I find LATELY he is becoming very political its like he sides with Fox News calling Trudeau a dictator and Canada a communist Country and quite frankly a guy with such power really tunes into the uneducated and starts the wax rolling to their brains -my father heard that episode he texts me exactly what Joe rogan said im like oh man this sucks lol
Did you miss the part where Trudeau invoked the Wartime Act to deal with protestors and then froze private bank accounts associated with them? Calling Trudeau a dictator and Canada a communist country is hyperbole, but the issues he is bringing up are serious issues that deserve discussion.

I don't listen to much Rogan, but the few times I have he appears to be a very considerate interviewer, and he explains logical reasoning for his views, even if I don't always agree with his reasoning. Alex Jones, on the flip side, is a bombastic asshat spouting nonsense that he doesn't even attempt to anchor in logic.

Conflating the two either means you don't actually know them, or that you have a political agenda in trying to link Rogan to Jones's sinking ship. It'll be the same thing with Poilievre when he gets the Conservative nomination. People will try to link him to Trump to score political points, even though he's nothing like Trump, in an attempt to sink him.

Jim Norton doesn't like exposing his asshole in an open space, he and Joe Rogan are bosom buddies.

I saw Joe Rogan live about a decade ago, he made me laugh uproariously. He's not Alex Jones, never will be. He's even said that he's a blithering idiot, his podcast is an open forum where he hopes to learn something. He's being outrageous to justify the fat contract Spotify gave him.

Jim Norton wants to legally change his name to Hugo Fattitz. You folks offended by Joe Rogan are thin skinned.

Listen to his interview with Dr. Sanjay Gupta of CNN. He said some controversial comments, done to set the table for Dr. Gupta, not to bully him.

I still appreciate that rogan didn't invite trump. I believe rogan is fucked in the head a little (anti-vaxx / horse dewormer etc) but he still has some decency left. Alex Jones has none. Neither do most ultra right characters.
Let's just examine this shall we.

He's not anti-vaxx. He's pro choice. He's anti-mandates. He's pro health and has had scores of guests on talking about how to optimize your health to boost your immune system.

He took human grade Ivermectin not horse dewormer. That's right Ivermectin that was meant for humans in a pill form.

And I'm sure he appreciates that you appreciate that he didn't want Trump on his show. But before his election as president Biden people tried to get him on as well and Rogan said he wasn't interested. He stated that Biden didn't have all of his mental faculties and wasn't interested in interviewing him.

One thing is for sure - The media's smear campaign seems to have worked, when people will unironically state with confidence that he not only took, but encouraged others to take "horse dewormer"

I don't know what he actually took but he sure as hell CLAIMED that he took it among a bunch of other stuff and he claimed that it helped. If you think it didn't ENCOURAGE some if not many out of millions of his fans to take it - okay...

What he took was the doctor prescriped HUMAN APPROVED version and dosage. And specifically said that was the only one.

Quite simply in admitting you don't actually know what he took you are admitting the Media told you a lie and you continue the believe it. Which is the very thing you accuse Rogan of.

Not a good place to be.

Unchecked power? You mean like the corporate owned main stream media? Because they are really the only ones bitching about it. Mostly because they dream of getting his numbers and independence.

This is gatekeeping.
Yes, exactly like corporate-owned media of any kind. The news outlets should not be making a profit. By doing so, they will always be tempted by profit instead of broadcasting the facts. By the way, "facts" are what can be verified and tested, not what some guy thinks is true.....

Again, acting this way is what makes the media (all modern types) extremely dangerous.....

What's wrong with gatekeeping? Isn't that what the US Constitution is based on? Checks and balances? I'm confused now.....

Not with free speech. I think there is an amendment in there somewhere......

Quite simply the minute you give a oligarchy of media control over messaging you create authoritarianism.

He isn't a news caster. He is an interviewer, conversationalist, comedian and opinion maker. And does not claim to be otherwise. In fact goes out of his way to say form your own opinions. His 3 hour shows cover a wide range of topics. He brings on real scientists.

He had a great AI robotics guy on tallking about working for Boston Dynamics for example. Really good show on what they are doing in the labs and the far reaching consequences of AI robots. And brought down to a level of understanding for the masses. Thats the appeal.

In having to explain things to his dumb ass, the guests have to do it for all the other ones too, making them a bit smarter. And to think. Which is the point

The man has single handedly destroyed Canadian values and our global reputation in under 2 years and he's not done yet. I just pray a tsunami hits Costa Rica in the next week and we get lucky.
Wow, LMAO! Canada is so bad, why are you still here if I'm assuming correctly you live in Canada?

Hate to break it to you but if PP wins, Justin continues to reign so if you are still here, I'd start thinking of a Justin-free country.

Man, are you naive. I quote the (endlessly repeated) examples of yelling "Fire" in a crowded theatre and anti-defamation laws.....just two examples of how free speech is regulated in some way.....gatekeeping, if you will.....
