And those people doing the harassing are a tiny group of the mentally ill who are obsessed with these topics and lash out at anyone the media shines a spotlight on. Being a public figure sucks because you are immediately the target of sick individuals feeding their own delusions. Making them out to be representative of any audience is a mistake.

He would have taken pride of that in his audience. There’s some chance he may actually take offense to your comment. Aside from that, why would it be a mistake if someone intentionally cultivated that? there’s been plenty of cult leaders who’ve cultivated terrible audiences. I’m not making a broad generalization about someone with general appeal like Joe Rogan, but there are some bad people out there, some self identified.
