He’s “just some dumb guy hearing people out” until he magically finds the need to push back with generic anti-vaccine talking points to guests who suggest the vaccine is a good idea. He knows what he’s doing for sure. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like Joe Rogan have realized that anti-vaxxers and people along that line looooooooooove to give out money like it's nobodies business, so of course they have latched onto that grift. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How 'bout dem Bears? There was an interview he did recently (before he got sick) where he was doing a podcast with an actual expert on viruses and started arguing with her and his main point was "Do you personally know anybody who's gotten sick from the vaccine? I have." and he kept repeating that line over and over again like his anecdotal evidence means a damn thing. He is 100000000% a grift when it comes to this subject and I don't even see how it can be argued at this point. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyPhil1781 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 I get why people are annoyed w/ Rogan though. He plays both sides of the fence and that drives people nuts. He's human though. He says dumb **** but he also gets some good thought provoking conversation started. I think my favorite thing about him (and I barely listen to his show) is that he actually let's people talk and doesn't talk over them. I really hate when podcasters don't let their guests speak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't listened to any of his thoughts on this except he facetiously toyed w/ suing CNN which I would be thrilled if he did b/c they obviously haven't learned from the Sandmann fiasco. I can't speak about anything else he's said b/c, like I said, I haven't listened to him about this. I really only listen to previous podcasts of his and nothing new. He's had some fantastic guests.

Xenos Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Anyways some good news for the vaccinated. https://news.yahoo.com/one-5-000-real-chances-183201138.html Quote In recent weeks, however, more data has become available, and it suggests that the true picture is less alarming. Yes, delta has increased the chances of getting COVID for almost everyone. But if you’re vaccinated, a COVID infection is still uncommon, and those high viral loads are not as worrisome as they initially sounded. How small are the chances of the average vaccinated American contracting COVID? Probably about 1 in 5,000 per day, and even lower for people who take precautions or live in a highly vaccinated community. Quote These numbers help show why the talking point about viral loads was problematic. It was one of those statements that managed to be both true and misleading. Even when the size of the viral loads are similar, the virus behaves differently in the noses and throats of the vaccinated and the unvaccinated. In an unvaccinated person, a viral load is akin to an enemy army facing little resistance. In a vaccinated person, the human immune system launches a powerful response and tends to prevail quickly — often before the host body gets sick or infects others. That the viral loads were initially similar in size can end up being irrelevant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
