Comments by "LS O\x27Brien" (@lsobrien) on "Joe Rogan "Horrifically Uninformed" On White South African Farmers" video.
It's clear Rogan entered a dubious echo chamber long ago. (Edit: Someone asked for proof: marketing himself as a "centrist" (the new self-designation of cowardly right-wingers); employing right-wing talking points, i.e. Chomsky is against free speech, these Marxists are really out of control, etc.; believing and promoting Jordan Peterson as one of the world's premier intellectuals (he really does adore that charlatan); attending circle jerks with the IDW; and now parroting alt-right lies about geopolitics, while claiming "it's all you hear".)

@Pluggey2 And how does having on lefty guests occasionally on his show effect what I said? If I had argued "Joe Rogan is a right winger because he has promoted right wingers", you would've had a point. But I didn't, so you don't.

@Pluggey2 What did I do to deserve every cliché under the sun? I could respond in kind and say, "oh, you're just doing the typical right wing thing: instead of responding to the points I've made you're attacking me, personally. (And in the most robotic way.) Is it because you're a dumdum?" But I'm better than that.

@Pluggey2 So if you have contact with people you disagree with in any way, you're not part of an echo chamber? Ah, I see you've amended your comment to add "(nearly)". But instead of editing, which would show that, you deleted the original. Sneaky.

@jimbob3030 That's all true, but it doesn't negate what I said. To use such talking points in the first place - and now to say "it's all you hear" - suggests he's entered a very particular echo chamber.

@Pluggey2 Sentences like this are created when stupid people play smart: "(Factually) the highest art of not being part of an echo chamber."

@mmaNorway1 Uh, I know you were just dying to personalize some cliché you've seen 12,000 times before, but try thinking about your comment for 2 seconds. ... ... Done it yet? It doesn't work, does it?

@Pluggey2 Hold on lads, Scott is going FULL PSEUD.

@Pluggey2 Marketing himself as a "centrist" (the new self-designation of cowardly right-wingers); employing right-wing talking points, i.e. Chomsky is against free speech, these Marxists are really out of control, etc.; believing and promoting Jordan Peterson as one of the world's premier intellectuals (he really does adore that charlatan); attending circle jerks with the IDW; and now parroting alt-right lies about geopolitics, while claiming "it's all you hear". Enough?

@jimbob3030 Yes... but are you really saying anything? Who isn't playing to their audience? Also: bug eating doesn't discount hours upon hours of dumb political talk.

@Pluggey2 By that standard, what news source/podcast could not be described as an echo chamber? Even Alex Jones has had on what he considers gatekeepers and degenerates. Besides that, you've now made clear you can't separate "Joe" from the show. The show will have all sorts of guests on to broaden its audience; Joe, however, can spend and seems to spend the rest of his days listening to one side - hence my previous stated FACTS (you like that?).
