    dude needs to just take a few weeks off. he is making things worse every single day by commenting on stuff he does not vet and does not know anything about.

    he is getting 100 million bucks. maybe say, hire a fucking factchecker prior to tweeting??

    Far more views than most any other podcast.  
    This is why they gave him so much money.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Spotify isnt backing down, and isnt booting Joe.  Good for them.  As I said, support Joe 100%, he's a hero.

    TP didn't back down either. 
    As for Joe still being on Spotify goes, well, even the losers get lucky sometimes.

    Sorry, I shouldn't poke fun.  Just kidding around 'cause it's hard to take this stuff seriously sometimes.  But of course the irony here is that what we're talking about with  Rogan is the disinformation he's been spreading about COVID which is not joking matter.  Something often even as serious as a heart attack.

    Either way he is set.  Spotify is benefitting from Joe more than the other way around.  Joe was massive even before the deal for 100 million.  He had his podcast on YouTube, apple music, all platforms.  He signed the deal for exclusivity, and actually limited his potential earnings.  He should be talking to Elon about starting a new platform literally ASAP.  This whole thread was a bunch of lefties talking about the dent they made in Spotify's stock, even though its an industry wide trend not related to Joe.  Joe forms new platform with Elon, a pro free speech platform, and 50 percent of Spotify leaves within minutes.  He'd become a billionaire.  He'd make way more money.  We've said this before, but Joe is not cancellable.  He's just not.  I stood by him 10 years ago.  I stood by him this week.  I stand by him now.  Period.  He's a hero.

    The issue isnt that Joe speaks truth to power.  Lots of people do that.  What makes him such a danger to the system and TPTB is that he speaks for the powerless.  Thats the difference.  He gives those people a voice, and I unequivocally support him.

    The idolatry of Rogan seems a bit much to me. Essentially he brings okay interview skills and has a range of guests on. That he's a hero to some reflects a void in media rather than anything unique to Rogan.

    I dont know, if someones a hero to someone seems silly to say, no he's not my hero.  Jon Stewart dealt with the same thing.  Trevor Noah deals with it too.  Jimmy Kimmel dressed in blackface 20 years ago, and had girls dancing in bikinis on trampolines, the minute he came out against Trump he became the most trusted name in late night comedy.  When Jon was hosting, for years college kids would tell him, "You are my ONLY source of news information".  You've got to be able to call out ALL forms of hero worship if thats the tack you are taking.  Not just the partisan side of the coin.  Jon got big for the same reason too.   The point is asinine anyways, because if the mainstream media weren't partisan corporate mouthpieces and government shills and stooges, then people wouldn't be looking elsewhere for news content, be it Jon, or Joe.  Its not Joe's fault, they latched onto his show in that paradigm.  Its kind of like those morons who when they dont like a movie go "I could have made that movie!".  Well...you didnt.  So...

    Joe and Tucker are the woke mobs white whales.  And Joe is not cancelable.  He can't be deplatformed.  End of discussion.

    What will it be next?  "Misinformation" didnt work.  "Racism" didn't work.  My guess is they will try to link his fans to Jan 6.  Either way, I stand by Joe.

    I’ve never heard anyone say Jon Stewart was their hero. Although he’s immensely more talented than Rogan.
