Agree with you socks. It looks like Rogan has said a few wrong things too, but I think SOME of these issues are more nuanced than the MSM is allowing, and dismissing all of it as misinformation is not really fair

Yes - the responses to him seem to focus only on his approaches to COVID, rather than the bigger picture, and I have to admit I know less about his other interviews, but will see if there is more on them in due course. I listened to Rogan when he discussed sports, long ago, and I still think that this is his area, rather than voicing his opinions about why we should mistrust medical science.

I'm in agreement with a lot of what you are saying. Joe Rogan would certainly not be my preferred oracle of truth.

To me the important points are about Dr. Robert Malone. This guy has the original patents for the RNA transfection method used for these MRNA vaccines and is a credible expert in immunology. He was booted from Twitter and other platforms essentially for having a different opinion than Fauci, and I applaud Rogan using his platform to fight the censorship of a credible expert.

Thats what this is about to me. There are very very well respected experts in the field that disagree with various aspects of the Covid policy (Dr Battarchaya, from Stanford, Kulldorf from Harvard, etc) and are being censored. This is not how science works, experts don't always agree.

To me this is about Rogan using his platform in a way that encourages scientific dialogue, although he certainly hasn't been perfect. You could also say Joe BIden spread misinformation when he said "If you take this vaccine you won't get Covid", as the experts already knew these vaccines were not sterilizing by this point. So I don't think it's fair to hold Rogan to a standard of perfection either.

Anyways appreciate that are willing to have a reasonable discussion, I am always happy to do so

I would also add this: CNN and the CDC has spread at least as many untruths as Joe Rogan (including that Ivermectin is 'dangerous horse medicine'), and nobody is talking about censoring them. If the damn authorities would stop blowing smoke up everyones ass, we would not need the ex host of 'Fear Factor' to get involved, which is rather unfortunate Ill admit
