A sad day for the freedom of speech , when highly qualified phds and medical doctors are not allowed to challenge "the" science.

"This is for the record. History is written by the victor. History is filled with liars. If he lives, and we die, his truth becomes written - and ours is lost. Shepherd will be a hero, 'cause all you need to change the world is one good lie and a river of blood. He's about to complete the greatest trick a liar ever played on history. His truth will be the truth. But only if he lives, and we die." — Captain Price's speech in the intro to Endgame.

Err, aren't the pulled episodes about his use of the N word, not about challenged science?

Those videos were out there in plain view when he signed with Spotify. millions of people had seen them. so it's pretty hard for me to belive that just now this became an issue.

Are we really going to pretend the N word debacle isn't a result of character assassination directly from those pissed off about the controversial COVID stuff? Hardly anybody gave a fuck about these 70 episodes until it became fashionable to beat on Rogan for his questionable and controversial COVID shows. It's pretty clear people were just searching for some way to hurt Rogan, usually the best way to do so is to blame someone for sexual misconduct or racism which magically only appears once they're on the chopping block for engaging in some other controversial but less damning behavior.

Pressuring Rogan to remove episodes is just a convenient way to say "gotcha." It's a tic-for-tat from the ultimatum of the others threatening to remove their own stuff if Rogan didn't.

Strangely, Neil Young isn't canceled for homophobia and the related use of the "F" word. The woke are all about power, the rest is a smoke screen.

Young's use of the "F" word is simply not reported by the party outlets, so hardly anyone knows.

Like Robert Malone, the vaccinated anti-vaxxer? The “doctor” who never completed residency and has absolutely no clinical experience?

I’m confused, are you bringing up that he’s vaccinated to discredit him as being hypocritical or otherwise dishonest?

If so that’s a very weird position. It can be entirely rational for someone to believe the vaccine is the best choice for them personally, while also being skeptical of the pharmaceutical industry, public health institutions, and the media.

After I got vaccinated and my wife and I experienced the myocarditis (although we're both over 45), I turned against the mRNA vaccines and the method of giving them without aspiration. I was never fond of the adenovirus ones as there's enough science against that vector.

At this point calling someone anti-vaxxer is the new ad-hominem fallacy as an intellectually lazy way to attempt to discredit someone without actually examining the merits of their arguments. Anti-vaxxer is also an incredibly vague term, to some people might just mean they're against mandates or forcing someone to take test or vaccine under pain of quarantine to engage in interstate travel (see Hawaii).

Indeed. When hundreds of scientists send a letter raising concerns around “the” “science” published on a platform, it would be great if those platforms took that to heart.
