Joe Rogan's reaction is exactly how everyone reacts when they are dead wrong in this day and age https://t.co/YSOKBGDTvs

The person that tweeted this is so on point. Dissonance is such an uncomfortable thing and we will jump through so many hoops and twist logic so much in order to make ourselves feel better about it. As much shit as I would love to give Rogan for this, he is just acting human.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut, I will give him shit. The reason I will give him shit is because he is responsible for spreading so much misinformation. I know a lot of people that listen to him, which isn't surprising given how large his audience is, and when they act surprised I don't listen to him I just have to say that I want no part of increasing the audience of a man so dead set on providing false information to his listeners. I get that he's curious and I get that he invites people on that may disagree with him, but he isn't as open-minded as people like to think he is.
