@kennethburmeister8119 ... I am not emotional, I am passionate. You are correct that Joe doesn't owe me a damned thing, but rather owes something to himself... dignity. He is playing fair with an intellectually dishonest opponent who does not want to hear him apologize.. they want him to be gone. Joe is too experienced and too sharp not to get this, here he is trying to placate an angry mob that wants his head on a platter.
.
Is it fair of me to ask that HE do something for the rest of our benefit...? no, it is not. He has no responsibility to anyone but himself and, in the context of his podcast... Spotify. It is certainly his choice to handle this his way, but he will come to find out that his bending the knee to unreasonable demands, will be a net loss on both ends. They will NEVER accept any apology, regardless of how many times or how sincere it may be and he has lost respect from many who once supported him. I have no business putting the weight of society on his shoulders, but of all people that tell them to F off... Joe Rogan is in better position than nearly anyone in this country.
.
Even though I have no right to demand this of Joe Rogan, what he has done has most certainly caused harm. It has further emboldened the outrage mob and, in turn, emboldened Spotify to make additional demands that Joe bend the knee for "peace". There can be no peace with the outrage mob and Rogan has poised himself to learn this lesson the hard way.
.
Peace, Kenneth :)
