@vivify saidTotally agree. I found Rogan on YouTube when I was looking into Intermittent Fasting and as you say he has a nice easy style. Because of his paleo leanings and red meat is good kind of philosophy plus his mma and stand-up I think his popularity positions him to take on an alternate stance on most things. You have to be a lot of things to many people to become the number 1 podcaster in the world and I think he is more than willing to embrace the rowdy knuckledragging side of things, because frankly that's his base. What Rogan himself actually believes is another thing because there's always enough tongue in cheek/egging on/trolling to remind you that its just a gig, but he's never going to be an out and out shill for the alt right. As you've pointed out, any friend of Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr can't be all that bad.
I like Joe Rogan's podcast and have been listening to him long before the pandemic.

@vivify saidNo, he has a different opinion than you and you think that makes him wrong.

Even government admits A five-day course of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 may reduce the duration of illness.

Is government wrong for having a different opinion than you too? Here is the study proving you wrong. Government posted a study that concluded A five-day course of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 may reduce the duration of illness.
Proof of ivermectin's ineffectiveness against Covid is greatly exaggerated.

Ivermectin as a treatment for Covid has been advised against by medical experts at the CDC, FDA and WHO.
@vivify saidFunny, MB seems to think the FDA is a reliable, authoritative source of information under other circumstances.

Reports of Severe Illness Associated with Use of Products Containing Ivermectin to Prevent or Treat COVID-19
Clinical trials and observational studies to evaluate the use of ivermectin to prevent and treat COVID-19
in humans have yielded insufficient evidence for the NIH COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel to recommend its use.

Why You Should Not Use Ivermectin to Treat or Prevent COVID-19
@vivify saidThe WHO praised ivermectin on their website and this is the page, but it redirects you to another that says they revamped their website. You can see it for a second though. Nothing but praise for this very safe and life saving drug.
While we're at it, let's throw the WHO in there too:
https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/WHO-2019-nCoV-therapeutics-2022.1
"recommendation not to use ivermectin in patients with COVID-19 except in the context of a clinical trial "
https://www.who.int/home/cms-decommissioning
@metal-brain saidRead the link. It's title literally says "why you should not use ivermectin to treat" Covid. The article will explain why.
Just why do they say not to use it? It is not because it is not safe, so why?
