UFC commentator Joe Rogan and American rapper Killer Mike recently discussed the backlash the latter received for his political beliefs.

Mike recently made an appearance on the renowned 'The Joe Rogan Experience' podcast, where he shared that he was criticized by individuals for not being a Democrat. Rogan then went on to speak about a study about extreme leftists in an attempt to possibly explain the reasoning behind the backlash received by the rapper.

"There was a study that was done recently about left-wing authoritarianism and the way certain people behave. It's like a bunch of different psychological conditions that are almost indistinguishable from like, you know, horrible narcissism, horrible psychotic behaviour," Joe Rogan said.
What happens is, when you have groups that are ideological groups, whether it's the left or the right, you're going to get people that just join that group that are absolutely insane and if you don't call it out, then you have a giant problem because people are going to associate you with whatever the worst aspects of your [group]," he added.
