Current Events > Joe Rogan needs to be deplatformed

(+) Yeah! (+)

It'd be a lot better if he brought on actual experts to discuss the risks, benefits, alternatives, and projections when he brings on individuals with fringe experience. We have people in this topic who watch Rogan, and because of their preconceived notions, are willing to buy into whatever a self-proclaimed expert says because the snake oil lines up with their narrative. Unfortunately, people who listen in on these kinds of things lack any understanding of research, medicine, appraisal of data, etc. and Rogan tends to throw away his journalistic integrity for the sake of exploring his own personal curiosities. So many people walk away from these types of things going "Hmmm", and there really needs to be a disclaimer and prominent reminder that this is not currently accepted science and is pure conjecture.

Because this is the same dude that's on fraudulant Ivermectin papers?

"well this one guy says what i want to hear, so i'll trust him over the other 99 experts"

Which papers?

AFAIK he and four others, resigned from a board because an Ivermectin paper was removed. They didn't write the papers

Yes, that's my bad. He's pushed ivermectin and stepped down from an editor position because it was outrageous that a fradulant paper on ivermectin was retracted.

The scientific process requires fair, open, and transparent peer review to proceed effectively and efficiently particularly at this time and for this topic. The actions of Frontiers in this matter clearly violate well established norms and processes for peer review and publication of scientific works and intellectual contributions, and instead have substituted a unilateral, arbitrary, and capricious process. On behalf of our peers, our institutions, and our scientific and medical colleagues we cannot allow this precedent to remain unchallenged. In our opinion, these unfortunate events constitute gross editorial misconduct by Frontiers.

They said why they resigned in the paper:

Poor joe rogaine is just trying to make a buck guys. Leave him alone he doesnt bother you at your jobs

Instead of deplatforming how about you just behave like a rational adult and just simply not listen to his podcast?

Which is a wordy statement to say "we disagree with [this particular] editorial retraction". Editorial retractions happen all the time.

Not in scientific journals.

Yes, as it turns out.

So then, just because the paper was retracted, it doesn't necessarily mean that there was anything wrong with the paper. It just means that the editor removed it for arbitrary reasons, because the editor has that power.

Hey that's exactly the problem that Malone and 3 others had with the retraction. It all comes full circle.

When a paper gets retracted like that, it's because other scientists write responses and letters to the editor requesting retraction.

Even when there's other studies that prove it incorrect, you don't leave misinformation published in a journal.

That's not how science works

But that's not what happened in this case. It's not merely the retraction that caused them to leave, it was how it was retracted, and it was retracted in a very unscientific manner, they claim.

Lol, you have no idea who idea how science works.

Oh ok let's take them at their word then.

When bunk science is published, it's guaranteed to be retracted.

Even when there's other studies that prove it incorrect, you don't leave misinformation published in a journal.

except there were no studies to prove it incorrect

lmfao at the alt-lefties ITT buttmad to the point they want to silence anyone with a differing opinion or facts.

why is it always all or nothing with these people? oh, shutting him down will end the misinformation! oh, getting the vaccine will end the pandemic! like gee, no it wont at this point. it's about the total elimination of free speech, minimizing the opportunities for this type of system to ever be tried again.

Sounds like you need to have her sign a postnup then throw away the whole wife.

Freedom of speech doesn't include FRAUD, which is what these people are doing: lying or being extremely negligent for personal profit.

Funny how women are disposable once they have the wrong opinions

Who knows more, the guy who has interviewed hundreds of scientists and knowledgeable people in several fields and always questing for new information, or the CE woke mob who get all of their news and info from biased, liberal owned shill sources?
