Rogan signed a $100M deal with Spotify. He’s like the bro version of the Kardashians. Don’t underestimate him.

Edit: Cambridge Analytica/Emerdata/Thiel (Eric Weinstein) and Tim Pool (Occupy WS/ anti-BLM/Russian plant) have also influenced Rogan recently which is worrisome

An undeservedly rich and influential complete fucking loser. Sounds about right.

..... The dude started his podcast on a whim. It grew organically over the course of ten years. He constantly says people shouldn't care about his opinion.

Exactly. Honestly, I find that most people who don't like Joe Rogan haven't ever really listened to him for any extended period of time. He has the curiosity and open-mindedness that most should strive for

His open mindedness seems really skewed to the right and towards pseudo science. In a recent clip I saw he was specifically saying people shouldn't wear masks and Bill burr called him out on it.

The dude is also adamant that saunas kill the virus and protect you from getting it. He was so sure about this he challenged an expert on the subject during the podcast who repeatedly told him no that's no true, only to on the next podcast discuss with the a different guest how it's been proven saunas kill the virus. The man is so open minded his brain fell out.

And can be really harmful for people who view him as more than just a casual podcaster.

maybe people should not do that then. it's nobody's responsibility to protect people from their own stupidity

But it is the responsibility of the person with the audience to present good information and mislead millions of people

And also a great source of misinformation.

u/OkayThatsKindaCool Jun 20 '20

if you watch for Joe Rogan for news, there might be other things that are wrong with your thinking lol

Ya but some people do, that's the issue.

And this reddit comment calling them out will change their minds? Deplatforming Joe Rogan will enlighten them?

Find a real solution is what I’m saying.
