How I wish GotG3 will arrive already so it will be the last time we see Pratt

[CannaeDrive 3,412]

"Is math related to science" tea 

[Levine 23,562]

Misinformation kills people and it killed many people during these TWO YEARS of pandemic.

I don't need to hear the opinions of people who think there are ****ing microchips in vaccines.

To be fair, I've only seen this on HuffPo which is a very liberal source, but:

"Joe Rogan Shares Incorrect Coronavirus Story Just 24 Hours After Apology"

Oh Katy 

The man used his huge platform to constantly spread covid misinformation during a pandemic. Personally I don't think he cares about spreading misinformation and is only sorry it blew up in his face, trying to play it off as "just talking" when you've got the biggest podcast in the world is pretty ignorant imo. 

 

what did he said?

[Karlillosz 79]

what did Joe Rogan do?

yeah JW3 but I kinda gave up on it and just focusing on the netflix cartoon which is better than the 2 JW movies, the last season was amazing

It's not about people having differing opinions, if you are on a public forum with millions of followers it's straight up wrong to even entertain the idea of false science or false information regarding to a virus. If he was discussing whether fairies exist or not I wouldn't have a problem, everyone is entitled to be crazy. But when it involves public health and safety misinformation is not a world view or an opinion, it's incorrect and dangerous.

I'm highkey getting tired of people saying "let's just listen to different perspectives" when it turns out the "other perspective" is just a bunch of misinformation and propaganda. Sometimes there's no need for this "kumbaya, let's all listen to one another and try to empathize with each other" bullshit. Sometimes one side is just objectively right and the other side is objectively wrong.

I just watched Don't Look Up last night and, for those who don't know, basically the whole premise of the movie is that there's these two astrophysicists who discover a comet that's heading towards Earth. Throughout the movie they try to spread the word that they're all gonna die by going to the media, visiting the President, etc. if they don't act NOW, but no one takes them seriously. There was an actor doing a cameo (I won't spoil who) and he was playing this guy who tried to "play both sides." He was like, "I believe there's a comet that's going to destroy the Earth, but I also think the other side has some valid points...". Of course, that's an extreme situation, but still, COVID is global pandemic that has had fatal consequences for the rest of the population. Enough of this "both sides" sh*t. Sometimes you don't need a "different perspective" when that perspective is causing real negative impact.

Ugh he's exactly what's wrong with this country

Say it louder for the people in the back 

I hate that there are a lot of artists and albums especially those that were big with 90’s Eurodance and House only available on Spotify in full and not Apple Music. This whole idea of different perspectives doesn’t work when the “other side” is providing blatantly wrong information. 
  
For anyone defending these people standing by Joe Rogan, I’m sure all those graves of the millions worldwide who died from COVID would love to hear these “other side” opinions.

Katy has straight up right-wingers in her family so it does not surprise me that she is able to empathize with people like them or that share a lot of the same thought processes. Doesn't mean she's that way or supports that kind of stuff necessarily but yeah

This is actually a great point. She was raised by fundamentalist Christians so she’s def exposed to a lot of right wing perspectives. She’s been very clear that she’s a Democrat tho, and arguably her career decline began after she supported Hilary so publically.  I’m not sure sure why she is supporting Rogsn but it’s prob just about free speech.
