TL:DR: Why is not one trying to actively cancel Howard Stern, yet they are killing Joe Rogan, when Stern did worse s*** in 5 minutes than Rogan did in 10 years? Is it cause Stern aligns with the MSM?
Inspired by this post, more specifically, when Ye basically says “we have free speech until we go against the agenda of the media”.
Honestly, Ye MIGHT have a point with this.
The media was recently killing Joe Rogan because of what he said in the past, but this all started because of his Covid conversations right?
NOTE: I AM NOT SAYING WHAT ROGAN DID WAS RIGHT OR HE SHOULDNT BE CALLED OUT ON IT. HE ABSOLUTELY SHOULD CAUSE THAT WAS F***ED UP.
So lets ask, why is no one actively trying to cancel Howard Stern? Howard Stern, among many racist bits, has an absolutely shocking racist bit where him and his co host are in black face, and they ridicule the other host (who was a black woman) using racist terms and words. 100000x worse than what Rogan did (but yes what Rogan did was still disgusting too).
I will NOT post the video because it’s honestly THAT BAD. But if you Google it you will find it.
Now lets look into this, what is the major difference between Stern and Rogan?
Stern supports the MSM stance on Covid, Rogan has conversations that counter it.
Obviously, SOME of the MSM stance is the correct thing to do - get vaxed + boosted, where a mask if and when required, etc. I’m not disputing that
What I am saying though, it is interesting that once you go against MSM, you start to get attacked and people actively try and remove you from all platforms and discussions all together.
At what point does it transfer from trying to do the right thing and deplatform problematic people to a calculated hit job?
It’s almost like the MSM uses social issues to benefit themselves, under the guise of being politically correct.
i’m just saying it’s interesting how they only attack you when you go against mainstream agenda.
rogan = produced alternative covid content
stern = aligns with MSM covid stances
joe still free to say what he wants
free speech aint about freedom from consequences

absolutely correct, and i agree
i’m moreso questioning what’s the differentiating factor between him and Stern, I was listening to a podcast and they played a really nasty racist bit from Stern and it made me think, is it just because Rogan goes off the track from what MSM wants in terms of Covid?
Trying to cancel Stern for his 90’s early 00’s antics is like cancelling the Rock for WWE
“Cancelling” people isn’t a consistent thing. Most people that seriously care about this Rogan thing probably don’t even know who Howard Stern is let alone that he was racist on some random episode in the 90s

No it f***ing isn’t.
Sorry but your tl:DR was tl so I DR.
just joking op I agree w you. But even if they don’t get cancelled, they deserve to at least be called out for their ignorance. racist jokes have never been and will never be funny. Ever.
Because they are trying to take away free speech. They want full submission to their ideologies, if you go against it, they collectively try to take you down, dox, and flag you by tagging it as "hate speech"
Just wanna let you know OP quoting “they” like that in this context is a pretty antisemitic dogwhistle

well that’s definitely not how i meant it, i meant is as Mainstream Media, but i’ll change it cause i don’t want it to come off as that

yeah that’s true i guess time / influence does come into play, and rogan is more influential now.
but i feel like if stern came out and covered covid the way rogan does, he would get these clips resurfaced as well
