    No one entity should be the arbiter of that. But if most people think nazism is bad, then anyone who platforms a Nazi shouldn’t be listened to, laughed off the air even.

    I don’t know what is going wrong (education, perhaps), but the people who support Joe Rogan are (like it or not) supporting recruiting new Nazis.

    I guess what I’m trying to convey is:

    You can listen to whoever you want. But if you defend joe Rogan for platforming everyone, my counter argument is he platforms Nazis and the rest he does kind of doesn’t matter after that.

    But if giving Nazis a platform radicalizes 10 people to become Nazis and 1 to reconsider, then it makes for a lot of Nazi recruitment.

    I like the theory, but in practice it’s dangerous to give seemingly equal platforms to everyone. Some people have views that should be checked at the door.
