A large number of people seem to have only recently discovered this chauvinist pig.

His Twitter feed and YouTube channel are full of hot-takes, intended to shock and trigger people.

He knows exactly what he's doing. He's just another Alex Jones or Joe Rogan. Getting you to share his posts and videos to demonstrate your outrage is his goal and many are falling for it, hook, line, and, sinker.

If you take issue with what he is saying (and I hope you do), please choose to amplify the voices of the women he'd rather be silent. Don't amplify him.

That's not even remotely similar to Joe Rogan though? He has a podcast where he invites a wide variety of guests, and mostly lets them tell their stories without interruption or argument. Sometimes those guests say things people don't like, sometimes Joe himself says things people don't like (eg, alternative medicine for covid), but his controversies are because he's open-minded to a every perspective rather than intentionally shocking.

I think it would be naive to say Joe doesn’t have a specific goal when picking his guests.
