Looks like the stick is working.

But for real, how big of asshole are you that you have to wait until there are repercussions before you get off your ass to do the right thing?

Ignorant and narcissistic mofos.

Closed the joe Rogan video after 15 seconds. Of course he spins the passport into a “people of colour/immigrant” thing when he pretty clearly couldn’t care about those groups any other time other than to spin it against vaccines etc.

Haven’t listened since he went to Spotify. Seems like a good choice

GLOW 08-26-2021 06:48 AM

unless he has someone mma related or a credible scientist like degrasse i'm not too interested.

westopher 08-26-2021 07:02 AM

I’ve always liked Joes standup, but it’s too bad he basically is Oprah for incels now.

Same. He actually had on Dr Osterholm right when covid hit, if you remember I posted that podcast early on in this very thread. It was one of the best sources for information on covid at the time.

And then he started getting weird, and then the Comedy Store closed, and then he went nuts. And somehow he became a right wing weirdo right before our eyes. Spotify just added that extra barrier to make it easy to ignore.

I listen to his podcast but I'm pretty choosy on which episodes. Since he's went to spotify probably 10%, i like the comedians and when he has guys like David Choe, Jake the Snake or the undertaker on because I love the stories. I have no interest in listening to any Doctor, scientist, journalist, political activist those are not the conversations I have any interest in I want to be entertained.

I was an OG listener way back in the day, stopped listening over the last few years now.

He's clearly pivoted to a different type of audience. His personal relationships with the figureheads of the "intellectual dark web" seem to have really changed his perspective, for the bad.

You see this quite often on the internet nowadays, with certain media personalities. There's a lot of money to be made catering to that "incel", "alt-right", "red pill" audience of younger white men, and you'll see that literal pivot to cater to that demographic, especially when the initial more moderate or left leaning supporters begin to fall off.

Joe Rogan is all about $$$, don't ever let his "I'm just a dumb guy looking to learn stuff", schtick fool you.

SkinnyPupp 08-26-2021 04:56 PM

If you guys haven't listened to Joe's anti vaxx rants lately, it's gotten really disturbing. He had Rhonda Patrick on the other day, who BTW he would take her word on EVERYTHING even when she talks about in vitro studies and rat studies. She's the first to talk about the correlation between vitamin D deficiency and covid deaths. The "IDW" took that to mean Vitamin D cures covid (and now they promote horse dewormer as the cure)

Anyway, he argued with her about vaccines, using his personal anecdotes against her collection of data of millions of people. Over and over again, trying to discredit vaccines. (longish clip, I could only tolerate the first 40 seconds)


Then you go back and listen to him talk to Mike Osterholm about vaccines:


It's amazing how corrupted he's become. I don't think he "got stupider", he just caters to the weirdos now, instead of being a platform of information where a dumb guy asks smart people questions.

mikemhg 08-26-2021 05:10 PM

My Youtube algorithm put up that Dr. Patrick video last night, I had to turn it off after a few minutes.

You're totally right Skinny.

He used to laud over that doctor when she'd come on and validate all his claims on vitamins and supplements (supplements that he sells through ONIT, conveniently enough).

Now since she's a proponent of vaccines, he's deciding to argue with her based on some anecdotal stories of myocarditis that he heard through his anti-vax nutcase friends.

The guy is gross, it's a pity that his followers think he's the gospel and eat off every word he spews.

68style 08-26-2021 05:18 PM

Jesus the hypocrisy between those 2 clips… how can he not be ashamed of himself in any way

Comedian who's no longer funny, but finds a new way of getting much needed attention. He's loving it. What a sap. Why do people have this need to follow someone? Jesus..............

Study regarding side effects of the vaccine, and comparing it to the risks of those same side effects from covid

Several articles out about this this morning, but the herald seems to get a little more in depth

Jist of it is blod clots, strokes, etc are a side effect from both AZ and Pfizer vaccines but those same side effects are up to hundreds of times higher from covid

Health Canada authorizes use of Moderna shot in children 12 and older

Health Canada has authorized a second COVID-19 vaccine for use in older children, saying it considers Moderna's vaccine to be "safe and effective" for those between the ages of 12 and 17.

The list of side effects noted are just over the past few months while data keeps being collected and will be interesting to find out the long term side effects database in comparison to covid once the pandemic ends.

What will be the most interesting part is that if there are minimal/no long term side effects in any notable percentage is how people who refused it will just make things up like they have with regular vaccines in the past.

Yeah, or just plain lie like that massive cunt on tik tok.

For those unaware, some shithead mouthbreathing bitch made a series of 'videos' showing various side-effects from her supposed vaccine, but it's fake as fuck and super cringe. Except for the fact that she started a gofundme and amassed some ridiculous $. But I guess if you're giving your kids horse dewormers then you'll believe anything...smh.

68style 08-27-2021 01:30 PM

Who made the first ever fake symptoms video? Was it that girl who was like crunking backwards down sidewalks?

pastarocket 08-27-2021 02:02 PM

867 new cases in BC. The highest number of cases in four months. :facepalm:

The measures in place are so silly... I run a floor hockey at a Vancouver community centre... I had read that masks weren't required for indoor sports and I'm confident everyone in our group is vaccinated. I got an email from the community centre today advising of the following measures:

1) You must walk into the community centre with a mask on
2) You can remove your mask when running around playing
3) When you shift off and you're on the sidelines waiting for your next turn, you have to put a mask on

So...... you're in a sealed gym with 17 other guys running full out and coming into contact with them playing hockey which is always going to be contact in some way and it's okay to be maskless, but when you go off to the bench you have to put a mask on? Am I the only one that thinks that's just stupid? I mean... if they're worried just cancel it. That's not preventing shit all.
