Earlier quoted context omitted.

Science is based on observations, an observation isn't science. That article was taking one data point, assuming the same thing was happening everywhere, and decided there was only one possible cause.

Then it's not pseudoscience either. Why so much resistance to an observation if you accept it is as such?

Taking one observation and assuming it applies everywhere with one possible cause is pseudoscience. If the article just said "we've seen a lot of suicides, here's how to get help" I would have no problems with it.

haha, he is a democrat and had ton of dem candidates on his show. Just because he thinks biden is an awful candidate doesn't make him trump fan. Not every decision trump or his administration does is bad. That's a fact. Is he a manchild only interested in himself? Absolutely but, If trump says 2+2=4 are you going to argue with that? Does agreeing that 2+2=4 makes you trump supporter?

Than why are almost all his recent shows about how Trump is right, or how the media is attacking Trump. The media has a "right" to attack Trump for blatantly lying. Do you even listen to his shows?

He is giving trump dues when they are due.

I have seen some of those questions trying to get tramp to fail for some quick news.

Those attempts are as childish as trump is. And it doesnt belong to journalism.

Uhhm... he also said trump was right to close the border with china and eu at the start of pandemic and that he was called rasist for it. He was right though, that was the right move. Whatever the motivation, restricting frivolous travel is a way to go to fight pandemics.

He laughed at some joke tweets.

I cant recall anything else apart from that.

Look he is a democrat by believes, he wants tulsi gabbard to be the president.

> Do you even listen to his shows?

this is not reddit, cut this out or get out.

A few of the YouTubers I follow are desperately trying to move their fan base off of YT, just to make themselves more immune to the capricious whims of YT (one of them got banned temporarily for “impersonating” themselves). It’s kind of fascinating seeing podcasters give up the kind of freedom that YT producers would kill for.

I think Peertube is the way to go, especially after this https://sourcehut.org/blog/2020-05-15-peertube-bootstrap-fun..., if only someone could drag content producers to choose freedom instead of walled gardens...

As an avid podcast listener and casual Joe Rogan listener I can tell you that I’m probably done listening after the transition. I’m not ever going to use Spotify to listen to podcasts. Podcasts were, and should continue to be, a free RSS feed which made them great. I’m not going to help destroy that great freedom.

I don't think of Spotify as completely walled. Does the free version put ads in the middle of a podcast or only inbetween tracks?

Spotify literally does not work is some countries.

You make it sound like YouTubers want walled gardens, which is kind of countermanded by the constant complaints YouTubers have about YouTube. I think that YouTubers think they’re stuck with the walled garden more than anything else.

The problem for YouTubers is that their fans are on YouTube, and moving fans from one platform to another is really, really hard.

I’ve also been rather negative on the viability of distributed social media sites, because they’re really hard to explain to non-nerds. Even as someone who understands the theory and goals, dealing with picking an instance and navigating the differences is a hurdle I’m not really interesting in dealing with.
