Can Joe Rogan save free speech? | TheHill

This does not mean that Joe Rogan is the new Thomas Paine or that this small skirmish is a turning point in the war over free speech. Indeed, the campaign continues against Spotify. However, with the explosion of corporate censorship, free speech advocates have begun to look at figures like Rogan as “super survivors,” people who seem to have natural immunities protecting them from an otherwise lethal threat. If we can replicate those economic antibodies, we just might be able to develop a protection against censorship and the cancel culture.

Joe Rogan’s opinions vary from the astute to the completely bonkers. Maybe it’s all that DMT. I think he’s hilarious, stimulating, fearless, profane and above all, entertaining. At the end of the day, the problem with censorship is that it is so deeply, so profoundly boring. Sometimes it will even bore you to death, but the boredom, the boredom, spare me the boredom. Even their calls for Rogan’s silencing are boring. Enough already. I’d say let the poor man be, but he’s rich as God, and I can see why.
