Canadian women and men) deserve better than guilt-by-Netflix association. Pierre Poilievre just sat down with the world’s biggest podcast because he’s fighting for tariff-free trade, lower taxes, and housing you can actually afford, not “dancing with the wrong crowd.” Joe Rogan interviews everyone from Bernie Sanders to Jordan Peterson to UFC fighters. That’s called free speech and curiosity, not a misogyny club. Rogan’s audience includes millions of women who want straight talk on the economy, not scripted outrage. The Theroux doc dropped March 11 spotlighting the extremes, Andrew Tate types who are toxic and dumb. Fair enough, those guys suck. But lumping in a family man like Poilievre (wife, daughter, son, yes, he has a daughter) because he went on the same platform? That’s the laziest smear in politics. It’s the same playbook that calls any pushback on endless identity politics “hate.” Canadian families are hurting. Young men are dropping out, suiciding at 4x the rate of women, and feeling disposable in a system that lectures them nonstop. Young women face unaffordable rents, delayed families, and a culture that tells them success = career + resentment. Neither side wins when we pit genders against each other. Conservatives don’t “demean women”, we want strong women, strong men, and policies that let both thrive without government picking winners. Watch the actual Rogan episode when it drops (Poilievre already posted the photo and thanked him). It’s about Canadian workers, not red-pill nonsense. Or keep doom-scrolling docs that confirm your priors while housing costs eat another 20%. Your call. Common sense > conspiracy. Families over fear. Let’s build, not divide.
