  1. Neil and Joni are misinformed about JRE and what he does, they've been duped by corporate media who see JRE as competition and counter-message to theirs. I even wonder if Neil and Joni have ever watched JRE, like his interview with Sanjay Gupta. I'm from their generation and appalled these anti-authoritarian heroes have now taken a knee to corporate interests, shame on them.

  2.  @rookmaster7502  I don't listen to conspiracy theorists, like those who think the earth is flat or man did not walk on the moon, but I will listen to JRE when he has someone on I'm interested in, and often impressed with his rigorous questioning after first researching the subject before the interview, something corporate media rarely does.

  3.  @benghazi4216  Would you say Jordan Peterson and Eric Weinstein were "spouting ridiculous things"? By accident I listened for a moment to Jim Gaffigan say ridiculous things about the Spanish Inquisition, but he's a comic, so my expectation was low to start with. In the 1980s/90s these same musicians complained about Parental Warnings" on their music, and now want their own "warnings" on things they don't understand, how ironic.

The right to freedom of expression, including the right to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, is a human right which enables everyone to enjoy a range of other human rights, including the right to health. Freedom of expression is vitally important during complex public health crises." - AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

  5.  @Turtledove2009  "questioned" is good, what was Joe's conclusion? I know Buzz Aldrin punched a guy for saying so, and when I tell people Buzz performed a Catholic Communion with real wine on the moon, they call me crazy. What do you think?

  6.  @benghazi4216  Thanks, if you think Peterson is a "grifter", that is context, and no, saying cloth masks are not very effective does not "kill people", quite the opposite.

  7.  @benghazi4216  Odd, Joe Rogan brought up cloth masks in his statement on Spotify in regard to the disclaimer? Look, I don't believe you are commenting in good faith, so let's leave it.

  8.  @fuhrergoyim6579  sure, troll, both only have a few years to live, are multi-millionaires with FU money, so no, that's not it. It's all ego and misplaced concepts of social justice.

  9.  @azkamil  Yes, Caveat Emptor, Neil Young's buddy David Crosby spewed all kinds of conspiracy theory garbage back in the 1960s, and so did he.

  10.  @AnnieWarbux  You should look at the demo for the unvaxxed, then I might agree with you, LOL.

  11. ​ @borjaetxebarria7746  Free expression provides the safest framework for the greatest good, for the greatest number. Germany had ONE science, so did the Soviet Union, with results very similar to the one you propose could happen. It did happen. Without individual agency, all your horrible predictions will come true.

  13.  @mapetlv  How? I've not provided any context, just the text itself. What does it "represent" to you?

  14.  @mapetlv  That's fair, I did get the quote from Amnesty's website directly, but you are now saying they are concerned specifically about the "Joe Rogan type of misinformation", where can I find that on their website? And as so many have asked, what specifically has JR presented as "information" rather than "opinion" which is false, fraudulent, or given with malicious intent? The UK and Canada have also passed laws restricting free speech, why did you not include those countries, or that the U.S. is under threat of losing its 1st Amendment, as polls on campuses show. Check out the organization called FIRE. I'm sure Amnesty would not want to be associated with JR, too bad, their words apply to him, just as much as they apply to the people they support. That's social justice.

  15.  TRE45ON is Bat5hit Crazy. By Dittzx333**  I am 67, from JM and NY's generation, and they are wrong. I also watched the full video with Gupta, and it is clear JR was libeled by CNN and Gupta would not admit it until he saw the clip, even then, Gupta later back-tracked when on CNN. I only check out JRE when he has a long-form discussion with someone I'm interested in.

  16. The "lie" is about JRE, portraying him as a right-wing extremists when he is not. JRE does not "dishonestly" present Covid information, it is not "misinformation", He interviewed CNN's Sanjay Gupta who admitted CNN lied about JRE and that it was wrong. JRE has 11 million subscribers, more than many corporate media brands, and why they are after him.

  17. Yeah, I'm of Neil's generation, he's always been an @ss, but I'm disappointed with Joni, have been for sometime, ever since she got into Scientology.
