LT42 long story short, he’s a quack who’s more interested in playing the victim role than anything else. i’m pretty sure he’s joe rogan’s main source for all the nonsense he believes about covid, that’s about all i need to know about him.

      Who is this Joe Rogan character? Where did he come from? I just watched the podcast and most of it comes across as quackery.

        mono-stereo his podcast was good pre-covid. he had a wide variety of guests and he’d let them talk. since covid, he’s become absolutely insufferable, while spreading a lot of misinformation. somewhere along the way he’s transitioned from being inquisitive to an “expert” who needs to interject his own ignorant opinions over top of guests who are actual experts.

            Unfortunately, there’s plenty of enlightenment-signalling podberks out there who think they’re smart because they repeat, ad nauseam, the ramblings of such folk like rogan and pas it off as their own independent ‘thinking’.

                      you’re almost not wrong. i’m all for discourse, but sweet jesus most people are really dumb.

                          mono-stereo Never listened to him, not once, also literally no idea why he’s so ‘big’ but that’s the Internet I suppose.

                            303abuser I did some reading on Ivermectin and what he says checks out. Not that I’ll be downing it in any time soon but its not “Horse paste” which seems to be the latest nomenclature. Strange times. Some craic if it was the cure and social media killed off the idea because of Joe Rogan.

                                I’ve got no idea whether Ivermectin should or shouldn’t be used against Covid, but much of the scepticism and ridicule around it that I’ve seen appears to relate to the fact that it’s commonly used on horses - well I’m just going to point out that a certain tranquiliser commonly used on horses is also quite popular with humans, so it doesn’t seem worthy of immediate dismissal on that front at least.

                                  I think the fact that lunatic anti-vaxxers back the thing is considerably more of an issue that whether it’s made for horses or not

                                    A disinformation campaign against a cheap, generic drug waged by certain interested parties who likely stand to make huge profits from Big Pharma’s vaccines?

                                    I would be genuinely surprised if such a thing was happening.

                                        Along_the_Wire I’m just pointing out that it could be a cheap tactic to discredit it, which ultimately has no relevance as to whether it’s actually useful or not.

                                        Likewise citing that it’s backed by “lunatic anti-vaxxers” could be a lazy attempt to discredit by association, which again has no actual bearing on its potential efficacy.

                                        Again, I genuinely don’t feel informed enough to weigh in on whether it may or may not be beneficial, but I’m just noting some snide deflection which doesn’t contribute anything to the relevant debate.

                                            I think this will be a surprise to most but it’s actually most commonly used on humans with great success (Africa mostly). Which is why the online branding of it as a drug for horses only seems a little cynical to me and suggests a smear campaign. I wonder why?
                                            I’ve bought bangers off shady bastards in dark corners of clubs for many a year, passing said bangers onto friends who danced, skipped and whistled whilst necking them without so much as a by your leave. I’d defo sample this stuff if push came to shove. I’m not on board with the current withchunt. Perception is key. I do agree that Rogan is a fuckin douchebag however. I only watched the podcast for the guests, which I’m sure 99% of viewers did anyway.

                                              No snide. Anti-vaxxers are pushing for full tests and big pharma has form of something gets in their way ie AZ
