It’s a tough situation. On one hand selective censorship shouldn’t be something anyone wants, but on the other hand you have highly powerful people like Joe Rogan spreading just straight misinformation at times and susceptible audiences (takes a look around) will eat it up because they don’t know any better.

I'd rather have misinformation than censorship.

Freedom of information doesnt mean freedom from stupidity.

This is dangerous what these spotify information nazis want to control.

Same for CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, etc.

No one is censoring them.

So in other words, the exact same thing 90% of media outlets do?

CNN, MSNBC, NYT, and WaPo spread misinformation every day. Except they actually sell it as factual news.

I've always felt Rogan presented himself as opinion with experts espousing their opinions.

Most talking head networks go out of their way to make themselves look like they are presenting actual news when they are presenting opinion.

Enjoy your next book burning.

CNN lies to their own viewers every day. Why don’t you demand that we censor their bullshite?

Please don’t tell me that you honestly believe that Mainstream Media is telling it to you straight?

If so, you are much dumber than your post makes you out to be.

It is downright un-American. No ifs, ands, or buts.

Yet here you go:

Tell me specifically what misinformation Rogan is spreading as fact.
