I think there is always some bias, regardless of perceived insulation from external influence. I'm guessing HN attracts entrepreneurial types and Joe Rogan is well-liked by male entrepreneurs.
- CSMastermind 4y agoThere are plenty of people here who dislike Rogan's show but also don't want to support someone being called a toxic human being.
- mr90210 4y agoI suppose we lost the ability of asking a person to explain why they are calling another person “toxic human being”. Maybe the author knows something no one knows

- sudden_dystopia 4y agoAnd you are trying to spin masculinity in general as toxic. There is no such thing as toxic masculinity or toxic femininity. Some people are just jerks.

- mr90210 4y agoI am familiar with those, and he apologized, nevertheless here is my take (from an ex-avid listener of his podcast): It is nearly impossible for a human being to talk about open topics for more than 10 years without saying upsetting things. Peace!
- mr90210 4y agoYou were downvoted as if you had attacked a deity.
- sudden_dystopia 4y agoYou seem to think he has the biggest show in the world but yet nobody actually watches him? Of course it got downvoted vehemently because he has a huge audience and his audience likes him. Not to mention all the misinformation that is constantly being spread about him leads people to want to defend him. Not rocket science.
- kzrdude 4y agoWhichever way you are voted, there's some diversity of people on this forum. For example, you and me are here and we don't like Joe Rogan.
