“Can you pass the new U.S. citizenship test?”​


Not to be cyclical, but it is a piece of cake, well, suppose for anyone growing up in the US, although I could predict people from certain States would struggle. Only possible difficult question would be no #7, kinda comes down to a guess between two answers, whereas the Joe Rogin fans probably wish it never did occur

I’ll bite. I know who Joe Rogan is but I never watched Fear Factor, don’t follow the UFC and have never listened to his podcast. So I looked up his audience. It said 80 percent male and definitely skewed younger. That latter part did not really surprise me though because like you, a lot of people in your generation do not really listen to podcasts.

It said his political breakdown was 35 percent Independent, 32 percent Republican and 27 percent Democrat and that there is an anti establishment theme involved. Based on that, why would they be against ending slavery?

Who said anything about slavery? Question #7 was on women’s suffrage, unless you for a different test

Nor have I, but from what I read, his and several other popular similar podcasts often dip into misogynist themes. I do know and have seen UFC matches on video, and being a fan of Boxing I find them stupid, but it is easy to see how they could appeal to an alcohol fueled younger male audience.

I was actually by total accident in Vegas when McGregor fought some Russian guy who wrestled bears, obviously didn’t attend, but the crowd was interesting. If you have ever been to a big pro boxing match it was like that crowd on steroids

LOL, my bad, totally misread that.

I can only imagine it's quite a scene at those events, especially in Vegas.

I'll share this random story. At 'SC I did an internship with Forum Boxing. They put on a fight night at the LA Forum once a month. I had never seen anything like it. These 5'8" middle age guys with guts walking around with these young smoke shows. It was the most L.A. thing you can imagine.

IMO, everyone needs to pass a citizenship test before being allowed to vote. Maybe even every 10 years.

Of course, like the gun-banners want to do to gun owners, I believe everyone who votes, drives and owns a gun or is involved in a profession that involves life and death should be periodically examined for mental issues. This includes national elected reps. They should also pass random drug and alcohol exams. :)

I passed! 9/10 I got the Kuwait question wrong. I said it was to secure the oil! At least that is the way I saw it. 😁
