Why Joe Rogan and I sat down and talked — for more than 3 hours
Some think the way to deal with people who disagree with you is to cut them off. “I don’t even want to talk to them, they’re so crazy.”
De-platform them. Make them a pariah. Promote the idea that to even listen to them is a sin.
That’s a mistake, and it makes the culture ugly and intolerant.
I don’t know much about Dr. Gupta, but it was a good thing for him sit down for a chat with Joe Rogan.
It was also a good thing for Joe Rogan to call out CNN for its ridiculous attack on Rogan, and to ask Dr. Gupta how he feels about that.
We see a good example with Dr. Gupta. Yet, we see the opposite with those that have given death threats to Fox News’ Neil Cavuto for encouraging people to get vaccinated. Talk about an ugly and intolerant culture!
