Joe Rogan exposes why he will never move to Australia
US podcaster Joe Rogan has told his large audience that he would not move to Australia because the country had put people in ‘concentration camps’ for ‘colds’ during Covid lockdowns.
He also said that this kind of repression was only possible because Australia prevented its people from having guns.
The comments came during Rogan’s conversation with retired Mixed Martial Arts fighter Royce Gracie as they discussed a perceived situation. reduction in personal freedom in the US during an upward trend crime.
“I keep telling people that if America falls, I think the whole world will fall, and the rest of the world will fall,” Gracie said.
“Yes, maybe that’s the plan,” replied Rogan, who has more than 14.5 million followers for his podcasts on Spotify.
“There’s no place that has this kind of freedom,” he added as Royce continued to ask “where would you go?”
Ultimately, Rogan said he once considered Australia a viable alternative to the US, but had since changed his mind.

“I used to think about Australia, but when I saw how they handled the pandemic I was like ‘oh f**, that’s what happens when no one has guns,’” he said.
“Yeah, the army just comes in and tells you what to do and puts you in concentration camps because you have a cold, like it’s crazy.”
During the Covid pandemic, Australia has quarantined people arriving in the country for weeks before allowing them to enter the community.
Most were housed in hotels, but some were also housed in temporary isolation camps.
Australia’s specialist national quarantine facility, Howard Springs on the outskirts of Darwin, housed around 64,000 people for a mandatory two-week isolation period.

Opponents of the quarantine arrangement called the Howard Springs center a “concentration camp.”
Those quarantined in Howard Springs had to pay for the costs of housing, food, medical support, police and security.
They had to pay $2,500 per person for the fortnight, or $5,000 for a family of two or more.
Even members of the Australian Olympic team returning from the Tokyo Olympics spent 14 days at the facility.
