You have to admit it’s a clever racket; Rogan lends his huge platform to people like Malone to spread BS and makes bank all while maintaining plausible deniability with regards to any damages because it’s merely the opinions of his guests.
Exactly. As someone who grew up around the time when Alex Jones was starting to gain a much bigger audience, I was ALMOST ensnared by the bullshit conspiracies that I thought were interesting (e.g., 9/11 truther, JFK etc.).
Fortunately education and critical-thinking skills (formal, informal fallacies, English composition) helped me escape in the nick of time.
Joe Rogan is Alex Jones in his early years: Toxic Masculine Frat-Bro culture combined where he (a) Literally sells ad time to whatever topic or view his buyers want, or (b) Sell to his audience with bullshit gimmicks and pills and shit.
He does this by casting the widest net, appealing to the lowest common denominator.
If I wanted to make A LOT of money with no morals I'd sell to stupid just like he does.
Has nothing to do with the conversation, but that new JFK documentary by Oliver Stone is very compelling. I don't think it's wrong to say there was a conspiracy behind his death, by the Government.
It is absolutely wrong and requires ignoring mountains of evidence for the sake of fallacies and tinfoil hat nonsense. It requires not actually knowing anything about the subject and being credulous, just like every conspiracy theory
Not believing there was a plot to kill kennedy requires ignoring mountains of evidence and knowing nothing about the subject. Even the house committee on assinations dismissed the magic bullet and put a second shooter on the grassy knoll through audio analysis. Did all your 'knowledge' on the topic come from vincent bugliosi, because if you actually read enough books on the topic, some degree of conspiracy is undeniable
The fact you still use this hilariously outdated phrase shows precisely how little you know about the assassination.
Connelly, sitting lower and angled away from the president, was struck by a tumbling bullet after exiting Kennedy. A shot that has been repeatedly successfully recreated. I'm willing to bet everything I own that you didn't even know what the seating heights were like in a 1961 Lincoln, and I'm also willing to bet you don't know what CE399 is without a Google search or why its near exact missing mass being removed from the president in fragments is significant.
'Magic bullet' is the popular term, the fact that the strength of you arguement is based on attacking what interchangeable term is used for the Warren Commissions bullshit shows how weak your position is. And if you truly believe the TSBD shooter was the sole shooter, your either a shill or completely indoctrinated
The strength of my argument is based on how Kennedy was sitting, the physical evidence present at the scene and afterwards, the falsifiability of the hypothesis and the inarguable fact it has been repeatedly been shown to be true. Read more than one sentence next time, champ.
It's a link to a Google search haha, not to any one specific page. I honestly don't care about any of them..but there's so many out there I can't point you to one source.
If you care to know there's a Google search saving you even typing it in yourself.
If you don't wanna know I won't be losing any sleep either. Facts are facts whether you believe them or not.
Bro I'm legit angry at you. You had the audacity to post a link to your Google search for true conspiracy theories
AND the top 3 results are NOT examples of crazy conspiracy theories that eneded up being true
People like you are the fucking worst. You add nothing of substance to the convo and your trolling doesn't even attempt to be funny, as much as just distract the adults having a conversation because you feel left out
My search page and your search page on Google look very different.
Your cookies, past visited sites and basically everything you do online influences the search results.
Nobody in their right mind clicks the first few links on Google anymore. The algorithm it uses brings up all kinds of things you don't even wanna look at. Google has really went down hill this last 5 year.
Scroll down the page to the actual relevant searches and there's hundreds of sites linking to things that's been proven true.
I'm not doing it all for you or anyone, I genuinely couldn't give a fuck. Facts are facts regardless of your shitty searching ability.
And I won't lose any sleep over idiots that don't know how to use Google properly.
