
“You have the best athletes in the world participating in their disciplines, that’s happening. And then on top of that, you have enormous amounts of money being made, and none of it is going to the athletes. It is a giant scam.”
“It’s not made by athletes, it’s not made by the Olympics. It’s made by the people that are in charge of putting the Olympics out.”
“So, they’re the ones that are reaping all the money and sucking all the cash out of these athletes… The money they make is astronomical. The Olympics makes billions and billions of money in television revenue and advertising revenue, and they don’t give any of it to the athletes.”
