I think the vast majority of people attacking Rogan haven’t listened to his show before. To state the obvious, he never should have used the n word before, but it was a mistake. If you listen to the quotes, I don’t think he used it maliciously, just stupidly. And that whole attack does come from some hypocrital places and only seemed to come after the Covid misinformation attacks failed. But I’m ok with the court of public opinion - that is what it is. The public should judge right and wrong.

I’m far more concerned about the suppression of free speech. It’s particularly troubling that the White House was pushing Spotify to censor him. This was similar to the Trump White House trying to punish different media organizations. Free press and free speech should be protected and not under attack from the government. We should not be asked to toe the line. Authoritarianism goes against American values.
