So you think Rogan has more influence than the CDC's guidelines that are adopted as legistation for the most part - masking children, vaccines for 5-11 year-olds, ignoring natural immunity, not releasing data?
You don't think he gets negative press or death threats?
Not to mention Fauci has a direct link to COVID, and has admitted to openly lying "for your own good". Rogan has a diverse assortment on his show, and admits he is not an expert. You cannot hold him responsible for anyone's ignorance or inability to think for themselves. However, when bodies of so-called authority or expert credentials make policy you and your family will have to live by, that is more of a concern of mine, and where I turn my attention. You are free to go after Rogan. A lot of influencers have millions of listeners, and they speak in isolation without lengthy dialogues with any guests. Mainstream media does one-minute edited blurbs for you to digest like pablum. And they carry forward the status quo. Look at how much they have been collectively wrong, or misleading, sometimes intentionally.
- unclebucknasty 5y ago>So you think Rogan has more influence than the CDC's guidelines That's not really the point but, for some, yes, he does have more influence. That "some" apparently includes you. >You don't think he gets negative press or death threats? Again, not the point. You asked why Fauci and others weren't challenged. My response was that, not only is he challenged, but he's also been the target of personal attacks, conspiracy theories, and death threats. >Rogan has a diverse assortment on his show, and admits he is not an expert Yet, he continuously pushes a counter-mainstream narrative that you seem to be repeating here. >However, when bodies of so-called authority or expert credentials make policy you and your family will have to live by To each his/her own, but I think those credentials are meaningful. We've had expert public health guidance for decades brought to us by the "so-called experts" and it's generally served us well, as evidenced by the fact that you've probably never had polio, measles, diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, etc. And, you're also not likely to die from a case of diarrhea. >You are free to go after Rogan. Yes. I know. But, I wasn't going after him, as much as pointing out the reality that people (seemingly yourself included) respect his opinions over those of public health officials.
