> I don't know, it could just be someone realizing it's a big enough problem to act on? Perhaps they didn't realize how pervasive misogynistic or racist content is on the platform but Joe Rogan got a lot of media attention and this new information caused them to act. Seems reasonable to me.

Everything is possible, but I doubt it. How could a musician not be aware of this? Controversy over lyrics isn’t a new thing, even if it has been fading away lately.

> Edit: I also want to know why you think any of these causes are more meaningful than another. Perhaps it's more meaningful to you, but the world doesn't have to live by your standards. The fact that you might hold different levels of meaning than someone else may answer your question.

Your implication that someone talking about nonsensical COVID treatments could be anywhere near as damaging as racism is deeply disturbing.

And don’t forget that this is a podcast that has also featured other comedians like Alex Jones, perhaps you shouldn’t take it seriously?

It seems like you're talking out of both sides of your mouth. You state you aren't trying to invalidate anything, but then you are saying people having different priorities than you are "deeply disturbing." Get over yourself and be honest. Stop trying to imply your just trying to understand when it's clear that's not at all what you are trying to do.

I’m honest. You are drawing a false equivalence between very different things.

I’ll make this very simple for you. What you said was deeply disturbing in the same way as it would be for someone to suggest that theft is worse than murder because of their different priorities.

It is possible for your priorities to suck. Perhaps it’s a matter of opinion, but that’s absolutely meaningless. You could say the same about racism, would that make it better? I don’t think so.
