I imagine most of the Roganites probably didn't even know Neil Young existed before last week.

No doubt. And I bet most people criticising Rogan have never even listened to him

So why not try to force Rogan to have someone with an opposing view on, or even a debate? Just shutting people down isn’t the answer imo.

He has announced he is going to do this very thing.

Probably. I have, FWIW.

I don't really have any argument with him per se, kudos to him for monetising the persona of a martial arts/weed based culture obsessive telling everyone to think for themselves, maaan. Most people can get access to his kind of devastating insight for free if they know enough disaffected older brothers/uncles hitting middle age, so his capacity to industrialise that entire process for profit is very impressive.

Which podcasts have you listened to?

NY has embarrassed himself.

He's done what his generation did. Remember when The Beatles returned their gongs to HMQ? It's not too dissimilar to that and it means about as much. Hippys like to have their say. It will change very little but so what. He;s made his point. I'm all for Rogan having a platform for endorsing delouser too as a virus treatment.

Everyone seems happy with their choices despite your views on embarrassment. Let people do what they want to do.

Endorsing delouser? Can you please expand on that bit? I thought he said he had taken medication that was in use by humans.

Delouser can be used by humans to improve all sorts of conditions. He got through covid with clear skin. I respect that

Doesn't strike me as the type to be embarrassed. I would imagine he's feeling fairly content. It's a considered position he's taken. And it's caused a shit storm which was presumably what he was aiming for.

I'm pleased that someone else knows how to use protest properly. First aim being to do exactly as you say.

Do you not feel you are over simplifying what Ivermectin is as a product? I wouldn't want you to give out misinformation on a product that was approved for human use back in 1987.

Some people might read your post and get confused.

I've said I don't care if a platform provider gives Rogan a voice to spread his lies and misinformation or not. That's for Spotify to decide. If they continue to give him a platform and people believe his rubbish then that's between them. If people want to be free to be stupid that is not my concern.

I agree Spotify should decide.

But what about your misinformation on what Ivermectin is? Do you not feel you should be more responsible on here with what you say?

Gosh Rogan is free to sue me for everything I've got if he feels I'm being irresponsible or even dangerously irresponsibly. You could probably do something yourself, I'm sure you can report me to someone or something. But Rogan is a lier and you seem to be endorsing his lies.

There. If you feel some need to be responsible I've given you directions.

I just wonder why you felt the need to over simplify what the medication he has talked about, actually is. Its very similar to what CNN did.

I don't agree with a lot of what Rogan has said in relation to covid. I have no interest in what he has to say on this subject tbh and don't listen to the podcasts where he goes on about the subject. I just do not understand why those who are upset about misinformation, then go on to do what they purport to be dead against. Why call it a delouser?

The world has turned upside down in my lifetime. When I were a child it took great invesigative journalism such as Watergare and Profumo to get to the truth.

Now politicians and their and their advocates simply swerve this meaningless process of journalisic content by shouting the lies and untruths as loudly as possible.

People can take delouser for covid symptoms whilst avoiding the recommended vaccine if they wish to do so. I can't and don't want to stop them.

Why call it delouser? You seem to not want to discuss that.
