On one hand you got *******s who can’t admit Joe has given misinformation a platform and he waffles on his stances.
On the other you got folks buying into sound byte cancel culture who never watched the show. Don’t know what the **** they’re talking about. And just looking to hitch their outrage wagon to the latest most convenient target.
Both sides suck. JRE been wack since it stopped airing on YouTube. What kind of weirdos use Spotify to listen to podcasts anyways?
Cats in here surprised to find out that he & Dave Chapelle are friends? Yeah y’all legitimately don’t have a clue. Go yell at the clouds.
white america gonna have a civil war over joe rogan. Can't wait.
Cancel humanity because people disagree about a meat head podcast host?
The sad part about his defenders in this thread is that they don't realize or refuse to address the fact that podcasts like his have reintroduced ideas about culture and race that have long been debunked. Black folks who defend him need to realize that nothing good for us has come from the popularization of pseudoscientific concepts like linking skull sizes to one's intelligence. If they refuse to challenge nonsense like this in the name of free speech, they shouldn't cry when the people who believe in those ideas rise to positions of power and implement policies based on said ideas with no fear of being shunned and dropped by their constituents.Or maybe Chapelle and Chris Rock can have a joint comedy special defending it. Misinformation on critical race theory. Misinformation on vaccines. Misinformation on the use of the N word.
I, personally, don’t think Rogan is a “bad” guy. I just think in this new Information Age, it’s problematic because Web 2.0, has proliferated misinformation. And his platform is one of the greatest echo chambers. I watched another podcast where the hosts defended Rogan on the racism thing. Problem is the hosts were white. And it’s not up to the victimizer to determine if the N word is okay to say because of hip hop music.
Nah because every discourse in the age of information is tedious & rife with misinformed people looking to just further their own personal agendas.
Nobody really gives a **** they just pretend.
He's the most popular english language podcaster in the world.
you don't get that popular without have a large and broad casual fanbase.
My problem is the process, how we determine where the line is drawn.
I think it best when it has happen through more speech not less
and I don't think it often works well when you try to take broadley popular ideas or media figures
and try to draw line through elite consensus.
and it seems pretty clear to me that most regular casual consumers of media
do not think that whatever joe rogan has done rises to the level where his content should not be available for consumption.
or must be excised from spotify.
The view that it does need to be removed from spotify I think is a relatively fringe view
and from what I can tell is mostly shared by college educated progressive and cultural elites.
If musicians are mad at spotify and want to boycott spotify as an expression of that anger, i mean okay I get it.
but I just assumed that the reason they were mad was because they wanted to reduce misinformation
or reduce racism.
Nah because every discourse in the age of information is tedious & rife with misinformed people looking to just further their own personal agendas.
Nobody really gives a **** they just pretend.
Well, I see in the comments folks saying he was anti-mandate and not anti-vax
To be fair, if you look at a prominent right-winger's tweet, all other suggested tweets are also from fellow right-wingers.The idea that you're just accidentally stumbling upon these far right accounts is becoming less and less believable
I click on the Joe rogan hashtag and these pop up.The idea that you're just accidentally stumbling upon these far right accounts is becoming less and less believable
Andrew Yang is truly a special kind of jackass
