We do better when we stick to hockey.

No, we don’t

Just as many “phucktards”

Also…. Joe>Justin

It wasn't "code" - I was clearly stating my opinion as an opinion. You defensively took it another way.

Disagreeing with your opinion is "whining" - got it.

When the other side is parroting debunked horsepoop, no, we don't need to test their beliefs. Opinions that clash with fact have already been tested and debunked. It's kicking a dead horse and pretending it's intellectual debate.

I don't hate him or anyone. I disagree with the debunked horsepoop that him and some of his guests prattle on about.

... Hardly. I said the guy is a phucktard, not a threat to life on earth as we know it.

"Problematic" is absolutely code for "I don't like what this person says so I'm going to label them as controversial."

And no, I'm not taking anything "defensively" - or is this your way of argumentation? Accusing your interlocutor of being "defensive."

If you seriously think that deplatforming anyone who we disagree with - Holocaust deniers, Putin apologists, neo-Nazis - is a good idea, you need to also understand the consequences of that action. There is literally no plausibly good end game for deplatforming or censoring ideas.

I never said you "hated" Joe Rogan, I merely offered my estimation of him and a counter to what I think is the classic notion that he's some sort of dude-bro moron. I think he is a useful voice and provides a platform for interesting conversation. I don't agree with him on many things and, at times, want to reach through the interwebs and strangle some of his guests on occasion.

When you label someone as "problematic" it necessarily conveys that someone is an existential threat because they may promulgate "debunked horsepoop" to the masses. If you want to turn that into an absurdist "threat to all life as we know it" narrative, lol... okay, bud!

Anyone who dares challenge criticism of Joe is a "simp" who is "triggered."

Sounds like his criticism of Trudeau has you triggered, bro.

You’re literally simping for a guy who spends hours a week attacking Canada, and tells his millions of followers (who are already deranged and stupid) that JT is a dangerous man who is purposely ruining Canada because he’s a apart of WEF, or some stupid bullpoop like that.

Ive watched.
Hes kinda a (frank)ing idiot who tries act like hes not a (frank)ing idiot, but most times comes across as a big (frank)ing idiot.

Which is appealing to alot of people.....cause well...
- Fakepartofme

To be fair, we're all big (frank)ing idiots. The nice thing about Joe is that he admits he's a big (frank)ing idiot all of the time.

Not sure why this threatens people but I like to think it's because he's just like the rest of us but has somehow found a way to monetize it big time.

I await your dissertation arguing that deplatforming and censorship of ideas is necessarily a good thing.

Ok.

So a group of peadophiles want to form a group and raise awareness around that fact that they’re “minor attracted.”

Let’s give them a 3 hour platform on Joe Rogan’s show. Because you know, it’s better to have it all out in the open. Them talking for 3 hours on their views certainly wouldn’t inspire other pedos to join them in normalizing that behaviour.


Also, I don’t see why we have to accept Nazi’s. They shouldn’t get a platform.

Its become a sad world when people actually think thats acceptable

Center is probably 3rd on our list of needs. But if the price is right why not.

Dude, watch the (frank)ing podcast instead of posting bad faith bs from (frank)ing Vice.

How about Forbes?

Joe Rogan is an ignorant piece of poop who spreads dangerous misinformation.

FFS, AIDS denialism?

Is it really impossible for you to denounce him over this single issue?

You're franking weak.

Ok.

So you think pedos are truly capable of normalizing their behaviour given a platform? You don't think it would have the opposite effect in exposing them for the deeply sick (frank)s they are? Interesting.

As per Nazis, look up the Skokie Case and the ACLU's defence. We don't have to "accept" Nazi beliefs, but suppressing their right to march - despite their abhorrent beliefs - is an absolutely necessary consequence of the principles of freedom of speech.

Shine a light. Pushing ugly ideas outside of "polite society" only serves to push it into an underground network of nasty, self-reinforcing poop.

Please just drop this political talk so I don’t have to begin to delete posts.

There are hockey fans who support every political party out there so this is not the site to chat about it.

Never called you a "lib-tard", bud. I don't know what your politics are and I don't give a (frank).

But doubling down on accusations of me "simping" for Rogan just screams that you're the triggered one here, not me.

I'm not laying down a frothing with rage defence of Joe. I've admitted that I disagree with him on a number of things and that I find some of his guests massively retarded.

But just because he has some douchebags on the JRE or there are ideas being discussed that I don't like doesn't bother me on the whole.

I don't see why people are so threatened by his existence or his supposed "platforming" of bad ideas.

For the record, I never mentioned anything political.

But sure, I'll stop talking about Joe and focus on hockey (which may be more controversial).

Bret Weinstein is either a pure con man, and/or he just never got over being the smartest kid in grade 6, so his shtick now is claiming he will ultimately be vindicated for his radical discovery that 2 + 2 = 5. All that he speaks is bullpoop, much like the insane idiot RFK JR.

Rogan continues to soil himself with these guests, which is too bad because he gets a lot of good ones. But those same good guests are available on lots of other podcasts by discerning people who are good interviewers and aren't part of the embarrassing conspirastan sideshow to which Rogan has relegated himself. That's the danger of thinking smoking toad venom makes you discerning.

Nah.

We should be allowed to assault Nazi’s in the street. To warn anyone else getting the itch to (frank) around. Show them the find out part immediately.


As for the pedo’s, of course they’ll inspire others. People believe anything these days. So absolutely not. They can’t have a platform either.

I’m sure there’s other examples. Free speech isn’t absolute speech. Freedom to live in a safe and open society trumps it.

For the record, I never mentioned anything political.

I get it, but bringing up someone like Joe does indeed make the topic about political opinions.

Thank you.

Trade everyone
Trade no one
