“If you throw a lot of shit out there, there’s some point at which [saying] ‘I’m just raising questions’ is not a valid thing,” Murray said. “You’re not raising questions. You’re not asking questions. You’re telling people something … I feel you’ve opened the door to quite a lot of people. You’ve now got a big platform and have been throwing out counter-historical stuff but a very dangerous kind.”

“But then why listen to their views on Churchill?” Murray countered. “It’s pretty hard to listen to somebody who says, ‘I don’t know what I’m talking about, but now I’m going to tell you what I think.’ If we all pretend Churchill was the bad guy of the 20th century, at some point, you’re going to lead people down a path where they think that’s the view, and that’s horseshit of the most profound kind.”

2. Rogan is an episode away from wondering whether the Nazis were done dirty

by the Brits and Americans.

He's beyond fascist-curious at this point.

Bill Maher is heading his way, too.

3. "I'm just raising questions..."

Oh. That schtick again.

Yes, it is not really raising a question. It's putting a question mark at the end of something with the intention of making people think the answer isn't already known -- when, in fact, it is -- so that you can then lead them down a path of misinformation.

4. Glad to see someone pushing back on this horse shit.

"Reaction among Rogan’s viewers has been divided, with some being rankled by the idea that guests should be experts on a subject in order to discuss it, while others felt that Murray had a point and that the podcast has become counter-factual to an extreme."

This is part of the problem. So many know nothings talking about things they have no knowledge or very limited knowledge about. Then rejecting facts and expertise.

5. Because

Experts are "elitist" according to them so therefore lying.

8. Joe Rogan is a shitty, fucked up, MAGA-friendly fuckhead who platforms pedophiles with his shitty podcast.

[Onthefly]

10. Rogan is an elitist opportunist

No knowledge or substance. Rants to support the white supremacists and oligarchs.
