    this just feels like doing leftist joe rogan except for actual joe rogan. If you're gonna aim for the stars I feel like deplattform Joe Rogan would be about as doable and a lot more useful than "change Joe Rogans mind on this thing"

      You think it’s easier to deplatform (whatever that means lol, how do you deplatform someone who has their own platform) Joe Rogan than change his mind? To paraphrase a tweet I think I saw once, I could convince Joe Rogan he was gay with a 30-min conversation. Someone who voted for Bernie and Trump couldn’t change their mind?

        And it'd last about that long afterwards. Dude has dragnet ideology and that dragnet is whoever he last spoke to.

          And his fan base might hold it a little longer. You didn’t answer how you plan to deplatform one of the most platformed people on earth

            Why would they?

            True, my criticism was that Drew Pavlou also didn't lay out any plans as to how to get Joe Rogan to change his mind for good and if you're just wishful thinking, might aswell wish for the better thing
