You completely ignored my point. Elon has taken zero part in the "American Dream" he has only taken advantage of American capitalism.

Do you not understand the difference between "having" $100,000 and being able to "play with" $100,000? Success in this country is based on the ratio of how many people you're willing to screw over with how good you look to the public/customers.

I don't understand how you or anyone else doesn't see that, but keep sucking Elon's peepee, I'm sure it'll get you far.

Do you not understand that once you have certain amount of money to play with, I think it used to be $100,000, becoming a millionaire becomes significantly easier. Elon has taken zero part in the "American Dream".

His family ownes an emerald mine in South Africa. Where does that fall into the American dream?

Edited for people who like ignoring points.

I never heard "born rich" as part of the American dream. The idea behind the American dream is that you COULD become as wealthy as Elon, starting from nothing. Not only is that not true for him, but that hasn't been true about any billionaire.

Why would that be a war crime if the Hellfire R9X isn't?

I don't think so, Chile is 2,653 miles long, north to south. I can't get an exact distance from the Canadian coast to the Spanish coast, but the distances that are available from Spain to closer to the center of Canada suggest it would at the very least, be really close

Oh, you still think ivermectin is only for horses?

So you're telling me she asked to be on? And then what happened?

In people lol all I said was that ivermectin wasn't just for horses😂

Parasites and other parasite related symptoms in humans

Edit: someone went and down voted all my comments I've ever posted😂😂 I encourage the rest of you to do the same! It really bothers me and I'll think about it to my grave

Well, if her people asked for her to be on his show but they had to fly him out and it had to be an hour, and he said no, that she had to go there, like trump, then they declined. That isn't, in any way the same as her declining to be on his show. Or are you saying you think rogan is lying? If that's the case I have no argument but I'd question your reasons.

News outlets are the reason Rogan is taken seriously. Everything you said isn't wrong, but it's ignoring the differences between how "the media" treats Joe Rogan and how it treated other "comedic" figures before him. CNN and just about everyone else, except (maybe) PBS, talked about that bald clown like he was a force to be reconned with.

It doesn't matter if people actually watched those news segments. People heard about it because, even though they don't get views, the major news networks still hold more weight than independent media.

Would you know who Joe Rogan is if you weren't already listening to his podcast and he never came up in the news? 5 years before COVID, he was just "the guy from fear factor" for me.

I'm not suggesting anyone ignore him, I'm suggesting people stop talking about him the way they are. There should be articles about fact checking him without attacking, so his viewers can go to it without feeling bad about watching/listening, not about how important his podcast is. If they weren't attacking him and instead just fact corrected him in a sort of "by the way" kind of way, this election and COVID would have been a lot different. It's still possible to do that now.

Edit: fixed an autocorrect I noticed
