The anti-Joe Rogan thing is stupid and it will not work

in conservative •  3 years ago 

So here we go again with just about anything becoming a left vs. right thing and this is what is appearing to be the case with the most successful Podcaster of all time, Joe Rogan. Main stream media, which becomes less and less mainstream as they days pass thankfully, really don't like Rogan because he absolutely destroys them in viewership.

While they want to point the finger about how Joe is spreading misinformation I believe that even they are aware of the fact that the reason why people are tuning out from CNN, MSNBC, FOX etc is specifically because they themselves have been spreading misinformation for a very long time and the public has become increasingly aware of this over the years.

When Neil Young demanded that either him or Joe Rogan had to go from Spotify, I think that was a pretty easy decision for Spotify to make as Neil Young was kind of a non issue. I like this statement that someone had to say on Twitter I guess it is from.

Joni Mitchell also decided to remove her music from Spotify, although there is some talk about how this was something that was actually determined was going to happen more than a year ago and she or her team is simply putting her in the fray in order to draw attention to her name. I have no idea if that is true and I don't really care.

There were some other artists who made the same decision but other than David Crosby, I've never heard of who the other people were. There are also artists who don't actually have the legal capacity to remove their music because of contracts or because they don't actually own the rights to their own songs. At the end of the day, I don't think that most people are going to care if these artists remove their music and Spotify probably wont either since Rogan gets Spotify far more listeners than all of these artists combined by a long shot.

There have been some funny pictures circulating in regards to this

I like most people have Spotify, but I do not pay for a subscription and I don't really see the point in doing so. Sure you have to deal with a commercial every now and then and can't make your own playlists but I honestly don't really care about that. I'm not that addicted to technology and am pretty happy about this fact.

What's so funny and predictable about all of this is that if you look at the political affiliation of all the people who actually are removing their music from Spotify, they are all lefties so far. This is because Covid, just like anything else, became political a long time ago and the world is filled with idiots who can't see any further than their preferred political party in the United States. I would imagine that most of the people who are now claiming that Rogan should be cancelled haven't even ever listened to his show and they should.

Joe doesn't try to convince anyone to think a certain way and he invites guests onto his show for all across the political spectrum and let's them do most of the talking. Joe doesn't claim to be an expert and he really doesn't have a political affiliation. He's kind of somewhere in the middle as I feel most sane people are there days.

If by some strange twist of events Spotify were to censor Rogan, or fire him, Spotify would probably lose a lot of their overall audience and Joe could move to literally any platform, including one that he himself forms, and all of his followers would go over there. Joe Rogan doesn't actually NEED Spotify, it's the other way around.

I think this is why Spotify hasn't really even said a great deal about this fiasco and are probably hoping that Joe wont either.

Here's an idea: If you don't like what Joe has to say on his shows, you don't have to listen to it. We don't just get to ban anything or anyone that disagrees with us, ya jackasses. Good riddance to Neil Young and whoever else follows suit. These folks are only hurting themselves by doing this sort of thing. Rogan cannot be defeated, deleted, or cancelled and to the people who are anti-Joe Rogan now, I challenge you to at least listen to a few of his shows because they are really entertaining and they make you think. Maybe the thinking part is what annoys so many people out there. Don't think! Just comply!

The mainstream media is desperately trying to keep their doomsday narrative relevant. They will do anything and make up anything to try and take down Joe Rogan. Personally, I don't really watch his show but its really crazy how much negative treatment he's been getting.

the thing is that the positive far outweighs the negative but the media doesn't report on that. Joe is just caught up in the middle of the usual right vs. left hatred debate and because he doesn't tow the line for leftists he is deemed an enemy. Thankfully, he is much more powerful than the people that are seeking to bring him down.

I rarely listen to all of any of his podcasts because I don't have 3 hours a day spare for something like that. They are pretty good though and depending on the guest, I might listen to all of it but it takes me several days to get it done.
