This dude's been just about banned from every social media site/app. Not good for him at all.
What does everyone else think of this controversial character?
It's not. Someone is just unable to acknowledge sh1tty behaviour.
Indeed.
Read a thread on Reddit by a high school teacher who noticed some of the young men in her classroom (14/15 year olds) were suddenly becoming much more hostile towards her and openly challenging her and discipline was becoming a problem. She discovered they were watching and sharing this guy's clips amongst themselves.
No there's just recognition of when someone is being psychopathically cruel.
What is it with the cognitive dissonance that's resorted to, to downplay the behaviour/abdicate responsibility of people like Tate and Alex Jones?
A nasty, sexist, misogynistic, sex trafficking, borderline pedo is deplatformed.
Good.
Borderline pedo lol
I don't see why it's not good for him. He's a multi millionaire. He's set for life
Or Carzone.
Joe Rogan is rarely off the mark we do need a few alfas, i personally prefer them to the hysterical ones we have now weak, full of feelings, crying wearing skinny jeans that are lowering the sperm count by the day. Bring a few alfas back please !!
People are all hating on Tate and ignoring the fact that 3 platforms can decide what you can listen to or not. But the same platforms cant interfere in small children accessing porn ! Whose taking who for the proverbial ride, wake up look at the free speech suppression that is over active now !
Sounds like he would fit in well with some here
I hate it when I'm right.
Just another scumbag grifter who realised there's a lot of money to be made telling gullible and stupid people who to hate.
As an adult I'm able to find both objectionable - I don't feel pressure to pick and choose.
No idea who this lad was until I opened this thread or what he believes in although the snippet a few posts back from the fundraiser page makes me think he's a Grade A Arsehole.
But his freedom of speech is not being suppressed. Twitter, Facebook, etc. can let whoever they like on their site - they own it. If they wanted to ban anyone who supports Man United or Liverpool they can.
If you think that Joe Rogan is rarely off the mark, you are most likely in his target audience, which isn't that bright. That audience isn't completely intellectually retarded or anything like that, so I wouldn't worry too much, it's just on the lower end of the scale. In much the same way as dumb women are into things like astrology and MLM scams and being told that they're awesome/beautiful, dumb males are into crypto, conspiracy theories and being told that they're alphas.
They guys a genius ,he has used social media platforms to his advantage and has earned a packet and become basically world famous in about 6 months,
Now i don't agree with a word that he says & i doubt he does either but he has a plan & its worked,
It's also quite enjoyable to see some types get so upset by him , he is obviously playing a character & becoming hated is part of the game plan ,
Best course of action is to just ignore him until he goes away
Freedom of speech doesn't cover taunting the parent of a very ill child.
If a muslim guy or a trans woman said the same stuff about women, his fans would suddenly be concerned about misogyny.
I never heard of him until recently and I saw a couple videos online. He's arrogant and obnoxious but he made some very good points about men and today's society and how to battle depression etc.
I didn't see the other stuff that got him banned but an article in today's Times suggests that a video of him hitting his gf with a belt was sort of thing they did together. :-/
I know people won't even entertain the thought, but if you think for yourself, Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan don't always get it wrong. And I say that as a woman with feminist leanings. Give me them before this awful scumbag any day.
"Don't always get it wrong " is a very low bar
I wasn't being literal. What I mean is they're nowhere near as horrendous as they're made out to be.
Were you also not being literal when you said "give me them before this awful scumbag any day" because, again, that is a very low bar.
Yes they absolutely are.
Toxic bullies.
What has Rogan done that's bullying?
Peterson was a dick to that swimwear lady all right - just remembered that now, sorry. But are there no points at all made by him that you'd agree with?
Rogan is a dick to numerous people. Google Joe Rogan and bully and take your pick from there.
listen to the clip online where he abuses the qualified primatologist who tries to correct one of his fake stories and say that’s not bullying.
I would not see any added value in the opinions of someone like that.
Joe Rogan is a bullying POS. Google “Joe Rogan primatologist” and listen for yourself.
I’ve been aware of Tate for a few years. It’s strange to see him go from this obscure laughing stock to the new internet bogeyman #momo2022
An unrelenting tosser.
TopG
This is not their point of view on the issue they have claimed they are not liable for what is saod on their platform as they are an amenity. Amenities don't get to dictate free speech.
All the other stuff I don't care
I'd never heard of him before today but now we have two different threads about him?
I've known of Tate for a while and my opinion of him is low. He is Trump for the adolescent. He does quite a good job of presenting as smart, as erudite and almost philosophical, but? Much like Trump with a Sharpie, or Boris with his bombastic love of Greek and veneer of intellect...
It's shallow, a puddle with no great depth to plumb nor new knowledge to reveal. It is insidious tho, I have an 18y.o son and the widespread adoption of Tate's mantra is something I am aware of. He's got good social media, pumps out a good soundbite and grifts...
Jordan Peterson for the TikTok generation, a philosopher he ain't.
