There is a difference between an informed opinion (say differences on tax


policy) and an opinion without any factual basis (the election was unfair).

Surely, you are correct that many people don't have the time or inclination to research certain issues like NIL (don't get me started on that, its amazing what Tony continues to do without significant NIL backup), but that is different than people who are tuned in to the issue and refuse to face facts.

I am not accusing you of supporting Joe Rogan. I think I have listened to one or two of his podcasts, and they were boring to me (maybe I just picked the wrong ones). If other people listen to him and enjoy him, that's fine, but I don't accept that as a valid excuse if he (or anyone else) is spouting demonstrably false information. Again, I don't know enough about him to know if he does that.

I'm not saying I can change minds, I'm just saying I am not going to avoid calling bullshit on stuff because it differs with other people's opinions, especially if I think those are uniformed opinions. No safe space here, and of course, everyone else has the right to call bullshit on me.
