Roseblud Kisses 685 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 As much as he is evil and wrong, Rogan will only become richer and more powerful and famous from this. And so for this I might have to stan Skinni Pussi ConfirmedT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have deals with Trump for his social media platform as well. 6 hours ago, CannaeDrive said: Well, they don't have to silence him, they just have to cancel his show and stop doing business with him, it's not that complicated really. They don't own his show, they just have exclusive distribution rights. They're sticking with him though because he spears the podcast segment of their service and letting him go means they wouldn't have a competitive edge because they don't have any other sort of exclusive deal with artists.

Chromatislaps 34,831 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 I'm generally against silencing people. A disclaimer should be enough And before people start to attack me, it's very evident that there is censoring happening on social media in general, and in a socalled "democratic society" where we are allowed to debate and talk about various topics, this is very undemocratic. Joe Rogan does have a responsibility for fact checking since he has a big platform, but a temporary solution for that is simple: we used to have rating systems and disclaimers for movies/documentaries/etc in the past. Something like that should work. Fact checking should really become the focus point of improving the internet, and not fact checking by a centralized institute, but by a decentralized organization.

Doesn't mean he's a right wing conservative. Unfortunately this type of reporting can cause a lot of unnecessary confusion and controversy. And this why I hate journalism these days, it's only sensationalism, there is zero nuance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighter 15,376 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 i agree with the CEO, we should have freedom edit: i commented too soon without looking at the post, i thought it was just about the COVID vaccine misinformation which i was about to comment doesnt necessarily need artist to pull off their catalog but to correct the misinformation instead sorry, i disagree with the CEO now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RahrahWitch 6,985 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 I'm so sick of these kinds of people complaining about being "canceled" and "silenced" as if the words and actions you do don't have any consequences. Freedom of speech means you're free to say anything you want but that doesn't mean you're immune to backlash. Like he can say the N word, like he has, but that doesn't mean everyone has to be okay with it - why is that such a hard concept to grasp? If you're a white man consistently saying the N word then maybe you should be silenced till you learn the true impact that word has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lasagna 2,771 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 he should be removed for spreading vaccine misinformation and distrust in vaccines and its that simple. disclaimers etc don't work because people will still listen and take his word regardless. freedom of speech doesn't protect you when you're endangering lives.
