Feeling that a platform invests in or promotes dangerous or harmful content is a totally valid reason to want to use that platform less, or to stop giving them money. Really super strange that you don’t immediately see that.



Please show me where Rogan promotes "dangerous or harmful content". Also show how mere information can be harmful. Reading "Mein Kampf" won't turn me into a Nazi, but it might make me understand Nazism better.

Any scenario where critical context is left out, like "some vaccines contain mercury, a deadly neurotoxin!" memes.

There are substantially better ways to understand Nazism than reading Mein Kampf.

Fair rebuttal, although in a population that has been taught how to think critically (not ours, unfortunately), this might be far less of an issue
