    Really like the Tim Pool guy never seen him before.

    He did a great job pointing out their biases.

    Tweet "Learn to Code" get an instant suspension, tweet you want to kill the Covington kids "well you have to look at the context".

    Why didn't you ban Katy Griffin "well she didn't technically dox the kids buy ya we probably should of banned her"

    The lady makes my skin crawl.

    Finding it really hard to care about this twitter tiff. It was all covered by Dorsey already. Twitter is huge. Of course it's content moderation isn't going to be perfect. Tim Pool is being narrow minded and pedantic.

    All of these American companies have a liberal viewpoint which makes them unsuitable to moderate anything objectively. A number of cases were cited to them demonstrating where conservative voices said something for which they were banned, and then a person with a liberal viewpoint said something worse and they were not banned. The Twitter people kept hiding behind the ambiguity that they were afforded by the phrase "pattern of behaviour".

    If anybody on the conservative side had said what Kathy Griffin said they would have been banned. But the benefit of the doubt is always given to people who have a similar ideological viewpoint to Twitter.

    They are corporate entities though, not anything goes bastions of free speech. If they don't ban someone whose views align with theirs and ban someone who they don't agree with isn't that just kinda the rules of the game? People get very befuddled over that, surely, I'm not the only one who doesn't find it the least bit surprising?

    You're forgetting that a lot of Twitters action is based off of people reporting Tweets. You have a big Left\Right characteristics at play. The Left are outraged at everything and will report tweets. The Right are generally not as quick to temper or indeed that fussed if someone on the left says something ban worthy and as a result dont tend to report as many Tweets.
    Its impossible for Twitter to monitor every single account so sweeping generalizations about intent of certain phrases will be common.


    I'm definitely right leaning in my viewpoints but I honestly dont have a problem with what Twitter are doing. If someone is taking directions on how to act from Kathy Griffin then I think there's no hope for you regardless of how Twitter acts.

    That's what I always felt too. Often people complain about Twitter like its some public service. Go make/use another platform if it's so awful.

    The reason I came in here is to get you all to listen to 1250 Johann hari.

    IT IS SENSATIONAL

    Almost brought me to tears on a few occasions but it is an utterly fantastic spitfire of truth about the ridiculous policy regarding the war on drugs and the human impact in places like mexico and beyond.

    Johann explains it so well in plain english and outlines with proven results legalization has had in other countries.

    I cannot recommend a better listen for 3hrs of your life than the below


    Wow!!
    One of the best JRE podcasts ever!

    I went for Lost Connections as its narrated by Johann himself. I quite liked his voice in the podcast. Also having had sporadic issues with mental health over the years and dabbled with SSRI's, a lot of it resonated with me. I'm gonna listen to Chasing the Scream now (which I recall the podcast was more focused on e.g. failure of war on drugs). Chasing the Scream seem to be more highly rated and revered.

    I see the Alex Jones/rogan thing they recorded is gone off YouTube and the channel banned. The one they made a few days ago. Typical.

    They’ll be coming for Joe next.

    This American Life did a podcast about Alex Jones last week (Beware The Jabberwock) that gives a good background on him. Never realized just how damaging the Sandy Hook theories have been to parents of the kids. They spoke to one of the families who have had to move addresses 8 times.

    Joe isn't a complete ****ing dickhead inciting violence against parents of dead children so I reckon he'll be okay


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,809 ✭✭✭Hector Savage




    If you havent watched any of this PLEASE just skip to exactly 2 hours in and watch for 5 minutes, its possibly the funniest 5 minutes of this show ever! Joe goes for a piss and comes back to this...

    "Cats at the edge of the ice wall on flath earth pushing things off" almost made me sick laughing!

    ****ing awesome!!!
    He's a lunatic but so entertaining, I would love to go for a few pints with Alex and Eddie!!

    Only in America can someone like Alex be famous and not locked up somewhere,

    The Interdimensional bullsh*t he goes on with , like WTF are you on about ,

    How is he taken seriously at all is beyond me , he is like an much worse version of JAY from inbetweeners everything he says he makes up .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,809 ✭✭✭Hector Savage


    Actually listening on from that (it was funny) but jesus when he goes on about the interdimensional aliens, and that consciousness is like some giant comet going through the universe - fuxake .. too much.

