Hundreds of Scientists Sign Open Letter Calling Joe Rogan Podcast “Mass-Misinformation Events”
"By allowing the propagation of false and societally harmful assertions, Spotify is enabling its hosted media to damage public trust in scientific research"
Well isnt this ironic?
So who are these scientists? Who do they work for and what scope are they in? Nice vague claims. I also dont recall Rogan claiming any expertise or telling people not to listen to their doctors. Also I'm not sure this can even become anything without any direct examples of harm and what kind of harm. Are people claiming Rogan treated them under the premise he is doctor? Lmao.
This is theater. Probably because Rogan is suing CNN isnt he?
Be more critical, ffs. Just because something agrees with your politics doesnt make it solid. This stunt IS propaganda. It's not going anywhere.
People are allowed to give opinions and speak and access info. Even bad info. It's the responsibility of the consumer.
And answer this... if "scientists" can sue people for spreading misinfo about medical treatments and illness, why the fuck are anti vax(not covid vaccine "anti vax".....I'm talking "mmr causes autism" anti vax) people not being dealt with? How about shit bag scammers who treat peoples CANCER with bullshit or tell them to use fucking salve?
Good grief. Yeah pretend they can sure Rogan because his podcasts criticizes POLITICAL narratives. That's a big offense.
The left has a big problem with wanting people censored, deplatformed or "held accountable". They need to knock it iff and leave free speech alone.
Misinfo should be countered effectively with the better info, which can definately be done with civil discourse.
