The heated debate between Douglas Murray and Dave Smith on Joe Rogan’s podcast exposed a growing split on the Right. Murray, a British writer and Israel supporter, clashed with Smith, a libertarian comic, over who gets to speak on complex issues like Gaza. Rogan stepped in, blasting Murray’s “expert” arguments as elitist gatekeeping.
Murray claims he never said only Oxford grads should be heard. He argues real-world experience, like his time in Israel, matters more than degrees. But experts, he says, have failed regular people — from COVID mandates to weak border policies. Smith fired back, saying everyday Americans don’t need fancy titles to have common sense.
Rogan ripped Murray’s stance, shouting: “You’re not an expert either!” The UFC commentator mocked the idea that credentials equal truth, pointing out experts’ constant failures. He stood with Smith, a comic who speaks for millions tired of being talked down to by coastal elites.
The fight isn’t just about degrees — it’s about who controls the narrative. Neocons like Murray want “serious” voices guiding the conversation. Populists like Smith say let the people decide. Gaza became the battleground, with Murray pushing pro-Israel talking points while Smith questioned endless foreign wars.
Rogan’s platform gives both sides a megaphone, but tensions boiled over. Murray accused the host of boosting conspiracy theorists posing as historians. Smith shot back: “Since when do we need permission slips to have opinions?” The clash reveals a Right divided between globalist thinkers and America-first rebels.
Liberals are laughing as conservatives tear each other apart. But this is actually healthy — a family debate about how to save Western values. The real enemy isn’t in the studio; it’s the woke mob trying to cancel all of them. United or divided, the Left fears their combined reach.
Murray’s warning rings hollow to working folks. They’ve seen “experts” wreck economies, open borders, and push trans ideology on kids. Why trust another British talking head? Smith’s rage reflects Main Street’s frustration with being patronized while their country burns.
In the end, Rogan’s crew shows what makes America great — messy, loud debates where no idea gets immunity. Let the elites clutch their pearls. Real conservatives know truth isn’t found in degrees, but in the hearts of those fighting for freedom.