    Joe Rogan should be careful, he has had on really good guests, Neill DeGrasse Tyson, Brian Cox, Sam Harris, Roger Penrose, Jonathan Haidt .... etc.

    These guys won't wanna be associated with this nonsense and might not come back, which will be a shame.

    There's quite a few in Europe too, David Icke, Gemma O'Doherty (here in Ireland) and there's quite a few Skandy ones too. But they've a tendency to orbit the Political fringes rather than full on Entertainment.


    When I saw that podcast pop up I was in work and read it as lasting 4minutes so I thought it was just a brief reach out from Rogan. 4 hours later I was still laughing my head off.

    Jre is probably the worlds leading podcast and is well known for his variety of guests - anyone in the world who goes on is nearly guaranteed a financial windfall re booksales, youtube hits and the general publicity it brings.

    Also Joe couldnt give a fuk if anyone didnt want to do his podcast, he has the best of the best begging him to get on! for the above reasons!

    Joe Rogan, having made up with Alex Jones, was on his Infowars the other night. And it turns out that Owen Benjamin, who had been bashing Joe Rogan (he refers to as Toe Rogan because he is small and bald), has had a row with Alex over his Jew bashing when he was presenting on Alex's show. It's like the WWE at this stage, I can't even remember who is heel and who is babyface.

    If Alex had had a heart attack, Eddie Bravo would have been done for manslaughter.

    Have you ever heard of the saying "sunshine is the best disinfectant"?

    You also can't be held accountable for other people's words, that is a very dangerous game to play.

    Name one other podcast that has the same breath of topics and views as Rogan's?

    Ben Shapiro can be tough work sometimes. His opinions are at odds with modern society. He believes in abstinence before marriage, believes single-motherhood is a choice and is against abortion.

    While I disagree with him on those points he clearly states they are just his personal opinions and he has no interest in telling others how to live their lives.

    The problem arises when people try to force their morals on others. I think it's good to listen to someone whom you may disagree with on a personal level and still have a conversation with them.

    It was also one of the more light-hearted conversations I've heard with Shapiro. I especially liked how Rogan was kind of making him laugh uncomfortably by mentioning gay sex so much. I don't think it was premeditated but it was funny.

    Yes he made it clear that those are his personal opinions, yet its worrying that his job is basically to debate and give his opinions on current events. Where does his personal opinions end and his professional(?) opinions start.

    It was a good interview though. Joe rarely asks tough questions and he really pushed a few issues and Ben unsurprisingly dealt with them quite well.

    Perhaps from your world perspective Heidegger is de rigUeur but for many he is an unknown.
    My ambiguous post, as you put it with your verbiage, was precisely that: designed to prompt investigation.
    By all means start with Rogan but for more concise discussions on fringe topics New Thinking Allowed is a gem.
    Granted a link involving Jason Reza Jorjani throws one in at the deep end yet his eminent knowledge is a must and drills down in to the material while Rogan only scraps the surface.
    I do hope your can truly forgive me for my earlier laconic post. I will try to be more succinct in the future ;)

    Listened to the Ben Shapiro one yesterday. I gotta say its interesting. I think its no harm for folks to hear opinions form people you would drastically disagree with.

    I do agree with Joe Rogan on the idea of too many people these days only read and follow the same kinda people they only agree with; and get crazy offended by everything else, outside of their bubble [making no effort to argue or debate].

    Graham Hancock was on yesterday if that takes anyone's fancy.
    Listened to Hancock today. It was entertaining but it kind of turned me off Rogan a little bit.
    He attacks anti-vax, Conspiracy theories and other pseudo-scientific topics whenever his guests agree with him but when Hancock presents theories that go against the the accepted scientific consensus he nods in agreement.


    Hancock says that we blindly accept these truths from authority figures such as archaeological societies and Rogan agrees yet he wants us to accept modern science when it comes to topics he believes in.

    For the record I agree with most of what Rogan believes in and I understand he has to let the guest talk but he should at least be consistent with his views
