Hyperbole galore. Why wouldn't his fans defend him when compared to a maniac like Alex Jones? It's a ridiculous comparison to begin with.
Noam Chomsky was a guest on Alex Jone's radio show. That really says it all...
Yeah the Alex Jones stuff seems a bit far, this is maybe where I WILL defend Rogan. Jones is like a fucking nutcase who is openly abusive to his audience and any guests he does manage to get. Not to mention isn't even saying he likes "conspiracy theories cause he's a silly bitch", but actually appears to full on believe crazy to the max.
Honestly, I'd even just say is Alex Jones getting intellects like Thereoux, Sam Harris, Dr. Rhonda Patrick, Brian Cox, De Grasse Tyson and others to repeatedly come back to his show to be interviewed? I don't think so. No one with a shred of dignity would touch Alex Jones, or if they ever have they'd run a mile and accept they made a huge mistake. (Yes I know the argument here is Rogan went on, but that does instantly mean Rogan is Alex Jones anymore than saying any given guest on Rogans podcast is now Joe Rogan? (Damn son, Brian Cox you lovable scientific bastard some on GAF might claim you're now an MRA...). Have a little more use of your crticial thinking faculties than jumping straight to hyperbole to the max.
You can see a full list of his podcast guests here (first Google search that had a list) - https://joeroganreviews.com/ Lets see Alex Jones pull of something anywhere near as reasonable as that. Yes Rogan has had nutty people on, but that is part of his shtick, speaking to anyone. Also as far as I can see Alex Jones has never been on Rogan's podcast.
