    That being said, not every country's tax money is being spent as effectively here. I go to Germany every now and then for business, and it was shocking to me, how in some towns there infrastructure and public transportation is quite mediocre. In the Netherlands, you could go to any town, the...

    I can't say that either haha. Its harder to accept when like me, you haven't had the benefit of a world class education almost for free( i had to pay huge tuition fees as an international student), but at the same time, i can see how it creates a fully functioning society, where at least...

    I'm going to try to be fair here. I think if you're a high achieving person, the ceiling (and potential earning power) is higher in the US, so i can understand the appeal there. For the rest of the 95 percenters, day by day i do not understand the appeal of the US over other (developed)...

    1) There is significant evidence that masks reduce probability of transmission per contact. Vaccines reduce the probability of severe symptoms, also significant evidence. Do we eventually have to learn to live with it? of course. But i don't understand where your views on masks and vaccines come...

    Serious question. Why can't they be deported? I assume they are not coming from war torn places, and actually are citiziens of nearby states.

    Again, that is not whats happening. If Spotify took this decision, you'd be hard pressed to force a private streaming service to air his podcast. I also see nothing wrong with advertisers pulling out, because they dont want to be associated with certain views, or misinformation. But again, in...

    Yes exactly. Which is why doing what you're dping to Rogan is not going to make any difference. People who don't take their advice from evidence are not suddenly going to do so because you censored Rogan.

    Is that really what he did though? If that was his intention, he would just say take my music off spotify, i dont want to be profiting from an organization that profits of misinformation. But he didnt, he gave them a choice between himself and Rogan. I'm guessing he thought they would choose...

    I think they really dont understand what "research" means. Its definitely not googling and reading a few non-scientific non peer-reviewed articles from non-experts.

    and it won't work. Plus so what? He brought on guests that don't agree with the conventional view? There is certainly a lot more tendency from the left to censor people. That just never works, and only fuels this rising tide of post factism.

    I also think trying to censor people like Joe Rogan on Spotify. I don't understand why they have to resort to such tactics. You're making martyrs out of misinformed people, and giving ammo to tinfoil hat consipiracists and pseudo experts.

    Absolutely true. But he's kind of in his area here, isn't he?

    Do you really believe that? I mean, you might not agree with everything he says, criticize him or whatever. But an idiot? Have a quick look at his Google scholar page, and see how much he's been cited. The guy is one of the foremost authorities in immunology. Do you really think the tens if...

    Seriously this historic revisionism where we started to judge historic figures using today's standards is as stupid as can be. Nobody would pass that test. If any of these woke people taking down statues was alive then, they would not have the same views either.
